TV ADS

BY JOSH MALONE
I was watching TV the other night and as usual there were all
those amazing advertisements in the middle of the film –
which are sometimes better than the programme you’re
watching! In fact, I’m usually quite influenced by the ads, and
I quite often turn the volume up when they’re on, and make
notes about what they’re selling – even if I know I can’t afford
it! This time, though, I almost missed one ad completely. It
was for a laptop, and I was actually thinking of getting one at
the time. So anyway, I decided to go for it, and I ordered one.
The advertisement made it sound so brilliant!

Well, it arrived a few days later, which was longer than I

expected. The laptop was superfast, though, and I was really
impressed. However, it hasn’t been easy to learn how to
operate it. It uses a different system to my old one. But it’s
better than my old one, and the battery takes less time to
charge too. It’s all very exciting and now I’m looking forward
to doing lots of creative things on it!
