at school. On the way home, I decided to buy shampoo since mine already run out. I practice football
three times a week and I always wash my hair after I practice. I decided to buy shampoo from a
supermarket. There was a sale at that time. They offered discounts for many items. They also gave
discounts for shampoo and jam. Therefore, I decided to buy chocolate jam so I could eat bread with it
after shower.
On my arrival at home, I was ready to go shower when my mother suddenly asked me to be quick since
we were going to my mother’s friend’s party. Without thinking, I immediately went to the bathroom. The
