Choose one event and organise it through setting, action and result. Use past forms for finished events. Add one personal reaction to explain why the experience mattered. Avoid naming every activity if those details hide the main point. A short coherent account is easier to follow than a long list.
Make time clear in a spoken account. A finished experience usually needs past forms, while a future arrangement needs an appropriate future expression and a time. Keep the main point easy to follow by selecting relevant details. When planning with someone else, compare options and confirm the final agreement. A listener should be able to distinguish what already happened, what is usually true and what the speakers intend to do next.
