This summer has been wonderful. In three months I have changed a lot for the better. My English got better and I started playing sports. These are really important things for me. I also learned a lot of new songs thanks to the phone transfer.
It was a great time, but unfortunately it ended very quickly. In June, we were all happy about the start of the holidays. In July, I went out with friends and played games. In August, I had to read the bibliography and select topics that I did not understand last year. Now September has come, and I remember my summer with a smile, although now there are pluses in studying. We often see classmates, and I'm happy about that. This is where I want to end my story about the summer.
