"Why do bad things happen to good people?"

It was just a little bit after lunch and I was not feeling good. An article was removed from the system with a note to completely kill the article and I think it killed me a little. Not much although it did motivate me to watch '10 Facts to Help Restore Faith In Humanity'. I was devastated.

Sometimes I get hungry when I'm sad. Sometimes, I just refuse to eat. Today, I was in a state of confusion. Before lunch, I did not feel like eating anything but come after lunch, I was famished. Famished but still not wanting to eat to much. A couple of biscuits will do.

And so, I dragged my feet to the pantry for a glass of Milo to dip the biscuits in. I did all these while reflecting on the rejection of the article, along with other aspects of life (or lack of it). I was a bit in a pensieve mood while preparing my drink.

Nothing special with the beverage though; just several spoons of Milo, warm water and cold water. I pushed my glass to the water tap in pin; making sure I also pushed its button to release hot water and then moved to the other tap while again, going back to reflecting all the important questions of my existence on earth.

...only to find the other tap was turned to Cool instead of Room. I can almost hear my heart breaking. One thing, I just need one thing to be right today. If I cannot have my student loan settled today, I was hoping I can have a perfect mug of Milo but no, it has to be warm-towards-cold. Why? Why? Isn't there enough misery in the world? Why do bad things happen to good people whyyyyy?
