What a Day!

Author unknwon

I had the most terrible day in my life. In the morning, I woke up at 7.00 o’clock while I had to start working at 7.30. I was shocked and took a bath quickly. After getting dressed, I felt so hungry. I remembered that the night before, I hadn’t had dinner, so no wonder if I felt really really hungry in the morning.
I went out from my bedroom and I found no ones home. I went to the kitchen and hoped I would find some food, but nothing was there. The only thing I could do was cooking noodles. After having breakfast, I was ready to work, but both of the motorcycles in my house were used, so I had to walk to look for the public transportation. My house was a little bit far from the main road, and I hated walking that far.
I arrived work late, and you know what? My boss was there. He was almost out everyday, but that day when I was late, he was there. Oh my gosh… he smiled strangely and we made a small talk. It was the firs time I chatted with my boss. While we were chatting, I got stomachache. I knew my stomach was sensitive. And because I ate noodles that morning, I got a terrible stomachache. My boss asked me to take some Pills but they didn’t work so he asked me to go home.
Since I knew that nobody’s home I decided to go to mall. And as soon as I arrived in the mall, my stomachache was gone. I went to the bookstore by lift. While I was in the lift the electricity went out and the lift stopped. I was so scarred because there were 5 people in the lift and I was the only woman. I prayed to god and those men were smiling when they are looking at my frightened face. After 15 minutes waiting, I thanked god that the lift started to move again.
I reached the third floor and went into the bookstore. Bookstore was my favorite place. I could spend many hours there. At the bookstore I met my old friend. I used to hate him because he always insulted me when we were in high school, but I had to admit that I missed him, though. We talked a moment and he started to insult me again. I knew that it was a joke but I couldn’t stand it anymore. So I snapped him and left that bookstore angrily.
I was so upset, and then I decided to watch a movie. Watching movie alone was very strange. At the movie, I kept thinking of the bad things that happened to me that day. I asked the god, why the more I thought, the more I felt tired, and then I realized that I slept for about an hour. I woke up in the end of the movie. Again, I felt bad. I was angry to my self.
Then, I felt hungry, so I entered my favorite restaurant but the seat was full. Oh my goodness! I hated that day so much. While I walking out the restaurant, a man called me. He was the man that I met in the stopping lift. He offered me to sit at his table. Since it was late in the afternoon and I hadn’t had lunch, so I accepted his offer. I sat there and ordered my favorite food. We talked about many things and he was an interesting man to talk with. From many topics that we talked about, I couldn’t get off of one topic. He told me about Thomas Alfa Edison. Edison was a deaf man, but Edison never thought that the deafness was a curse. Edison said that his deafness was blessing. Because of his deafness, Edison didn’t talk with people so often so he could have much time to study and do his experiment. So, “why don’t I think that day from the different point of view?” my mind kept talking like that.
After eating, he rode me home. At home, my family was there and my mom asked me about my day. I could say how terrible that day was, but instead I said that I had an interesting day. I could sleep more hours than usual, and I also learnt how to prepare breakfast for my self. I also did exercise that was really needed by my body and I felt fresh after walking for 10 minutes. At the office, I could chat with my boss and I knew how attentive he is to me, since he asked me to take medicine and went home when I was sick. And because of that I could spend my time in the mall. In the mall, I met a handsome man in the stopping lift; his face was really cute when he was smiling. I went to bookstore and met my old friend that I missed a lot. I also could take a nap on a comfortable sofa in a cinema. And the best part of that day is that I could have a meal together with that handsome man and I could learn something.
My point of view was changed. I could see a positive side from the terrible event. What an interesting day!
