Past Tense Discussion

Number of replies: 253

Now that you know more about the simple and continuous aspects of past tense, you can use it more confidently to express your ideas in English.

For this discussion, write about ten sentences about something you did last week. This can be an event you attended or something unusual that is not part of your normal routine. When you write your sentences, use the simple past or continuous tense, as needed, and time expressions.

Share your answer and read your classmates' stories. If you wish, reply to your classmates to ask them a question about the stories they shared.


Example:

Last week I went on vacation with my family. We woke up very early to get started. We got on a train and traveled for six hours. When we finally arrived at our hotel, the receptionist was locking the doors. We were shocked! Everything turned out okay, and we checked in successfully. My sister and I strolled every morning while we were there. My parents usually just had breakfast in the room. In the afternoons, we all visited museums and explored the local markets. In the evenings, we spent time together in a park.

Reminder: Before you post your paragraph, check to see if you used the past tense correctly and time expressions.

Last month I went to school for enrollment. I met my friends there, and we had a short conversation. We ranted because we waited there for a very long time for our grades evaluation. But finally we finished early, and we are now enrolled. Me and my friend went to Jollibee, we spend our lunch time there. After that I went home already. I remember the time we went to Gensan Airport to met my Aunt. We went to the mall after that. I bought a skin care and we ate at "Mang Inasal." When we went home, my Aunt pranked my Grandparents.

Last Monday, at this very moment, I was driving to Dehradun with my family. We went to Dehrudun to meet my friend's cousin who lives there. Road to Dehradun was like the formula one track. At one point in time, I was driving my car at above 100 km/h. On my wife's insistance, I reduced the speed to 80. We spent full three days at his house. He and his family were very hospitable and made us feel a lot comfortable. However, not for a moment did we felt that they were formal with us. My kids really had a great time there. All in all, it was an extremely pleasant stay for us.

Last month my husband and I went camping. We planned our trip. But the weather changed very fast. We decided to not go home because we set up a tent and everything else. Then it started raining. We saw very dark clouds and lightning as well. It was very scary. We hid in the tent with our dog that went with us. She was shaking and barking because she did not understand what was outside. Our tent was brand new, waterproof, and very strong. It was our advantage to have it as after some minutes hail started. But we were okay. And now we remember that experience with a smile.

Last week, I went on a trip to Yangon alone. I was on the car for a night and the next day, I arrived in Yangon. I went to my aunt's house first, but she went to market when I was arriving at her home. I called her to inform that I was already in front of her home. When we met, we hugged and after that had dinner together. And I dated with my friends and we spent all day. We had BBQ and we played games. When we were playing games, my sister phoned me to go back home together at night. When my sister and I were in home at night, we had a movie night with snacks and drinks. We watched "6 Underground" movie and had late night conversation together.

Last week, I visited to my grandparents' house with my family. We went there by car, and it took four hours to get there. When we arrived, my grandparents were planting the trees and watering the flowers in the garden. We made a long greeting as we haven't met for three years. After that we had our dinner, and my grandmom made a special dessert for me. It was so delicious, and I ate it while I was surfing the internet. We also visited to the supermarkets, bought some snacks and wine to have a party. At the party time, we enjoyed our foods, we sang the songs together and my brother played the guitar for us. We really had a great time there and we came back to our town.

Last week, I attended my doctorate graduation ceremony. I was a funny feeling since with me during the occasion was my daughter, which made me feel like I was still in my kindergarten years. It reminded me of my graduation when I was still young and my parents were the ones feeling more excited than I was. It made me realized that I am not getting any younger and so they are. There was a mixture of emotions that I cannot fathom and I know that time is running fast. I have to do what I've got to do now to let the people around me feel that I value them. I value them more than my accomplishments in my educational journey. I know it is not yet too late, so I have to remind myself to act fast, ACT NOW. Live and love all the way.

