Yesterday afternoon we were sharing real-life stories form each one of us in the class. Some stories were fun, and some other were depressing or scary. My story was about how I met an important friend of mine who saved me from living from hand to mouth. If it hadn't been for Bruce's help, I wouldn't have been so luck being a teacher here. Leo told us one of his friends got a car accident and the guy who bumped into his friend's car tried to hit and run but his license plate number had been taken down. I forgot what Aileen had said about her story, but another story of hers couldn't stop me from laughing until now. On one Fool's day, she gift-wrapped a chocolate-like soap and gave it to her roommate. Her roommate happily accepted it and ate the "chocolate" with no doubt. You can imagine how had become of her. Emily told us a story about his pass-away grandpa returning home one day. That was a horrible one. As for Marsha, hmm.....She said she almost drowned many years ago when she was a little girl playing with her sister near a fishing pool.
Would you like to tell us your real-life story?
