The
First Accident
I studied at SMAN 8 Denpasar when I was
in senior high school. It’s located on
Gatot Subroto street. I got many friends there
and I was so happy. One day, my school
and the other school in Bali joined a volleyball
competition in the stadium in
lapangan Buyung. The competition called PORJAR. My friends
participate in this competition. I was
really
excited because my friends participated in this competition.
So I decided to go to the stadium with my friends. After I went back home from
the stadium, I got an accident. This is the first time I got an accident when I
was in senior high school.
The weather was so hot, but it did not stop me to watch my friends’ competition. I wanted to go to the
stadium with my friends. They were Nela, Bobby, Agung, and Desi. I waited my
friends at my home to pick me up to the stadium. After my friends arrived, we went to the
stadium together. I rode my motorcycle by myself. Because the street to the stadium was so
crowded, I rode my motorcycle
carefully. I followed my friends in front of me because I forgot the way to the
stadium. About 30 minutes later,
I arrived at
the stadium. I searched a good seat to watch the competition comfortably. From
a distance, I looked my friends did
preparation. I really couldn’t wait to watch my
friends’ competition. After I waited quite
a long time, the competition began. The competition was so exciting. I watched
seriously. I focused on Melani, one of my friends who played volleyball in this
competition. She is the best volley
ball atlethe in volleyball at my school. She scored a
lot in this competition,
and finally she made the team won
this competition. I was happy to know
that.
I congratulated my friends. I was proud
and happy to see their team won the competition. They played the competition
very good, especially Melani. I also felt satisfied with how they played in the
competition. After I congratulated my friends, Boby, Nela, Agung, Desi, and I waited Melani
because she wanted to go
back home together. We sat
on the seat near the exit. We waited just a few minutes. Then, Melani came to
us with her bag on her back. After that,
we went to the parking area where we parked our motorcycle. Parking area looked
so deserted because many participants and spectators left the stadium. I stood
beside a motorcycle which had pink color and there was a brand named Vario.
That was my motorcycle. I rode my motorcycle and followed my friends in front
of me. We went back home. On the way, my friends rode their motorcycle so slowly.
I wanted to go back home
immediately because I was tired after watching
the competition so I
overtook and preceded my friends. Unfortunately, I got wrong way. When I met
traffic light, I should turn left, but I rode my motorcycle straight ahead. I
was panic at the time. I went back to the street that I passed before. I rode
my motorcycle very fast. Suddenly, there was a man crossed the street. I braked
my motorcycle abruptly. After that, I fell down. My motorcycle scretched, and I got wound on my
right foot and knee but I
didn’t feel hurt at the time. I got an accident in front of machine shop. There were 2 men from a machine shop helped
me move to sit near the
shop. I cried there because I was afraid that
my mother would
get angry to me. Then, a woman came and
helped me to clean my wound. I didn’t know why my wound didn’t feel hurt.
I called my friends to pick me up to go
back home. Nela and Desi came to help me
and I went back home with Nela while Desi followed us. On the way back home,
I looked at my foot anxiously. I was
also
afraid that my mother was
shocked when she saw my wound. I was
thinking it until I arrived at home. My friends
ring the bell and
then my mother opened the gate. My mother was
shocked
when she knew
I got an accident, but she didn’t angry with me. She asked
me why I got an accident,
I explained it to my mother. After that, my mother said
grateful to my friends and my friends
went home. Since after that we went to hospital. When
we arrived at the emergency room,
I felt so scared and anxious. I was
thinking about what the doctor would do to my wound. In the emergency room,
the doctor asked me to lay down on the bed. He cheked my wound. After that, the
nurses cleaned
my wound. It was so hurt. I cried to endure the pain. They put Sofra-tulle on my wound and bandaged it.
My foot was swollen at the time so I was difficult to walk normally. Besides, I needed
to take a rest at home about 1
week and I should check up my wound every two days.
I got a lesson from my first accident in senior high school.
I realized that I shouldn’t be panic and rode my motorcycle very fast at the
time. I should be more
careful to ride a motorcycle and control my emotion when I got wrong way. So,
if you experienced like what I wrote
above, you should ride your motorcycle
carefully and keep calm. Don’t ride or drive like I did. Be careful and keep
calm so you can go anywhere safely.
