One thing that I always feel regret about, is why I haven’t learn to play an instruments earlier. Today After all, I got a guitar. In the morning David, Kevin and I went to a massive music shop near the university, played on a couple of guitar and then picked one up. It is with a hard case and when I was carrying that, I felt I am like Desperado. David is playing Guitar for nearly twelve years and he plays very well. Kevin also play violin. Alex and Piottre are playing guitar as well, but I am not quite sure if they are as good as David. David supposes to give me some lesson on guitar.
Since the boss is not around, almost nobody works on his project in the office. When we got back to the university with the guitar, a couple of people were playing game Far Cry 2. David started to teach me some basic lessons; however it was pretty difficult for me to catch up. We were playing to 7:00 PM when I successfully got manage to play “happy birthday to you” song. Seems very easy, but for me with knowledge of zero about playing instruments, it was a great success.
And hey, Happy birthday to you.

01 Dec- Where is my money man?
Read the story and then judge by yourself whether Murphy's law dominate on everything or not.
1: A couple of week before I go to my trip, I realise that the university has messed up with my scholarship. I immediately inform them and explain that I need the money to be paid as soon as possible to manage my travel costs. They promise that they sort it out in maximum ten days (before my trip).
2: Before then, to make sure that I receive the money on time, I call finance office and explain the situation and again the same reassurance from them that I receive the money before my trip.
3: Ten days has passed and not much left from my trip to start, and I have not received a penny from the University.
4: While I am checking my bank account online every day since then, my online account blocked at once and I do not access to my bank account. Calling the bank, they apologise and promise to sort out the problem.
5: One day left to my journey and no money. Calling the University, I am told that their systems have been broken and there is a delay in payments!
[I am in halfway from my holiday in my home country, and finally the money arrived in my account!!]
6: And now you are in the airport, came back from your country, you realise that all of your credit cards has been expired (after three years)!!
