Murphy's Law

Murphy's Law manifested itself today.

(1) Ominous clouds loomed above. Before I knew it, I was caught in the middle of a downpour. Stranded at a bus stop, it provided minimum shelter for me. Helplessly drenched, I tried to flag a cab desperately. Ten minutes later, a taxi finally appeared in sight.

(2) While checking into the hotel, a weird-looking insect the size of my thumbnail nestled peacefully on my thumb as I filled in the required details at the hotel. -scream-

(3) The lure of the Internet proved too great to resist and so, a trip to the nearest Internet cafe was on the cards. Contentedly chatting midway, a power trip was the least of my concerns. Lights out, bro. Fortunately, a kind American lady offered to take me to the neighbouring Internet cafe and voila, here I am.

Being away from Singapore always stirs a gut of emotions within. The physical distance allows me to delve in another physical world that is different from the cookie mould I'm accustomed to back home.

Blatant yet subtle. Evident yet discreet.
I think I know the answer. Am I right?

Everything would work out eventually.
I hope.
