I want to talk about a time when I felt deeply disappointed. It was exam day for university. It was really bad for me because normally I studied hard, but on exam day I felt ill. I couldn't solve any questions. Normally, I would have done well on the exam. Approximately all of my answers had been correct in the past. But on this day, I couldn't solve anything. I felt bad because of this illness. It affected me negatively. When it finished, I felt deeply disappointed. I couldn't do it. I thought I was a hard-working person. I worried that I couldn't succeed in the future. It was really disappointing for me. But I think I can handle it.
