follow up...

So... a follow up to yesterday's ranting. Just to think that nothing could get even worse than what already happened...

It's like having a whole week of bad luck plus a day just to make it perfect or in my case worst. So today I didn't get to sleep till about 4am after I finish the project. And just to make sure it was alright I kept on checking my ipod to see that my file is in there so I can print it out once I get to uni. I rushed through the whole way to the train station realising I had heaps of time before the train gets there. Of course anyone in this situation with an ipod would grab it and then play some music right? Things cannot happen much worse. I lost all my songs in it. So throughout the 10 minutes waiting for the train I was worried that my files weren't there, and I know if I actually go home now I would have missed the train and therefore lose my chance of printing all my files. So I took a gamble and head for the train instead and see whether I have to run back home to do it all over again (since I only saved it in my ipod). LUCKILY though I went to uni and all my files were there! "EUREKA!" I was happy!

But that happiness doesn't last very long. So I got enough time to print everything out and mount the prints onto a board (because this is part of the presentation) So I thought "alright, I'll grab the boards and glue after I finished printing." So everything should be handy dandy from here on right? WRONG! I was way too excited when I found a brand of glue other than UHU that costs $2 less. So I went ahead and buy it. That was the most regrettable purchase I have ever known to do in my whole entire life...

The glue won't stick properly, it was messy, and once it dries it just ripples. And I don't want to print again because, one, I have to spent another $16 just to print 4 colour A3 printouts and, two, I don't have enough time!

It is as if faith is making a mockery of my day I turned up to the level that my class is in. And re-glue every bits that won't stick. So I thought that should be alright. But then came the news... MY TUTOR IS NOT EVEN GOING TO BE THERE! So therefore whereby in the beginning I have to worry about presentation and all other things I don't really have to since apparently we only need to hand in the project!

Alright, so in the end I decided to go home after handing it in. I went with a friend back home. Once I went home the only I could do is bludge. Because I won't be doing the stuff for tomorrow until the night. It was all handy dandy until I opened my bag and realised something... MY PENCILCASE ISN'T HERE! Panic struck in. I rummage through my bag, turn my bed upside down, books are flying in every directions to realise that there is not a trace of the huge black bludge of a pencilcase that I so dearly treasure...

Now, to those who don't know this would be my second time, YES second time that I have lost my treasures. To someone who does this course or even love art and drawings it became a huge mental part of you, the pencilcase. It holds sentimental pieces of stationaries that only I can afford once in a lifetime. It was such a huge loss.

I will try not to dwell on it too much and attempt to find it tomorrow. I really wished I wasn't stupid enough to lose it. And just to make matters clear YES I remembered having it in my bag when I left home. I even took it out when I had to cut pieces of the printouts.

This blog is dedicated to my pencilcase and its content. TT__TT hopefully I'll find it soon.

Wish me luck.
