A terrible accident to me


November 30, 1994

I have had terrible accidents twice. Actually, they are serious but something funny. I wounded my face. It was the right side next to my eye. I did it twice on the same spot.

When I was 18 years old, I used to ride a bicycle on my way to school every day. One day, when I went back home, a woman came across my way. She was in a hurry to cross the road while there was a blue signal though it was turning from yellow to red. I tried to avoid her, but I couldn't. As a result, I fell off from the bicycle and my face fell right on the ground. I went to a hospital. The doctor said I shouldn't have a suntan for one year. But I went to beach during the next summer. I got a light brown mark beside my right eye.

When I was 22 years old, I wounded the same spot again. This time, it was a tragedy. I jogged in the morning and fell down. I remember that I couldn't understand why I fell down. It was Sunday so all the hospitals were closed. I can't forget the day because I should have attended a wedding ceremony where I was supposed to make a speech for the bride. Later, I went to the hospital and the same doctor told me not to get suntan. However, of course(^^;, I went to beach in the next summer. I couldn't help going to beach.

I know that I fall down easily. Actually, I went to the same hospital several times from 17 to 23 years old. The doctor remembered me well, and he said, "You come here every year."
