Today is the worst day of my life.

Something very terrible happened. So bad, I wished I can disappear from the face of the earth. Wished I could fly far far away and never come back. So bad, I wished I never was.

I knocked into a rubbish bin today. If it was just a normal bump it'd still be OK. But the stupid rubbish bin just had to keel over and fall down! And it didn't really help that it was in the middle of the canteen when almost the entire school population has the same stupid common break?! The canteen is like, teeming with people, a thousand pair of eyes.

I was just talking to my friend and walking backwards, and I felt myself bump into something, and the next thing I knew when I turned around, there was this loud explosion(BOM!). And I mean loud explosion! This rubbish bin which appeared out of nowhere lost balance, and just fell on its side. It'd be not so bad if it had just fallen on its side, I'd just put it back up again, but NO, the stupid swinging lid just had to come off and roll away too(bom bom bom) a few metres away.

The worst thing was the sound. It was so loud, the freaking explosion-like BOM, it made everyone stop eating to look. And for a while a thousand pair of eyes was on me. Me. The girl who KO-ed the rubbish bin.

And momentarily, I was stunned, mouth agape. Too shocked for words. Too shocked for action. I just stood there facing the fallen rubbish bin, while the entire world looked at me facing the rubbish bin. Can you the imagine the horror! It's like a nightmare lah!

I wanted to die I tell you. I never, ever felt so embarrassed my whole entire life. I've banged into worse things, but a rubbish bin?! What have I done to deserve this...! :(

I couldn't possibly run away with the thousand pairs of onlooking eyes, so I did what I had to do. I helped it up. And put it's nice little swinging lid back on. But NO, it just had to rub salt to wound. The stupid bin. I swear it was taking revenge. When I nicely placed it's stinking swinging lid back on, it just had to dislodge and fall right into the bin itself! (BOM!) Another explosion which made more people turn and look. At that point of time I really wished the ground could swallow me up. :( You can't imagine the mental agony. The humiliation! The shame! I wished I could just disappear.

While walking (as fast as I could) out of the canteen I heard people giggling and laughing, the comments I heard, oh man, I can't even put them down in words. I wished I had that flash pen thing the Men In Black agents use to erase people's memory.

I contemplated taking OCP (out-of-campus pass) to escape home for refuge, but what would I write as the reason for leaving school?! Argh. Now, whenever I hear giggling I imagine people whispering behind my back, finger pointing, laughing at me.

And while walking around school just now I had >2 friends coming up to me to ask about me and the rubbish bin. WTH?! Nowadays news spread like wildfire man! :( Bad news, to be exact.

Rawr it's all the stupid stupid rubbish bin's fault. So feeble and weak it can't even take a little knock.

I hate rubbish bins. Rahhhhh!
