When I woke up this morning from a 6-hour sleep, never did it cross my mind that it was going to be such a fateful day for me.
After taking my refreshing bath and putting on my favourite pair of earring, I was almost convinced that today is gonna be a good day. But everything started going wrong the moment I stepped into the bus terminal.
I was shifting my weight between my legs and turning by body, when the grip on my fingers suddenly felt loose. Before I could even do anything, papers slipped, away and out of my transparent holder. And down they went, down, down with gravity, and alas, found themselves floating comfortably on top of a BIG muddy puddle - a dirty evidence of the downpour last night (or this morning, rather).
I could not believe my eyes. What fell out were pieces of foolscap bearing fruits of my hardwork and my evidence of effort spent on completing tutorials. Difficult ones they were, nerve-wrecking all the same. And after a whole long night of battle, they ended up in a big muddy puddle.
WELL DONE!
So, curses after curses I let out under my breath with every single piece of paper I picked up. I must have broken my personal record of hissing the most number of 'shit's in one morning - within 1 minute, to be exact. When I arranged them together, disgusting water was still dripping out of that freaking mass of drowned matter.
When I thought that was the end of a horrible day, it was just the beginning. Embarrassing stuffs such as not being able to press the bell to stop the bus, which later I found out that I was pressing the wrong buttons, nearly walked right into the glass doors in front of the library and dropping my matric card in front of so many people, and leaving my cashcard in the photocopying machine and conveniently forgot everything about it, all happened shortly after my adventure with the puddle.
I say, Murphy must have loved me so much that he specially imposed his much condemned 'Murphy's Law' on me.
Because, everything that could go wrong, went wrong.
So much for radiating positive aura by feeling good when I woke up early this morning.
