turning point of childhood

             "TURNING POINT OF MY CHILDHOOD"
             Childhood is the best and unforgettable time of a person. It's the time when we can feel happiness and love from people around us. However, as time goes by, we all grow up and there are a lot of changes inside of us. I personally experienced an unforgettable event that became a turning point of my child hood.
             This happened in Vietnam when I was nine years old. I was a stubborn daughter and my parents had a hard time getting me do something for them. I never did it right after they told me. I always waited until the fifth time they reminded me. One day, I begged my mother to let me go to the supermarket with her. First, my mom would not let me go with her because she knew how good a troublemaker I was. I started to use my little persuasive tragedy, which always worked. I tried to make a cute and innocent face to beg my mom: "Mommy, please let me go! I will be good. I promise to follow you everywhere you go and I will not cause any trouble. Please mommy!" Finally, she let me go.
             She held my hand while we were shopping. On the way going up to the next floor, suddenly I saw a pretty moving doll in the store downstairs. Immediately, without a word, I let go of my mom's hand and ran fast downstairs. Unexpectedly, I slipped and fell down on the long stairs like a heavy ball rolling and bouncing down the stairs. When I stopped, I felt so dizzy. I saw a blurry view, then it turn into black. I could not remember anything that happened next.
             When I opened my eyes, the view looked strange and the smell of this room was weird. That room was filled with the medicine smell. I can feel the different between this bed with my bed at home. The mattress and pillow was softer, but the side if this bed was smaller than my own bed. I was covered in thin white blanket. Next to my bed was a little drawer with all kind of medicines and band-aids on top of it.
