This autumn, my class went to the seaside to go camp. We arrived at a sandy beach with a well view of the sea and mountains. We set up our tents on the sandy beach, when night fell we started a fire to give us light and kept us warm. All my classmates sat around them, talking, singing and laughing. Several hours late, Robert and I went back to the tent to have the chat.
We stayed up all night. We found that we two had a lot in common. For example, we all like the same singers and have great enthusiasm for physics. The fire and stars see our happiness. What I wished time would stop at the moment!
