1. I took the SAT a few months ago, and luckily I got a good
score, so I’m going to study psychology at New York
University. Classes start in September. 2. It’s Sunday tomorrow, so I’m gonna see the game with my
son. Chicago’s playing St. Louis. It’ll be a great game. It starts
at 3 o’ clock, so we’ll have a little lunch before the game.
3. Marie’s having a baby soon, so we’re both very excited. The
baby’s due in five weeks. If it’s a boy, we’re going to call him
Jamie. And if it’s a girl, she’ll be Heather. 4. What am I doing tomorrow, you say? Well, it’s Thursday
tomorrow, so I’ll be doing what I always do on a Thursday.
My daughter will come to see me, she’ll be bringing the little
ones, and we’ll all have a cup of tea and a good old chat.
And I’ll bake some cookies. They like that.
5. Right now I’m packing because tomorrow I’m going to study
in France for a year. My plane leaves at 10:30. My mom and
dad are taking me to the airport. I have absolutely no idea
how I’m going to carry all this stuff! 6. I play guitar in little coffee shops around town. I write most
of my own songs, and I even have a few fans! In the next
few years I’m going to be a lot more famous. I hope I’ll be
performing in much bigger places. My goal is before I’m 25
I’ll have made an album with all my own songs.
