Starting my English journal

Yesterday I've decided to write entries in English - kind of a blog.
I hope, I can improve my English until my exams!
So.. today I woke up really late. Almost at 10 o'clock. I was afraid, because I should have gone to the shop buying something to eat, but it had been already closed. However, I can order a pizza or some Chinese food, too.
I started looking around for people, who could lend me English books. Last time when I went to a bookstore I almost bought a Terry Pratchett book! But I couldn't afford it then...
I hope, that it'll still be there, if I'm going back.
Got to go now! I'm starving~

That is better said as regret rather than disappointed.
