I just ruined my contact lenses because the last time I used it, I wasn’t able to check if the lid on the my contact lens container was properly closed so the solution probably leaked because I always carry my contacts in my bag. It’s been a while since I’ve used those contacts and when I finally decided to use them a while ago, I found my contacts all dried and wrinkly. Darn it, there goes my money down the drain. I hate it when I’m so careless and I ruined a very expensive thing.

I was doing volunteer work and we took the kids to paint ceramics. I has decided to paint a flower pot for Mother's Day. It took awhile. We left the store and one of the kid's wanted to see my pot, I took it out of the bag and it slipped out of my hands and broke :(

Aww, that's too bad. I hate it when I made something and I put so much time and effort in it and it breaks. :(

The last thing that got ruined because of my carelessness was my bag - I broke the handle by putting way too many things in it (a habit of mine).

LOL. Same thing happened to me. I usually stuff my bag with just about everything because I find it too tiresome to carry two things at a time. That's probably why I don't buy bags much often coz I know it would just break.

I'm pretty sure I ruined the chance of me being able to pass my math class this semester for college. I was pulling a strong C in the class and unfortunately I didn't study for the final. I had all my material on my couch but I would focus more on the television instead of my books. Since it was math I kept telling myself that it would be mostly common sense, but derivitives, integrals, and stuff like that aren't exactly my ideas of common sense. Hopefully I did better than I think I did, but I'm pretty sure my lack of motivation and carelessness caused me to fail that class. :(

Don't think like that, I have had a lot of experience wherein I didn't study at all during my finals because I was too lazy to get my butt off the couch but since I always listened to the teacher's discussions, I had a lot of "stock knowledge" in me to get me through. You never know, just cross your fingers. It always amazes me how I got through college with so little effort in studying. LOL.

Not that it is a big deal but it really irritated me because I should have realised what I was doing: I have a pair of little red converse low tops and just splashed bleach all over them so they are no essentially polka dotted. It is not a good look!

A mirror. I am a messy person. I won't lie I do not put things away. SO our hand held mirror was on the floor in front of the bed. I was going to make the bed then" CRunch" I was like what was that. The mirror. So yeah I try to be things away
