英文小作文:
Horrible Day
Today was a horrible day. I woke up feeling exhausted and my throat was sore. I knew it was going to be a bad day when I couldn"t even swallow properly. After a long and tiring day at work, I came home to find that my dog had chewed through my favorite pair of shoes. It was the last straw and I felt completely defeated. I couldn"t believe how things could go from bad to worse so quickly. But then, life can be horrible sometimes, can"t it? I"m going to try to look on the bright side and focus on the good things in life, like my family and friends who always support me. I know things will get better eventually, as long as I keep going and don"t give up.
