unlucky day
Tuesday, July 29, 2008 @ 10:13 AM
Of all the unlucky days I had, today's officially declared the worst.
On the scale of 1 to 10, today is probably -2!
And it is only 10.14am!
This morning, I had an appointment with the dental clinic over at Lake City Way at 8am.
Thus, I set the alarm at 7am, because I take an approximate of an hour to get ready. When the alarm rang, I really wanted to smack myself for setting the appointment at 8 cause I was exhausted due to the night before. STILL, since I, Stephanie Juniarta, am so dedicated to what I promised, I indolently forced myself to jump out of the bed and get to the shower.
Somehow, after I finished everything and was ready to leave, my LOVELY BROTHER, whom were supposed to drive me there (and we've been discussing this since last week!), just woke up AND decided to take a quick shower of let's see.. um, 10 hours?!
The receptionist of the dental clinic called me at 8.10am and told me that I was late blah blah, and therefore she had to charge an extra $50 blah blah, and there is no way I could make it if I leave my house right now blah blah.
Basically, I had to pay an extra $50 with a bonus of remorse stuck on my mind.
In addition, since the receptionist told me that there is no way I could make it, my brother went to work. 10 minutes after he left, the receptionist called and told me that I could come right now cause the patient whom had made an appointment at 9 cancelled it. Thus, I decided to save my $50 (HELLO, $50 could buy me a shirt!) and go for it, by the wonderful transportation called BUS. In case some of you do not know, I happened to be really bad at taking public transportation, except cabs of course!
When I went out of the house, it was raining. (Seattle's really cold when it's raining) Thus, I took the car's key and was determined to drive the car... until I slotted the keys in and realized that the Mercedes in USA and Asia is totally different! The wiper, the left/right signal lights.
TSK, I guess bus was my only choice.
So I waited for the bus, whilst holding the striking yellow umbrella with cold wind blowing against my bare legs. Finally, I got up the bus which arrived 2 minutes late!
I WAS SO PROUD OF MYSELF at that point of time because firstly, I took a bus, and secondly, I am going to save $50!
Inexplicably, I GOT LOST!
I mean, I can't believe I got lost despite the directions that I had spent like 15 minutes analyzing at! So I had to wait for another 10 minutes for the other bus to come and take me home while I pathetically called the irked receptionist in the dental clinic and told her that I could not make it.
WHEN I FINALLY ARRIVED HOME, I was horrified to find THIS...
YES, my white pants splattered with ebony spots due to the muds on the ground!!I nearly punched myself but that would be making the day worse and thus, I resolved to changing my whole attire which greatly saddened me! I mean, I had planned this outfit the day before because I wanted to match my white pants with my new Vans shoes!
I hope the day would get better! PLEASE DO~~
