Alice's notebook entry: Aug 09, 2010

Yesterday was the Father's Day, and I had dinner with my family.
We ate delicious food at a Chinese restaurant.
After dinner, we went to a KTV.
We sang many songs during three hours. ( better - For three hours we sang many songs. or We sang many songs during the three hours that we were there.)
It's a great memory for me.

Excellent English! 

'during' is used when something is happening, so 'during three hours' isn't quite right because you haven't indicated what was happing then.  'during the three hours that we were there' indicates that the thing that was happening was 'you were there'.
