Essay on a train journey where everything went wrong

One night, last month I did not sleep very soundly. I passed the night tossing and, turning in bed. I had many dreams but when I got up in the morning, I remembered only one of them. In this dream, I had attended a wedding and eaten many kinds of delicious foods.
