我想在大雨中快乐地跳舞。
Something freaking incredible happened today and I won't be surprised if Singapore decides to disown me after finding out about this. Yes it is that embarrassing.
Me, a Singaporean of freakingly almost 14 years, got lost in the MRT.
yes yes you saw that right. You guys should go ahead and brand me a 超级笨蛋的大路痴. Cos I seriously am one. Hmmm...let's retrace my steps. You should be all quite familiar with the Singapore Mrt Map right? For the convenience of all, I shall have generously provide you all with a map of the Mrt Railways. Here goes:
As you all should know, I live near Admiralty. I boarded the wrong train going towards Marina Bay when obviously I was supposed to go via the Jurong East way. How stupid was that? Go ahead, laugh at me. I know that you are dying to.
Then the most stupid thing was that I didn't realise it at all and I was happily taking the train that was going in the opposite direction (!!!!) until Toa Payoh then I realised something was amiss. Panicking, I alighted from the train, took a good look at the map (sth like the above) and concluded that the only way to salvage the situation (It was already 2:30 and I was supposed to be there by the very least 3:00) was to take the train all the way to Dhoby Ghaut, change train to the purple line and change train again at Outram Park.
I reached Outram Park and I made another stupid mistake and I took the train towards Pasir Ris instead of Joo Koon (What kind of name is that anyway?) I realised my mistake and stupidly chiong-ed to the opposite train at Raffles Place without looking, assuming that it would take me back the way I came and guess what? It didn't so I stupidly took it all the way to Orchard and then I realised that something was wrong. Hence I alighted and then took it back to Dhoby Ghaut (-.-) Back to square one. I was panicking like siao already. Almost broke down and cried in public. But I didn't ): Hence I continued from Dhoby Ghaut to Outram Park to Buona Vista finally! Chiong-ed like siao through the rain with my umbrella and finally reached my classroom. The time was 3:40+ and what was the actual time I had to be there? 3:00. But luckily sensei was not mad at me or anything! She was so nice and let me off the hook. And guess what, turns out that I was not the latest. Got people even later (?!)
Got back my long awaited test paper for Japanese CA1 and I got 42/50 (!) Abit disappointed, thought that I could do better (I dreamt that I got 45/50 lor )': ) but it's considered not bad when compared to my last year's pathetic marks of 27/50 kind heh.
Today was freakingly cold ): Raining cats and dogs or according to someone rats and cats xD
Today's a special day! And it's a secret why. My lips are sealed!
还有，某人的生日要到了。来不来得及寄生日卡呢。
And I do miss you so much.
