I pushed my luck

Good evening my grandchildren. Before I go to the topic, I want to tell and retell that I love my love birds so much. I even will go physical if anything threatens them. I am not lying. Okay now back to the topic. 2 days ago I went to an interview which I had to go if I wanted to work. The interview was on 24 of November and I must be there before 7.30 a.m. So on 23rd I went to my sister house which located very near to the interview venue. On that night, around 12 p.m I checked the checklist and found out I had not printed my identity card yet. I went out finding a shop to photocopy my IC and luckily there was a 7-11 shop had photostat service. After that I went straight back and had to find a solution about the IC copy. I had to find a person who can verify the copy is authentic. It was impossible to do that so I just went to sleep hoping the interviewer would not notice it tomorrow. I found myself hard to fall into sleep. The main reason was I missed my lovebirds. Yea. I was thinking about when I lying down. I was really afraid that when I am working, I will not be able to take care of them anymore. Maybe I will assign to work in a rural area so taking care of them is impossible. I thought those things very hard till without realizing I fell into sleep. I asked my sister to wake me up at 6.00 a.m. I could not set my own alarm clock because my handphone ran out of battery. I could not charge it coz I did not bring along the charger.
At 6.00 a.m my sister wake me up. oh yeah I was really sleepy. I lied down for about 5 minutes more before going to the toilet. I tell you what, I danced in the bathroom when the first drop of water touched my skin. It was so cold as if I was taking a shower in the Northern pole. It did wake me up. About 6.40 a.m I departed from the house and reached the venue around 6.55 a.m. I met my cohort friend there so we walked side by side to the registration counter. She registered first and when it was my turn, I handed out my files to the clerk there. You know what, she said to me " Sorry you should not give me your certificates like this. This is so messy.". I asked her "Why did you say like that?" and she answered me " You MUST use a flip file. Go and find it now." Yeah. She indirectly chased me out. I was like " What the heck, there is no rule saying that I have to use a flip file." I look at the clock while walking to the car and it was about 7.00 a.m. I was thinking to myself where should I find a flip file at the time like this. It was so early in the morning. I was about to crack but said to myself "If you crack now you will never ever able to buy good things for you love birds." My love birds did motivate me to find a flip file early in the morning. So I got an idea. I headed to the 7-11 which I photostatted my IC on the previous night.
When I was about reached it, I saw a stationary shop beside it and oh yeah it opened. I was quite disbelief and I scrubbed my eyes few times to ensure it. Oh yeahhh...It was real. The shop opened. I felt like a miracle was happening. That was my first time seeing a stationary shop opens so early in the morning. I went in and bought two flip files. The shop did not sell any newspaper but it opened so early.LULZ. I was very happy and nearly kissed the shopkeeper but I did not kiss her coz her face was unique. I put all my certificates into the first file. It took me about 5 minutes to do it. The photocopy certificates were still not being put into the second flip file. I decided I had to start driving back to the venue. I did not want to be late for my interview.
While driving I felt like I was a very good multi task person. One hand handling the car, another one putting the copies into the file and my mouth was biting other copies. Ahhh...I reached the venue. I walked very fast, faster than Japanese to the registration counter. As I reached I heard people chattering. Many people chattering. I was like (o.O). There were many other candidates queuing waiting to register. If I knew, I would take my own sweet time driving.
I saw my course mates there. So we sat together while waiting for registration. Then suddenly I remembered I had not verified my IC copy. Luckily one of my course mates also had not verified. So he went to find a person who could do that and he found one of the officers could verify them. I joined him to verify my IC. Fuhh...Another problem solved.
About 3 hours waiting then I was my turn to register. The clerk called me and looked at my FLIP files. Suddenly she said "You did not have a document saying that you are just graduated". I was like "HUUUU???". She repeated it and showed how did it look like. Yeah. I did not have it because I did not print it out. I did not know about it because I did not read properly the letter they sent to me. Haaa...Suddenly one of my course mates said to the clerk, "I have an extra I want to give to him". LULZ. Yeah...We are in the same programme so the verification is the same. HAAA...Settled. After awhile I was interviewed.
Was I nervous? At first I was nervous..Maybe about 5 seconds I felt nervous. It happened when I was waiting for my registration. I was nervous to be interviewed but you know what I said to myself? I said " The interviewer is a human. He is exactly like you. Fear not". After saying that to myself, I did not feel nervous at all...
The interview was about 40 minutes. After the interview, I went back to my sister's house. I slept for quite a long time.Huhu...I was so tired. When I woke up, I drove back to my parents' house.

I think that is all. I am going to sleep now. You take care okay. Push your luck. It is a good exercise.haha...Good night dear. Bye
