I can't believe I got that apartment. I submitted my application last week, but I didn't think I had a chance of actually getting it. When I showed up to take a look around there were at least twenty other people who arrived before me. Most of them filled out their applications and were already leaving. The landlord said I could still ap- ply, so I did. I tried to fill out the form, but I couldn't answer half of the questions. They wanted me to include references, but I didn't want to list my previous landlord because I had some problems with him and I knew he wouldn't recommend me. I finished listing my father as a reference. It was total luck that he decide to give me the apartment. It turns out that the landlord and my father gone to high school together. He decided that I could have the apartment before he looked at my credit report. I really lucked out!
It was eight o'clock in the morning and time for me to go to work. I looked out of the window. It was raining hard. "You'll get wet through if you go out now," said my mother. "No, I won't," I answered, "I'll take an umbrella." We had five umbrellas in the house, but when I wanted to take one, I found that there was not one that I could use: they all were torn on broken. So I took them all and carried them to the umbrella maker, saying that I would call for the umbrellas on my way home in the evening. When I went to have lunch in the afternoon, it was still raining very hard. I went to the nearest cafe, and sat down at a table. A few minutes later a young woman came in and sat down at the same table with me. When I finished my lunch and was ready to leave, I absent-mindedly took her umbrella and started for the exit. She stopped me saying that I had taken her umbrella. I returned the umbrella with many apologies. In the evening I went to the umbrella maker, to take my five umbrellas and got on the tram to go home. It so happened that the woman I had met at the cafe was riding in the same tram. When she saw me with my five umbrellas, she said: "You've had a successful day today, haven't you?"
