How-my-parents-met Story

 

Every couple has a story. We’ve all burnished and buffed that moment we first met into the gem it deserves to be. Because without that moment there would be none of the wonder that came next – the love, the home, the children, the family.

 

Write a text about how your parents met. Include the following information:

  • year
  • place
  • fate / bad luck
  • confusions and misconceptions
  • incidents
  • feelings
  • happy ending / sad ending

Check your story for mistakes (grammar, vocabulary, punctuation, an spelling). Your text should have about 200 words.

 

Write a fair copy in MS Word. Use Calibri, 12 pt., 1.5 line spacing. Include your first name, second name, and class in your footer.

We Are the Champions

I've paid my dues
Time after time
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand
Kicked in my face
But I've come through
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the World
I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune
And everything that goes with it
I thank you all
But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before
The human race
And I ain't gonna lose
And we mean to go on and on and on and on
We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the World
We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the World
