Today was really pretty epic. Headed to paragon for dental, which BTW is totally killing me now. I cannot even bite into a fruit/cherry. That is how pathetic the strength of my teeth is now. But this is also pretty good because all I can do is eat oats. Hahaha. Okay I sound like a horse, which isn't a good thing. But you get what I mean right. 

So anyway, God really held the rain in!! It only started pouring super heavily when I set foot into Paragon. So yay! 

But well, apparently my joy was pretty much short lived. After I was done I wanted to get my nails done. BUT the skies were still crying their hearts out, in torrents no less, so I decided to invest in an umbrella, to you know at least make my way to my nail place. Headed down to market place, got an umbrella, which had some QUALITY CHOICE sticker on it. Quality choice, as if, that useless thing turned out to be the death of me. 

Seriously. And to those who do not already know, (and if that is the case why are you even reading my blog, all my close friends know this) I have a terrible sense of direction. Leaving me in town, alone, and asking me to get from Taka to Ion would possibly be worst than getting your turtle to crawl through toothpaste. Okay, pretty strange analogy. 

So yes, I have a terrible sense of direction and I am not afraid to admit it. Hahaha. 

So anyway, uh I walked in the completely opposite direction. And walked for a good 7 mins, I guess till alar bells started ringing wildly and I realised I was 'navigating' wrongly. Haha. During that point in time I was really pretty glad with my newest umbrella purchase. I mean at least the rain was not getting into my hair :D Spoke too soon though, just as I was walking in the correct direction with the rain getting heavier; the rain was seriously pelting down. 

Worst thing ever, I felt the umbrella slowly descending and it hit me on the head. It was either 
(a) I had a faulty umbrella.
(b) The sheets of rain were made of steel.

That was not all, the handle of the stupid umbrella FELL OFF. It literally fell apart in my hands. Like the knob just dropped off and I had to screw that crazy thing back in myself. I felt SO HELPLESS. Just imagine, the pain in my mouth from the tightening of braces + the cold cold wind and rain drenching my legs+ trying to find my way in town + a FAULTY umbrella on a MONDAY morning = Just Perfect.

But I am really going to thank God because just as I thought there would be worst things to come, the skies cleared (: (: Was so tempted to throw away my  the umbrella, but I figured if it rained after I was done with my nails, and I was umbrella-less I would seriously cry. Hahaha. 

My eventful morning wasn't done yet. My nail shop was not open. Everything was not open. I was like whatttt, are you freaking kidding me. I braved through the rain to get here and I am too early? So I was telling God: Please please let just 1 nail shop be open. AND AND AND there was :D My God is really good (: And you know what else, when I was done with my nails I was so happy I found a shop selling fruits and I ate pineapples and dragonfruit! Made me so happy. AND THREW AWAY THAT USELESS UMBRELLA THING. 
(Y)(Y)(Y)

I am down with a cold now and I still have to prep for tuition tomorrow. Mummy gave me sleepy medication so I do not think I can sustain this much longer, but, I have prelims in 2 weeks, so if I am going to turn in early today I have to kick my gear into really high mode from tomorrow onwards. 

Really hope that if your day have been dampened by the rain, you will still find someway to see the goodness of it all. Like for 1, THE WEATHER WAS AWESOME TODAY (: 
So long as you weren't caught in it without an umbrella. 



This is the kind of support I get from my friends. Hahaha. Love them to bits though they keep me happy. 

Back to work, for a while <3