Last week, I attended a live music concert with my friends. It was on Friday evening at a local park. We had been looking forward to it for weeks. When we arrived, the sun was setting, and there was a lively atmosphere all around. The band was already performing when we got there, and they sounded amazing. We found a good spot on the grass and sat down with our snacks. The crowd was dancing and singing along, and I couldn't help but join in. As the night went on, the lights around the stage illuminated the area beautifully. We stayed until the concert ended, and the experience was truly unforgettable. We all agreed that we should attend more concerts together in the future. By the time we left, it was quite late, but the excitement of the night kept us energised on the way home.

Question for Classmates:
Did you have a chance to attend any events or concerts recently that left a strong impression on you?

Last week, I had the opportunity to participate in a virtual conference on artificial intelligence. The event took place over two days, and it was truly informative. I joined various webinars and workshops, engaging with experts in the field. On the first day, I attended a panel discussion about the ethical implications of AI technologies. It was fascinating to hear different perspectives on the topic.

During the conference, I also took part in a live coding session, where a software engineer demonstrated the process of creating a simple chatbot. The interactive nature of the session made it easy to follow along and learn. Additionally, I joined a networking session where I virtually met fellow enthusiasts interested in AI.

On the second day, there was a keynote speech by a renowned AI researcher. Their insights into the future of AI and its potential applications were truly thought-provoking. Between sessions, I had the chance to explore virtual booths showcasing AI products and services.

By the end of the conference, I had gained a deeper understanding of current AI trends and advancements. Attending this event was an enriching experience that expanded my knowledge and allowed me to connect with others who share a similar interest.

Last July, my friends visited me. We made many plans on how to fill our holidays and finally decided to visit a local bee farm and learn everything we needed to know about bees and honey. We learned so much from the bee farmer, especially about honey production. He explained how bees collect nectar from flowers and transform it into honey.
By the way, do you know what is a beehive? Basically, it's a wooden box for bee housing. Each box contains frames that hold the comb where bees store honey.
At the end of the visit, we agreed to put our knowledge into practice and with every luck, try and produce our own honey. fingers crossed.

Last week, I had a rather unusual experience. On Thursday evening, I was sitting at home, watching TV, when I received a call from an old friend I hadn't seen in years. She said she was in town for a business meeting and wanted to catch up. I immediately agreed and told her to come over to my place. As I waited for her, I started reminiscing about our college days and all the fun we used to have.

When she arrived, we couldn't stop talking and laughing. We shared stories about our past adventures, and it felt like no time had passed at all. We decided to go out for dinner at our favorite restaurant from back in the day. As we walked there, I couldn't help but notice how much the neighborhood had changed. New shops and buildings had replaced the old ones we used to frequent.

During dinner, we ordered our favorite dishes and reminisced about the delicious meals we used to enjoy at this very place. It was a nostalgic evening filled with laughter and good food. We promised to stay in touch and not let so many years pass before seeing each other again.

After we said our goodbyes, I returned home, feeling grateful for the unexpected reunion. It was a wonderful reminder of the importance of staying connected with old friends, even when life takes us in different directions.

Last week, I spent my time studing English and College Success Courses. I did some of the activities and I was having break in between each sections I was reading. I was studying when my tutees came for class. After I finished with my tutoring classes, I went back reading my courses which I enjoyed reading very well.
On Sunday I went to Church, taught Sunday School kids and after that participated to the service. We sang, we praised and worshiped. I was praying while listening to the preacher. After the Sunday service, I went back home with my friends.
I was cooking when other friends came to visit me. We enjoyed the meal.

Last week I went to the Mall to meet my cousin there. We decided to meet and have a chat about our lives. She told me many things that happened to her. I also told her my experiences in my life connected to her. We walked to the mall and we ate McDonald's. Also, she shared with me how she met this guy from Taiwan. She was very excited that he was here in the Philippines. I was very happy for her. I hoped she found security and happiness. Then we left the mall and went home.

