Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

- Hi girls! What's up? - Hi Cyril! Not much, and you? Did you have a good weekend? - Yes, we went to a wedding. - Someone that we know? - No, the bride was Charlotte's cousin. - I love weddings! Me, this weekend, I didn't do anything at all! - I'm so jealous of you! I didn't have a minute to myself. Patrick painted the living room, and I had to tidy up and clean everything. I would need another weekend to recover!

Let me take a look at that...
