范文

I'm going to talk about a funny thing that happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I think it was a Saturday morning, and I was having a coffee in a cafe shop near where I live.

I was on my own so I decided to read the newspaper while drinking my coffee. I must have been quite engrossed in what I was reading because the time passed quickly, and I suddenly realized that I needed to go. What I didn't realize was that I had been sitting with my legs crossed, and one of my legs had completely gone numb. As I stood up to leave the cafe, I quickly became aware that my left leg was 'dead', but it was too late; I started to fall. I thought I could catch myself on the table, but the table tipped over and I fell to the floor in front of everyone in the cafe!

I could remember being on my knees in the middle of the cafe, looking up at the staff and customers around me. I felt really embarrassed and I expected the other people to find it funny, but to my surprise nobody was laughing. They were all worried that something really bad had happened to me! As I got up from the floor, I had to explain to the whole cafe that I was fine. I was embarrassed at the time, but I laughed about it later!
