Wednesday, series of unfortunate events

All happened on the last Wednesday of April, just the other week, all these bad luck if I may say so. It was started by the University program that I’ve been working on, it supposed to be done by now but the bureaucracy tried to kill me with its ultimate weapon, sucks. Dealing with the answer that it hadn’t done yet I went to internet cafĂ© to update my blog and chatted with a friend, but for me, it ended up to be a bad conversation maybe because I was, somehow-unconsciously, had black cloud on my head. Then I wanted to take some money from my bank card, for going home bus fare, but the at-university ATM was “temporary unavailable” so then I headed to the bank which quite far. On the way there I hit a car while I was wondering whether the road I was going to was a one-way. I was so distracted, my mind was somewhere else because it was a stupid accident, not suppose to happen. 2nd accident happened on the way to Balikpapan, me and my cousin, Tari ended up went home with her bro in law, and omigod the driver was a racer, literally. He made the car jumped like a frog, and I bumped on the door handle, it’s just a scratch but still…we almost died twice as we almost hit other vehicles. Serem!

3rd accident, after we arrived in Balikpapan me and Tari went to eat meat balls but on the way there Tari hit an angkot [read: public vehicle], this time I already felt so unlucky so I let her ride the motorcycle. Thank the dear Lord, alhamdulillah, nothing happened to the angkot so we didn’t have to pay huhu. And guess what soon after the thing’s over policemen passed, I said to Tari we were lucky in a bad luck.

My remedy then was The Feeling’s songs…..[Danny boy don’t be afraid shake that ass and misbehave] and some wild screams but I think I’m ok except for this bruise on my leg which I didn’t realize until hours after. Quite nasty.



Btw I came across this writing that I liked from Ryan Ross,

Today I saw cancer, cigarettes and shortness of breath,
This is why I walk to the ocean, swim with sharks and jellyfish.
I may never get this chance again.
This is why if you want to kiss you should kiss
If you want to cry you should cry and
If you want to live you should live
You don’t have to love me. You already did
