Distraught. Distressed. Depressed. Dejected – Utter Disaster.

That’s me.
That’s how I felt.
That’s last week.

I woke up one morning to a fresh and clean white dress, just washed. How sweet, I thought. Dirty work’s done. I didn’t have to handwash it myself… and then I wish I did. There it was. The satin lining of the white BeBe bubble dress no longer WHITE, but cream. Eggshell white, vanilla ice cream, ivory tusk. Yellow. Pee. Whatever you want to call it, it wasn’t white. And I freaked out. Out of kindness, someone decided to do something for me. Out of kindness, someone decided to turn a piece of art, into what looked like a puppy’s used pee pad. And out of kindness, that same person decided to tresspass into my room, remove my belongings, and wash my clothes for me. And the worst part is…. the ONE dress that got ruined… was NOT mine.

Like most ordinary people, I went to work. I was pissed off already, grumpy — don’t mess with me. That same day, I learnt that drastic times call for drastic measures and that harsh economic times suck ass, especially when if affects your job. It affected my job. Ouch, pass me a bandaid please.

Change in one area consequently causes change in another area. My daily gym buddy disappeared and I now have no one dragging me to the gym everyday and forcing me to live a healthier lifestyle. Shit, not only does my life suck, I’m now at a higher risk of extinction. Regardless, I dragged myself to gym class. It’s too early for Bunnies to go extinct. Then I remembered, last week was my favorite gym instructor’s last class. I feel so empty. Goodbye, and goodbye. : (

I looked for someone to pick me up from the dumps, feed me ice cream and tell me everything was going to be okay. But then I realized that now I’m only second best. Friendship’s gone astray… and here I am, withering away. FML.

And then I cried.

But after the rain, there’s always sunshine.

The week sucked, I’m not going to lie and life is unfair. But it’s never as bad as you think it is. I work somewhere that is full of opportunity, somewhere where people genuinely give a shit about where I’m going in life, and somewhere where there are new and exiciting experiences each day.  And I’ve realized that the older you get, the more people you’ll know who are willing and available to help you get somewhere. It’s just sitting right in front of me, waiting for me to recognize it, to take advantage of it… and eventually, I’ll be the one willing and available to help someone else get somewhere.

Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
