F2F Class Notes (Lily)[S/R]

Speaking exercise

Last night, I came back Shanghai. I took much heavy luggages, I walked in the school, I tripped over my left foot with my right foot and fell. There were many students and they stopped to look at me. I listened a girl said ” tian na”, and I was ashamed. I want to hide in the dark. A boy rode by and stopped to ask me, “do you need help?”, I said no thanks.
