today has been such an incredibly bad day for me :(

at midnight this morning i saw a vacancy for my driving practical on the 25th of this month, which is great because my original retest date was on the 25th of october which is like 2 months later. so i quickly jumped on the chance to book it, which meant cancelling my prior booking first because you can't hold 2 at the same time. but the moment i clicked the button to confirm the new date, the bloody server lagged on me and took like five years to process it. by that time, i got another message box popping up saying 'Sorry, there is no vacancy for that slot!' and then when i tried to go back to book the first date which i got, that one had been taken up too. which means, i now no longer have any test date :( what a great way to kick start the day...

then, i woke up this morning with a sore throat, a tiny voice, and a runny nose. after 3 glasses of water before breakfast, eating bread still felt like stuffing razors down my throat. plus, i spent half the time in school today frantically gripping my nose with a tissue. and because of my throat i had to sacrifice the morning coffee, so i had to keep awake during lecs and tutorials without caffeine. i think i must have yawned at least thirty times during anatomy tutorial so i bet my professor hates me. a good first impression, that.

when break finally rolled around, i managed to sit down for about one minute with my food before i realised some brown splatter on my bag and my wallet which was sitting near the top of my bag. it took me a few moments to register that i had BIRD SHIT ON MY WALLET AND MY NEW BAG. and it wasn't even like solid hard white shit which is marginally cleaner, it was bird diarrhoea. omg, it was disgusting. and the best part is that today is the FIRST day that i brought my new pink bag to school. of all the places the bird could have taken its shit, it had to do it directly over the opening of my bag, so that it landed on both the outside and the inside and my wallet. and, of all the days this could have happened to me, it just had to be today. can you believe my luck?!!

finally, to make things worse, we had anatomy practical right after lunch. so i got to spend one and a half hours in the company of cadavers with my food still sitting undigested in my stomach. at first i was quite freaked by the thought of the dead bodies, but when i saw how they were all yellowish and skinless and barely recognisable, i just felt sick. then of course the smell of the embalming fluid started overpower, but here i lucked out because of my nose malfunction. this luck stopped however, when my professor flipped off the cadaver's rib cage and started poking about the thorax and abdomen. as he was fingering the intestines and spleen and trying to show us how nerves feel different from blood vessels, he inadvertently flicked all these little pieces of tissue off them, and guess which direction the little pieces of tissue flew? so, while i have to say that my first experience with dead bodies wasn't as bad as i had anticipated (and here i suspect that it's only because my day could only get -so- bad), it certainly was a less than pleasant afternoon.

anyone had a worse day?
