Well, I receive good news very often, so it's become part of our life, good news and bad news. I want to share some very good news, a great news that I received during last summer vacation when I was in my hostel. We had planned many times to go on a trip, but somehow it was canceled every time. My family and my cousins always love to go on trips, but we could never fulfill our plans. Last summer vacation, while I was in my class, they suddenly called me and asked when I was going to come home. I asked why, and they replied that we were going on a trip to Cox's Bazar. I was shocked at first because I couldn't believe it, as the plan had been canceled many times before. Besides, my parents hadn't told me about this. If this news were real, they would have definitely informed me first. So I asked them again, and then I got off the phone. I asked my parents, is this true? They said yes, everything is planned, and they would pick me up from my hostel in two days. My happiness was over the moon after hearing this. After finishing my class, I immediately went shopping because I had lots of plans. I wanted to buy shoes and clothes, a new pair of everything so that I could enjoy and feel comfortable there. This is my dream place to visit since childhood, but we never planned to go there. We had also planned to go somewhere else, but that didn't happen. The Cox's Bazar plan was really shocking for me, and I was so glad to go there. This place is truly beautiful, and I went there with my family and cousins, whom I really love. If you want to go anywhere with your loved ones, it's an amazing time. We could enjoy our time together.
