It has been a long rainy gloomy day.
With no umbrella. Just my hoodie.
And had a brain-challenging afternoon trying to figure BPA out with Catherine. Fried my brain.
And went to see Trevor, my lecturer, without appointment, I was just too eager to get help.
But of course he declined, he said he wasn't free. He looked pretty grim.
And I thought, "Oh no, who else? Just spare me 3 mins?" I have all my questions in my mind.
Then I decided to put it aside.
Then I tried to figure my accounting lecture for today as I wasn't paying the least bit attention. It did make abit more sense.
Next up was Macro, and thank god Azy was there. After lecture, I decided to call it a day, escaped the library and went to MyCube for coffee with her, hot soothing mocha, decaf of course, I needed my sleep tonight. Had a relaxing session. While the rain persisted.
And then I squeezed my way through the tram and train rides, not having a seat more than half the time. Peak time. Time to go home for working class people. Wanted to do Sudoku but digressed when I noticed the "expert" level.
I finally secured myself a seat in Ivanhoe, and took out my lecture notes, which later proved a bad idea, as the words were dancing and leaping joyously before my eyes. So I put them away and took my Ipod out instead, I needed Josh Groban, only to realize the battery died on me. T.T
So the last resort was to sleep and there I went nodding away, sometimes knocking into the lady beside me, and occasionally nodding backwards, hitting the bar. *ouch*
And I slept even more in the bus, so much more that I missed my stop. T.T Thank god it wasn't too far a walk from home. Just dark.
Finally, sluggishly, I dragged myself up the slope leading to my house and as I drew closer. I knew it wouldn't disappoint me, and I braced myself for a warm, cozy welcome when..
I can't find my keys.
Oh great.
Then I called my brother and thank god (again), he was on the train, 4 stops away from Eltham, which according to my estimation, would just be a good 15 minutes away.
And I thought, ah this ain't that bad, though pitch black, at least it wasn't that cold.
Of course one shouldn't be too hopeful.
Barely 3 minutes later, it started to pour heavily and the winds started to pick up. I paced up and down the platform to keep myself warm. And put Jay Chou's songs on loud speaker, to keep me company. =) And watched some video clips of my baby sister singing. =')
But my hands were freezing and my shoulders started to give way.
Darn winter.
Darn windy rainy gloomy winter.
THANK GOD it only lasted for 40 minutes.
My brother came back and I found my keys in his car. Received a fair bit of lecture for being so careless.
But I was so overwhelmed, I didn't mind, I knew, nothing could go worse, nothing else existed to deter me further,
I was truly home. =)
