Jay’s pencil case
Hi, there. Recently, my pencil case began to fall apart. I had already been using it for over three years, so I wasn’t surprised to see it starting to break.
However, I was disappointed that I had lost the new red marker that Mom had bought for me. It had fallen out because there was a hole at the bottom of the pencil case. Luckily, nothing else fell out. I would have been really upset if I had lost my favorite blue pen.
My friend, Mary, suggested that I get a new pencil case. Therefore, this afternoon, I went to the supermarket to get a new one. I am very pleased with my new pencil case. It’s long enough to fit a ruler in it, and it has a special place to put whiteout and glue.
I can’t wait to show Mary tomorrow!
