Makings of a horrid day

- waiting 15 mins more than usual for a bus.

- waiting another 30 mins more for buses and taxis

- wanting to call a cab, only to realize you delete all the cab numbers from your phonebook zealously a few days ago.

- waiting 5 min for the operator to get you a cab (after getting the number off a hired cab)

- missing an unhired cab while waiting for the operator with celine dion's "my heart will go on" as the cab company's choice music for holding the line.

- gritting a smile while telling the insistent operator not to bother anymore

- finally getting a cab and told that you have to wait 7 - 10 min when your class has started in a location 5 mins drive from where you are.

- waiting 10 - 15 min for the forementioned cab with 2 unhired cabs going past you.

- paying $12 'cos it's peak hour and there's freaking erp.

- missing 1/2 hr of class (which i was in such a sour mood i decided to stone in the lib instead)

- no breakfast kaki, just a growling protesting stomach.

- buying the wrong set lunch ($0.40 more!)

- wanting to print stuff alongside a bunch of others in smu with one working printer 'cos the other 2 had crashed, only to have it crash as well.

- missing the bus

- getting off at the wrong stop

- trying to reach a particular location for 3 hrs but to no avail 'cos all the lines are not connected properly. then the people who can help pass the msg will be at that particular location later than me.

- headache, cramps and a whiny tuition kid who thinks i'm going to draw his geometry diagrams for him.

- insistent people who repeat themselves over and over again on the phone and explain themselves over and over again when i'm obviously desperately trying to get off the phone 'cos i'm in the middle of smth.

- horrible "hyped up" food when i'm expecting just plain rice and a nice bowl of hot soup.

beat that, i tell you. beat that for a crummy day. all happening in chronological manner too, starting from 7.40 a.m. and i had curry stains on my pants. how bad? let's just say today's the day i see my eye candies. note. it's candies.. not candy. 4 of them. and still a bad day. but it's finally how things fall in place. 'cos when i was looking through my msn list, a friend's nick was:

"when things are not going your way, it doesn't matter. 'cos the greatest problem has been solved."

how true. but i still feel crummy. i want my hot soup. clear soup with cabbage, long beans, potato, carrots, onions, corn kernels, tomato, celery and peas. steaming in my face kind of soup. those that i can burn my tongue with. haiz. hot soup hot soup..
