First, thank you in advance for your effort.Now to start.
I finally finished my job today working for the day. It is was an exhausted exhausting day. there is was a nasty customer who bothered me for an hour. What the customer want is entering my club house, He wanted to come in the club, but he has an adverse record but he had been banned , so he was refused to enter entry. He knows the reason, but he still urged us to let him in. Finally, i have had to call the police to get him away him to leave.
Secondly, after my work, i went to watch the maze runner. It is nice to see the final chapter of the story. It has been serveral years since the last chapter one was in the cinemas.
After the movie, i went to eat an affogato for dessert and called it a day.

you are right but this is not common usage.
I am a bartender. A much more common way to phrase this would be:
Bartender: What can I get you?
You: I want something to sip on. Can you recommend a nice whiskey?
or something like that.

If you're currently learning English and working on your pronuntiation is not a priority of your learning strategy, let me tell you something that may change your approach and will show you why you should pay more attention to that skill.
I'm going to write about a funny anecdote that happened to me about three years ago. That was the time at which I was a newbie student of English, and I used to attend Meetup groups regularly in order to practice conversation -- I'd like to mention here that I've created my own, which is working quite nicely--
One day, while conversing with an English man about the weather (what else?), we were comparing England's weather with the weather in Spain. Since I'm from Valencia, which is a city located on the East coast of the country, I started telling him about our local weather, which is very warm and pleasant most of the year. After a couple minutes, the conversation about the weather naturally led to the Sun, the sea, the summertime and.....the beach.
So of course, I started to explain how nice, wonderful, hot and enjoyable our beaches are, that we have plenty of them all around, and that every visitor should get to know one.
The sentence that came out of my mouth was “once you've known a Valencian beach, you'll remember it forever”.
The man's face was indescribable. He had a look that said: “ Hey bloke, we don't know each other...what kind of shit are you saying to me? Have you lost your mind?”
I just thought that he wasn't interested in the topic but then another person who was sitting close to us said:
“ Ehem...I think you're not pronouncing properly. You should enlarge a bit more the letter “e” on the word “beach”. Do you want to know why...?
Well, I've been working my ass off on pronunciation since that very minute. I think you should start to do it too....just in case.0 votedFebruary 21, 20181ONE PIECE
I like ONE PIECE.I was impressed by watching the anime ONE PIECE. I cried in front of the TV when I watched episode 825. The title of the episode is "liar Luffy and Sanji".
I cried when Luffy said to Sanji "Say how you really feel!!!". Then Sanji said "I want to help all people no matter what". I was impressed by Sanji. Why is Sanji so gentle!?!?
(<-we don't use "gentle" in this way). we say "kind" or "goodhearted"
I love Sanji!!!
I want to come back to Sanji quickly[emoji]
Notes:
-There are multiple different words in English for 早い.
I get up early in the morning. (a specific time)
I hope the test finishes quickly. (a duration of time)
-English does not have soto/uchi. So phrases like "people who don't even think about my family" do not exist in English.
We would say "a person who doesn't even care about me" "a person who doesn't even know me".
- We do not use "feeling" as a noun in this way. We use the verb "to feel":
How are you feeling?
How do you feel about that?
When feeling is used as a noun the most common way is with the verb "to have":
I have a bad feeling about this.
A: Are you exited about your new job? B: Yeah, I have a good feeling about it.

Hi Sam,
How's it going? I'm so happy. I got an amazing adventure book that I have really wanted for a long time. It was written by one of my favourites writers. If you are free this evening I'll bring it over.
Call me,
Noe
Hi Harry!
How are you doing? Wow, that sounds wonderful, I'll make sure your family and you to have fun in Tenerife. It's a large and spectacular island and you can find millions of fascinating places to spend your time.
The summer is getting closer and the weather is starting to warm up so it will be great to go sightseeing when you arrive. If I were you, I'd go to the white sandy beaches which are mostly in the south. They are sometimes crowded though.
Since you want on going hiking, why don't you go to some stunning natural paths such as El Barranco del Rey or The Teide National Park?
Remember to bring light clothes and trainers, you are all going to need them!
Hope you have a good time,

My school has a test 3 times a year.The test started today and we have 5 days to finish it.
I don't like to study and my school is difficult for me. So I worry that I wont make it to the third grade.
(English speakers will not understand what this grade means)
So better might be: So I worry that I will not graduate. Or: So I'm worried that I will not pass.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I have recently applied for a 6 months English course at Queen College with accommodation.
I have received a letter that states that I was accepted and the accommodation was booked. However, I have an issue.
My issue is that I made a request for a room in a family house, not in a single bedroom apartment in the city center. Although it is convenient, as it is in a walking distance from the college, I expected to be provided a room outside the city. My preference is to live in a quiet and peaceful place surrounded by nature and have the possibility of speaking and interacting with a family everyday.
If possible, could you please change my accomodation.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you,{name}
