Hi people, it's Leo here. Do you have that 'little something' that has been given to you as a present, like a watch or a token...something that has sentimental value? I have my solid white analogue watch that my Yiayia gave to me on my tenth birthday. My watch has one big face to tell the time and three other dials: one for the day, the other for the date and that last one for 24 hour time. It has a metal frame which is polished  to dark blue and a white rubbery wristband. My watch is also water resistant up to 50 meters in depth so I don't have to worry about getting it wet. I wear my watch to school everyday so I can practice learning how to tell the time. But I don't wear it on the weekend because I don't really bother looking at the time on the weekend. I also don't want to scratch it. I recently got my name engraved on the back of the watch, so now if I lose it, people will know it's mine. I'm pretty good at losing things.

 
Until next time
