Birthday party Recount
During the holidays I went to my friend's birthday party.
I got a call from his Mother a few days before the party,
to ask if I wanted to come to his party, as he was turning
7 years old. I was happy to go so I agreed. After a few days
passed me, my brothers and my Mum waited for my cousin’s
mother to come and pick us up. My cousins and their mother
were waiting in the car. We were driving for a long time
until we arrived at Chipmunks. As we entered I could hear
people talking as it echoed through the room.

Before we started to play we had to take off our shoes.
There I met my friend and her two cousins. My friend said
that we should create an obstacle course. We were in the
castle and we tried our best to get out of it, but we ended
up on the slide in the castle. Some people were on top of
me. We had to wait for someone to get us out. Some of
us cheated and went down through the door and to the
slide. We went on the slide it was crowded with people.
When we were on top there were so many people there
that we were all squished. Some went on their stomach
and others on their back. Since I wanted to win the race,
I went on my back. While we were running to the finish
line I shouted “It’s not fair that you didn't tell us where
we were going”. She didn't answer instead she kept going.
I thought to myself that she was going to win because she
was the only one who knew where we were going. Went rushed
to the pink slide and back to the start. My friend came
first and I came second. We then went to the castle
where the cake was. We ate our food and I got my baby
brother’s food. He was too little to eat candy. We took
some photos and the birthday boy cut the cake. We went
back to play again.

I had a fun time at the birthday party and in August I’m
going to another party. I enjoyed the party and wish to
go to another birthday party. While I was at the party I got into
trouble because I asked my mother for some money but the game
was broken. Me and my friends spent the money on ice cream.

My mother was speaking to me in Amharic when I asked
her. My mother couldn’t understand me. My friend told me
that I should have asked the people that worked there to
exchange the note for coins. I did that but when I put the
coin in the game, it came back out. We asked the workers
if they could help but they said it was broken. We were
upset but then I saw the ice cream shop. My friend had
two dollars so she asked me for one dollar, I gave
her one dollar. I gave the one dollar I found to her cousin.
We went to a table to eat our ice cream. When my friend’s
brother came and asked for one my friend shared her ice
cream. The other kids also came and wanted an ice cream.
So my cousin and myself shared ours. When my mother
saw me, she asked “Why have you got an ice cream without
asking me?”. I told her that the game did not work.
I still had I great time there and loved playing on the
big slide.When I got home my mother said to me
“Next time don’t spend my money without asking”.
Overall I had a great time at my friend’s birthday
party. It was so much fun going to Chipmunks and burning
off my energy.
