My Adventure!!!!

What is the most terrible picture of a trip you can imagine? Is it that you lost your wallet and you have to stay in a hotel, or you lost your passport so you have to make 100 times explanation to the local policemen? Recently, I had a rather a bad experience in my first trip to the U.S.
I now live in a small town, which has 55,000 population and people here drive cars everywhere. But I am a new visitor and I am not so sure about the distance between my apartment and Wal-Mart. One night I was so hungry that I decided to go to Wal-Mart to buy something to eat by riding my bike because I have no car. I was not sure how much time it will take but I was very confident that I can make it!

When everything has been ready, I armed with my T-shirt and a book bag, and then I started my adventure. At the beginning everything was OK, I was really enjoying the beautiful, quilt countryside. If I was not sure about the roads and direction, I checked the map. Once I asked a man in a gas station where is Wal-Mart, he pointed the east way and asked me would I go there by my bike. I said YES loudly and he popped his eyes and said GOOD LUCK to me.

I felt a bit cold while I was ridding, I guessed the reason why I felt cold is I was hungry. But suddenly it began to rain and became even colder! I had to ride more quickly in order to get to Wal-Mart. Then I can have a rest and come back from there. But the road seems to be endless and it rain so heavily that I had to stop ridding and stand against a big tree.

The situation I had then seemingly couldn’t be changed and I had to try to stop a car and ask them to give me a free ride. A few minutes later, a car stopped and the couple asked me if I needed a ride. Instantly I got in the car and told them my address.

As I felt I was so lucky, then the lady sat besides me began to smoke, I felt a bit uncomfortable but I said nothing, I told myself it must be common for a American woman to smoke. When I tried to turn left my head and say thank you to the man, clearly I can see many tattoos on his arm. During the preceding ride, I just tried to be comfortable and hide my fear. Fortunately, they ride me back to my apartment safely.

The End
