the long-gap update is due to my pack schedule. it felt like i had completed my exams after the top. i slept for barely 10 hours for the two days before.
on monday, i had to complete home ec festivials thingy. i had to reserve some books from mpcl and i were to collect them on monday. when i came to collect, i was confused on how many books my card could take. to be on the safe side, i decided to zap the book i had borrowed so i can return it to give space to the ones that i reserved. so i went to the photocopy room with books, 3 library cards & dad's cashcard on my hand. somewhere along, i din realise i dropped my cashcard until i had to insert it to the slot. i searched frantically in my bag but to no avail. then a man entered. the photocopy lady asked me if i dropped my card, i replied yes.
i walked around the library up and down at least twice. i gave up; i decided to buy a new cashcard. unfortunately, there was only a pathetic $3.50 with me. thus, i went all the way back home to take some cash.
upon reaching the library, for the 2nd time, the photocopy lady told me that she saw the man who entered just after me picked up a cashcard which look like mine from the floor before entering the room. she reckoned it was not his as he used another type of cashcard to photocopy. that's why the lady purposely asked me if i had dropped my cashcard earlier on. she din dare to ask him. #$$#$%&*(
when i collected my reservations, i realised it was just enough for my loan even if i hadn't returned the book i zapped. #$&$#&;;];&*&^$%#$!!
told dad i lost his cashcard and had bought a new one. his face showed sheer disapproval with a 'ptsk' sound and sighs, while mum nagged. i was disappointed they din know how much trouble i went through.
spent at least 5hrs on the computer that night. when touching up the slides, it went stuck. i was like...hebatnya dugaanMu. i was prepared to breakdown. luckily, it went on normally after a few minutes.
it was 1+ when i switched off the pc. packed my bag and studied science.
at least dad was soft-hearted enough to return back my $7 for the cashcard. not forgetting
kak iza, who "accompanied" me through the night. she slept at the sofa-bed to wait for me to finish using it so that she could use it. which in the end, she couldn't.
hah!...now i only need a few more bucks to reach $15. that $7 dad returned, some i saved from pocket money, which some of my friends borrowed. guitar...here i come...
whew.
bambam yang kedua :D
