3 ~ Worst Day Ever

Ever have those days were its starts of bad and then just gets worse? For me, it was this one time when I over slept and ended up late for school. So there I was, rushing everything, then I go to commute. It took forever for a jeep to arrive, and to make things worse, it was steaming hot out. So naturally, once I was on the jeep, I was sweaty and grumpy, and thought to myself: 'How much worse could this guess'.

Rule number one of life: Never ask how much worse things can get, because the answer is always 'it can always get much, much worse. I've had the pleasure of finding this out personally.

Once off the jeep, I get to the front gate and am all eager to get into the school, until the guard points out I'm not wearing my I.D. Panicking, I try to call home to have it brought over soon, but then I find out I'm out of load. Deciding to just take the penalty, I go into school without an I.D. and head straight for class. There were no elevators available, so I had to walk up ten flights of stairs. Naturally, I was rushing, so I ran.

Upon reaching my destined class, I found out that nobody was there. Checking my schedule, it turned out that I was looking at the schedule for the day afterwards, and that I had no classes today. Cursing to myself, I decided to rest for a bit and eat at Jollibee. Can you guess what happened next?

That's right! I LEFT MY WALLET AT HOME.

The money I had on me was only good enough to commute going to school, but the money needed for lunch and going back, I had accidentally left at home, probably because I was rushing.

Frustrated, demoralized, and angry, I had to start walking home, a trip that goes on for five kilometers and roughly an hour and thirty minutes while under the unforgiving sun.

Halfway through, I received a text: My driver was back at school, waiting to fetch me; apparently, I had told him to fetch me, but it mus have slipped my mind because I had no idea he was going to show up. So, having no load to tell him to fetch me, naturally I had to walk back. YAY!

So I ended up back at the start, where my driver was, and finally began heading home. As soon as I got home, I wanted to sleep so badly until I looked through my bags stuff, and realized I had left both my leather shoes and change of clothes at school (it was PE day) and tried to contact my driver to bring me back; unfortunately, he was already gone.

So, that was how my day ended, and I drowned my sorrows in games and ice cream. That day, I learned that if you think something can't get any worse. well, it can. Moreover, always keep your cellphone loaded, or else. Really, cellphones are a gift from god, but only if you can actual use the thing!
