I was in Chicago for a job training when I knew a nearby theatre was releasing a film about saving dogs. However, none of my co-workers could1 time for me. I got cold feet for anxiety about2 the streets by myself at night alone.
But in my hotel room I felt3 and bored. The theatre was only about five blocks away from the hotel. How could I get lost? Hence, I decided to4 it. I gathered my room key and set off. I managed to find the street of the theatre but stopped in shock. The street was full of bikers-lots of very big,5 bikers.
Now I was a woman all alone at night. Warning bells began to sound and my heart6 in my throat. Was I at the right theatre? Had I7 the date of the event?
I finally decided that I would be safer inside the theatre. I hurried into the theatre. As I sat there, heart racing,8 the film, I muttered a prayer to9 my anxieties. A local blues-rock band was the opening10 and their performance drew my attention. Enthusiasm for the band's performance soon11 all my worries from my mind and I began to relax.
After the band, the film began and I understood the presence of the bikers after a conversation with the staff. Being part of an animal rescue group, they had escorted(护送) dogs from New Jersey to Chicago. At that moment, I was struck by the bond that had drawn so many originally12 folks to the same spot. I stayed till the very end and made it to my hotel without any incident, overjoyed that I broke out of the13 I used to set for myself and ventured into(冒险进入) the14 . To my amazement, the15 was one of the best nights of my life.
