My not so lucky day.

My mom gave me 2,000 pesos this morning. I was so happy because i can now apply for an eon cyber account at unionbank. So i left our house and headed for the bank. As i was getting down the jeepney, i noticed that my arm was full of red glitters. I tried to take them off, then i noticed that my pants were also full of glitters. As i glanced back to where i had sat at the jeepney, i saw a school girl carrying art materials and there were glitters on her bag. So there i was glittering under the sun in front of the bank, people were taking a glimpse at me as they walk. So i approach the guard who welcomes me inside the bank. Once inside, I look around and found what i was hoping to find, a beautiful bank clerk. I told her that i want to open an eon account. She smiles at me, well of course who would not smile when your client was gittering, and she ask for my ids. I gave her all five of it, then one by one she examined it. She rejected four of my ids. Only one was accepted which was my voter's id even though she said that i look so "totoy" on that id. So i was one id short. She advised me to get a postal id because it will only take a short time to be processed. I thank her and exited the bank. I went to our town's postal office. There were people outside the postal office when i arrived. I thought they were cleaning because there were boxes full of letters, chairs and tables outside. I told the lady who was arranging the letters that i want to apply for a postal id. Then she informed me that they can't process any document for the week because their office was caught on fire last monday. So i have no other choice but to go home.. Poor me.. Fellow mylotters, have you experienced something like what i had experienced today? Will you feel really unlucky when problem after problem comes at you?

Well I guess you should have asked the bank clerk what other ID they can accept for you to apply for eon card. I think there are other option than the postal ID. I do hope that you can get one soon. You will need that when you open your Paypal account and transfer your money there.

She mentioned police and nbi clearance but those ids took long to process. I'm planning to get them next week.

What´s "totoy"? I imagine that the other card picturees were taken when you were younger? If I were you, I´d change to more serious clothes (take away the glitter) and either go to another Bank or to another clerk. I think she refused it because you looked funny. Take care!

Totoy could refer to a kid or a teen boy. I was 18 on my voter's id but she accepts it, i think because it is our national id.

I am sorry that you have experienced this all in a day. Yeah sometimes life sucks. Even I experienced this kind of stuff, like you know everything is going against my side. Everything is not in my favor. Like you, I will feel pity for myself. And what I usually do is to talk to myself and tell my other half (this is my evil side that wants to throw tantrums at home when something bad happens) that everything's gonna be alright. I do things to make me feel better, see a friend to talk to, go to the mall, order a frappe etc. But you know they say that when you experienced something this bad, expect that something good will follow. Life has its balance, cope up with it. I hope things get better from your end. Cheers!
