Today is Sunday. I had been studying all day long. On the morning， I had a dry breakfast. I had no water to drink because the water supply had cut off. The water came back in the evening. I did math exercises then. I didnt stop after 12 oclock. After the short lunch I had a break. Then I went to my Sunday English Class. After a long and tired class for more than two hours， I got home. Then I must review all my subject such as the Sciences， the Humanities which they include Chinese， English， Politics and History as well. Thats terribly， especially when there were no water.
