Lucky

I think I've used up all my luck for this year in just one day. Last Friday. Serious.

Waking up at 5.30am isn't really something my body is accustomed to, and so I was in a tired-like-hell-brain-on-screensaver-mode throughout maths lecture. I was fiddling with my phone throughout the lecture so I really have no idea how the following event happened but....

I lost my phone.

I was walking to the bus stop when I realised this, so I bolted back to the lecture theater trying to recover my lost phone. ( I left class <10minutes ago only leh!) But alas, it wasn't there anymore!! :( Knowing I have the tendency to think I've lost something when actually I just left it in some forgotten corner of my bag, I decided to ransack my bag in hopes of finding my phone there. BUT NO. Its not there.

I really, really lost my phone for good.

To be honest I wasn't exactly...as sad/worried/panicky at losing my phone as I thought I would be. I kept thinking that it was a sign for me to change my phone to an iphone. Serious. Especially when I board the bus to my grandma's place, the girl sitting in front of me was fiddling with her iphone. I was like "YES THIS IS A SIGN!!!" Lol I know lah a bit delusional.

But when I got to my grandma's place (at god forsaken Bukit Panjang),I still had to give it one last shot and call my own phone, in hopes of finding it.

*ring ring ringggg*
Male: Hello?

WHOA SOME DUDE JUST ANSWERED MY CALL!

And the following event was just...miraculously lucky. I asked him where he was, so I could find him and take back my phone. I really dreaded the thought of him still being in school cause I just came from there :( But turns out, he was at BUKIT PANJANG PLAZA. How fucking coincidental!!!!! That is like 10mins away from my grandma's place okay. Fucking ridiculously coincidental I swear.

So I arranged to meet him at starbucks, cabbed down, and took back my phone. Haha. He was a really nice dude! He went to call the first person in my inbox (which was Emerle) hoping that she can help me! So nice right. I should have asked for his name or something but I was too ecstatic at finding my phone (and just amazed at my luck) that I just kept saying "Thank you thank you thank youuuuu!!!!"

SHEER LUCK I TELL YOU, SHEER LUCK.
But my luck in the directions department still suck balls. Haha.

I was waiting for buses to go back to my grandma's place at the wrong bus stop for approximately 10mins when I realized it was the wrong bus stop. Then, I decided to walk to the next bus stop (which I assumed was the right one) and wasted another 5mins there before realizing it was the wrong one too. So I walked to the following bus stop (walked 3 bus stops' distance already) only to find it was also the wrong one. I am really freaking stupid. I was obviously on the wrong bus route. So like if the first bus stop is the wrong one, the following ones on the wrong bus route wouldn't be the right one, right? But I was too stupid overwhelmed with happiness to notice that.

And so at the 3rd bus stop, there was an LRT station beside it. Decided to ditch the bus and take a train back instead. But...okay. I cannot figure out which direction to take. *ashamed* But in my defense it's not because I suck at navigating okay!! The arrows for both directions are all pointing towards the same terminus! So like, huh??? Meaning there is no opposite direction for the trains?? I don't understand so I just went up take the train on my right.

But hey hey hey! It turned out to be the correct one! Looks like I still had a little bit of luck left in me that day. :)

So interesting event of the week: How I lost and recovered my phone in the most miraculous way ever. Lol.

On a side note...I am feeling heaps and leaps better than before. When I was phone-less, all of a sudden, nothing that was bothering me for that week seemed to matter anymore.

That feels awesome. :)
