Can I say occasion instead of time? For example:
I remember the occasion when my kitten broke the vase. I was upset because that vase cost me a lot!
Or should I only say:
I remember the time when my kitten broke the vase. I was upset because that vase cost me a lot!
Both of them are acceptable, because 'occasion' and 'time' are synonymous in this context.
