Damielle’s Tuesday 13th.

Damielle’s Tuesday 13th.
 

 

Until yesterday Tuesday 13th had no meaning in China. However as from this week I think thinks might have changed (for me at least).

  • I woke up with a return bout of the flu.
  • I was late for my morning class.
  • I prepared for a pm class according to the level I was told I would be teaching, wrong level, most material was unsuitable.
  • I got home from class to no electricity. It had been cut because it hadn�t been paid. (over here a pretty complicated method of  notification is used).
  • I met Rachel (my partner) and we went out for dinner. That was fine although very cold.
  • We went back home and had to go to bed early, hehe that was also fine. Shortly after going to bed we got visitors. Friends who were going away on holiday had come to say goodbye. So because of no electricity we had to go out again. Drank too much local wine, went back home with a headache went back to bed and�� slept.

So was it because the 13th was brought up??????????????

Oh Dennis,
I cannot believe it you had a so terrible day!!! At least, it�s gone!! I didn�t have a especially terrible day yesterday but I had a awkward situation when I went to a cafe with my friends. I have just arrived, I was talking to my friend while I was taking my coat off , therefore I didn�t se the waiter who was behind me. Then I heard a noise, I turned round I saw the two coffees the waiter was carrying spilled on his arm and shirt!!! What a shame!!!
I don�t know if it was because the 13th Tuesday, I am not really superstitios, but that is what happened to me.

Hi
In Jewish tradition (or superstition...) Tuesday is a good day.You get twice good luck than any other day...
So, maybe if you start thinking of it as a good day - things may become good... ;-)
Have a great any-day ;-)
