Two weeks ago, something unpleasant
happened to me. I was caught smoking a cigarette by my mother. It was very embarrassing.
A friend of mine, whom I haven't met
for a few months because she had moved to a new school in a new neighborhood,
came to visit me. We went to my room and started talking. Suddenly, she took
out a packet of cigarettes and started to smoke one. I was really surprised and
asked her about that. She told me that she had started smoking because of her
friends in her new school. She told me that it was fun and persuaded me to try
too. At first I refused, but after she continued persuaded, I became
curious and decided to try one cigarette. I thought that one cigarette wouldn’t
hurt me. I started smoking and I didn’t like it at all, but I continued because
I felt pressure to continue.
I thought that I had locked the door, but
suddenly the door opened .It was my mother .She caught me red- handed. Surprisingly,
she didn’t shout at me. Her face just became upset. She said nothing and just
left the room and closed the door .I understood that she was disappointed by me
and I felt really bad about the whole incident. I felt bad especially because I
knew that my mother was really against smoking. I also felt bad because I didn’t
really want to smoke and I did it just because of the peer pressure that I felt.
The lesson that I have learnt was that
I shouldn’t do things that can harm my health and the relationship with my
mother .I also understood that I shouldn’t
do things just because they are popular and I should always act according to my
common
sense.
Excellent work!
