I watched an NBA game, which started at 10:30, because I’m a big fan of Huston Rockets who are an American Basketball team with James Hadden and other great players. After that, I went out for lunch because I was hungry so I went to a noodle restaurant which is near my home. I spent 20 minutes on my lunch, and I had beef noodle soup which was yummy and is one of my favorite foods.