Last week, we had the great opportunity to spend a 4-day weekend. Since everyone is usually busy during the week, such moments are always meaningful to us. So, we make sure there is family time on vacation at home. Together with our wonderful children, my husband and I love making memories. On the first day, we cleaned the house so that we could enjoy a polished and tidy home. After that, we sat down and watched movies as a group. We also did roughhousing with the children. Screams and laughter echo through our house like music to our ears. The next day, I took our children out. We walked, ran, and played with the dogs. The children even helped feed them. Soon after that, we decided to go to the garden to look for interesting insects and other animals. Besides, we enjoyed barbecuing the next day. On top of that, the children also had the opportunity to help their father buy the necessary items from online stores. We wandered around town to see the sights and, of course, ran errands at the end of the 4-day weekend. Therefore, we should always spend quality time with our family.

Last month I searched for multiple jobs so I can finance my review endeavors. I tried various jobs that were related to teaching and clerical jobs. Some schools did not call me because they were not hiring, and few invited me for an interview. It was a good experience to move to the next step in the hiring process just as how scary it was to wait for their call if I were to proceed or not. However, after all the efforts and time exerted, I was unable to land a job due to conflicting schedules of my review and the working hours of the jobs i were able to finish and pass.

Last year, my friends and I wanted to go to Jaffna for a wedding. It was my third time visiting Jaffna, so I knew a little bit about the area. We decided to take a night bus for a smooth journey. The Kandy to Jaffna bus started at 8 p.m. There were lots of people on that bus. Around 1.00 a.m., the bus broke down at Mathvachchi junction. I didn't know what to do. The bus driver said that we could not drive the bus now and that everyone was very scared. It was also midnight. How could we reach my friend's house? Where could we stay at this late hour? We all called our friends to come and pick us up, but it was so far to Jaffna. There were lots of people there, but we did not know anyone. It was a very troubling moment. Luckily, an old auntie near the junction helped us to stay the night at her home. We all stayed there for the night and at 5 a.m. in the morning, we got a bus to Jaffna. We reached my friend's wedding a little late, but it was a very memorable and scary experience with the night travel.

Last week, I embarked on a spontaneous road trip with friends. We decided to explore a nearby national park, and the journey was filled with excitement. We set out early in the morning, enjoying the scenic drive and singing along to our favorite tunes. Upon reaching the park, we hiked along picturesque trails, marveling at the breathtaking views. The weather was perfect, with a gentle breeze and clear skies. We stumbled upon a hidden waterfall, where we took a break to capture some memorable photos. Later in the day, we had a picnic by a serene lake, indulging in delicious homemade sandwiches and snacks. It was a great opportunity to relax, chat, and appreciate the beauty of nature. After our picnic, we rented bicycles and explored more of the park, discovering quaint spots and encountering friendly wildlife. As the sun began to set, we gathered around a campfire, sharing stories and enjoying the warmth. We ended the day stargazing, amazed by the clear night sky and the countless stars above. It was a memorable adventure, and we returned home with a sense of gratitude for the simple joys of life.

1) Last week, on Saturday evening, I attended a live music concert featuring my favorite band at the local amphitheater.
2) As I entered the venue, the crowd was buzzing with excitement, and the stage was set with colorful lights and impressive sound equipment.
3) The band started playing around 8:00 PM, and the atmosphere became electric with the first notes of their hit songs.
4) Throughout the concert, people were dancing and singing along, creating an energetic and unforgettable experience.
5) The lead singer engaged with the audience, sharing anecdotes between songs, which added a personal touch to the performance.
6) My friends and I had managed to secure front-row seats, allowing us to have an up-close and immersive view of the entire show.
7) The concert lasted for about two hours, but it felt like time flew by as we were fully immersed in the music and the vibrant ambiance.
8) After the concert, we decided to grab a late-night snack at a nearby cafe to continue reliving the excitement of the evening.
9) Reflecting on the night, I realized how refreshing it was to break away from the usual routine and indulge in a live music experience.

Last week, I embarked on a hiking trip to a nearby mountain . The morning air greeted me as I started the ascent around 8 a.m. The trail was serenely quiet, with occasional bird chirps echoing through the woods. As I hiked, the landscape unfolded, revealing breathtaking vistas at every turn. By midday, I reached the summit and marveled at the panoramic view stretching for miles. I spent a couple of hours savoring the scenery, snapping photos, and simply relishing the tranquility. As the afternoon waned, I began the descent, taking a different trail to explore more of the area. By early evening, I returned home, feeling invigorated by the day's adventure and the beauty of nature.

