I had a bad birthday.Date: 11 Jul 08Location: OfficeTitle: FrustrationThe morning and afternoon was kind of good. Had a good meal of Nasi Briyani @ Teban Gardens with my colleagues. Got a gift from one of them and it was really a nice pair of earrings she got me.Back in the office after 2, I tried work as fast as possible so that I could leave office on the dot rather then doing the bloody OT sh*t again. Unfortunately, the nut called me at 5.15pm and told me to finish off a task for him, which actually isn't very simple. I needed some time to do it. At least, an hour and a half. BOPIAN LOR! (no choice lor) Had to do it. Another round of OT! While doing that, in between the finance department came to me and ask me to print something. Haiz. Rush Hour Boy! In between that a supervisor came to me asking about a progress in some office issue. I know this is multi-task sh*t but then, ON MY BIRTHDAY???? Why can't I just leave in peace???? Grrr..Date: 11 Jul 08Location: Clementi West St 22Title: Hit by a hard surface.While crossing the road towards the bus stop, I happen to check my phone if I had any miss calls. All of a sudden, my phone was beeping,"Battery Low" and it just went dead. When that happened, I knocked against something so hard that my sandal felt loose all of a sudden. As it is my phone's dead. Deep down in my heart I was praying for it not to tear. I manage to get into the bus and got a seat. But something told me to check my sandal and toe that hit that hard something. True enough my nail chipped and my sandal's mid-section was looking very thin. I kept on praying for it not to tear.Date: 11 Jul 08Location Clementi Station Taxi StandTitle: There goes the Sandal.My bus stopped directly at the Interchange itself. I manage to walk fast towards the MRT station. I was still having my doubts on whether I should go somewhere to get a pair of slippers or something. So I thought maybe I can actually take the train back and head to the mall to get a pair. Unfortunately, I just diverted my direction towards the Taxi stand instead. My Sandal tore. MY SANDAL TORE!!!..Well if you guys think that was the ultimate, read this. I manage to get into the taxi queue by dragging my foot to the taxi stand. It was really embarrassing when those foreign workers were looking weirdly at me. When I got the cab, I just picked up my sandals in my left hand and dashed into the cab barefooted. I was happily thinking that I got a cab which I could pay by nets and to my further disappointment, I didn't get a cab which accepted it and also, I didn't have loose cash with me. DAMN!I told the driver to bring me to the nearest ATM machine to withdraw the cash and drop me back home. I had no choice but to ran barefoot again to the ATM machine counter. Thank god it was just a couple of people in the queue. So it wasn't that bad of an embarrassment there. After withdrawing, I ran back and headed home BAREFOOTED again.What a birthday I thought. Really. But anyways, end of the day my parents heard my story and they thought of bringing me to a nearby coffeeshop to have dinner. That did made my day a lil better.2008 is seriously a weird year. My Opinion.
