Friday the thirteen
I did not realised yesterday was friday the thirteen until someone mentioned it late at night, when it was about to pass. The even more scarier thing was that yesterday night it was a full moon? So maybe we should expect werewolf or were-rabbits to appeal? In any case, it was not really a supposedly unlucky day for me, it just turn out to be pretty long.
Woke up to my brother's chatting with my mother in the middle of the night. The kind of noise level he was projecting his voice, anyone would have woken up. Waited for them to finally get tired and go to sleep before I had the whole living room to myself and time for some studying. But here comes the first unlucky thing (if you want to consider it so), I on my TV and it was "liang zhu", or butterfly lovers. An interesting show, so there goes one hour. The next hour came "pi li huo", which is a long Taiwan serial which I was watching when I was still NSF. But since I only started watching the show then more towards the ending of the whole serial, I found it interesting to watch the repeat which was a much more earlier episode. So there goes my next hour. I went back and caught some sleep after that. No studying done.
Just before I left for school, I asked my brother to borrow me my thumbdrive, (it sounds weird, it is my thumbdrive) (and here is the second) and he told me he lost it. Another search attempt only suceeded in me wasting my time and breadth on him. So I had to buy another thumbdrive for him, this time the cheapest on the shelf.
Reached school at eleven plus and wanted to print some notes. So I promptly downloaded the stuff and tried to print it from the printing room. To my astonishment (here comes the third), there was an error with my cashcard. I tried to print again after my lectures end at 4 but again it was another futile attempt. So I still have not got my notes printed.
The lectures today was all right, perhaps the more important thing was hearing the fixtures of my kids in between the lectures from Ms Toh. I got the sequence I wanted, the first 2 match against the stronger teams in the division which is all right even if we lose, then try to win the rest. It is one piece of news I wanted. But perhaps in a way, it also means I have to skip a certain number of lectures (number four) as all the matches falls on Mon or Fri, which will certainly clash with my lectures.
Went to watch RH vs KR after selling my soci textbook online and a short dinner with Lj. But an interesting thing to go with it. Hw was the one who wanted me to go and see his match and provide some advice during the game. So he called me when the match was supposed to start and I was at Lj's hall room (Eusoff) with him taking his stuff. Hw was like "Huh? You're playing for Eusoff?" Kind of remark when I told him I was at Eusoff at that time.
Watch the 2 games, RH vs KR and EU vs SH, both teams (here is number five) I support (because my junoir or ex teammates are there) lost. But it was all quite expected. The audience lineup was quite interesting though, with me managing to get Xd down for Lj's debut as libero, a ex hc junoir of me, a chs snr (not volleyball) who I got to know through the volleyball senoirs and an ex hc class mate of mine who was there to support her bf (KR). Spend more time talking to the latter as she was the only one all alone there and who knows nuts about volleyball.
Here comes number six. After the matches I rushed to queensway with Xd to pick up the jerseys for my kids. Kept going on the wrong roads and spent quite some time before finally reaching the place just in time before the shop closes. The return journey was reasonably smooth though.
Went back to Eusoff (Clarification: I do not live in hall) to do some service for Lj to practice his first balls. It feels really awkward for someone wearing jeans and slippers to appear out of no one and start to serve underhand floaters? But since my new year resolution is to be a good person, I will try to accede to people's request if it is within my ability.
Supper, which was after lj finally is done with his training, makes the start of the new day!
Tomorrow is another day.
