Bad Luck

All these years, bad things will happen to me unexpectedly. People will think that is ridiculous until they saw it and experience those themselves with me.

After the stupid euro line “fly kite”, this round was the car driver. We booked a car pooling plan to Berlin. Actually buddy had arranged and confirmed with him 2 weeks before we departed. The fellow said ok, no problem. We called him again a day before, but to his voice mail box. So, buddy left him a message as we were busy in the lab. On the day itself, buddy called again, this time, nobody picked up the calls. We called and called and waited for an hour plus.

We finally gave up. We took the train and paying 4X plus extra fare. And the train was very full due to the CSD celebration in Berlin. Crowded. After 30 mins later, got a place, but not for our ticket. They have the stupid category system. Finally Buddy got me a place, he let me had that as I was sleepy and not feeling well. He had to sit on the floor for about an hour plus before got another seat. Pity him. He made a remark that he never encounters all these “FFK” case here all this while. I am the first one that made him “involved” in all these.

Huh… bad luck…heh?
