This year has been a really exciting year for my family It all started at/in/on spring with my older sister’s wedding That day was pretty hilarious because our grandad had drunk too much and decided to sing a golden-oldie half naked in front of all the guests My sister was mortified but she has no sense of humour anyways. A few months later I had to take my GCSEs I was so nervous but my dad had promised to get me a car if
I got all As in every subject I thought that was quite a good incentive since I was going to take my driving test at/in/on a few weeks Thankfully I aced everything, which was such a huge relief because at/in/on the day of my maths exam I came at/in/on 30 minutes late and had to grovel and beg the Head of Maths to let me into the exam hall and take the test The scrouge finally agreed but said I would have to finish it in the time remaining on the clock I came at/in/on 1:30 and the exam lasted an hour and a half so I had just under an hour to prove I was a maths genius and was worthy of my fantastic new Mini Cooper My kid brother also had a pretty decent school year His primay school football team won both the
regional and national tournaments At/In/On the day of the national finals his team won a free kick and my brother scored the winning goal This led him to be awarded the Player of Year trophy at/in/on the 22nd May This summer my family’s planning to go to Kenya for our summer holidays This will be the trip of a life time since we’re going on a guided safari tour and visiting Mt Kilamanjaro It’s it bit sad that we’re going to have to cut it shorter than we’re used to, but my dad can’t get away from work for too long since his promotion at/in/on Valentine’s Day I’m not that sad though, if this year’s anything to go by, I’m certain next year has much better things in store for us
