               Five years ago, when I was an elementary school student, everyday my school finished about three o’clock and my school didn’t have some busses. Also we couldn’t get on bike, because this is a school rule.  Everyday I was walking the street alone. From my house to my school took about 40 minutes. Then I thought it was a long way for me. And nothing good happened.

             One day, I went back to my home from the school. Everyday I was walking the same course. When I was walking in the park, I saw some money on the grasses under the bench. It was under some stones, so I was looking around and no one was there. I thought it was a chance. I moved the stones away from there. There was 10000 Yen. It was about 500 Rand. I got a lot of the money and I felt so happy. When I went back to my house, I told my mother, “ I got the money in the park.” My mother said, “ Wow you are so lucky today.” My mother felt happy and she was excited. And I called to my friend by telephone and I told them about that. 

           It was really wonderful day. I didn’t want to use that money, because I will use it for the future. Next day I deposited it in the bank and at present, the money is still deposited there.
