Today was a bad day, but it was pretty fun anyway.
It was a bad day because everything that could go wrong for me went wrong.
1. The 190 went past the stop when I was rushing to get to school on time because nobody flagged it down EVEN THOUGH HELLO COMMON SENSE THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE BUNCHING AROUND THE PLACE YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO HAVE STOPPED AT AND THERE WASN'T ANY OTHER BUS BEHIND.
2. Walkajog took really long to start, and I was just stoning there but luckily Jiayi came along and was nice enough to talk to me.
3. GAC booth duty was okay; everyone loves bubble tea so we had pretty good business but nobody wanted cupcakes so we had to do mobile selling for that one. I am a terrible salesperson. NOBODY wanted to buy from me except the adults and my ultranice seniors (Russell and Muni, and Muni couldn't even eat the cupcakes herself but still bought them anyway).
4. At some point in time Kinnari and I decided to go cupcake selling together. So we got a box of cupcakes and walked around the school selling cupcakes to people. Sales were lousy, so Kinnari suggested that we could try the shooting range for business.
Inside the shooting range, we went round trying to persuade people to buy our cupcakes. Then we saw these two guys standing around, so we tried our usual sales pitch on them, and this is what happened:
Us: "Hello would you like to buy our cupcakes it's 1 for $1 cost price we're clearing stock yadda yadda yadda"
Guy 1: "Uh, no. We don't feel like eating cupcakes now."
Us: "Well then you can buy them first and eat them when you feel like it! They're really cheap!"
Guy 2: "Hmm. Well, if you give me your number, I could call you when we want cupcakes..."
Us: *look at each other* "Uh okay never mind." *zao outside* "...what the hell?!"
If it was a tactic they use on girls trying to sell them stuff, it definitely works. If not...eww.
5. ORA money collection ended late.
6. We got lost looking for LT3 in HCJC.
7. AC performed this really powerful war poetry piece and they were right before us, so I got all depressed and couldn't get back into the shallow bimbo mood I was in before that.
8. Rehearsal was damn screwed and I got even grumpier and started glaring at everyone.
9. Ms Picca was nice and sent me all the way to Paya Lebar MRT so I could take the Circle Line to Serangoon, but we met with a bad traffic jam due to the storm. Sigh.
10. So I was late for tuition.
11. Nearly dozed off during tuition.
12. Got home to find nobody around, and had to go back out to tarpao dinner.
13. Ate a sad, solitary dinner. Meh.
See why my life sucks? Sigh.
