Fifth Day

1 At the eleventh hour - at the last minute; almost too late
Example : Yes, I got the work done in time. I finished it at the eleventh hour, but I wasn't late.

2 bushed - very tired; exhausted

3 beat one's brains out - try very hard to understand or do something.
Example : Can you help me with this problem? I've been beating my brains out with it,
but I just can't solve it.

4. burn the midnight oil - study/work all night or until very, very late at night.
Example : I'm not ready for the test tomorrow. I guess I'll have to

5. broke  - without money
Example : I cant give you treat as I m broke.

6.couch potato - someone who spends too much time watching TV.

7. Cut it out!: stop doing something (that's annoying).

8. drop someone a line: write to someone.(drop me a message)
Example : I haven't written to my parents for a long time. I'd better drop them a line
today or tomorrow.

9. grab a bite: get something to eat.

10. Get real!: Be realistic! / Don't be naive.
