this has been a sad week for me :(

firstly, germany lost the semis. and the worst part is that they were almost almost into penalties but italy came from behind and snuck two on them in the last TWO MINUTES of extra time. the first goal broke my heart; the second just pissed me off. FUCK ITALY! i hope a plane flies into del piero's face and smashes it.

the second thing is that i failed my driving test yesterday. i expected this but nonetheless it was unfair because my tester had a moustache and as we all know i am scared of men with moustaches and was hence unable to function properly. apart from that, i guess it was partly my fault when i made the car roll down the hill cos i was half-assed about releasing the clutch after the handbrake. then i panicked and let go completely, which caused the friggin car to stall right in the middle of the bloody hill. at which point, i knew it was a lost cause. anyway after that incident i was kinda shaky but luckily i managed to get through the rest... that is, until i got to this junction which said "turn left on red". so since it was red, i did just that and turned left. how was i supposed to know to stop before the line and check first before turning??? it was clear anyway and i was in gear 4! road rules are so anal :(

anyway, given the horribleness of the week, the only good things were the zara and mango sales. i am in desperate need of retail therapy now! after all, shopping is a proven cure for most ailments ranging from gastric to mild fevers. for me at least :D on monday i met walker for a girls day out and we were quite productive (as always) so i'm feeling even more sad now that she's leaving for england tomorrow :( who will dispense invaluable relationship advice to me now? and who will i scheme and strategise with? sigh. it sucks that she has to leave but i will have to focus on the task she has entrusted me: Keeping An Eye On The Boyfriend. heehee ;)
