And the countdown begins!

11/9/2008

I wanted to say 'I Told You So', but I could go on and on.

In fact, I could even say 'This is exactly what I predicted', but no point crying over spilled water.

What is the point? Lets just concentrate on cleaning up. Damage control they say.

I've never agreed with the arrangements, but I did. And so, its clean up time.

Learn from mistakes you'd say?

Not a good advice when you're surrounded with many similar glasses filled with water to the brim, propped up high on a piece of old wood. There really isnt much you can do, except to pray that it doesnt tip over and spill the water, just like the first glass.

It would cost a bomb to replace the wood. Especially when you will not OWN it.

What can we do? Prepare for the worst. Get as many newspaper as we can and put it at the base of the wood. Hence, when the water spill, it will be absorbed by the papers.

Towels you say? Nope, cause we can only afford newspaper for now, and it will be a one off cost. We will not be able to afford towels, which in this case, would be better cause it can be dried out and reuse again. Sadly, we cannot afford the towels.

I'm not too worried for now. It is only ONE glass of water. But when this goes on a regular basis, it will really hurt us.

To make matter worst, we're walking on eggshells. See how difficult it is? We've already got the eggshells to worry about, now we cant even use the wood to balance ourselves, in fact we're to tread around it carefully.

Double whammy you'll say?

Life is like that lor. What else can you say?
