An embarrassing episode
I saw many pictures that was taken in England from my lap-top today. The photograph brought back many pleasant memories of mine. It's the frist time I took a train in England's country. The frist train was comming but I didn't got in, because the ticket window was not opened. So I was waitting there for the next train. It was so cold in winter, so I went to a shop to buy a pair of gloves. When I walked out from the shop, I saw a train went through away! That's right, I miss the train again! Eventually I got it, when the guard ask me:'' Where are you form?'' I said: ''Taiwan!" He was actually taken aback and stop to laugh:''OH~ that will be very expensive!'' Then I know why he laughed at me, he was asking which stop I came from. I thaught why I said that, because when I go abord, people always ask my nationality so that I give this answer to him. Because of this reason the guard he know me, so when I met him he always give me a smile and give the ticket to me!

Good! Pay more attention to verb tense. If the event happened in the past, use past tense.
