April Fool’s Day

Yesterday is April fool’s day. It’s the day everyone become a liar. When I was a student(of middle&high school), we all became a liar. My friends and I changed the class with a senior for deceiving teachers. Also, we used to sit on chairs with changing their direction(for instance, with turning back). And to my friend, I lied the teacher called her to a teacher’s room. There were many lies amusing people.

But, these days, April fool’s day isn’t like a April fool’s day. Lying text messages in cell phone doesn’t occur any more. Because we are growing older. Sometimes, I miss these playing that we used to do when we were young.

    You should start playing jokes if you miss it. Maybe your friends will follow your lead and before you know it, you’ll all feel young again. I played a trick on my father last April Fool’s Day, and I know I’m much older that you!

    Please be careful about singular and plural conjugations of verbs — they must agree with your subject. When we say “we”, of course, you conjugate in the plural, meaning, “become” and not “becomes”; however, when you conjugate a verb with “everyone” as the subject, you conjugate the verb in the singular form. That is, you should write “everyone becomes”. While “everyone” and “we all” have the same meaning, in terms of grammar they are treated differently.

    By the way, it’s a very common mistake. Many native speakers make it all the time.

    Now, go play a trick on your friends!
