Thursday, 27th May
Today school ended for summer vacation. I had a bit dreadful day because I fell out with my friend for a bit but now we are friends, so I am a happy human. Tomorrow it is mum's birthday. I am so excited as we might go out to dinner.
On Saturday, I am playing a football match. On Wednesday next week, perhaps I may go to cinema with Ayesha to watch Street Dance 3D. I have heard it is good. Another day next week, I might go to my cousin's house for sleep over. Another thing, we have got a project work from our Social Studies teacher. We've been told to collect information on historical and cultural sites of our district. So we are going to request our parents to drop us at the stops next weekends. I think we, the whole class are going together. How interesting!
Friday, 28th May
It's Mum's birthday! We are going to Shani Village Resort to have dinner. I can't tell you how old she is. I am afraid but I can tell you she doesn't look her age. Today, I went to temple early with Mum and dad. We prayed for the long life of mum. The whole day I was excited and thinking of dining at a restaurant. Late afternoon, I watched cricket match between Australia and England. The whole next week, I am planning to enjoy a lot with my family, relatives and friends. Right now, I am excited at the thought of delicious dinner after sometime. Mum's calling me. Sorry diary, see you tomorrow.
