Unluckiest day of your life..

Well, I recently have a really unlucky streak.. and I thought that the best thing I could do is to talk about it.. And maybe share and maybe if there's people out there who had a really bad day, they would talk about it and share our experiences together so that we would feel better. So here goes my story... On Saturday, I hit a plastic that was on the road which got to my engine, and when I stopped, the plastic fell, and then there was no more sound. So obviously I thought nothing was wrong. Then while I was doing some chores like buying groceries and checking my tyres because I had to pump my tyre a few days at times because one of the tyre just keeps looking as though it's going flat. So, the mechanic found out that there was a stupid metal stuck in the tyre. Luckily, he was able to fix the little hole and the tyre (it's new by the way) will still be good, and will last as long as new tyres usually can go. After that, when I was on the way home, this really loud sound came out from my hood, "thuck thuck thuck thuck thuck" and like I was panicked. I stopped at the side of the road, pop the hood up and there I find that this rubber tape thingie is torn and a long piece of rubber was just hanging out there and because the rest of the rubber was in the wheel thing, that excess of the rubber was hitting the hood. And since I was nearby my home, and I forgot to bring my handphone out, walked home in the hot hot sun. And after that, calling the mechanic asking whether he is able to come over to fix the car. Well, it would be in the late afternoon. So then after that, since the car cannot be driven, a tow car was called and it was towed to the garage where it was discovered that the power steering belt was broke. Because of the stupid plastic thing that someone threw in the road! Fine, it took a few hours to fix that, which then made it an evening already. And to make matters worst, the mechanic found that the air con fuse is gone, because it was hit by the torn rubber piece. And since it was saturday, so it can only be fixed on monday. Then once it was brought to the air-con mechanic, they took about 5 hours to figure out that there is no spare part for that stupid air con fuse. It comes only with the full kit. So you need to get the air con kit. The whole thing just because of the fuse!! So who's weekend of day just dropped to the pit like that??

That's frustrating, yes I had encountered bad days too most of the time when I am in a hurry to go somewhere (or at work)when time is running out and I am worried of being late. And then it's like too many things are on my way, trying to hinder of what I am going to do and where I am going, I get so annoyed easily and sometimes I end up crying myself and shout just to let it all out of my chest. But still my frustration goes all day so my whole day ends bad.
