Sample Answer of Describe a Time when You Lost Something and Then Got It Back

Well, there are a lot of things I have lost in the past, but the one I can remember vividly was my notebook, I was in my final year in nursing school, and I was preparing for my final exams; notes are essential during this period, I took one of my books to the hospital when I was going for clinical posting, then I dropped my bag at the nurse’s station after work o was eager to pick up my bag and return to the hospital.

However, the ward was busy that day, and I could not read anything. On getting there, my bag was nowhere to be found, I looked for it in every nook and cranny, and I also asked people about it, but I couldn’t find it. I was devastated; I left for my hostel; on getting home, I got a call from our chief nursing officer that they found my bag.

Moreover, I do not know how but I was so happy that somehow they found it, I was able to prepare well for my exams, and I came out with flying colours.
