Writing exercise

Edited version:

I went to theĀ Game Center with friendsĀ on Sunday afternoon. ItĀ is near Peoples square station. It was my second time I went/to go there. I can get stuffed toys much more easilyĀ there. I tried to do it in other Game Centers, but I never got them and it was really sad when I saw other people get them.
We got 160 tokens thatĀ costsĀ two hundred RMB, we bought them online and exchanged them in machine. We wanted to catch one toy called ā€˜pink popping tigerā€™,Ā Ā on the 7th time we got one. Then we tried to winĀ the toy called ā€˜pink mini tigerā€™. They are really really cute, we tried several times but we didnā€™t get one.
We played one game called ā€˜gun playā€™, weĀ only got two guns so we couldnā€™t all play/so two of us had to watch.Ā I felt it was funny and interesting, even though I was losing again and again. After this one we tried a 3DĀ car racing game and it was really awesome thatĀ it felt realĀ with voice and action. I was excited and feltĀ truely in car game. My friends tried motorcycle racing and dancing games, they did good and we were happy. Finally, we got three toysĀ but I didnā€™t take them and gave them to my friends. Such a wonderful day and I hope we will find some new interesting things to do next time when we meet.

eg: We need to refixture everything on that wall.
2. outfit / the outfit layer ā€“ this means a set of clothes that are worn together

eg: He is wearing a crazy outfit for swimming. He has jeans and a button up shirt with a tie

3. Stockman (Discuss in next class) – should be: the people who put the products on the shelves in the store.

eg: We need to finish the design before they show up to stock (v.) the new products.

4. Reference ā€“ this means to talk about something else that is relevant to your discussion

eg: He referenced Jackie Chan in his speech.

eg: It’s hard to understand English if it is a cultural reference. Because you need to know the culture to understand what they are talking about. Like, if I say, that guy is a worse actor than Jackie Chan. (You need to know who Jackie Chan is, because I referenced him, and my meaning can only be understood if you know him.)
