I would like to talk about a time when I visit a flower garden on Ted holiday to buy some peach blossoms for my home decorations. It’s quite near my home, so I was quite lazy to purchase sooner. During the Ted holiday, people tend to purchase the blossoms one week prior to the actual holiday. I assume that at that time the flowers will be really expensive as there are high demands. I purchased the blossoms in the holiday time and I haven’t prepared much. When I visit that place, I use an electric scooter. When I visit that place, I was so surprised that the roads are bustling with people and the gardens are overcrowded that I couldn’t move. Suddenly, my electric scooter broke down and I couldn’t turn it on. I got stuck behind a massive people and vehicles. I decided to lock my scooter and just left it right there. Then I ran into some flower stores and I became really frustrated as all the flowers were sold out. Now I couldn’t buy flowers and I couldn’t move my scooters. I called my mom and she told me that she already bought the blossoms but she hasn’t called me yet. I was so exhausted and disappointed as my effort became in vain.

I would like to talk about a time when I visited a flower garden during Tet holiday to buy some peach blossoms for my home decorations. It's quite near my home, so I was quite lazy to purchase them sooner. During Tet holiday, people tend to buy the blossoms one week prior to the actual holiday. I assumed that at that time the flowers would be really expensive due to high demand. I purchased the blossoms during the holiday, and I hadn't prepared much. When I visited that place, I used an electric scooter. I was so surprised that the roads were bustling with people and the gardens were overcrowded that I couldn't move. Suddenly, my electric scooter broke down, and I couldn't turn it on. I got stuck behind a massive crowd of people and vehicles. I decided to lock my scooter and just left it right there. Then I ran into some flower stores, and I became really frustrated as all the flowers were sold out. Now I couldn't buy flowers, and I couldn't move my scooter. I called my mom, and she told me that she had already bought the blossoms but hadn't called me yet. I was so exhausted and disappointed as my effort had become in vain.
