konnichiwa,
I need a breather...i need more time...i need more slp....i want to watch anime, but i can't! WHY? cos work load is piling up expotentially, design project and lab report to be completed, tutorials and revision to be done asap. exams coming. holidays coming. Intersem coming. Mus clear PE and hopefully can learn Japanese 2 or Korean 1. haha.
Gosh...oh ya, last week, i bought cheap printer cartridges from the school fair. I think i bought 12 cartridges for $20. It was such an irresistible deal tt I sucummeb to temptation. I happily walked around with the cartridges in a plastic bag, (pls, i'm no aunty, although i love shopping) and went for lecture. Apparently i forgot all about the cartridges that were lying on the seat next to me when i went off for other classes. It was only after 4 hours later, when i was walking back to hall, a thought striked me.
"what a deal i had today, 12 cartridges for $20" i tot to myself.
"eh, where's the plastic bag? shit"
I tried to retrace my steps, and i finally decided that i left it in the lecture hall. So i went back to the lecture hall, hoping to see a glimpse of the white plastic bag lying on one of the seats. But, alas, to my disappointment, it wasn't there! I knew it, somebody must have thought today was his lucky day and grabbed the plastic bag and used it!!! so evil!!!!
I began to get angry @ tt person who took my cartridges, and started wondering why some pple just can't return lost items to the lost & found counter and mus claim their ownership to items that aren't theirs. I lost an mp3 player with sony earphones in school before. My fault, bcos it must have dropped on the ground when i took my stuff out, and i didn't notice, until i went home. I lost my ez link card just last year and received an earful from my mother who scolded me for being so careless. But i really dunno where it went to. I lost my cashcard just this month, i was photocopying stuff in the library and forgot to take the cashcard out of the compartment, left it there and forgot all about it, until i realised why is there a card missing in my wallet. Now, i lost my newly bought printer cartridges. Felt like an asshole. Let money fly all over the place just lidat.
I think i prayed to God, asked him if he was really watching over me, then help me get back my cartridges. nah..i was thinking, God wldn't be bothered about a backslider like me, just try my luck.
Den i decided to sms one of my friends who sat behind me during lecture and he offered to help me ask his friends whether they came upon the cartridges. And i dunno if it was God's doing or just fate or coincindence, one of his friends admitted tt he took the cartridges and was willing to buy 6 cartridges from me as he had oredi used one of the cartridge. I think i nv felt so much relief b4, and everybody keep telling me i'm damn lucky tt i managed to trace back my cartridges and that the person was honest and not greedy.

Well, I dunno what to say. But i think God is real. Maybe i should go to church more often. and God answers prayers. haha. well, yes, i attribute every single miracle tt happen in my life to God whether i like it or not, cos He really exists and He watches over me.
