Having a fun day with my friend Harold

On Tuesday, my friend Harold and Auntie Becky came over to my home. We had a fun day.

First, when Harold came over, we ate some jelly my mom made the other day. Then, we went to my clubhouse and played table tennis for an hour.

At first, it was very fun. But after I got used to it, it was boooring ... boooring ... AND ... boring. After that, we went back to my home and I showed Harold how to make 'Pineapple Pizza Bread.' Then we asked each other riddles. I even took out my riddle book. But for now, if you ask me, that is just wrong. Because I don't excactly have the book back. I lent it to Harold.


Next, I took out some games to play. We played Bingo and Chinese Checkers. Before we started to play, we were boasting that how we were sure that we would win. Then I took out my English scrabble. At first, I passed a lot of times. But later, I got lots of chances.


After that, we ate dinner that Tony cooked. It was yummy! (Really, I did not eat much of Tony's pasta. Instead, I ate a lot of spaghetti that my maid cooked)


Finally, we finished the game of scrabble. When I got a triple word, I could see that the excitement on his face had gone away.
I tried to cheer him up. Only finally, something very wonderful happened! I helped him get 24 marks! That seemed to cheer him up. He murmered, "Thank you."


At last, Harold got home. We both had a wonderful day. I will go to his home on August, 5. I hope we will have a fun time.

Dear Gareth,

You must have got your work done properly yesterday, and so you have time to blog again.

Thank you for your invitation and warm hospitality. You know you've shown Harold the beauty of being helpful, and I hope that from now on, he'll act more generously.

He read your first chapter book and admired you so much for you can write long and interesting stories and use many difficult words that he doesn't know.

I am looking forward to meeting you again. Do tell me your favourite food/snacks, I'll try to get them.

See you,
Auntie Becky

Dear Gareth,

Thank you for giving me the Kung fu Panda book and lending me the riddle book.

Wow, there was so much fun. I wish I were there though I didn't know how to play some of the games you have mentioned. Plan ahead your next meeting with your new friend, Harold and most important enjoy the day.

Best wishes,
