I was chosen as the class representative for a presentation, and I feel very nervous about it. The presentation is tomorrow, so I am feeling a lot of pressure now. I did not choose this role by myself, but I have to accept it and do my best. Standing in front of many people and speaking in English is very difficult for me. I am afraid of making mistakes or forgetting what I want to say. Because the presentation is so close, I feel tired and worried. I keep thinking about it at home and before I sleep. Sometimes my heart beats fast when I imagine standing in front of the class. However, I try to think in a positive way. I am not giving the presentation alone. I will present it with my group members. They are very kind and friendly, and they always help me. We practiced together many times after school. When someone made a mistake, we helped each other and laughed together. Because of them, I feel a little more confident. Even if I make a small mistake tomorrow, I know my group members will support me. I want to do my best for my group and my class. This presentation is hard, but it is also a good chance for me to grow. I will try my best tomorrow and finish the presentation with a smile.

Last week, I went to Osaka to watch live concert. It was so special and memorial one. The concert was held in Kyosera Dome Osaka. It was a little bit far from Shin-Osaka station, but I enjoyed Osaka's famous foods before arrived there. My trip was 3 days. First, I ate takoyaki at Shinsaibashi. There was metropolis. Osaka's takoyaki is cheaper than around Tokyo's one. I was surprised about the price. Next, I enjoyed kushikatsu. It is fried foods on skewers. It was also very delicious. I ate it after concert, so I went to kushikatus restaurant with my friend. The kushikatsu was delicious, but the most delicious one was beer. I think that is a miracle cure for my tired body. Of course, concert was very very great. I enjoyed talking with fans who came to the same concert. I said, "I want to listen the most favorite song by special members.", It was came true! I was so excited I thought I was dreaming. I don't believing this fact even now. This year, I took a trip to watch concert for 3 times. Fukuoka, Nagoya, and Osaka. I want to go to some concert in next year too. I'm looking forward to next year's concert.

Are these sentences OK? If you had let me know, things could've been different. If you weren't going to show, you could at least let me know. You should have at least let me know you would be late.
