HALLOWEEN STORY

It was a dark and stormy night when we were preparing everything to go out, and we were thinking what to do on Halloween’s Eve last year. I was trying on my new costume and my friends were trying on theirs. My brother was with us but our parents weren’t at home. Outside it was cold and rainy, sometimes a little windy. The sky was very dark and the streets were empty and wet.
We were preparing the Jack-o-lantern, a scary pumpkin, the make-up… when suddenly the light went off. We heard footsteps in the kitchen and upstairs. The door of the living room closed and it creaked.
In the twinkling of an eye all my friends hid behind the sofa and began to scream. We didn’t know what it was. Then, a head of a werewolf and another of a dracula appeared from the corridor. We were frightened.
I said to them: “PLEASE, DON’T HURT US, GO OUT, LEAVE HOME!”. They were approaching us slowly, with evil looks.
In some seconds one friend noticed the monsters were wearing trainers, and she said it. Then, these characters took off the masks, the false fangs, and laughed. We recognized them. They were my brother’s friends! We told them off for doing that horrible thing, but it was Halloween and we didn’t get angry. We went for trick-or-treating together and we had fun.

DAILY LIFE

My name's Marta and I'm forteen years old. I am tall, thin and I've got dark hair. I have brown eyes. I live in Berga, with my family in a flat. I go to high school every day, but I don't know what I want to be in the future.

I'm very active. I like doing activities, learning about everything... but I also like resting on the sofa, watching TV, and sleeping until late.
My daily routine is a bit different each day. First, I get up at half past seven and I have a shower. I have breakfast, put on my clothes, take the bag and with some neighbour friends we go to school together. Then, in the evenings, I go to music and English classes, I go to play basketball...

On my free time, I spend some of this doing homework but when I haven't got any I also do hobbies, like walking or running in the nature, playing computer and going out with friends. In winter I ski; I love it! In summer I like running through the beach. I like going shopping, too.
