Today has got to be the worst day ever...just too many bad things happening to be coincidental...
First, my partner informed me that she could come for the spoke today due to some issues at home. This means that I will be on my own again. I really need to practise how to manage unfamiliar situations on my own!
Then, I tried finding where Heathfield House is for the spoke tomorrow, just in case I will be late like yesterday at The Meadows. Goodness, the horror I went through yesterday trying to find The Meadows and ending up being lost in Offerton. I have no idea how many times I tried walking up and down Offerton Lane/ Marple Road trying to find that place. Back to the problem of Heathfield House. I did not manage to find it...so all I do is to pray for a miracle to happen tomorrow!
Next, I find to Hulme Hall in the morning to pay for my summer accomodation. Of all days, the lady in charge of transaction is on a meeting. Then, I went back there after my spoke placement at ADS, which is about 4.30pm. The lady in charge told me that all card transactions had to be made before 3pm! Argh! I can swear I almost went mad at that moment! Today is the only day I managed to sqeeze out some time to pay for my accomodation and I was told I cannot pay them(placement ends at 5pm and the office would have been closed. British people do not work on weekends...:S).
Last but not least, in the evening, my cousin in S'pore sent me messages on MSN asking if I can contact my mum because something urgent happened. My heart skipped a beat there and wild thoughts were fleeting through my brain before I could react. Almost immediately, another cousin in US messaged me to ask me if I know about the events that had happened. I was really worried by then. Turns out that my uncle fell down from a ladder during work and his brain was bleeding. By the time I was informed, he was in the midst of an operation... All I can do now is to wait and pray...
