Tom's Terrible Weekend

I had a terrible weekend! On Saturday morning, I woke up early because I had to finish my history project. I studied all day and typed my homework on the computer. When I finished it at 8 p.m., I wanted to print it out but there was a problem with the printer. First, I changed the cartridge but it didn’t work so I went out to an internet café to print it. It was so late that I had to walk for more than half an hour to find a café to print out my homework. Finally, I got it printed but this time it started raining. It rained so much that I was completely wet through. When I came home, I realized that my keys were not in my pocket. I forgot them in my room. There wasn’t anyone at home so I knocked our neighbour’s door because my parents were at the cinema so I waited at my neighbour’s house for an hour for them to come back. When they came back, it was around 11 p.m. I changed my clothes and went directly to bed.

I was so tired that I slept all morning on Sunday. When I woke up I had a terrible cold. Also, my throat was sore. My body ached all over. My nose ran and I coughed a lot but I did not have a fever. My mother prepared breakfast for me but I didn’t want to eat. I only drank some orange juice. Then I slept again. When my mother woke me up, it was 2 p.m. She brought some soup for lunch and I ate it in bed. After that, I tried to read a book but I couldn’t keep my eyes open. I lay in bed all afternoon. I felt miserable all day and I didn’t want to do anything. I felt a bit better in the evening. My parents ordered pizza so I had dinner with them. Then I got my blanket and watched some TV on the couch with my parents. I fell asleep in front of the TV.
