Wonderful day!!!
This is a story about wonderful days which happened somewhere between 1 and 2 years ago. I used to have my pouch with me everywhere i go. And i have all the important stuff inside, like my passport, PDA, wallet, Handphone and keys… One day, I lost my whole pouch and it was devastating for me. That time, I still remember I’ve placed some club;s money in it. It’s the t-shirt money for Ilia Aikido Club. I was super nervous and too bad i couldn;t recall where did i placed it. So i spent the rest of my days thinking about it and feel very sad about it. One thing I super dont like is that I have to go through all the process of making reports, paying unnecessary fines and all that crap.
Luckily, I’m quite a chill person. So I try to forget everything by the next day. Of course still tinking about the possibility of getting back my pouch la. Anyway, I used to wake up super early to go for breakfast… sometimes swim. I remember that particular day after i lost my pouch, no one went with me for breakfast. I went alone. And I have this habit of saying this early in the morning… :"Wow, What a wonderful day…" so, as usual… I tried to say this in the most reluctant manner as I still remember what a bad day i had the day before that. Anyway, I did mention that indeed that was a wonderful day. Even though i really doubt it will be at that moment.
So after my breakfast on the way back to my hostel. I was driving and almost reaching. I saw a Russian lady bare-footed talking to a motorist. Russian lady??? What the heck? When did UTP started taking in friends of sharapova? And obviously I thought that she needed help and the motorist couldn;t help much or just don’t want to help. Being the ke po me… I stopped and asked in a very gentleman manner..:"Hi, Can i help you?" So she explained… she actually need to be at the halliburton center of excellence at that time but she overslept. So i asked her to hop in the car immediately. It was the right time to show off the Jackie Chan stunt I learnt in the movie. So i sped off to Halliburton at almost instantaneously. When i reached the destination which is less than 2 minutes from the place where i picked her up, she actually handed me 20 ringgit just because I sent her a distance of like … at most 500 meter? Of course i didnt take it. I told her that it’s just a favour. FOC. she insisted… But i insisted again… and finally I won… muahahhaa… and u know what? She gave me a peck at my cheek and told me that i’m very nice and kept thanking me. wow… being the very conservative me, I was stunt… kinda having mixed emotion during that time. But it really made my day and i felt it was really a good way to start my day.
So actually the magic word did work huh? the wonderful day crap? That’s actually not the end of the story yet. It’s actually the beginning of one of the most wonderful days I’ve ever had after one of the most bad day. haha… So what else so wonderful happened that day? Some one actually came up and told me that one of our favourite lecturer, Mr. Narahari found a pencil case. What the hell is a pencil case gonna do with my wonderful day? Being the very clever me, I was pretty sure that Mr. Narahari couldn;t quite distinguish between a pencil case and a pouch. Probably I put some pen inside the pouch. So, I tried my luck by looking for him in the office and asked for the so called pencil case. Of course he was clever enough to test me first before giving me the pouch. And I was right? the pencil case was my pouch… I was damn damn damn happy that time. And the most wonderful thing that can ever happen is that everything inside the pouch is still there. nothing was missing. Ya, Wanna take this chance to thank Mr. Narahari again. I remember thanking him like mad that day. hahaha…
Anyway, By just saying simple sentence like… "Wow, what a wonderful day!" every morning can relly make a difference. Try it.. First thing to do in the morning before you even brush your teeth, say "Wow… What a wonderful day!!!" And I’m sure that you will have one.
