It was sunny today. My plastic model arrived this morning. After school, I rushed home. On the heels of that, I kicked off my shoes, I hurried into my room, and started to assemble it. [When one "storms" somewhere, she does so angrily. One "storms off", and it means he leaves angrily.] It's good that it was "snap-fit" and all the parts came separated by color. Technically, I used a little help from my dad. He helped me deburr [I didn't even know the word "deburr". :) It might be unusual technical jargon. Perhaps rephrase so more people will understand? Perhaps, "smooth the edges of it"?] a few precision parts and gingerly cut off some extremely fragile parts, which I wouldn’t dare to cut. Still, I could roughly/almost say that I did the whole job on my own. All in all, it was a success, and my dad was happy that I’d become capable of building precision models.
