Speaking exercise

Tell me about your morning

This morning, I woke up at 10:30. Today I didn’t go to my company because my work today starts at night / my work will start later tonight. So I was just having a rest in the home with my cat. I had lunch at 1 o’clock. I didn’t do anything else today.

Tell me about tonight

I will go to the store later and start my work. Today we need to install some features in our store window. And we need to adjust the consumer journey in our store because we have a new campaign starting next month.
