Believe it or not?

At the previous lesson, we are supposed to write something. This is the question.
Has there ever been a time in your life when someone told you that something improbable would happen and it did? Did the fact that the even was "predicted" cause you to behave differently that you would have otherwise and make it more likely for the event to occur? Or did the event simply seem to occur without any assistance from you?
Recall what had happened and include your feelings when you heard the event predicted and when it occurred.
This is how my story goes.
When I was walking back home, I saw a suspicious looking old man dressed in black kept following me. Then, he suddenly appeared in front of me and said," You will get A1 for all of your subjects and you will receive something surprising from your mother." I felt shocked and surprised. I almost faint as he suddenly popped up in front of me. Before I get to ask him anything, he disappeared without a trace. I did not believe what that old man said at first. He must be crazy! I thought of what he says is just a joke. The next day when I got back all my test papers, I was shocked to see that I got A1 for all my subjects. I usually get F9 for all my subjects. I was shocked and noticed that the old man's prediction were true. I wonder what my parents will give me as a reward. I am very excited and eager to get my reward. While I was on my way home, the old man came to me again and said," You will have good luck on your way home but something unexpected will happen to you." As the old man says I have good luck on my way back home, I decided to walk home slowly and I was still eager to find out what unexpected things will happen to me. On my way home, I picked up an iPhone and one hundred dollars! Then, I saw my mother and I approached her. I told her that I got A1 for every subject but she did not believe me. I showed her all my test papers and she thought that I actually cheated. When we reached home, my reward is getting caned by my mother, just as the old man predicted. Next time when I see that old man again, I would not want to hear anything predicted by him again.
