Today was an unlucky day. Let me tell you why. First, it started out great. I went to Yishun swimming complex to have my swimming lesson. My mom and I were rushing because we were going to be late for the swimming lesson. Phew! We arrived in the nick of time. I happily went on with my swimming lesson not knowing what would happen to me later.
After my swimming lesson, my father had also finished his work. We had a mouth watering meal together despite there was some blood in the chicken meat - gross! After that delicious meal, we went to do some shopping at North Point. Just then, I remembered that it is Yi You's birthday tomorrow. I decided to buy a present for him. My father gave me a ten dollar note to buy the book. The queue was very long. When it was almost my turn, I noticed that the ten dollar note was not in my hand. Oh my god! Where is the ten dollar note??!! I panicked. I combed through the whole bookstore and the money was nowhere to be found. I prepared to face the music. As I walked to my mother, I could feel shivers running down my spine. When I told her about my carelessness, I got a tongue lashing from her. Without wasting a second, she called my father to inform him about my carelessness. He looked a little angry, but later cooled down. My father took out another ten dollar note and told me not to lose it again.
After this incident, I promise I won't be such a blunder again.
