the bad luck that is like a chain…
Posted by Jason | Under Holiday Life Monday May 5, 2008The room atmosphere was intense… You could almost hear a pin drop…
Everyone, sit at their terminal looking at the door direction as we approach the room…
I feel like i’m walking to an execution ground… obediently went to my terminal and await the upcoming…
time passed.. finally.. it’s about to start.
The female executioner proceed to her desktop, and activated a presentation slide.
We were told what to do… and what not to do…
Within moments, it’s done… the true challenge start now…
Password prompt appeared on my terminal, I nervously inserted the password assigned to me. and POOF
First question….
now.. the moment of truth…
I do, do, do, suddenly… dio stuck..
waaa jia lat~! this qns I dont know how to do~!~!…
Spend abit of time on those questions…..
then finally…
I’ve finished the test….
I hesitated to press end test.
Being so scared, my finger barely touched the screen….
the terminal detected the sensor of my finger,
It smiled wickedly, not giving me a chance to retract my finger,
the terminal started processing the next screen with a huge grin on it’s face…
My heart begin to jump in double the rate, the power surge into the flow of my veins…
and finally… within seconds…
FAILED
A very big word failed in maroon red showed onto my screen…
and thus the story end…
Yeah dude… let me summarise what just happen.. Lol
I failed my Driving Final Theory Test…
It was the start of a bad day…
Just when I thought it couldn’t be worse,
I found myself not not able to withdraw money from an ATM machine because System display “Machine is not dispensing Cash”
And went to another machine that is one road ahead, and this time, a technician is there, pulling wires and drawing frames….
meaning.. the system is totally down….
Then reached my friend’s place…
at first.. 1 Hard disk died…
I was like OMG…
Within moments…
Another died….
I pondered….
am I really the cause?
Could it be that my bad luck aura has seems to affect everything around me?
Then my cousin brought me home…
he ask me… how is my day?
I told him everything..
really man.. dont my life sux today?
It’s been a while since i had one of these days…
ARGG~!~!
Do you think I’m feeling negative now?
read on…
then my cousin said something interesting…
Not that I heard it for the first time.. but it seems appropriate to hear it now.
If you focus bad things, everything bad will be attracted to you…
If you feel good, everything good will be attracted to you..
Instead of focusing on the bad stuff, look at the bright side…
so I started thinking.. and I realized… there are so many good stuff happened that I didn’t saw…
I didn’t saw myself successfully bought a macdonald meal for two,
I didn’t saw myself successfully formatted HER laptop and successfully installed some software onto my com and my mum’s com.
I didn’t saw myself successfully reach the CDC place even though we dropped one stop earlier…
and I didn’t saw myself having to take a ride home on my cousin’s car and successfully reach home peacefully.
And best of alll, I didn’t saw myself able to still carry on to use my laptop now blogging.
So now, even though I feel sorry for my friend that I did that to him,
I mustn’t dwell in it..
I’ll look at the bright side.. and what’s the brightest thing I’m looking at?
I’m Still Alive
