IT WAS A DREAM!

Our friend Alejandro wanted to go to a Placebo concert because he liked their music very much.
He asked himself: where can I buy the tickets?
A friend answered him that he could buy them at a shopping centre.
Alejandro needed money, so he worked at "Nueva Condomina" last Saturday because the local team, Real Murcia, played there.
He won enough money to buy the tickets but his parents said: “If you want to go to the concert, you must study more than last week”. So Alejandro studied every day and went to the concert.
That special night, on the way there, he stopped to fill in the tank at the petrol station and, at last, he arrived at the concert.
He was very happy; he smiled and clapped all night. He looked like a little baby and he kissed everybody around.

Ring... Ring... Ring...

“Alejandro, get up! It’s too late, his mother said to him. And he thought: “It was a dream!!, I didn’t go to the concert, I’m at home.

WAY TO FAME!

My dream was to be an important musician. I played the guitar, but I wanted and I needed to learn how to play it very much. I asked my friends: "What do I have to do?" And they answered me: "Study in the conservatoire!".
I worked eight hours every day, I had a difficult time, but I liked it very much and I didn't stop until I achieved my dream.
Last Saturday I gave my first concert. The theatre was full. I was nervous, but then I looked at my teacher and she smiled at me.
Finally, everybody clapped me and my teacher kissed me very excited.
This is the beginning of a big musical career!

WAS IT A DREAM?

This story happened last summer, when three female friends travelled to Puerto Rico.
They studied at the university together and they didn’t work.
They wanted to enjoy the beach for some days.
When the plane landed they smiled a lot, but when they needed their baggages, they stopped smiling and asked: "Where are our baggages?"
They didn’t like this incident at all.
Then they approached the information desk, and the woman answered that their baggages were there!
The three friends clapped their hands, and they kissed that woman and all the people who were at the airport.

When they arrived at the beach they remembered their story and played on the sand.
At night they went to the hotel to dance and drink until dawn.
The next morning they didn’t remember anything.
¿Was it a dream?

Last year I was on holiday in London.I visited that city to study English. I asked my friend: “How much time do I need to learn English?”. He answered: “Don’t worry, you only need some months”.

He played in a football team and worked in a shopping centre, so he introduced me to his boss. Then, his boss smiled and hired me. I was very happy and lucky. I liked the job, it was very funny and interesting. Everybody clapped me on the back and wanted to kiss me. I was a very cheerful clown.
