Let me tell you that today was really a day full of unexpected events.
I was very tired yesterday, so this morning I got up late. I was feeling sick, that’s why I missed the tram that I often take. I had to take the next one which came in about 7 minutes.
I arrived at my internship and started working.

After work I’ve chatted on the phone with a friend. Then I went to the cinema to see if there was a movie I could watch in the evening, just to relax a bit. But there was nothing interesting. So I waited for my tram, then I went home to my host family.
There was no one present. As soon as I decided to do a task that I hadn’t yet done, I received messages from friends, one from someone who asked me to join them at a bar for karaoke.
I accepted but at the same time my host family came back and the woman asks me to eat with them.
It was hard so refuse because the food was already done. I finally cancelled the date with the others.
