Bad Day

Ok I just can't stay away. I need to let out some steam.

I am suppose to be on my study leave as of today (Monday). However, after putting in another late night last Friday, I know I just had to come in today to finalise everything with the Beast. Plus, I was too afraid to hand in my leave form for another extra day off after my exam after all the screaming and cursing from her that Friday evening.

Hence, I went to the office this morning. I have only planned to stay for a couple of hours and be gone way before lunch. However, everything just didn't work according to plan today. Mr. Tilam is, as always, the culprit for the whole thing. hhmmppff...

I actually kid around with Teek, saying that I'll stay on for the rest of the day, but definitely not way after 5 pm. I guess I spoke too soon for things just went haywire rite after 5 pm.

My stress level was uncontrollable that I burst into tears just as soon as I heard Mom's voice on the phone.. I remembered the words that I muttered to her as I was leaving for the office this morning...

"Bye Ma.. If I'm luckily, I'll be back before lunch. If not, I'll see you tomorrow morning.."

Yeah... I've put it another long hours today. I did manage to complete my task.. That was what I came to do. I am never the type that can just leave without finishing off my work. That's just improper. Hence, now all I can do is just pray that my phone won't be ringing for the next 2 weeks. (I've been warned not to switch it off!).

As I was driving back home, I realised that I've forgotten to put petrol in the car this morning, during the rush to the office. Hence, was praying hard that I'll be able to reach the next station in time. Just as I was thinking about it, the car suddenly vibrates and just died on me. Luckily my instinct told me to take the left lane while turning into Jalan Semantan. Sudah jatuh ditimpa tangga sungguh....

I was lucky that a dear friend was a few km behind me, on his way to meet me for dinner. Luckily I didn't stay on til 12 am today. 10.30 pm was scary enough for a girl to be stranded in the middle of the road. And I really thank God that he sent me a knight in shining minyak to help me out in the messy, and smelly and oily, situation. I can't imagine what I would do if I were to do it myself.

*sigh* (I've been doing alot of this lately)

Today was indeed a bad day...

Where is the moment we need at the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile
and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down
and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down
and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
