Oh my god! I just cannot believe i can be so "suay" (hokkien for "unlucky") in just a day! The thing is, it happens on 20 August 2008 (20-08-2008!)

The first half of the day was fine until the time when i knocked off! I was supposed to leave my workplace around 6pm or so but because i have classes on in the evening, i decided to leave around 15mins earlier.

So, i left at around 5.45pm and made my way to wait for the free shuttle bus at NUS. Not bad, shortly after i arrived at the bus stop, the bus arrived and i boarded. I alighted around 3 stops after that and i made my way opposite to wait for bus 151.

Then things began to happen from here. The first bus came around 5mins later but i couldn't board because the bus was packed and the bus driver just refused to stop.

I thought the next bus will be approaching soon. By this time, it was around 6.15pm. I waited and waited... patiently. 6.30pm... 6.40pm and it finally came at 6.55pm! I was cursing and swearing but i thought ahhh never mind... but guess what happened next?
Just 3 stops later, the bus broke down! Arghhhh! The bus seemed to roll backwards when the driver half-clutched and he had to make a phone call to check with the bus service personnel but to no avail. This lasted for another 10mins or so. The thing is, the bus broke down at nowhere in the middle of the road and there was quite a distance away to the next nearest busstop. But we had no choice. The bus driver finally opened the front door and allowed us to alight after someone had shouted that we were late. I reckon most of them were also students from SIM.

Dammit. Wasted my 60cents and my TIME. By now, it was 7.30pm! My lesson was supposed to start at 7pm! I was so frustrated with the episodes that happened one after another. My plan to reach school early and have a peaceful dinner was in vain! (Thank god, i didn't have any test on the day)

I tried to control my anger and hope things will go smoothly after these. I walked to the next busstop. Too bad, there is only one bus service to school. About 10mins later, the bus came and i reached school nearly 8pm! @#$%%^&^%$%$!!

Never mind about all these. I endured. I decided to make my way to the canteen for a quick bite. GUESS WHAT AGAIN. The canteen was closed! (It's supposed to close after 8pm) See how unlucky i was? In the end, i have to go downstairs to buy some snacks instead. By the time i arrived outside my lecture room, 8.15pm. Half-time already. Break time.

So i only have my lessons from 8.30pm onwards. Really a waste of my trip. This is not the end. After my class ended, i missed my bus!!! (which usually i don't). Sigh. I have to waited for another 10mins again.

So you see, the second half of my day is all about waiting. Even earlier on, i have difficulty logging in to blogger! My access was denied a few times!

From my workplace to school is so near yet i took more than 2 hours to reach.

My friend said maybe i should go temple and pray -_-
