Pardon my memory
Jul. 10th, 2017 10:07 pmToday is such a weird day.
I started the day feeling so sure that I have baito after class, I even woke up early to wash the fishy-smelled baito's uniform from yesterday. Luckily I only got one lecture today so I went up to uni and came back in just 3 hours but for some unexplainable reasons I got carsick, which rarely occurs for so many years since I have to take a 40 minutes bus to uni everyday. Then before coming home, I decided to pass by Mc Donald and somehow I messed up my Japanese with such an easy order, felt as if I got tongue tied or something along the way. The regi guy used to be my groupmate in one class back in freshman year but he did not recognize me since I was wearing mask today, he looked at me with such weird and confusing looks like " Are you sure you can speak Japanese or should I use English with you?" lol. I came home, rested a bit and got out to climbed up to the bus stop, throughout the whole process I still kept the thought of me definitely having baito today.
The interesting part only happened when the bus already reached the higher up area of the hill, I remembered it was the Jissoji bus stop *btw I have no trust in my memory today* that I started questioning myself "Oh crap I think I mistook the date, I have baito on next Monday, not this Monday", then just as my usual easy-to-panic self, I got off the bus right then, walked back home feeling extremely confused. I even called one of my kouhai who works at the same place to confirm but she was just as confused as myself lol, then I called my mom to tell her how Japan changed her kid to this forgetful obaachan.
I was still not sure right now, but I believe the tenchou would have called me if he did not see me coming to work, or maybe he will only call after the shop closes, I am quite nervous because I was absent for 2 days last week already, which I had appropriate reasons for but well, Japanese people do not like it when you skip any work day without finding someone to fill in for you.
P/s: everyone, who I told this story to, called me stupid for having walked home instead of waiting for the bus, the walk took me 45 minutes but after living in Japan for enough time, I found it strangely normal :)
