Drag the correct words to help Emily complete her dramatic apology text to her best friend.

I am so sorry I missed your birthday bash! I had such a busy day at work that I completely lost track of time. My boss gave me such impossible tasks to finish, and I was just too exhausted to move by 6 PM.

I am so sorry I missed your birthday bash!

Use "so" directly before an adjective without a noun (like "sorry").

I had such a busy day at work that I completely lost track of time.

Use "such a" before an adjective modifying a singular countable noun ("busy day").

My boss gave me such impossible tasks to finish, and I was just too exhausted to move by 6 PM.

Use "such" before an adjective modifying a plural noun ("impossible tasks"). Don't let the vowel in "impossible" trick you into using "an" here, because "tasks" is plural!
