It's Only Natural

Do you believe in bad luck? Or karma or whatever? I'd like to think that when something happens, it happens for a reason. The laws of cause and effect coldly apply. Not today. Today, I think some bad luck decided to strike.

I was supposed to take my driving test today, and when the examiner was checking out the car, she noticed that the rear right brake light wasn't working. So the test had to be cancelled. Which sucked because I had checked the lights yesterday and everything was working fine.

*sigh*

Well, as the saying goes, 'shit happens' or as some others say 'excreta occurs'. So the test is rebooked to the 17th of January next year. I know there may be some comments going 'oh snap! sucks to be you' and lots of repetitive uses of 'noob', but well, I'm past caring at this point.

Anyway, moving on from the bad news, the side mirror was fixed quite easily and cheaply. The mirror was taken to this shop that cuts glass and the guys there measured and cut out a piece of glass and stuck onto the mirror. And it cost a mere $25 compared to $260 for replacing the entire mirror.

Well, hopefully some good news later, eh?
