Question

10．Yesterday I was in Milwaukee visiting my family，and while I was there I stopped at a café on a particular street corner．It was a corner that brought back a specific（特別的） memory．I had been on this street corner long before．
It was a very cold night in late January，1978．I was halfway home that night after working the evening shift （夜班） at the shopping mall，and I had to change buses．I stood at the bus stop waiting for the bus and just shivered（顫抖）．"Gosh，this is terrible，"I thought．"I need to get out of this．"
I also thought about my young life at the time and where I was going．I felt very upset，because I was not satisfied with it．There was something asking me to make a change．I had just heard of a scholarship opportunity at a small university in San Antonio，Texas the week before，and it really got me thinking．But it was 1，200 miles away from my family and friends     But I sensed （感覺到） that if I stayed where I was，I wouldn't be really happy with myself．I felt like there was something missing．And yes，I was really cold，too．I thought of warm days in January in South Texas．That would be nice．
I was at a fork（分叉，岔路口） in the road that night，and little did I know what that decision would mean to me．As the wind rose and my shivering worsened，my mind suddenly cleared and the path became clear-I had to leave．I was going to San Antonio．Even though I wouldn't know a person，I decided to take the risk and do it，and start over．
    The bus finally came and as I finally could feel my face again I looked out of the window of the bus and dreamed about the new horizons that were in front of me．That day，at that moment，at that fork in the road，I made the most important decision of my life-going to university．And thankfully，it was the right one．What an important fork in the road!
