Disagree with a Friend I am going to talk about one time when I disagreed with a friend of mine. What happened was, we were discussing which restaurant to have lunch after working out for a couple of hours in a stadium. I preferred to go to my favorite one, which was located in the southern suburb, a little bit far from where we were. But he suggested that we should choose a nearby place. I had good at least 2 good reasons to go to my preferred place. First of all, I really enjoyed its specialty, steamed fish. Even though it was not near, we could go there by bus very conveniently, and it wouldn’t have taken us more 20 minutes on the road. Another reason was that that place might have been cheaper than most other places. Well, after some time of discussion, I gave up finally. I have to what he said was also reasonable. He said we should eat lightly after physical exercise. Plus, I was feeling so tired and hungry and therefore wanted to have lunch as soon as possible. I’d say that day’s disagreement was just a trifle in our daily life. Things like that might happen again in the future. But it did teach me a lesson. When I was younger, I would never have thought that I myself was wrong while others were right.

(A) Disagreement with a Friend

I am going to talk about one time when I disagreed with a friend of mine. What happened was, we were discussing which restaurant to have lunch at after working out for a couple of hours in a stadium. I preferred to go to my favorite one, which was located in the southern suburb, a little bit far from where we were. But he suggested that we should choose a nearby place.

I had good at least 2 good reasons to go to my preferred place. First of all, I really enjoyed its specialty, steamed fish. Even though it was not near, we could go there by bus very conveniently, and it wouldn’t have taken us more than 20 minutes on the road. Another reason was that that place might have been cheaper than most other places.

Well, after some time of discussion, I finally gave up finally. I have had to admit that what he said was also reasonable. He said we should eat lightly after physical exercise. Plus, I was feeling so tired and hungry and therefore wanted to have lunch as soon as possible.
