A Close Call I Once Had

   I had a close call that happened during my college. Recall to the scene, it was a raining day on the weekend. I rode a scooter with my girlfriend at the time. When we went through a bridge and would like to going down the bridge by a tight right-hand curve. I know it was dangerous if the scooter rode too fast and I also had to avoid passing on the traffic lines of the road. However, the terrible things I worried really happened. When turning the scooter, I felt the skid of the scooter, the I lost the control of it. Then my girlfriend and I felt from the scooter. Luckily, my girlfriend and I just had little injury and no cars followed behind us. Up until today, I still cannot dispel the fears when I rode the scooter through a curve on the road.

   It’s true if you try to avoid something , the more it happens. When I rode through the curve, it seemed that I kept looking at the traffic lines and thought “ Don’t press the line”. I didn’t focus on the direction I want to go. Just like the purple elephant with yellow spots mentioned here.
