III. Bài mẫu:
Well, my all-time favorite place to relax in my house is my bedroom. It’s the spot where I can lie down and forget about my problems and sadness. It is painted with comfortable blue tones and a hint of vanilla color. Every time the night falls, I lay down on this lovely bed and close my eyes to enjoy the quietest moments of the day.
My mom and I tried to maximize the space in this room, so it also features a mini-fridge, air conditioning, and an air purifier. Moreover, this is the only room with a reliable wifi connection and a high-powered computer, so it’s perfect for me to work on graphics and play games with high-definition visuals. In fact, when I get tired of playing video games, I switch to watching movies on my Samsung mini projector, which I pair with my Marshall speakers. Therefore, i have nothing more to desire than the things furnished in this room because it made me completely satisfied
Actually, 3 years ago, I didn’t really like this room because of how cramped it was. But after my mom and I did a little adjusting on the layout, paint colors, and decorations to my own personal taste, it looked much more gorgeous and shining.
To conclude, I’d like to express my gratitude to my mom for providing me with a room that allows me to relax, be myself, and forget the pressures of the outer world.

These are the places where people can relax, entertain, and socialize.
