FML 37 - Got on the wrong bus

Someday you just want to go home as soon as possible right after work because you are so dead tired. So you drag yourself to the bus stop and get on the bus you have been taking all the time. And yet, it was a little too late to realize that you were on the wrong bus!

Yup, I got on the bus that come at the usual time. Half way through, I realized the bus is heading to a different direction! I thought the bus driver was new and not knowing the route as this happens quite frequently. But no, the driver was right and I was wrong. Thanks goodness, I was familiar with that bus route and knew where it was going, or else I would freak out. At the end, it took me an extra half an hour than usual to get home. Sigh...lesson learned!

Lesson 37 = Open your eyes big and wide and make sure that is the right bus! LOL

FML 35 - No camping on the long weekend

No fires, no booze, no fun?

So you really like camping, and you wait and you wait and you wait all winter, and then you wait for May long weekend to come and then what happens? There is fire ban. And the weather forecast is not looking great. And the rising gas price? Not so great I tell ya. It is like a big wet blanket on the plans.

With the money ti takes for gas now, plus the fire ban, plus the cloudy, raining day, it just seems like not worth it.


Lesson 35 = Don't be dampened by the forecast. If you have been planning it for a long time, you can't call it off at this point because of the forecast or fire ban. Let's head to somewhere else!

FML 34 - Still raining

If you refer to my previous post, I mentioned that it would be unlucky when you forget your umbrella at home when you are outside in the rain.

Right here, hot weather is not in the forecast over the weekend. Saturday will be the warmest day of the week at 20 degree Celsius and cloudiness is expected on Friday and Saturday, while showers are in the forecast for Sunday and Monday.

I think it is okay to have rain one in a while, but what if the rain won't stop? What if it is going to rain for the next 7 days? That is not so great because that means all the outdoor activities will have to be limited too.

Spring and summer are already very short here, so we always want to make the most out of it. And yet now you are forecasting rainy day for the next few days?

Sigh, that is so unlucky!

Lesson 34 = Hopefully Mr. Sun would feel better and greet us soon?

FML 33 - When it is raining ...

And you don't have your umbrella. This is what happened to me today. Even with a jacket with hoodies, it didn't save me from becoming "down soup chicken" ( a term that only Chinese would understand, xoxo) or in English term, I am all wet!

Lesson 33 = Don't forget to check the weather forecast before heading down of the door especially now that it is spring and summer. Bring your umbrella and embrace yourself in the lovely spring shower haha!

FML 32 - Suck at short answer questions...

Well, remember the day when I mentioned how multiple questions suck before? Yes, and now I am complaining about how short answer questions suck too!

Yes, I hate multiple questions because they are very misleading! But on the other hand, it is quite easy.

For short answer questions, it sucks when you have no idea of the topics being tested. When you didn't study, or you somehow forgot, or you just skip that topics. For whatever reasons they are, you just have no single idea what to write on that piece of blank paper! Your monolog will turns into something like this, "Sh*t! I should have read this, how can I forget, I am going to get zero on this! Dang it!"

Lol, tell me you did!

Lesson 32 = Choose whatever you like. Choose multiply questions because they are quicker and short answer to test your true knowledge of the subject.
