Describe a time when you did not heed a good advice and what the consequences
were.

I was at my friend Rick's house to do some mathematics homework together. Rick's is a whiz
with mathematics and he helped me complete the homework in record time.
As it was getting towards dinner time, I decided to head on home about two kilometers away.
Outside the house I could see thick black clouds and flashes of lightning in the eastern sky. There
was huge storm going on there. So I got on my bicycle to get home before the storm struck us.
Rick's mother came out, saw the distant storm and told me not to cycle home. She said that she
would send me home in her car. It was better not take the risk of riding the bicycle on the busy
main road in the middle of a storm. It was dangerous. I declined her offer, thanked her and
pedalled off before she could say any more.
Just as I got on the main road, the storm struck. Raindrops came thick and fast. In seconds I was
soaked to the skin. I looked for shelter but could see none. Fortunately my books were in a
plastic bag and they should be fine. So I decided that since I was already soaking wet, I might as
well go all the way home on my bicycle.
The road was fairly quiet as it was out of town. Some cars and lorries passed me kicking up
spray. I could not get any wetter so I did not mind. I had only one thing on my mind and that was
to get home.
It was foolish of me to do cycle under such dangerous conditions as visibility was very low. One
moment I was going along quiet nicely, the next I found myself lying in a puddle of water beside
the road. The road was covered with water and I did not even realized that I have left it and had
fallen into a hole. Fortunately the hole was not very big but it was very wet. I picked myself and
the bicycle up and groped in the pool for my books. No plastic bag would have saved the books.
They were wet through and through. I should have listened to Rick's mother's advice. now I
still have more than a kilometer to go in the rain. As it was dangerous to cycle, I pushed my
bicycle all the way home.
