Silly Bad Day

Have you ever had a bad day in your entire life? The feeling you have the moment you wake up, all negative and neutral. No chirpyness and all you think of is to go home and have another 4 hours of sleep?

Today is my silly bad day.

It started the moment i woke up. I felt so tired and groggy to go to work. However, i managed to drag myself out of bed and choose a sensible set of working clothes. I also had a bad hair day. My hair decided to be limp and nothing i did will make it look nicer.

Surprisingly, work didn't harm me that much. No pressure, no late work pile, cleaner table and a smile on my face as the clock ticked 8pm. All i could think of is to go home and watch Sex and the City.

But, my two female colleagues decided to tempt me with their shopping plan. I refused them so many times until i couldn't take their whiny and 'please' faces anymore. i called up my baby and asked for his permission on the shopping thingy. i was super glad when he said 'No. You should go home and have a good rest. It's late already.'

Their whinings and 'please' faces went on even further. I was so convinced that I would be going home straight. Boy was i wrong. We were all standing in a triangle position at the Raffles City Mrt Platform, waiting for respective trains. The moment my train arrived, one of my colleagues held on to my hands and stopped me from entering.

The other one joined in after she finished calling her boyfriend. I almost fell flat on my face. It was crazy. I knew I couldn't win over the trap fight. They also managed to block both exit in the train. Crazy.

The moment i reached Orchard, i sms-ed my baby (knowing deep inside he would explode). And he did. He took it badly and i was bruised.

Both my colleagues felt instant guilty about forcing me to come along and kept on hugging me coz i refused to look excited or happy during the shopping trip.

Knowing my sis was also in town with her own family, i decided to hitch a ride from her. So half an hour later, i met up with her. Here goes the miserable half of my bad day.

My bro-in-law decided to take the cab and we went to Wisma Atria to queue for the cab. 15 minutes later, no movement with the queues as most of them 'booked' for the cabs. So we moved to Paragon and queue up for another 20 minutes. Still the same as previously. I was so about to book my own cab when my sis kept nagging saying the extra charges were too expensive. Come on lar.. $3 per cab x 2 = $6 and there was 6 of us, $6/6 = $1. Extra $1 pun kira ke?

But i didn't want to take the cab alone. So we all walked back to the Mrt Station and patiently took the train to Tampines. By the time we reached Tampines, i couldn't be bother with anyone. I told my sis that i'd be taking the cab home, not the bus.

Luckily mom wasn't angry. my only concern now is my baby. I am sorry that you think i didn't respect your permission. No matter how angry you are thinking that i am stupid or silly or dumb or irritating ridiculously paranoid, you have no right to say that line. You know what i mean. Now it is my turn to feel extra disappointed in you.
