The day I am a bummer

a bummer sure sounds like obama.. but i aint gonna talk about the day i become obama. i dont really know him by the way. it was the day that i sure hope that i can turn back time.

so this was the day that the girl that i like a lot asked me to join her for shisha socializing with some old friends. in fact i actually know some of the friends she was mentioning about. so i were to meet them at castle jalan damai in which i was very excited about. first, and foremost i got to met her and then i got to try for the first time shisha. friday night 10 pm, it wasnt that late at all.

alas that friday was really tiring for me. just before lunch that afternoon, i discovered some parameters that i entered wrong in the simulation. the simulation was for the base case where everyone had to follow in order to simulate their other cases. so being a responsible fellow engineer, i could not just ignore the error and hence i informed everyone. so i had to re-do the base case with the correct parameters, ran all the other simulations i have done, put it in the server and then informed other fellow engineers. i felt bad but there was always lesson in doing mistake right? so all that have to be done within one hour before lunch time since after the friday prayer i would have attend a workshop in bukit kiara. i managed to finish it by one hour and i hope that i did not make any other mistake. God forbids since the meeting on the simulations would be held on the monday. thus for them to complete all the other simulations they have to refer to the base case that i simulated.

my lunch wasnt that smooth either. since my sister left her keys at home, i have to hand her the keys at the lrt station. just in case i have to be home late, she wouldnt have to wait outside the house.

after the prayer, i went in to the office to finalize the files in the server. i copied all the related files from the server to my thumb drive so i could look at it at home. when everything looks ok then i rushed out the building and zoom drove off the bukit kiara.

sure what they said about the sprint highway is true. complicated and very misleading. i took the wrong exit and ended up going to sectiom 16 which is far from where i was supposed to be. realizing that i made a u turn and tried the same road again, again i felt that that i was going in the wrong direction. looking at the time it was already 2.58 pm and omg the workshop would be starting at 3. my heart was pounding really fast and i decided to stop at shell to ask for direction. true enough, i again missed the exit to bukit kiara and the tauke told me how to get there. so i called my senior telling him that i missed the exit but then he assured me to try again since the workshop had not started just yet. people were still enjoying the refreshment in the lobby.

so luckily i made it before the event started (which exactly started at 3.15pm) but as in the other workshop we had to interact and discuss the subject matter with other participants. i believed overall that the workshop was an eye opener. so then i reached home around six after all the hustle in the traffic, i guessed every friday the traffic is worst than any other day. so after shower and maghrib i laid down on the sofa and fell asleep. damn it was really good sleep till i woke up to find that i missed the night out with them.

wow i am a bummer and what a stupid mistake to lay down when you were really tired knowing that you will fall asleep and at the same time knowing that someone is expecting you. not just any someone but someone you want to impress. haha i felt like an idiot actually. so early morning next day i text her to say how sorry i am for last night. but still i felt really bad for letting her down.
