Its just not my day! March 15, 2006
Posted by Simba in : Wiggles, Frivolous Me , 19 commentsOkai, if you are not in the mood of reading an extremely painful nagging post, just go! Now! Ok, if you are reading on, then accept my deepest sympathies, this will be a long post. Either you are jobless or you love seeing people nag or you care enough to stay. If its the first, jeepers, you better think about what ya doing with yar life! If its the middle reason, then you are plain sick! And if its the last, Ahem, Ok… Thanks! You know how attimes life is sucha bitch and you wonder what the hell is the man doing up there.. Knock Knock, Hey Goddy, are you around.. now what the hell happenned today!? Dont ya like me…I may not be the kindest soul around but like hell, I am like probably a 6 on your scale of 10. I blog randomly, read innumerable painful mails, reply to most of them & I also smile at strangers! Doncha think, I could have done with a better day.. Now, come on! *Sigh* HE must be courting some of the pretty angels up there. Hmmph!
It all started with this brilliant idea of getting my driving license. I thought it would be nice if I get hauled down at any point by the cops. I read the entire DMV book, first to last. I knew all the rules. I also took some free sample tests online, now come on, how many of you have prepared so much! I tell ya, if I had studied for my Operations this much, I would have topped my class! So, me & my pal set out bright & early. We go to the DMV office which is far .. far as in my lingo, about 45 mins drive! We reach there and as we are about to get off, we see the DMV cop taking some test where she is testing the brake lights. So, we decide to check my brake lights just incase. And Jeez, one of them has gone Kapoot! So, we drive around & search for a mechanic shop to set right just 1 bulb and we find the bulb in the form of a mechanic! We tell him to change the bulb, we are made to sit down for an hour & then the mechanic comes & says, we need to change the bulb! What, did you want 1 hr to figure out something we exactly told you to do! Anyway, got it done & went to the DMV office! Ok, so everyone finally woke up today morning and discovered that they need to take up the Test! The place was crowded like crazy. So we thought we will grab our lunch and by mid afternoon, the crowd would be kinda lax. And after lunch, we head back & LO, there are more people now! What, what about your afternoon siestas, guys! So, I make my way and get my slip and wait my turn. And everyone around me are almost devouring the DMV book..you are right, I pick up mine & start doing the same. I swear, I dont want to flunk! So, when my number gets called, I walk in to talk to the cop to give all the details, smiling et al. (Didnt I tell God that just now!) I am checked for vision. I dont wear glasses and I can perfectly see without them but I thought why take a chance and wore my reading glasses which has the slightest power. And I am doing fine identifying etc etc and I am sent for the test.
I start off and *Bump* I get the 3rd question wrong. What the hell! We take a computer test and we need to get 20 right out of 25 to pass. I curse the bicycle riders for making me get the wrong answer. Then I come to 6th question & its from the chapter my friend said they wont ask from! Now, I curse him and skip the question! Ah, we have a skip button and we can get back to it in the last. Now, why dont GMAT guys take the software from these guys! Hmmph! I am happily going on with my 10th or so question when the computer next to me gets filled in by a dude. Now, this dude reads aloud the question! I am like, what! And I give him glares.. he reduces volume ..but hes making some weird diagrams in air to understand the questions! Poor thing! So, I came to 21st question & got the message, you passed with just one wrong! Phew, that was good. So I smile & go back to the same cop. I think, gone are the days, when people congratulate you on passing the driving exam!
So, now we set out for the driving skills test. Trust me! I am a safe driver! I do all the right things, reflexes are ok…we drive around and the cop seems to be ok with my skills! After about 5 min drive, we are getting back to office & I make the last right turn & in my mind, passed the test! We park & head back, she says, You were great, very nice et al but… These ‘buts’ kill me, I swear! And my smiling face became 
.. but the last right turn, you kinda srewed up! And I cant give you your Driving Licence. Oh my God! What the hell, one mistake, thats it. Just one! Come on, I will take you on more right turn, we will keep taking rights till we hit eternity! And she failed me. 
But gave my my permit, which means, I am still a learner! $%&#*% Whatever! We drive back home with me cribbing about my license. And we get back home & I see that my Decision Course results are out & I am damned, the only paper, I thought I did my best! So, best is not enough anymore I swear! And then, I trying logging into my this blog & it keeps throwing me out. I am sooo frustrated! I have so many accounts, so many passwords & if I try all combinations, it might just take me about a day to log in! Hmmph! For like an hour, I fidget around & finally get it right with the help of Forget ‘Password’. Even WordPress seems to play games on frusto people these days! Now, I am all disapointed & frustrated. If you all reached here, you must be awesome! Great patience. May God bestow good things on you! I go now! What a Holi day, washed off the color from my day! Anyways, Happy Holi guys! Hope you all had the fun I didnt! Take care. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Tada.
