五、Saturday，March 10th Sunny
At around 8: 30 am, I left home to attend my friend's birthday party. When I reached the bus stop, I realized that I had left my wallet at home.
Even worse, by the time I came back, I found that I had left the key at home. I decided to climb into the room through the open window. My house is on the second floor, so it was not difficult to climb in. However, I fell down and hurt my right leg. As a result, I went to hospital instead of my friend's birthday party.
It was really the worst day of my life.
