Unforgettable birthday
My another birthday is coming quietly as dear Dove’s birthday gift flying to me ahead. Actually the gift she present me is more than one, yesterday noon, she called me and let me hear dear David’s voice, it did give me a big surprise of joy as same as to David, for he didn’t know who he was going to talk with, just in that afternoon, I got a parcel from post office, which was from my dear sister---Dove, she bought me a set of original English books contained lots of short but moving and inspiring stories, It’s really a great pleasant surprise for me, for I never thought I would receive any gift from a cyber friend on my birthday. But I know she is different, we have become close friends as we got acquaintance on net, not all netizens are as lucky as us, I suppose. So this birthday appears special for me and it will not be forgot easily. But I know it’s all because of Canuck’s comments, without it, Dove didn’t know flyheart, flyheart would not have chance to meet dear dove and many other dear friends here, it’s the forum and all the friends who let me know what is true love and how we should share our feelings to each other, so on my birthday, I want to say to our dear host---Canuck: THANK YOU!!! You teach me a lot and this forum has meant a lot to me now.
I know each one has their birthday, and has some special game on this special day. My husband buys me a special gift every year on this day since we met and fell in love with each other. But one year he was not with me for his work, I spent it with my classmates when I was in university. Since my birthday is in spring, a good season when people like to have some outside activities instead of staying at home. We decided to climb the mountain which was not very far from our school.
It was a sunny day, we talked and laughed all the way when we cycled to the mountain. About two hours later, we got to the destination, it was said a iron-tree one the mountain that could blossom once every ten years had been blossoming then, so many people went there to have a look. We first took a look at the special tree, then we climbed to a top of one big rock, had our lunch. We took many pictures beside a brook and on some strange stones. We really had some good time there. Especially for me when they said HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me in the open air. In the afternoon, we began to return as we had a long way to ride.
Unfortunately, as we were picking our bicycles, a strong wind with lots of stones and sands came toward us, people said that place was just a mouth of wind, so the place we visited was called Small mouth, but it was a big mouth for human, especially for those girls like us, we hardly got on our bikes due to the strong wind and sand, we were unable to open our eyes , either. So we just pushed our bikes forward. Suddenly another bike fell over beside us, we came up to her, found she was a girl in our department, she was hurt badly, blood came out of her trousers, it was serious, we should find a way to help her immediately, then, we stood in the middle of the road, managed to stop a jeep, a few minutes later, we got one, and took her into the car, her boy friend went with her, and asked us to bring their bikes back to school. It was a problem for us—four girls who were not skillful on riding, but we found another two boys we didn’t know before who were from another department of our university, they helped us take the bikes back.
In the evening, when I was lying on my bed, the leader of our department came to our dormitory, I thought he came to praise me and other girls, unexpectedly, he questioned me why I took my classmates to the mountain without asking their permission, he continued to warn me I ought to be responsible for that injured girl if she had some serious problem. I was puzzled in the beginning, then I knew what he pointed to, for I was the monitor of our class, but that girl went with her boy friend, we just met them when they were in trouble, second, she didn’t belong to my class at all, but to another class. I guessed he must be crazy or afraid the girl’s parents would ask him for trouble, I told him, I should not be blamed for this thing, he should ask the girl who took her there, then judged who should be responsible for that accident. I didn’t know if he questioned the girl later, but he didn’t make trouble for me any more.
I still kept those photos we took there, however, it always reminds me of that horrible wind and the injured girl as well as innocent me.
Wa--, today is my birthday, I’m happy now!!!!!
