Each year the college arranges a special dinner for the students to celebrate Christmas before they leave. Because the Christmas holiday started on the 17th of December, they held the Christmas banquet on the 15th, the Monday before the students left to go home. All the students dressed up; so I went in a suit and tie.
Later that night, when we returned to the dorm, a friend of mine brought out some fireworks to play with. I hadnˇt changed out of my dress shirt, but I foolishly joined them in playing with the fireworks. Suddenly I felt something warm on my skin, and I looked down and found that some sparks had landed on my nice shirt.
Although I was not burned, the sparks had burned a few holes in my shirt. Because the shirt was fairly expensive, I was very upset, but my friends all just laughed at my mistake.
