Ménage à trois

I am not referring to the physical act itself, but more of being caught in sticky situation, either visual or audio.

Apparently I found out that the visual accidents are common when you are a full time student due to the nature of sharing a place with others. Perhaps you had a bad day or felt ill that you decided to go home earlier than usual. Little did you expect that you will walk into a stress-relief activity by your house-mate. So you learn your lesson and make sure that you get back as planned or at least give a heads up, just in case.

However, the audio incidents are difficult to predict. Sometimes the neighbours forget that the walls have ear, or probably they do but simply couldn’t be bothered. Hey, when it's time to flush it out of the system, people will just drop everything. We get it but what's wrong by putting the music on? Not only it'll make it more pleasurable, it also serves as a filter for any sound effect to your neighbours (unless they happen to be one of those who enjoy tapping).

And then, there is the art of technology.

A 'hello' over the phone should be greeted by one as well. The last thing you need is to hear sound similar to a professional actor/actress (in that industry) or worse, the props involved. Definitely you do not see that coming. You try to shake off the audio effect but the more you try, the worse it gets and somehow, slowly the images start to emerge. You feel like a tape player for the whole day and the noise keeps rhyming in your head.

Word of advice, if you are busy at it, please, for heaven sake, make sure that your phone is far away from reach. You might accidently press the accept button instead of reject. Sometimes multi tasking is not advisable during ahem, certain activities.

Give this woman a break, will you? Not only she has been hibernating long enough, she has to endure such experiences. *rolling eyes* Why oh why do these things happen to me? *bury herself under the desk*

*Ms B hopes that there will be no more blunders in future, or at least for the week. She now has to think twice whenever she makes a phone call and probably resorts to a pair of ear muffins when she goes to bed.*
