So today I decide to share my normal day with you guys! First I wake up and snooze my alarm about 30min every five minutes 
I'm not a morning person... Then I finally get up, make breakfast and get ready to leave.
Driving to school takes me about 20min so it's not so far. At school I wear my uniform and go to see what can I do today. It's not that typical going to different classes during the day. All day I'm in same garage type of hall with my classmates. I really like that type of studying because I never liked reading so it's good I can just do something with my hands and that's how I learn better.
I fix lawn mower today that was not running at all in the beginning. I simply check if there is spark and yes it wasn't the problem so I clean the carburetor. When I put the carburetor back it's place I check again if it's running. I was lucky that it didn't have bigger problem because it was running perfectly. 
After few hours I notice a lot of gasoline under carburetor. At first I was thinking it must be one screw on the bottom so I tighten it and wait if it was enough. Well it was not... Then I notice the fuel hose is leaking. Alright then I just take off the air filter because it was on my way and take all gasoline out of the tank. My only problem now was to find new hose that is same size. Ofcourse I didn't find it so I take a bit too small hose and warm it's ends and put 2 bolts in each end. I let it cool down and take the bolts off and now I was ready to install it. Everything went good in it's place and no leaks! 
It was a good day because my favorite machines are lawn mowers, chainsaws and bikes. Always nice to work with them even there can be complicated problems sometimes.
P.S I know my english is not perfect so don't mind my little spelling mistakes please!

First of all welcome to MyLot! =) Thanks for sharing about your day with us. My husband enjoys working on small engines as well. He does it for side money and he's good at it.
