BAD DAY NO. 2

My phone is spoilt.

Now I know what's the meaning of the secondary school phrase we learnt: "huo4 bu4 dan1 xing2".

The only happy thing that happened today was Dempsey Road. And of cos, people telling me that I may be penniless, contactless, but I'm not friendless.

True, friends just seem to make my days brighter when there's a haze in front. PSI 200.

Tell me again how much trouble I have to go through to get my card replacements for I/C, driving licence, ezlink, ATM card, credit card, matric card etc. The MORE THAN FIVE different places that I have to get to just to spend money making them. Plus the spoilt phone (which was supposed to fetch $60 trade-in value LOLS), I think I just threw $450 down the drain.

I planned to stay home and lum nua tomorrow. Until I realise I haf to get out of house to buy a new phone and collect my tutorial from a friend who happily borrowed it and didn't return. Nowadays I wonder why do I haf to make such unnecessary extra effort. Then next week, instead of mugging away for my Tax quiz, I'll have to make a trip down to ICA and God-knows-where for my driving licence. I called ComfortDelgro and no soul picked up the phone. I don't want to make a futile trip down you know, like what I ended up doing at Somerset just to be informed by the TransitLink office there that I can't do a card repalcement there.

Oh wells, I'm optimistic. Cos I'm dead sure there's nothing more suay than this already.

My friend just called me meanie jessie and claims that it rhymes.

Oh man, what am I going to do without my phone and wallet. If some policeman/traffic policeman stops me on the street a typical conversation will go like this:

Him: Little girl, are you sure you're old enough to drive?
Me: Yes, I got my driving licence.
Him: Take out and show me.
Me: But I lost it cos my wallet was stolen.
Him (must be thinking I made it all up): then I/C? Show me your name & address I confirm.
Me: My I/C also lost, sir.
Him (running out of patience): everything also lost? So nothing can even prove you Singapore citizen ah?
Me: yah, I have nothing in my pouch now except petty cash and my friend's ezlink card cos he lend me take bus.
Him: Then how you go home like that?
Me: Sorry sir, I just use my friend ezlink card tap ah.
Him: This is getting serious. You small girl no licence and no identity card with you, and using your friend's card some more. You better call home now I want check with your parents.
Me: Sorry sir, my phone also spoil.......................

I'll end up in the police station I tell you.
