What makes a day bad?
Is a bad day determined by one unfortunate occurrence or many unfortunate occurrences and if so, are there values assigned to those occurrences??

I think it all depends on the individual

For example,
to some people, a bad day can be caused by something as simple as stubbing their toe on the table or missing their favorite episode of keeping up with the Kardashians, and to some it can only be caused by getting hit by a bus.

So it varies,
what makes a day bad for you will not necessarily make the day bad for me.

With that being said, I definitely had a bad day today ... or as the time of writing – Monday.

I always knew Mondays sucked, but today was like a harsh reminder of that fact.

Now you might be wondering, what exactly happened that made this day a bad day for me?

Well dear reader, for me to answer that question, we'll have to take a time machine and travel back in time... to this morning.

THE MORNING

This morning I woke up with a strange feeling and it wasn't my usual "I hate humanity" feeling

Nah,
It was something different
I got a feeling that today was not going to be a good day

but I shook the feeling off
I shouldn't have shook the feeling off,
that was a costly mistake.

The day started off like any other, I woke up feeling like absolute poop, I greeted my sleep paralysis demon and stood up to prepare for school.

I was already thinking "maybe the day was not going to be that bad after all."

Until I checked my phone and I saw a kind of insulting message from someone important that really brought my spirits down.

But I persevered, the day can't be bad,
Our morning class was cancelled so that's great news!

I kept on going.
It was normal until I gave a friend my phone to play games.

Now, this is where the thing I said earlier about a bad day being relative comes into play

This dude went to my most beloved game and spent basically all of my resources on ass items.

To some people, this is nothing.
To me, this was devastating
Just the day before, I was gloating to my fellow players about how I was so rich.

Now look at me, barely a coin to my avatar's name😪

My game avatar right now

You know those stories where someone wins the lottery, then loses it all and goes to start cleaning kitchens or something

Yeah, that's how my avatar feels

So moving on, we went for what was quite possibly the most useless and frustrating class I've had in a while

3 hours spent doing basically nothing

In those 3 hours, I could've been watching anime!
but noooo...

We had to sit in a stuffy room, playing with faulty equipment.

THE AFTERNOON

I was heading home, finally, to rest.
I was hungry, sleep deprived and in desperate need of a shower, and the sun decided to take cocaine today so yes, the afternoon seemed sucky too, until I got home.

After being depressed and laying still for like an hour,
I made moves to go cook.

And boy o boy, was it a wonderful meal
By no means am I a chef, but when I cook,
I COOK!

I ate, watched YouTube videos and just vibed.

The afternoon was the only good part of the day.
by then my earlier feeling of dread had subsided
I even started to feel good...

That was a bad idea.

THE NIGHT

When someone tells you they wanna wash at 10pm as in 10 in the blazing night, what do you say?

Well drop whatever you would say in the comment section below.
Because that's what I did.

Intense procrastination 🤝 me

Anyways, I got up and did my chores, did all necessary task and I was about to sleep.

Then the thought came again "this wasn't such a bad day."

Then it happened (dun dun dun)

The time of death was 11;39 and 24 microseconds.

And when I say death I mean the death of my phone screen.

My phone fell and the screen shattered.

And then I heard a voice in my mind...

"You dumbass, I told you today was gonna be a bad day and you thought I was joking? hahahaha!"

Just a few minutes to the end of the day, and this shit happened.
It came in at extra time
It came in clutch
It was a buzzer beater

I didn't even know what to feel,
I just lost energy,
I dropped my phone and went to bed.

The last thought on my mind before I let the sandman took me was "At least I wasn't hit by a bus."

CONCLUSION

To those of you that stuck around to this point, thank you for reading through my boring story.

Im sure we've all had bad days and some of us have had worse days, but thankfully the good days always come around.
I guess one of the reasons we have bad days is to appreciate the good days more.

So yea, this was a bad day
But hopefully, soon...
I'll post an article titled "Chronicles of a good day."

Thank you for reading.

Stay buzzing,