Last month I went to school for enrollment. I met my friends there, and we had a short conversation. We ranted because we waited there for a very long time for our grades evaluation. But finally we finished early, and we are now enrolled. Me and my friend went to Jollibee, we spend our lunch time there. After that I went home already. I remember the time we went to Gensan Airport to met my Aunt. We went to the mall after that. I bought a skin care and we ate at "Mang Inasal." When we went home, my Aunt pranked my Grandparents.

Last week we celebrated Christmas. On December 24, everyone was busy wrapping gifts and my mother was busy preparing food for our special Christmas Eve dinner. Before the clock struck 12, we attended the mass and after it ended at 11:30 pm, we were ready to welcome Christmas. We ate a lot of delicious food my mother prepared for us. The gift-giving was the highlight of the night as we gave and exchanged gifts to each other.

Moreover, it was the first academic activity I was doing after almost four years. I was excited. I was happy because it would mean that I can learn without paying extravagant fees. I started the course in the morning. I continued, with several breaks, into the afternoon and early evening. It was nice that my Internet was working so well. I thought that it was a promising start.

Last week, I attended a concert by my favorite band at the local arena. The concert took place on Friday evening, and it was a long-awaited event for me. I arrived at the venue around 7:00 PM and joined the line of excited fans waiting to enter. While waiting, I chatted with fellow fans about our favorite songs and albums. The doors finally opened at 7:30 PM, and I rushed inside to secure a good spot near the stage. The atmosphere was electrifying as the opening act performed, warming up the crowd for the main event. The headlining band took the stage around 9:00 PM, and their performance was nothing short of spectacular. I sang along to every song, danced in the crowd, and felt a rush of excitement throughout the night. The concert ended around 11:00 PM, leaving me with unforgettable memories and a sense of euphoria. I left the venue feeling grateful for the experience and already looking forward to the next concert.

Last week, I participated in the first philharmonic orchestra concert in my school. We were preparing ourselves with the other musicians by the previous week before the concert, in many essay sessions in the week. I felt very proud and nervous, because it was my first time playing my instrument as a soloist. Also, I had to practice, and remember how to play my instrument in a very short time, because I spent almost two or three months without playing it. This concert is very special to me, because it's the first one of the year, and we motivate the minor children to join the music school. It's a new experience for me this year, because I had to get back without many friends that graduated from school, and started university. But also, it's very nice and special for me, because now I'm in my last grade, and I became one of the oldest members in the music school. I really enjoy playing music, and having a good time with my friends doing it.

Last week was quite eventful for me. On Saturday evening, I attended a friend's birthday party, where we danced and indulged in delicious food. Before that, on Saturday morning, my family and I went hiking in the nearby mountains, enjoying a picnic lunch at the summit. The following day, Sunday, I started my morning with a refreshing run in the park, followed by a brunch with friends at a cozy cafe downtown. Later in the afternoon, I decided to visit a local art gallery to explore the latest exhibitions. As the week progressed, I dedicated my time to working on a project for my job and attending several meetings. In the evenings, I relaxed by watching movies or reading. Overall, it was a fulfilling week filled with a mix of social activities, outdoor adventures, and work commitments.

I went to the ticket office to see if I could get refund, I thought it was going to take me hours to explain myself, I even thought that I wouldn't get any refund because I would get tired of explaining myself but not at all... I was lucky, the guy could speak English and he helped me a lot, I was so thankful. After that I went back home and watched an episode of "Law and order" (I'm laughing at myself for saying that because I used to hate that show and the "tantan" music).

We played, we spent the time taking pictures to post something for later. When it's already 5:00pm, we decided to prepare for us to leave. That day was one of the most memorable for me.

Last week, I attended a music concert with some friends. We had been looking forward to it for weeks. On the day of the concert, we met up at the venue around 7:00 p.m. The line to get in was already long when we arrived. While waiting, we chatted excitedly about the bands we were going to see. Finally, the doors opened at 8:00 p.m., and we rushed inside to find good seats. The concert started at 9:00 p.m., and the atmosphere was electric. We danced and sang along to our favorite songs all night. By the time the concert ended at midnight, we were exhausted but exhilarated. After saying goodbye to my friends, I headed home and fell into bed, feeling grateful for such a memorable experience.

