water under the bridge I learned a new phrase ”water under the bridge” from an old comedy series, Friends , last night. It means that let bygones be bygones. The following is a practice of using this phrase into a story. After breaking up with Mr. A, I found myself completely refreshed. Going out with Mr. A was like being stuck in a room full of honey, so sweet but so glutinous. I’m so glad that I finally fled out the sticky room and finally had time to lift up my head and look at this world. However, sometimes especially when the night fell, everything looked dim and hopeless, I felt a sudden pang of profound loneliness so I couldn’t fell asleep but thinking the lovely moment with Mr. A. My friends told me it’s water under the bridge and try not to think of him any more. I took their advice and tried very hard to do that. First, I deleted all photos we took to prevent me from recalling the memory. Second, I unfriended him on Facebook to force me not to care about how his life was going. Third, I absorbed myself in preparing for the CPA exam. I really paid a lot of attention on the exam I even calculated several computational problems in my dream. Thanks for my friends advice, I am now a happy single girl. Please tell me how could do better on the above essay. Thanks a lot.
