Somehow I felt like I would start my day on a down note when I woke up seeing rain drops spread around the edge of bed near the opened window with rain pouring in.
Then when my walked our of my home while plug-in my inner ear headphone, I realized that the right channel of my headphone was not working, so instead of proceeding walking to the bus stop, I turned back to my home and grabbed my spare white inner-ear headphone. I did all these while I was still tangling with the long extension cord of my headphone. After I got all settled, I was standing in front of the traffic light in red while seeing the bus I needed to take to walk getting reading to zoom away. Of course, I was not stupid enough to rush into to traffic just so that I can catch the bus. So eventually I saw this bus ran away, and later found out that the bus was the last bus for today (the bus only serves everyday from early morning till 9:20 pm). Yeah all these are mainly my fault. At the end I arrived office at 10:35 am. Boss was not in the office. All was well :-P.
Oh, and regarding to the headphone, the right channel was indeed broken, probably caused by pulling the end of the cord too hard sometime yesterday (even though I didn’t really remember that). It’s good that I have a spare one though.
I was giving the monthly household expense money to my mom, and since I got gratuity at the end of my last contract, I cut a partition from it and gave mom additional $1000. Mom didn’t say a thing about it, and it for some strange reason bothered me. Don’t get me wrong. I was not looking forward to words of appreciation like “oh thank you” and stuff like that. In fact, I was a bit worry that maybe it’s the exact opposite. Maybe she actually thought that I didn’t give enough to pay off the household expense. I thought of that because last night while I was having my haircut at my younger brother’s salon, he told me that my younger sister, my mom’s important source of income besides me, was not doing too well financially and sort of in semi-unemployment stage. So maybe my mom was really tight at finance, but didn’t want to tell me that. Or that I was so busy of doing my own shit all the time that gave her an impression that I was not ready to talk to her at all.
Anyway, I think I should chat with her tonight or something like that.
