My Most Unforgettable Day / Мой незабываемый день
My name is Lena. One of the most unforgettable days in my life was last year, when I celebrated my birthday with my friends in nature. We planned a picnic by the lake, not far from the city. In the morning, my best friend picked me up by car, and we bought food and drinks along the way. The weather was perfect: sunny and warm, with a gentle wind. At the lake, we found a quiet place with green grass and trees. We played games, listened to music, and took many photos together. My friends prepared a surprise: they made a big cake and wrote “Happy Birthday, Lena!” on it. We laughed and told funny stories. In the evening, we built a small fire and sang songs as the sun was setting. I felt very happy and lucky to have such wonderful friends. That day showed me that the best things in life are not things, but time spent with people who care about you. Now, when I feel sad or lonely, I remember that happy day and it makes me smile.
