I had bad experience this morning. I had just celebrated my 15th birthday yesterday. The party was very good.
When I woke up this morning, I felt very happy about the party.
I got on with my usual morning activities and went to school. When I arrived at school and entered my
classroom, everybody was looking at me, I wondered “why are they looking at me?”
I didn’t think about it much, so I sat in my usual chair. Suddenly, all of my friends were laughing. They were
pointing at my face. I felt embarrassed so I ran to the rest room. There was a mirror there. I looked at to the
mirror to find out why. I was surprised to see a big red pimple on my forehead. My classmates were laughing at
me because I looked like an Indian actress. I had never had it before, so the whole day I had to cover my
forehead with a head band.
