Rough Rhymes

The one thing I hate- Waking up early. For, I seriously have a problem with waking up. Exactly the reason why I dropped out. I barely attended classes to make it for the exams. Percentage attendance plays a part in you getting the chance to sit for the finals. So like as I always do, I screwed up big time in New Zealand. I was made 'In Charge' of training troops. And part of my duty included waking the training troops up for trainings in the morning. [Me, of all people in the whole wide world] And like how my life is an excellent illustration of Murphy's law, it had to screw up. I painfully signed 7 extras and my captain was all over me like this:

*After what seemed like a hard kick on my sleeping bag*

Captain: PRABA! WHAT TIME ALREADY?! WHY THE HELL ARE YOU STILL SLEEPING?
Me: *Sleepy* HUH? What time is it?
Captain: *Pissed* IT'S F***ING 8AM ALREADY! WHAT TIME ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE UP?! [You'd never see words censored on this blog. But because I am fasting, miracles happen]
Me: Oh! Sorry sir, didn't realise.
Captain: *Still pissed* DIDN'T REALIZE? WHY DO YOU THINK THEY INVENTED ALARM CLOCKS FOR?
Me: I did set the alarm sir.
Captain: THEN WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU WAKE UP AT 7AM THEN? I DID REMIND YOU TO SET THE ALARM CLOCK AT 7AM RIGHT?
Me: Yes sir.
Captain: *Screaming* THEN?!!
Me: You told me to set the alarm at 7am sir. But you didn't tell me which time zone to set it at. So I, by default, set it at Singapore time zone sir.
Captain: GO SIGN 7!
Me: ..............................
