You won’t BELIEVE what a day I’ve had.
6 am Shut off the alarm clock when I promised myself not to switch it off
7.10 am Realized it’s been an hour since the alarm clock rang and rushed to make breakfast
7.30 am Wedges taking forever to fry
8 am Finish breakfast and showered for school
8.30 am Went down to the bus stop to wait for the bus
8.33 am Looked up at the digital timetable and it said “next bus approx. 3 mins.�
8.36 am Still no bus
8.43 am Looks at this other girl who looks as restless as me…She tells me she’s been waiting here since 8.20
8.44 am Notices that Joe is running up the pavement…�The bus crashed! We’ve got 15 mins to rush to school to make the deadline!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!�
8.45 am On your marks, get set, GOOOOOO!!!!
8.47 am Attempted to run for the past 2 mins but the heavy winter clothes & bag were weighing me down…Gave up and walked to a slower pace (keep in mind this means major brisk walking)…Found out that Joe hasn’t slept since last night working on his assignment and he’s been running longer than I have
8.53 am Desperate, we cross the road and at the traffic light, tap on the window of this lady who looks like a student…We ask her if she could give us a ride cause of the circumstances…She says yes and we’re literally scrambling over each other to get in her car
8.58 am We reach the bus loop and Joe goes, “Full speed ahead!!!!!�
8.59 am I’m looking for Joe who’s run off…I have no idea where the hell the assignment box is…
9.00 am I see Kelliher walking out of the door…SHIT! There goes TEN PERCENT of my HARD EARNED WORK just because the FREAKING BUS GOT INTO A CRASHHHHHHHH
9.01 am Hand in my assignment into a box which says “Your assignment is now late. Penalties apply.� Screw it. I give up.
9.03 am Walk grumpily into the Lecture Hall where Kelliher is talking to another student who was in the crash as well and is asking for Kelliher to lay off. No chance.
The first 10 mins of the lecture we got a “You should have handed it in earlier…You should have taken an earlier bus� lecture…*Grrrr* I know that alreadyyyyyy…..
Yeesh. What a total learning experience. I was soooo pissed off at myself. Then had lunch with the Monday gang. The Campus Centre was overloaded to the max…it was the first day back for the Uni students…but managed to get seats…luckiest thing that had happened to me all day…Only when I was sitting there catching up with the guys during the lunch break that I managed to relax…Crazy man…I hate Mondays…
