TRUE STORIES
Last month, we asked you for mistakes you made at
school or work and what you learned from them. Here
is this months winning article.
Our school is very good at organising after-school activities.
Last year I went to two clubs, the music club and the drama
club. It was my first year in the music club, which I had for an
hour on Mondays and Wednesdays, and my second year in the drama club, which was an hour and
a half on Tuesdays and Thursdays. _D___ (1) It didnt matter because there wasnt much school work to
do.
In October, they told us about the end of year school play.___G____ (2) I was very excited when I found
out that I was going to play one of the most important parts. Then, in November, the music teacher asked
me to play the piano in the end of year concert. I was surprised because my piano playing isnt very good.
He wanted everyone to be in it, though, good and bad.
Everything was fine before Christmas because I did a lot of school work at the weekend. ___F_____ (3)
Then, in January, I went to a friends birthday party and met a girl called Heather. We started talking and
I asked her out. After that, I didnt have any free Fridays or Saturdays because I was with Heather. I was
still OK, though. I stopped watching TV and only switched on my computer once a week.
That was my life until April but then everything started happening at once. The drama teacher wanted me
to come to an extra practice on Fridays, the music teacher gave me lots of tunes to practise at home over
the weekend and Heather wanted to meet up for walks on Sundays because the weather was getting
nicer. In addition, our teachers started talking more and more about the end of year exams. We got more
homework and tests every week to see how much we could remember. I usually have a good memory
but I was trying to memorise my words in the play as well. My test marks were really bad and my parents
were worried so they told me I should stop seeing Heather for a while. ____A____ (4)
In the end, Heather left me, I failed my exams and the music teacher said that I wasnt good enough to
be in the concert. The play went well, though, although I nearly fell asleep in the middle of it.
__C__ (5) Not to try to do so many things at one time!
