"The Crowded Store"
Yesterday, I went to the store to buy some groceries. It was very crowded, and the queue at the cashier was long. I forgot to bring my shopping bag, so I had to buy a new one. I also forgot my wallet, but luckily, I had some cash in my pocket.
The store was noisy, and it was hard to find what I needed. After 30 minutes, I found the items I wanted. When I got home, I realized that I forgot to buy eggs. Now, I don’t want to go back to the store. Maybe I’ll go tomorrow when it’s less crowded.
