God is teasing my life

Just when my life is going to the right direction, I am getting fvcked in every possible way possible.
The University of Hong Kong hired me as a teaching assistant, but they only gave me a part-time position. They think it will be too much work for me because I will be studying full-time. Well that part-time position pay is complete ass @$5554hkd (equivalent of about 750usd). I was so planning to move out with my friend. He hooks me up with a sweet deal at 2000hkd rent a month (that's 250USD a month, in Hong Kong!). Now I don't know if i can afford to move.

Tuesday I was supposed to meet an old friend of mine. But She said she was busy and find another on Wed or Thurs. Of course I was pissed and blew her off. Now I am sitting here at home b!tching about it.

Oh and there's a typhoon that wouldn't go away in Hong Kong. It broke my exercise cycle. Instead of running and doing pull-ups, I am munching on my snacks and drinking soda.

Finally my internet is down and have to resort to stealing wifi. The new computer that I am building doesn't power on and currently have become a desk for me to put my monitor on.

The subway here blows chunks too. I had to wait in line for 20min to get on a freaking subway. Here's a pic of the horror (might be the only redeeming value of this thread)

Sorry for your sh!t storm. Next week will be better.

Does Hong Kong have uniformed subway "packers" that push people in the cars like in Japan?

We have an automatic system here which the people from behind will push you in instinctively.
That was just a portion of the line. It was just ridiculouso.
Here's my first youtube:

I took it with my phone. Somehow my phone sucks at night (Nokia n70). It's the view of Hong Kong's Victoria from above.

God stopped fvcking with me after I burned down 3 of his "houses." He knows I mean business now.

I hope God shows his balls someday, so I can drop kick them. That's too much sh!t for me in 3 days. I just got real depressed again. Thought a change of scenery in Hong Kong would help.

I really don't like your title either...

Perhaps try 'God is teasing me'...

you want to see god teasing someone, read the book of Job in the Bible.... how do your situations compare?

Or a Stephen King novel, another great work of fiction.

not getting into that debate, read it in a Comparative Literature class in college.

edit: and the title is "God is teasing my life" not "Stephen King is teasing my life"

Well, for the subway you can try listening to music. Nothing like listening to your favorite song. :)

For the school job, you could try to get a new job. (I need to do this too)

For your friend, ppl have diff schedule. It's life.
