霉运走开。。。

seriously... my luck has not been good this past 2 months... had the car accident a few weeks back and now, Auris decided to die on me this afternoon at the petrol station... was on my way to macquarie centre when I decided to stop over at caltex to pump petrol... paid for the petrol and went back to the car and it would not start... and there was a long queue behind me... had to apologise to the drivers behind and went into the store to see if the attendants could help... they were nice enough to come and see if they could start the car, but Auris just would not start... so they had to manually push the car to the side... initially one of them asked me to steer the wheel and use the handbrake to stop if I need to... it sounded easy but when I tried, it was really difficult to turn the wheel... so in the end, one of them got into the car and the other pushed the car... and it did not help that it was boiling hot today... it was disgusting... so Auris is now parked aside, there was no shady area... and I called roadside assist whom told me that they would be there within the hour... so I was waiting at the station for more than an hour before the guy finally showed up... diagnosis was a flat battery... decided to change it on the spot and that cost me $150... I was worried that I might not be able to turn up for work the next day really... and whilst waiting in the store... I saw Angela... seriously it's such a small world... and yesterday bumped into Charlie at Daiso... after the battery was changed, continued my journey to macquarie and it was sooo crowded... did my errands and came back home...

seriously... maybe I need to go pray in the temple soon... although thank god it happened at the petrol station and not in the middle of God knows where or on the highway on the way to work...

other than that, nothing really much happening... still have yet to hear back whether leave for April has been approved, and pong has got me hooked on this Korean variety show called Running Man...

oh and work wise... the new MRT OT has been recruited and she started last week... she apparently worked at Nepean before so alot of the people there knew her... other than that, she seemed nice enough...

World Cup 2022, held in Qatar this time around, has been full of shocks and surprises... the underdogs are definitely Morroco and hopefully ...
