Misfortunes Struck (Lugg. 7)

February 21, 2009, I experienced an unlucky day, which made me rather depressed.
In the morning, I struggled to get up, as usual, and prepared myself for an introduction meeting that offered some help on choosing majors, which was held in Central Library. After listening to several seniors, I felt that nothing is just for me, because I have a phobia about physics, which narrows my range of choice. What’s worse, I am not very good at maths as other Chinese students are, so I am in a disadvantage over the others. So, my only choice seems to be computer. However, some seniors have told me that it is no easy learning well if I choose computer. What a tough assignment it is to make a final decision!
After the meeting, I, with another 3 mates, walked to the bus stop. No sooner had we sat on the bench than a greatly heavy rain began. Without any sign, millions and billions beads of drops, in a high speed, fell down from the sky onto the ground. It was like someone pouring an immense basin of water with anger. It was at that time that the bus reached. Initially, I thought I was quite lucky that I wasn’t caught in the heavy rain and believed the rain would stop in no time as a practice. However, when we got our destination, the rain seemed not fully satisfied to wet insufficient people. Consequently, it rained cats and dogs for nearly half an hour. We really got trapped in the unexpected rainfall. Immediately when the rain was slightly lighter, I rushed back to Eton Hall in full speed. Nevertheless, another pouring presented itself in front of me, which challenged my quickness for I was taking my laptop with me.
Upon arrival at my room, the bag had already been wringing. What was relatively lucky was that the laptop was OK. But as the old saying puts it that misfortunes never come singly, I found another frustrating thing that my thumb drive had gone away. Oh my goodness! My handsome brilliant thumb drive left me forever, without saying goodbye. I searched every corner of my room only to find that it really departed from me! Reluctant to admit the truth, I made a second effort but unfortunately the result was the same. I gave up inside out when I realized the fact that I will never see it again.
Misfortunes struck me heartlessly on a simple Saturday and devitalized my thumb drive forever.I was more than depressed and also with fury. I’ll have to buy a new one when the IT Show begins. If only I hadn’t taken my thumb drive with me that day!
