Eight-year-old Xiao Mei lives for Fridays: no tests, swimming with Xiao Hong, and pizza for dinner. But can one perfect day last?
我叫小美，今年八岁了。妈妈问我：“今天你和谁去学校？”我说：“和我的朋友小红！”今天是星期五，我很开心！
My name is Xiao Mei, and I'm eight years old this year. Mom asked me: "Who are you going to school with today?" I said: "With my friend Xiao Hong!" Today is Friday, and I'm so happy!
学校里有老师和同学。今天没有考试！我和小红都很高兴。
At school there are teachers and classmates. There's no test today! Xiao Hong and I are both really happy.
三点，我和小红去了游泳池。水里有很多球，我们一起游泳，太好玩了！
At three o'clock, Xiao Hong and I went to the swimming pool. There were lots of balls in the water. We swam together, and it was so much fun!
六点，我们在我家吃饭。桌子上有比萨和果汁。小红说：“没有蔬菜，太好了！”我们都笑了。
At six o'clock, we had dinner at my house. There was pizza and juice on the table. Xiao Hong said: "No vegetables, great!" We both laughed.
晚上，我在床上想：“下个星期五，我们也去游泳，吃比萨！”我睡觉了。
At night, lying in bed, I thought: "Next Friday, let's go swimming and eat pizza again!" Then I fell asleep.
