3:49 pm
-Blessing..-
Today woke at almost the same time I usually do but decided to take a cab so I could reach school earlier. Alas! No cab in sight even after waiting for 15 minutes so I decided to call for a cab. However despite the driver going at a high speed I still did not manage to make it in time and had to enter through the back gate.
Yet I could hardly remember the combination lock's code and spent some time trying to open it. Just when I was about to call the general office for help, one of the school servants appeared and told me the gate wasn't locked at all! Immediately I was so embarrassed! He must have wondered what kind of teacher I was not to realise the gate wasn't locked. And praise God! When I went up to the staff room, amidst my cluttered desk, I managed to find the passage for oral (which was going to be used for the next 2 periods). But yet again, I had forgotten to make one more extra copy when I went up to conduct my oral...
It was truly an eventful day and just tells me one thing: sleep later in future??! It was weird but usually when I sleep late I get to work on time. But when I sleep at 10.30pm, things seem to turn out the other way! Oh well...still it was a blessing to have someone tell me about the unlocked gate and even more of a blessing to knock off officially at 12.30pm today. Which of course did not materialise as I spent time clearing my stuff before going for lunch at 1++!
