Gary Johnson went to work last Monday, as usual. He walked into the office, but nobody was there. He looked in the offices. He looked in the cafeteria. He looked in the employee bathrooms. He even looked in the basement. Gary didn't know what to do. He walked back to his office. The lights in his office were turned off. He turned on the lights and everybody he worked with yelled: "Surprise!" It was Gary's birthday.

    Emma,

    WOW!  That was excellent.  I noted a few phrases that you could improve on a little.  Practice saying: Gary Johnson; nobody was there, and; the lights in his office.
