UNIT 13: Saturday Morning

Saturday Morning

Last Saturday morning my buddy and I went to the skateboard arena. But when we got there, it was already too busy. There were too many skaters and there wasn't enough space. It was also very hot, so, we didn't skate. I told my pal that either we skate or we swim. He had a good video he wanted to watch, so, we ended up doing neither. We went to his house and checked out Matrix 3 until noon. It's a really cool movie. Then we had a very tasty lunch. After that, we were both too tired to think about skating anymore.
