Well, in my entire life, I have been to several busy places, but today I would like to talk about a time when I lost my way. One month ago, I completed my graduation, and my friend invited me to his father's birthday party. I accepted this invitation and told my friends I would like to go. On the day of the party, I went to the location and saw my friend Samy and his family, who had moved to the countryside. After that, I called my husband, and he shared the location with me. However, when I arrived in the countryside, I suddenly lost my mobile connection, and the network was not available. I told my friend Samy where I was. I went to town, and then I found my friend's house. Finally, I attended the event. When I found the house, I felt really good and accomplished. It was a relief to finally be there and enjoy the celebration.
