I'm wondering if I should even bother to dress up and do my hair all nicely when its gonna get ruined in the end anyway?

For TWO okay TWO DAYS in a row, I left my house all neat and with every hair in place. Yesterday, thanks to the fact that I woke up late after my maid walked in my room for the fifth time and said it was 6.35am. Every time she walks in the room, I sit up on my bed and pretend I'm awake and the moment she walks out I can literally fall back asleep sitting down. Where was I? Yes, it was 6.35am and that did it. Mainly because I take a long time to bathe. So I ended up leaving the house later than usual and I missed the first 154. So I had to wait for like 15 looong minutes before the second one arrived, which turned out to be a double decker non-aircon bus! I chose a nice seat on the upper deck and the moment the bus started to move, there went my hair flying all over! I shut the window beside me but it made no difference. After a while I got tired of brushing the hair away from my face and let it fly all over. THE EXACT SAME thing happened on the way back. Perfect.

And today. I started choosing my clothes and getting ready earlier so I wouldn't be late. And the moment I left my house, it started raining! But I thought, It's okay. I have a whole sheltered way to the bustop so its fine. But the moment I walked out of the lift, what hit me was a whole gush of wind and droplets of rain! Thank God it stopped raining when I reached school but while walking to the LT from the bustop it started raining again and this time even though we were walking under the shelter we still got wet from the rain. So we took the underground way and walked over to the otherside but while climbing up the stairs we got wet again and even more later, on the journey to the LT. JUST PERFECT.
