An Unfogettable Experience-draft two

Almost everyone has an unforgettable experience during their lifetime and I am no exception. The most memorable experience in my life happened on my 17th birthday. A month before my 17th birthday, I was complaining to my sister about not having any new sweaters, so I asked her for one, but she told me, “Sorry, I don't have spare money to buy you a new sweater.” I was very disapointed when she said that, so I continued to wear my old sweater. A month later, it was my birthday day. I remembered it was cold that saw that my sister gave me a big gift box and was shocked to see a sweater inside. The sweater had my name sewn in the center and my favorite graphics were also sewn in a circle around my name. When I saw the gift, it brought tears to my eyes, because it was specially made for me. During that night, I kept holding the sweater while I fell asleep. My dear sister was so sweet and kind to me. I could never forget that moment when I was emotionally moved by my sister's thoughtfulness.

A misunderstanding-draft two

In everyone’s daily life, there have some misunderstandings. When I was a senior high school student, I had a very close friend, Henry, who had crush on one of my classmates, Michelle. Since Michelle had lived pretty close to me, Henry asked me to help him. Consequently, I started picking Michelle up on my way home to school and walking with her home every day to tell her what a wonderful person Henry was. To my great surprise, Michelle didn’t feel as interested in Henry as she was in me. Henry started to hold grudge against me for he was convinced that I was doing everything I could to damage his reputation.Of course, I feel the gap between Henry and me was wider afterwards, but honestly speaking, there was nothing I could do about that. Feeling horrible, I couldn’t help but wonder what I’d done to deserve this.Losing a beloved friend meant the world to me because I’m the only child in my family. But later on, I realized that I remained calm and benevolent and did nothing harmful. It was Henry’s loss if he thought I was the one playing the nasty tricks behind his back.Years later, Henry and I talked this over and became close again. And I am so convinced that I should be proud what I have always been.
