My day Today was a good day. I finally got to watch the Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (I was busy with exams whet the movie was shown in theatres). But for some reason there was no translation for orcs and elves speech in the version I watched. I think in the original english version there is subtitles at this moments, but in the version I watched, I don't understand why, but they were cut off. Anyway, I liked the movie and am looking forward for the third part. I believe it's gonna be great! Tomorrow I'm going to a doctor with my friend, he's got some problems with his throat, then I'm goint to prepare for an exam which I have on this friday. Hope your day is going well too ;)

Question: Which tense should I use when talking about this situation if the service still doesn't work? PrP: The water service has been shut off. PaS: The water service was shut off. PrS: I have the water service shut off. (is it correct?) or else?

A small request #2 This is one more short essay written by my uncle. I would be really grateful if you could check it for mistakes. I live in a flat on the second floor of an apartment complex. It’s got three rooms, a kitchen and a bathroom. My room is in the far right corner of the flat. I use it as a study and a bedroom. There is a lot of technique and furniture in the room. On the right there is a fridge, a sofa, a wardrobe and a TV-set. On the floor is a carpet. In front of the TV-set are two armchairs and a coffee table. I like to sit there in the evenings with a cup of tea, watching a TV-show. On the left there are two beds, a mirror, a dresser, one more wardrobe and my work-table. The table has a lot of drawers where I keep my notes, books, pens and other things. On the table there is a computer, a printer and a lamp. Also there is a lot of posters on the wall. I really like my room and how it looks!
