I refused to get out of bed this morning...

Apart from it, yes, being a Monday morning, it was also because the weather outside was in such a perfect sleeping condition. I snoozed my alarm twice. Thoughts of calling in sick definitely crossed my mind more than once.

It started pouring very heavily after my shower. When I was done with my make up, I still thought of returning to bed.

Since it was still pouring heavily and I can't leave the house, I decided to read the newspapers. As I was reading the first page of the Home section, I realised I was reading and reading the same lines. Initially I thought something was wrong with me. I then realised that I was doing that because that section was so badly written. It had so many running sentences without the appropriate full stops, too many sentences with unnecessary commas and sentences which were grammatically wrong. Not only that, some sentences even had more than one "which" within the same line. Having that on the front page of our national newspaper certainly irked me first thing in the morning. I am by no means saying that I am an expert at pin pointing the errors, but they were certainly glaring enough to be picked out!

When I left the house, it was already 835. I had to brace the weather and make it to work despite the downpour. That was not all... Only when I was about to reach the office did I realise that my bread is still on my table!

I reached office at 910, reported upstairs before going down to Hans to buy my breakfast.


*I am wearing a bright pink top and black skirt. When I woke up this morning, I wanted to change it to all black instead. I am glad I didn't. That would definitely have added onto my BLACK Monday. Colours DO maketh one's mood.
