GREAT WEEKEND

(ORIENTATION) had great weekend with my roommate Jess. Last Saturday, we got up early and had a big breakfast. Then we took the bus to go downtown and went to an art museum. The museum opened at nine o’clock and we stayed there all mornings.

          (EVENTS) We saw some beautiful paintings. We had a guide who explained everything to us. I liked all the art, but Jess didn’t like the modern art very much. I bought copies of two paintings. I’m going to put them on the wall of my bedroom.

          (RE-ORIENTATION) At one o’clock, we were hungry so we had lunch at the museum cafeteria. After lunch, we took a walk in the park near the museum. We went home at five o’clock. We were very tired, but we had a good time.
