Life is full of different kinds of experiences. I still remember the embarrassing shopping I have experienced. It happened last weekend.
My mother asked me to go shopping. To begin with, I wrote a shopping list on a piece of paper so that I wouldn’t forget anything. Later I quickly went to a supermarket and chose the things according to the list. By the time I realized that I had left my wallet at home, I had put all the things into the bag and been ready to pay for them. So I had to rush home to get the wallet and ran back to the supermarket. When I finally got home, I found I had forgotten to buy my favorite food.
What an embarrassing shopping!
