MEMORIES Hi everyone! I’m doing practises with writings in past. The next essay is about a girl and her special family. It had to include some comedy and sadness too (just in case you will find something strange, haha). Thanks in advance if you are reading this (and if you want to check it! :-) MEMORIES I’m Margaret. The story I’m going to tell is about my first time in a Zoo. I was about six. I was an only child (now I am an only child too). My parents didn’t get on well and my poor grandfather was always quiet. My aggressive dog which called “Popi” became obsessed with my feet. But that new experience was really exciting for me! - despite all that situation. When I arrived at the Zoo, a photographer was taking pictures to everyone were arriving. My mother loved pictures as she used to photograph everything she saw, but my father hated them. So you can imagine how it started the first argument... Do you want to know how much was that picture? Sorry, I didn't remember it, but it was expensive enough to help starting a row about that. So the day was not completely happy. Do you know why? because finally all of us returned back home, and I couldn't see any wild animal as I wanted. See the scene, I and my family were wearing Sundays clothes and were getting in a car again without having spotted the clothes. END --- Oh, I've forgotten another important part of the story: The next day I went to the Zoo and saw whatever I wanted! Yeah, my family is a bit crazy, but they are sentimental people who likes to show their affection, even though some moments "sweet and sour". 2nd END ---
