I will Survive!I started my day with bad news, my best friend Mohammed's mom passed away. It was shocking news that made me in a bad mood at work. I couldn't focus and couldn't finish my reports, and what made it worse is that my manager was not in a good mood for some reason so I went head on head with him the entire day.
I left work to head to Dubai to finish some stuff at the studio and to finish up prepration for a short film that I will be shooting this Thursday, and on the way to Dubai my car broke down! in the middle of the heat!!! I managed to get my car start but the air condition was dead!!! It was already 7pm and all the car shops were closed!
I decided to head back to Abu Dhabi, two hour drive in this humidity without air condition! It was such a challenge. Wait there is more! On the way to Abu Dhabi there was a huge accident that delayed me for four hours!!! In this humidity! I played the radio and there it was, the "I Will Survive"song! I smiled and started singing with that indeed I will survive!
I got home at 1:30am accomplishing nothing for the day, and to end up the day, I found out that I have lost my apartment keys somewhere!!!! I had to wake up the security guy to open the apartment for me!
But I will survive!!! ;)
