Sample writing
Life is full of the unexpected. I’ll never forget the experience I had last month.
It was a sunny day. I stayed up late until 1:00 a.m. because I watched an NBA match. I was so sleepy that the clock didn’t wake me up. It was already 7:50 a.m. when I woke up. I hurried to the bus stop, but the bus had already left. I had to take the taxi to school. When I got on the taxi, I realized I had left my wallet at home. I had to call my mother and waited for her to bring some money to me. When I got to the school gate, I found I was wearing the wrong shoes. They were different. But I had no time. I had to walk into the classroom. My classmates all laughed. Then the teacher came to me, he stood before me for a few seconds. At last he went away shaking his head.
What a bad day!
