Bad Luck Days

Yup. Today. The first ever Bad Luck Day. Now sit back on that chair, sip that coffee and listen to the story of an old (actually, young) man...

I wake up. Late. In fact, I wake up 30 minutes after my first lecture has started. Rush out. Dad lectures for forgetting to put the bin out for the trucks to empty, I forget to put something in the bin, and mum turns out to be sick. Very sick.

I'm on the train. It seems a fine Melbourne day. Suddenly, the train I catch stops. Notice only 10 minutes after. Announcement: "Sorry passangers... I... I... Er, the train will stop here now due to a fatality... Sorry...". Sit there 3 hours until a representitive tells us to get out of the train to go on replacement buses.

Buses take us to other train lines. Trains massively delayed thanks to the murder driver. EVENTUALLY make it in time to class tutorials (missing out on ALL lecturers scheduled today). Remembered: OH SHIT MY TWO ASSIGNMENTS.

Go back to nearest station. Mum's sick, so ring dad, who is already pissed about me this morning. 15 minnute lecture (the whole car trip). Grab items. Go back (another 15 minute lecture). Go back to Uni.

Clouds gather. Go to class. Remember that 3rd presentation, needed to print out pics for the presentation. Wag class to print out sheets. Find out I need $10 to print all of them out.

Got some time before presentation. Stay in library. Go on eBay. Strike notice (even though I paid and proved payment). Try hopping on gamingforce.com. Wireless network at Uni stuffs up. Boredem.

Presentation. Bored the crap out of others (only good thing today: tutor really liked presentation... OR DID SHE?). Class finishes. Rain.

Trains don't stop at my station. Stand in rain for bus. Bus takes ages to get home. Doesn't stop near house. Walk in now heavy rains. Originally to come home at 5pm, but end up getting home at 6:30.


Luckily for me, though, that was the end of it.

Discuss/vent your frustation of days like these here.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Um... Amen to that?

But anyway, everyone has their bad days and today I was a victim to it. I'm sure there'll be some pretty horrendous Bad Luck Day stories out there worse than mine.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
