Free writing - Unexpected

By Kenneth Wang

    Even the simplest day might still contains some surprises deeply inside, only see if we can stop for a while and take a closer look. Take today for an example, I always planned want should be done and write them all on the list days before, and I noticed that today was just another day filled with part-time work and couple of courses, nothing to expect. After I finished my part time work and step out the computer center with such a low mood, a group of people wearing hilarious animal costumes hop towards me and asked me if I would like to take a photo with them. Being surprised, even though I still had a lot of things on my to-do list and I don't really know what they wants from me, I said yes and took the photo with them without any hesitation. After that, they told me if I upload that photo to the Facebook fan page of this campaign, I can get a coupon for a free fried chicken pie! What a surprise! For a person who loves fried chicken pie so much, this really made my day. In fact, the story don't end here. After the cute costume people left, I received a phone call from my friend and he asked me to join their party at a sport pub this weekend. The pub was the one that I always wanted to go, moreover, now I don't have to arrange anything more for weekends! In short, these unexpected incidents only happened when I stop for a while. If I didn't stop to take a photo, I might miss the chance to receive a free chicken pie and my friend's call, which might furthermore lead to a boring weekend. With this awesome experience, I might started to slower my pace and look for some great perhaps.
