My Unforgettable Experience

Selected topic:
The topic that I have selected is “My Unforgettable Experience”.

Purpose of selecting this topic:
I have a variety of reasons for selecting the topic that I selected, but I’m not going to mention any of them right now as that would be a rather boring start to this essay.

These experiences are those that, for better or worse, have moulded me into the person that I am today. These experiences are special, which is what makes them unforgettable.

Everyone has their own share of accumulated experiences, and much of that are things that the individual cannot forget. I’m no exception to this, so without further ado, here are some of the most unforgettable experiences that I have personally gone through.
