Monica’s weird day

Monica is an accountant. She works at the Central Bank of Sydney. Today is a weird
day for Monica, it seems like her regular daily routine has changed dramatically.

She usually walks to work but today she is driving because she overslept. Most of
the times she wears a red blouse and a black skirt for work, but today she is
wearing jeans and t-shirt because the washing machine got damaged yesterday.

Although her husband takes the kids to school every day, today Monica is taking
them to school because her husband went to a party last night and got home really
late. She regularly listens to classical music on her way to work, but today she and
her children are listening to reggaeton; they say that classical music is not as
interesting and cool as reggaeton.
Some people may think Monica is not enjoying her day; on the contrary, she ls
doing new things so she is happy about this weird day.

blankets on the balcony, while I’m going up with the coffee, my mom’s taking
a shower and then she brushes her theeth, I go down screaming who’s