I wonder if any of my classmates also attended a concert last week. What bands did you go see?

Last Saturday, I went hiking in the nearby mountains with a group of friends.
We started our hike early in the morning, around 7:00 AM, to avoid the heat later in the day.
As we climbed higher, we enjoyed breathtaking views of the valleys below and the distant peaks.
Along the trail, we encountered various wildlife, including deer, rabbits, and colorful birds.
We took breaks along the way to rest and replenish our energy with snacks and water.
Despite the challenging terrain, we persevered and reached the summit by noon.
At the summit, we celebrated our accomplishment and enjoyed a picnic lunch with stunning panoramic views.
After resting for a while, we began our descent, taking a different trail to explore more of the area.
By late afternoon, we returned to the trailhead, tired but satisfied with our adventure.
Overall, it was a memorable day filled with adventure, camaraderie, and appreciation for the beauty of nature.

It was a beautiful gloomy evening, when we wanted to go out and chill. By that time it started to drizzle and we thought to stay at home. It is the habit of Indians to eat hot bajjis and Masala tea during rainy days. We also felt the same. So I prepared bajjis and masala tea. We had and had a great time.

Two months ago I visited Italy to participate in a professional meeting about Communication. we travelled by airplane and during our trip I was very stressed because it was my first time to participate in this event. During the meeting I was working hard and the italian team liked my presentation. I was able to answer all their questions. In the end of the day both delegations exchanged gifts. After this experience, I become more self confident.

Yesterday I went to the beach with my friend's.
It was a sunny day, so we didn't worry about rain or cold.
The sun helps the sea, so it was very calm.
I love that sense. 
We all start singing and run all over the sand.
I felt very calm and peaceful. We all enjoyed it very much, and when the sun goes down, we return to our city with a great smile

Last week, I attended a jazz concert in the park on Thursday evening. The weather was perfect, with a gentle breeze and clear skies. As I arrived, the musicians were already playing, and the sound of the saxophone filled the air. I found a spot on the grass and laid out my blanket. People around me were tapping their feet and swaying to the music. During the performance, a few kids started dancing near the stage, adding to the lively atmosphere. I met a friend there, and we shared a picnic while listening to the tunes. After the concert ended, we decided to grab some coffee at a nearby café. We spent the next hour chatting and enjoying our drinks. It was a delightful evening, a pleasant break from my usual routine.

Last week, I attended a music festival with some friends. We arrived at the venue early in the morning to get good seats. As we were setting up our picnic area, a band started playing on the main stage. The weather was perfect, and we were enjoying the music and the sunshine. In the afternoon, we walked around the different stalls and tried some delicious street food. While we were eating, I ran into an old friend from high school. We spent some time catching up and reminiscing about the old days. Later in the evening, the headlining band began their performance, and the crowd went wild. We danced and sang along to all our favorite songs. By the time the festival ended, we were exhausted but happy. We left the venue late at night and headed home, already planning our next adventure.

Last week, I visited to my grandparents' house with my family. We went there by car, and it took four hours to get there. When we arrived, my grandparents were planting the trees and watering the flowers in the garden. We made a long greeting as we haven't met for three years. After that we had our dinner, and my grandmom made a special dessert for me. It was so delicious, and I ate it while I was surfing the internet. We also visited to the supermarkets, bought some snacks and wine to have a party. At the party time, we enjoyed our foods, we sang the songs together and my brother played the guitar for us. We really had a great time there and we came back to our town.

The test started at 10:30 AM. It took 2 hours to get to and back from the test center.
I passed the test. I was very happy, so I made a pumpkin pie to celebrate! My family and I had a nice dinner.
Then we went out to get ice cream together. The next morning, my parents surprised me with a new car.
I loved it. It was a very pretty blue colour. A week later, I got my driver's license in the mail and got to drive my car.
