correction about composition

“Your worst birthday ever”

It was ON Saturday one of my friends invited me to celebrate my birthday number 20 in a bar ON Saturday night. I don´t remember the date and I prefer so because this day was full of bad thinks. On Saturday morning I woke up and I FELT so bad because I had rhinitis; then, my mother talked TO me about go shopping, but I didn´t like the idea; however, my mother convinced me to go. When we were AT the supermarket named “Exito”, a child hit me with his shopping cart in my leg. The blow caused a large bruise TO me.

When my mother and I comeback at home I dropED some packages and a bottle of wine was broken. Then I had a family lunch at home. In the afternoon I was listening TO the radio and watching tv and AT night I got out with my friends to celebrate my birthday, but an annoying girl joined TO our celebration AND she told me about her problems AT the bar all night. 

The bar was very nice, excellent rock music, but the beer mug was containing a mix of water and beer. It is a popular strategy used by some bars () in order to save beer. However the price of the beer mug was not cheap.
