I am Jim. October 18th is my birthday, so it is my favourite day. I am very happy on that day. I eat eggs and noodles for breakfast. My friends come to my home and play with me. We sing songs and dance together. Someone plays the piano and someone plays the guitar. My parents cook delicious food for lunch. We can have fish, meat and vegetables for the main course and a sweet chocolate cake for dessert. After lunch, my friends and I play outdoors. After supper, my parents and I watch TV. Then I go to bed at nine thirty. I don’t do my homework on that day. I am very tired but happy on my birthday.
