Of All The Rotten Luck

I'm thinking that my Monday was already decidedly off to a bad start from the time I woke up considering I found myself looking into the mirror with YET ANOTHER PIMPLE staring back at me.

One ruby per fortnight with the last one
just before the Nuffnang Pajama Party!?
Cannot liddat lah.

-_-

Haiyo. And rotten timing also, wei. I've got meetings with clients all week! Aargh! They're gonna think, "Eeyer, this Copywriter never wash face wan uh." How lah!?


And then, Ah Beng decided to go on EL today, leaving me to fend for the rights of The Cu•bi•cle alone. So un-Zen. What with the non-existence of lala, feng thau music and all things Ah Beng-ish. So tak biasa. Way too quiet also.


Then, this TVC I was working on hadn't enough frames for all I had to say so now... dunno how also. Gotta wait for other people to get back to me or else I've got to squeeze something out of whatever's there. Funny. It's like I was hired to work miracles. -_-


Not enough, Male Ah Lian and I realised UPON PRESENTATION TO SUIT (meaning after brainstorming for hours over a few days, after approval of ideas by creative heads, after preparation of initial visuals and copy, after feedback from creative heads, after making the necessary amendments, and after final approval by creative heads) that we've been working on an inaccurate understanding of an unclear brief!!! AAARRGGHHHH! Frus or not? It's back to the drawing board for us now to prepare for presentation to client TOMORROW. That's in like 9 hours!!! How lah!?


And then, after rushing everything out for all my other clients so that I can focus on what's most urgent for me at this point in time deadline-wise, I went home and then, on the way, MY TAYAR MATI-KOYAK-PANCIT ON THE WAY COS OF A STUPID POTHOLE!!!

Suey or not? I ask you, today I suey or not!?

My only consolation was that I wasn't driving home alone. See, this is why girls should never never ever travel alone at night. Thank goodness I'm smart. And brilliant. And brainy. And brilliant some more. (Yes, I like saying that I'm brilliant. Anyway, cut me some slack lah, okay. I've had a bad day. I have the right to enjoy some extent of narcissism in this post.) Malangnya, I wasn't smart enough to travel with somebody who knows something (anything!) about cars.

Uncle here took half an hour to figure out
how to remove the jack from my boot. -_-

Like pangsai liddat, hor?

Quite fail lor. Thank goodness I'm an AAM member. See, another proof that I'm brilliant. *big big smile* (Okay, fine. My mom's the brilliant one for getting me signed up when I started driving. -_- I give credit when credit's due wan lah.) So, AAM guy came and finished up the job in 5 minutes. No joking, no exaggeration. 5 minutes. FLAT. Uncle cannot fight AAM guy lah. AAM guy wins hands down. But at least Uncle tried, right? It's the effort and the thought that counts. Bravo, Uncle. You did well.

So now, I'm driving around with this:

No rims, no nothing! Just plain botak. So ugly.
Need to get replacement car tire tomorrow.

Haih.

Tuesday had better be better than this laaaa.
Now, I gotta get to work. Ugh, I hate my life.

-_-

IMPORTANT NOTE TO SELF:
Replace car tire that died-ed by. This. Week.
No procrastination allowed. Not this time.
