Maybe several years ago, I made an appointment with my best friend Li Xinhao. This appointment was mainly for shopping at a famous shopping mall in China. This shopping experience is really significant for me. It allows you to see many different kinds of new goods that amaze and fascinate me. I was really busy with many things, such as finishing homework and posting on social media, and so I forgot this appointment. I felt really disappointed afterward, mainly because I missed an important opportunity to shop at this famous shopping mall in China, which has a long history that amazes me. I missed this appointment and couldn't see the important things in this shopping mall. If I have time to make another appointment, I will definitely attend.
