Second Instalment: Failure

so this is what happened today.

walking back home after school like usual. taking the usual path, nothing much.

UNTIL I SEE A SCUBA DIVER WALKING TOWARD ME.

. . . well . . . not really. it was actually my brother in his swimming costume with his goggles strapped to his forehead going out to swimming lessons :) that and my lack of glasses itself suggests a myriad of possibilities other than scuba divers. and so hehe i hugged him and kissed him (yes, i kiss my brother to all those flinching atm). then he told me that he came 7th in the cross country out of his grade and it was cool.
yes, how sad, no scuba divers walking around, i know.

anyway when i got to my unit i was going to go through the garage cause i assumed that on coming out my dad and brother would have checked the mail (i usually do after school). but i decided to go my usual way anyway.

LUCKY I DID THAT. why? well, there was one letter in my mail box. and what other than the very same letter i posted to Katherine (with my address in the 'TO' field)? i almost laughed out loud when i saw it. there was extra printed writing on it reading SWLF 01APR11 ML 502 and another one that was right above it reading SWLF 01APR11 ML 519. and also random short orange stripes that look not really straight (hinting its handwritten nature) although i dont think anyone did that by hand since there're quite a few (think a barcode in orange, not black).

. . . i still haven't opened it, maybe due to the sinking feeling in my stomach that i didn't succeed in this experiment the first round. and despite my first reaction to text Katherine updating her on the latest events, she still hasn't replied.

i am planning to take the letter out and put it on an envelope with Katherine's address in the TO address and my address in the FROM field, just like normal. After all, the letter DID get sent to the TO address.
but maybe i should wait, since this run proves both my parents' hypotheses incorrect . . . leaving only Katherine's mum's. READ ABOUT IT HERE :D so yes, i should wait in case there's a big fine :( but then i can't get Katherine to pay it all, maybe we could halve it or something.

so there. i managed to write two blog posts in little more than 30 minutes. now off to mylitterbother to link to this post since the first bit is dedicated to my brother only :')
