A Day in Black, Pink and Frustration.
Here's one of my favourite work dresses; A black dress with hot pink trimmings and a lush full skirt - paired with a multi-coloured skinny woven belt. Got it while spreeing in Bangkok last year!
Love the scrunched up pleats!
Come follow me to work!
Clomp clomp clomp.
Speaking of work, I've had a really bad day. Here are the list of things that went wrong:
- Woke up with an elephant-sized zit on my left cheek
- Faced an elephant-sized pile of work
- Forgot an important deadline (!)
- Got assigned to collect a poster from our printer and drop it off at one of our stores after work, which pretty much meant overtime
- Left office and walked the arduous journey out to the main road, all ready to hop on a cab, when I got a call from our printer that she did not receive the file to print!
- Walked all the way back to the office, turned on the pc, saved the file in my hard drive
- Called and begged printer lady to wait for me as its already near their closing time
- Waited an eternity for a cab
- Traffic jam! Waited an eternity in the cab.
- Got to the printer's, waited another 30 minutes for the print
- Hailed and got rejected by 3 different cab drivers because they have their own itineraries in mind
- Got to church band practice 1.5 hours late!
Yet, amidst bad circumstances, there are always things to give thanks for:
- Boyfriend offered kind words and a lot of comfort.
- Printer lady very kindly waited for me and served me with patience even beyond opening hours
- Got onto a cab with a wonderful cab driver who agreed to wait for me while I run off to drop the poster, with the possibility of not ever returning (but I returned of course! One good turn deserves another.)
- Was greeted with a lot of love and concern once I got to church for the practice - a big thank you to all my lovely bandmates!
- Enjoyed an hour of worshipping as we practiced.
- Ended the day with a wonderful dinner cum supper with boyfriend and Ling.
All thanksgivings to God Almighty, who is in control at all times.
Anyone else had a bad day? Big hug for you! Smileeeee!! :):):)
