it's okay to miss transport. just catch the next one.

Yesterday, the day started off with:

- Missing a bus by 1 min.
- Then waited at home for 11 mins for the next bus only to miss it by 5 secs - what a pain!
- Waited for another 10 mins for the 3rd bus.
- Arrived at the train station with 2 mins left for the train to depart AND all the sleep-walking humans in front of me. People should learn to keep left if they're walking slow or not in a rush. Sigh!
- Missed the train by 3 secs!
- Next train is due in 15 mins.
- Got into the office slightly after 9 am, usually it's before 8.30 am.
- Time spent waiting for transport was 35 mins while time spent on the tranport was 20+ mins - not impressed at all.
- Bumped into a colleague in the lift. As usual, the opening line was, How is it going?
- I was in a state of despair, still couldn't get over the 35 mins. So I replied, 'Bad.'

Hahaha. Yeah, most of the time people expect positive answers but NO, I just couldn't pretend to be positive. He was taken aback by my answer, we were both mute for a moment, then we burst out laughing. I told him, 'Sorry, I missed 2 buses and a train this morning! Aih~ That's 35 mins gone.'

We parted ways when we got into the office.

And then it's the senior's birthday. Hmm...Libra?  Hahaha.
My experience with Librans is they love putting themselves through tough situations, refuse to choose the easy way out.
No wonder he has the tendency to piss me off again and again despite always getting the 'death' stare from me. Being a Libran, I think he enjoys the stares. Hehe.

So in this office, if it's your Birthday, you don't get a cake.
Instead, you have to buy yourself a cake to serve everyone.
If it falls on a public holiday, bring the cake in on the next business day.



Hehe. Guess who is the drama-maker?
Yucky Blackforest.
Today, I couldn't be bothered to check the bus and train timetables.
The more I check, the more I tend to miss them.
Took me 30 mins to get to the office, including 10 mins of waiting time.
Slow and easy.
I realise whenever we try to get precise with timing, we always end up building unnecessary stress.

Ok. No more checking timetables in the morning.

End of story.
