It's interesting that everyone chose to follow annie's lead, and use an infinitive phrase. There are many other kinds of phrases, so try to show some variety next time!

Melissa, your sentence also looks very similar to Yosua's. Please try to avoid modelling your answers too closely on earlier posts.

Michaeloj, watch your punctuation. You should not use a semi-colon to join a dependent clause. Also, your last sentence has a "dangling modifier" (you might want to review this grammar issue so you can avoid it in the future).
