I was walking home one day, walking out of the school compound, when suddenly I was tapped on my shoulder. I turned around and there was Jin Xiang. "Hey Seetoh, have you heard about that accident? " He asked me seriously. I told him no. "What accident are you talking about?" Jin Xiang replied, "An Jie and Yijun got knocked by a car. Anjie is in the hospital now." WHAT? i was very shocked. You read this type of accident in the news, not from your friends.
As Jin Xiang is a bit of a joker, i did not believe him at first. He showed me the SMS he recieved form Wang Xu. I read it and was apprehensive. How serious was the accident? I first called Yijun. Yijun was not home yet, his maid informed me. Next, I called Anjie. He answered the call and i found out form him that he had a fractured collar- bone and will have to stay in the hospital for the next 2 to 3 days.
I was relieved. I also found out from him that Yijun suffered minor abrasions. Well, that is okay then. Nothing serious. I hoped they would be more careful the next time. There is no telling what injuries if the 'next time' happen...

Seetoh, You have used varied sentence structure in your entries which engages your reader. However, there were some errors in tense and punctuation. 23 Ms Fox
