April Fools

The first of April is not a happy day for me. When I was younger I enjoyed the idea of pranking people- then I grew out of it and forgot the whole thing existed, til one year my friend pulled this elaborate prank on me that ended up almost ending our friendship because I got so pissed off and was utterly unforgiving. I think the first of April is just a cursed date for me.

So what happened today? Well, I started off by oversleeping my alarm by one hour. I assume it was the aftermath of having only slept 2 hours the day before. Having decent foresight, I actually set my alarm an hour early, so when I woke up an hour late by my alarm I was actually still on time. The mistake came in not knowing that my bus only takes me as far as university, but I needed to be elsewhere for class. I'd actually never realized before that the bus essentially ran as a school bus for that particular time slot- so yeah I guess that was my fault. I resigned to being late and didn't think much of it- I just waited for the next bus to come to take me to where I wanted. Except that bus then came later than it was supposed to, and after multiple traffic delays I was at my destination a whole 40min behind. At that point I figured it probably wasn't worth it, but my class was scheduled from 9am to 10.30am, and I figured I still had like 50min to go, so maybe it was worth showing up because I've missed less than half- not a chance.

After I awkwardly stood at the door for ages because nobody could hear me knocking, I was finally let in. Only to be informed that I've apparently missed about 3 quarters of the stuff and there was no use in being there any longer. I was unbelievably mad in that instant I wanted to kick something. Of course it was not really anybody's fault except for my own, but that doesn't help with my frustrations.

I went for a bit of a walk that resulted in me going nowhere, but I eventually back-tracked and sat at the bus stop, realizing I literally woke up, caught the bus to somewhere without doing anything and is catching the bus back. I should've probably stayed and made something of it, but I wanted to get home to reschedule my class before I forgot.

Looking on the bright side of things- well there's not really much to look at. I just got up for a class and missed it, and my next class is at 6pm. I just want to go back to bed at this point, because I still feel tired as hell and completely overwhelmed. The only good thing amongst all this is that I now have complete internet access. I don't think I ever told you that it was completely fixed. I can access YouTube now- the internet speed is still slow as hell, but at least I've stopped disconnecting.

I think I'll go play some LoL or go to sleep... The start of the day was terrible, but sleep or gaming amends most things. I also have a lot of really expensive textbooks I bought, which I can read. Happiness starts with motivation to be happy, I guess. #day8
