Have you ever gone through a day which went completely bad throughout the day and finally when you realize and throw away the 'jinxed thing', everything seems to be perfectly normal. Well thats exactly what happened to me.
My day started off quite well, although I would say I was a little late to help out in collage but everything seems normal after that until I stepped into Midvalley. The moment I stepped into that place I finished the only money Ive had left for the weekend to buy presents for my friends and cousin (June is such a terrible month as half of the 'population' I've known are born in this month). With only Rm10 left I went to meet my childhood friend. While window 'shoppinging' with her, she suddenly felt like watching a Hindi movie. It was a new movie and unfortunately had only midnight show today. Seeing her eager face I thought 'what the hell, once in a while'. Just after we bought the tickets, my mom called and for the first time in her life she was extremely angry, saying words Ive never thought would have been in her dictionary, what more to use it. But she did use it and finally, just to please her, both of us decided to cancel the movie. Obviously we couldn't do it for the cinema has a rule of 'once purchase, no refund'. We tried to call few people we know who would have been interested to watch the movie but again, thanks to the world cup match tonight between Brazil and Japan, no one was interested. Tried selling in 'black'; wasn't successful, tried standing in front of the cashier; no one was interested. Basically we did every single thing we could to sell it off, even sat on the floor because was too tired and hungry (it did look like we were begging). Finally, I went to the ticket counter again to try my luck, this time with a male cashier and I guess he pitied us so he said he would try to sell it for us, requesting us to return in 3 hours time. Time passed and later when we got there, he just waved our tickets to us, saying sorry for not being able to sell it and with our sad faces, we walked out of the mall (at 9).
Things were cool later, with minor troubles here and there (for my friend), but just when I was about to reach my apartment, my sister calls, asking us to rush back home. Upon opening the house door, I saw the table swung above the sofa and everything shattered around. I went into my room and there I saw my sister, crawling and crying looking dreadfully afraid. I asked her what happened and then only I realized my housemates were all injured!! There was a horrible fist-fight in my house and two of my housemates were responsible for it. It was so scary. I quickly called my other reliable housemate to get back from work before everything started again. Once he got back, things began clearing out, with nothing more than each other shouting their lungs out against each other. However, just when I was about to go out with my friend for mamak-ing, my housemate comes into the room saying we were all needed to vacant the house by the end of this month, which means in a week!!. Now where the **** am I to find a house for both me and my sister that fast?? Damn!! Everything is so screwed up! My whole evening got from bad to worse. Our only guess is, it might have been because of the movie (superstitious side of us). Our day started ruining the moment we purchased the tickets. So after tearing off the tickets (it was already useless since the movie has already passed the screening time), we decided never to watch the movie.. Never!!
