A Series of Unfortunate Events

Li Weimin (Wayne)

If you want to know my mishap, I will tell you there are lots of mishaps I have had. As a matter of fact, I am a careless boy. I remember the worst mishap while I was a second school student.

The story happened this way. First of all, I should start this story back in the afternoon of that day. I was going to have a break after lunch as usual. That day, my mom was too busy so she couldn’t go back home for lunch and she had been working until 7 PM. Unfortunately, I forgot to set my alarm clock when I had a break. Therefore, you know, I was late for school almost 1hour. Besides, my head teacher gave me a lesson strictly. I was so depression and unhappy during class.

After school, I was going back home. But, it gave me a shock, I had no bus card in my pocket when I got on the bus. What’s worse, I also did not have any coins. So, the bus driver couldn’t let me on. In the end, I had to go home on foot. The length of going home is nearly 7 km. It’s too long so as to make me exhausted and thirsty. Finally, I arrived home and I felt so happy because of having a rest and cup of water in the house.

But, I could not find my keys when I wanted to open the door. You know what a bad luck. I felt down a lot. I complained how careless you are and hated myself. I watched the time that’s 5:50 pm. I tried to phone my mom, but she couldn’t leave early. So, I had to sit in front of my door waiting my mom for over one hour.
