Lady Luck's Golden Child

Eh, I'm so lucky weiiiiii...

Case in point, today.

Supposed to be at the departure point 10 minutes before 9.15am to get to Sheffield. Han Sien bought me my ticket, but Mikael's printer wasn't working, so had to go to the Manchester Uni library to print my ticket... but the library was only open at 8.30am... and the uni is like 30 minutes away by bus to the bus station at the City Centre.

So we had a mad dash for the bus. The bus to the city centre arrived at 9.44, I tried calling National Express to amend my ticket but the next bus was for 2.45 pm, so wasn't too keen on that, so decided against it.

By the time we reach the city centre, it was a it was 9.10am and a 2 km dash to the Chorlton Street bus station. Han Sien was like damn worried that I'd miss my bus so dashed ahead of me to kinda like delay the bus for me, and I was sprinting as if my life depended on it, in my super treasured pink and gold 3 inch heels.

Wah, that time don't know the meaning of tiredness, don't know the meaning of pain adi lorr...

Run like siao lang.

Was like thanking God for the sports training in school. Worked muscles I forgot existed.

Of course everyone was looking at us as we ran la... seriously damn fast.

By the time we reached the bus station it was 9.22am... almost lost hope.

But wonder of wonders, the bus was still there!!!!!

Apparently the bus driver had a tummyache.

So we had 10 minutes to catch our breaths. Damn siao. I even had time to buy Evian.

Mikael and Han Sien were shaking their heads at wonderment, saying how they couldn't believe how lucky I was...

Hey, its because I prayed like never before and promised God that I'll be good, ok? Or at least, as good as I can be.

Another incident...

Did I tell you that Mikael doesn't have internet connection and hardly ever checks his email?

Its a wonder that he checked his email and immediately called me about staying at his place... if not I'd still be staying at the Sachas Hotel with no one to bring me around Manchester adi lorr...

So yeah, I'm happy.

I may not win lotteries and whatever not.

But wahey, when it comes to desparate times, somehow, someway, lady luck seem to be smiling on me.

And for that, i'm ever thankful.
