Sometimes I hate computers! Once, when I 1. was trying to do my English homework on my laptop, the battery 2. ran out. I 3. was lying on my bed and I was listening to music on Spotify. It helps me to concentrate. I 4. was also chatting to my friend Daniel on Facebook. OK, so I 5. was not concentrating very hard on my homework and I 6. forgot to plug in my laptop! I didn’t notice that the battery was getting low. I was just finishing the essay when the screen 7. went black. I 8. lost everything. I 9. screamed in frustration. My dad 10. came running into my bedroom. I 11. almost cried ("was almost crying" is also possible but much less common) so he 12. gave me his laptop. I 13. tried to remember everything in my essay – it 14. was quite difficult especially because Daniel was sending me lots of funny videos. Anyway, while I was watching one, the WiFi stopped working. In the end it was probably better because I 15. managed to finish the essay.
