Got lost in Aussie!
I
will tell you my story about my desperate moment in life.
One day, I joined
the student immersion program in Australia. This day is my first day school in
Adelaide, Australia. My guest mom sent me and my friends to the school by car. And
she took us home after school. In the way to home, my guest mom told us that tomorrow
we should go home by bus and she won’t take us home anymore. She told us the
bus that we should take, and the way home. For your information, my home is ±750
meters from the bus stop. We tried to remember the way home, but………………………
In the next day,
after school, we went home by the bus. We took the correct bus and stop on the
right bus stop. We got out the bus and...... WE FORGOT THE WAY HOME. None of us
remember the way. There are two roads beside the main road, to the east and to
the west. Because we didn’t know which road is the correct one, so we took the
nearest one.
After we walk ±700
meters away from main road, we realized that we took the wrong road. We were
confused and got panic. That time, we don’t have an Australian card yet, so we couldn’t
call our guest mom. Can you imagine? We got lost in other’s country! While we
were discussing what we have to do that time, suddenly an old woman came to us.
She asked, “Why do you look so confused? Do you looking for something?” That
time I felt so happy. We told her that we were lost, and we told her our home
address. And, she told us that, that address is not near here. It’s over there, in
the other side of the main road.
So, we had to go
back to the main road and take the other road. And yes, that is the correct
one. Finally we got home safely even though we had a long trip first. It’s a desperate moment but it's the most unforgettable
moment in my life. Thank the old women with a beautiful heart.
