5:30pm yesterday
Was working at the courtyard
Outside my room
At Lijiang Old City
Was working on this task
With the word count I was informed of
It was supposed to take me 10 minutes
But it took longer than expected
Because there was error with the
auto generated word count
Was a bit anxious to finish
Because I promised to deliver at 6
So I was all focused
My phone was in the room
Because the battery was flat
After a whole day of
picture snapping and roaming
So I totally ignored the possibilities of
Other incoming emails
Because I just wanted to get this done
As soon as possible
And I didn't have the inbox
Opened at the next tab
Once I was done
I opened my inbox
And found an email
Sent 18 minutes ago
DAMN!!!!
Can you imagine that
A relatively easy task of
3000 words just flew away
Because I didn't check my email
Within the last 18 minutes
And this was actually Unforgiveable
Because I actually have Internet access
Like all day long even when
I was outside and
Now that I was back at the hotel
How could something like this
Ever happen?
And you have no idea
How frustrated I was
As I have been going through
a pretty bad month
Like all the tasks so far
Have either been small, tough,
Or both
Well what else can I say
Good coincidences make a lucky day
Bad coincidences make a bad day
But anyway life had to go on
Went out to explore the Old City
For our final night here at Lijiang
