1.Phùng Ngọc Thanh Hương
so
well I
have to
admit that I'm not
good
at memorizing things and I have lost
so
many
items in my entire life and
today
I want to share about a time that I forgot a
very
crucial personal items which was my
wallet
so
it was about a year ago when me and my boyfriend intended to I'll
come
back home on that holiday and we decided that we would grab a couch to return and as long as we arrived I didn't pay any attention on my personal items as I always ask my boyfriend to bring them for me
so
a few days later not until my mother asked me to
let
her
some
money did I realize that I couldn't find my
wallet
I then
started
to feel panic
because
I couldn't remember even the smallest
details
that could
help
me try that
wallet
but
all in all I didn't surprise and upset at all
because
it's
just
simply
happened
so
many
times
so
at that time I should swear that I was never
used
a
wallet
again

this February during the 16th of February was the birthday of my best friend and I was in the exam session
so
I was during the period of exam I was studying all day to all the month
so
I was
very
worried about that
because
I had to have a exam on the 18th on February
so
I
was concentrated
for that I wasn't even going out and then on the 16 was my best friend's birthday and I
totally
forgot that
because
I didn't open the message app on my cell phone
so
I wasn't aware of what was happening around me and I wasn't
also
aware of the date

I lost the count of the days I
was focused
only
on the exam day and on the evening I have a sort of realization that day it was,
so
it wrote to her that i feel

a lot of
things in your mind and
a lot of
confusion you
think
a lot of
things and

so
I would like to
describe
an occasion when I forgot something
important
so
firstly
I
think
I should commence with the
first
aspect which is about when it happened
so
I was preparing for the exam in July 26th and when I was on the way to my exam I realized that I forgot my ID passport you know and I was
very
stressed
and disappointed it at the same time and my
stress
was filling me up and my hand was shaking my eyes watered
so
I
really
I was
really
stressed
about that
but
since I arrived to the the centre and the examiner was understanding person
so
she
just
like close your eyes on that and didn't pay attention
so
it was
very
crazy
40.Thomas Makuzo
well there was a day when I forgot my office keys at home this happened I
think
last year around June
so
what happened is I woke up and I went to bed I had my breakfast and then I
got
out in a hurry trying to catch your bus
because
I knew that if I
keep
on being late I wouldn't be able to kiss your bus and I'll
have to
be absent at work for the whole day
so
I went out in a hurry I didn't know that I had
left
my keys on the table
so
when I arrived at work I was
very
happy that I have I managed to reach their
own
time maybe a minute from the from the time that we we
start
working
so
I
just
found out that I don't have the keys and I had all the keys including this parents
so
this was
very
bad
and I felt frustrated during the time
so
I forgot these Keys
just
because
I was in a hurry and this took me a listen waking up a bit earlier
so
that you can you can arrange your things and
make
sure that you have everything
before
you go out
so
I learned a lot from that that's how I felt about that I
think

I
think
the most occasion when
I've
been it when I was in a hurry is when I have an appointment meeting with someone
important
the clients or the other significant person I forgot where I put out my phone yeah
so
I woke up late and since
I've
in a hurry
so
I forgot where my phone at. I feel
so
frustrating and I can't remember it all.
So
, what
I've
done at the time I sit in my room I close my eyes I do like a breathing technique inhale and exhale try to remember anything that
I've
done
before
, putting the pieces of
events
that is
coming up to my brain in the sequences and then that's how can I find my phone

education where I forgot something
important
was when I had to
give
my midterm examination during my graduation I forgot my stationery
because
I was in hurry as all or exam on 10 o'clock
but
that particular exam was on 9 and I forgot about the timings of that exam as they were
different
from others
but
my friend call me in the morning about the time in my stuff in and hurry that's why I forgot my stationery
moreover
there is no shop near our department
so
when I reach there it was
very
sad moment for me as they don't have nearby the teachers
also
don't
allow
the students to hear the longing
so
I was in panic mode that how can I be able to write my answer
but
thanks to the examination and
give
me all the stationery
because
because
heard that helping
other
people
will
give
you
give
you benefit in any
other
way
so
I feel
very
disappointed and that particular thing and
other
my habit of not checking the WhatsApp group
because
not able to
check
that
moreover
it was
also
difficult difficult thing and I don't have it to do anything in hurry
