The sky looked dark, just like the face of a middle-aged desperate housewife. I was walking down the street step by step, looking at my toes, and without any destination. I didn’t care where to go even this road was leading to the hell. I just felt so frustrated. What a bad day!Early in the morning, I collected the money from the schoolmates to save one of my friend’s life. She was badly ill and needed a large sum of money to pay for the medical cure. All the people were so kind that when I counted the money in the middle of the day, there was already more than 60 thousand yuan beside me. I was so moved and happy. I took the money to the nearest bank. Then, bad luck began. When I was waiting to cross the street, singing some unnamed songs, suddenly, a motorbike flied past me just like a flash. What happened? The bag in my hand was snapped before I realized it. “Oh my GOD! My bag! My money!” I couldn’t help screaming. The robbers flied away so fast that within 2 seconds they were out of sight. It came so unexpectedly that I didn’t know what to do except thinking of committing suicide to make up for my mistake. Unfortunately, I’m not brave enough. I felt so sorry.
I was wondering aimlessly on the street when tripped up by a flowerpot and a large bag beside it. I was attracted by the flowerpot at the first sight as if it had a sort of magic power. I picked it up and found a few lines of words carved on the bottom. It read “It is a magic flowerpot. You can gain what you plant in it, particularly effective for money. ” What a fairy tale! I couldn’t believe it until I opened the bag. Sparkling! A lot of gold coins were sparkling! I can get the 60 thousand yuan or even more money back and my friend got saved! With the exciting thought, I took the flowerpot home and spent the rest of the day planting gold coins and gaining their “sons” and their “grandchildren” and so on. The next day, I took the money to the bank and sent 100 thousand yuan to my friend.
After coming out of the bank, I suddenly realized that I could make money myself, with the help of the magic flowerpot. I began to plan how to spend the money. I wanted to buy a lot of expensive things for my family. I loved them so much. I hope to have them live a better life. I’d like to build myself the biggest library in the world. Books are more and more expensive now. Without a large sum of money, I can’t afford them at all. If there was a stadium it would be better. I can play tennis which is my favorite sport in it whenever I like. And, I’d love to sponsor the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. I want to show a brand new Beijing and a brand new China to the world. And I also want to make a trip to the Venus. A writer once said “Men are from Mars, and women are from Venus.” I am really curious about the planet my ancestors lived on.
Anyway, when I took out the flowerpot for the second time, I had already had so many plans in my mind. I even didn’t know to put which one on the top of the list. At last, I decided to realize my dream one by one. “ er….I wanna a pizza.” I whispered. But the money didn’t turn up.” That’s strange. I want to buy a new shirt.” The flowerpot stood still. I shook it to make sure if it was awake and went on with my wish. “ What about a travel? A library?......” Nothing happened.” Oh, that’s a pity. It seemed it worked only for one time. “I once wished I could help the people living in the west of China.” I said to myself. Unexpectedly, the money turned up! That’s so strange! Soon, I found out that this magic flowerpot didn’t work only for one time but only for the time when its master wanted to do other people a favour. That is to say, I still have to work hard to satisfy my luxury needs. Oh, no! It goes exactly like a real fairy tale: no evil thought, only the good ones survive.
