Why I should start counting my blessings again...
Darn darn darn... RAWRRRRRRRRRR to everything!!! Let me do the little-miss-complain-and-rant now...
I've been pretty down on luck ever since i stepped onto the Mancunian soil. First I got cheated for the intl calling card... then my room is some dodgy little corner at the back of whitworth park... then my flat's water heater is ALWAYS spoilt... imagine the cold water i had to bathe in just now... it's been at least the 10th time i've bathed in freezing cold water (plus freezing cold temperature outside at night).... then all my 3 frens who went with me to this psych research recruitment all got the job except for me (though we signed up together)... that's alotta $ gone for me... then until now, i'm still lacking of one course 'cos the stupid new online system (similar to ivle/cors) that the uni implemented is giving lotsa problems and even tho I've manually sent in my request to add my last module, they've ignored it for at least 10 days... then my fren managed to get the cheaper tix to liverpool but 10 secs after she booked, the prices changed and it's more pricey now... then when i drank just half a cup of red cider one night, i had rashes the day after... then after we bought the term bus tix for uk north, we realised their frequency is terrible n that the bus to old trafford only runs on saturdays plus the returning service fr trafford centre ends so early making us wait an hour to no avail and had to take the stagecoach bus instead... plus the stagecoach driver was kinda impolite and we were quoted 2.40 pounds just to go back to oxford road!!! ridiculous!!! oh yah, and darnz, i have two pimples now... RAWRRRR...
okok... end of little-miss-complain-&-rant... i should count my blessings to calm my nerves... lol...
i've got a hostel room which is at the back of the compound so the noise level ain't high... plus my neighbours are nice people who don't mess up the kitchen like the others i've seen... cold water is good for washing the hair (according to hair experts)... the intl calling card doesn't really affect me since i've got internet now and don't quite need to call home either... haha... oh i've made a great friend here.... his name is ulrich and i think he's really a cool guy... from austria/vienna... is a vegetarian like my dear bainie *lol*... next, i bought a no. of stuffs that i really like such as the puma bag and my belts... i'm a choc addict and it's great because the chocs here ain't very expensive... i'm also thankful i brought my rice cooker because it had helped me alot in my cooking... and regarding the bus, it's still alright because getting a stagecoach term bus tix for the same price also can't get me on that bus to trafford centre!
whichever the case.... i'm happy that i have a roof over my head and food in front of me... I can sleep comfortably on my bed with my thick fluffy duvet... I seldom have to starve as my food stash can last me another month at least without replenishing... Althought i doubt i'd get the $$ for the psych research, i think it's still fine 'cos i'm not desperate for $... what's not meant to be isn't meant to be...
To end it all, I truly believe whatever downs i'm experiencing now, will definitely bring me the same (if not even more) amount of ups in the near future... just believe in it... just believe in it...
Cheers!
