I've recently been struck with a spell of bad luck and can't seem to get away from it. I caught a terrible cold which took about two weeks to get over and drained my energy for the following weeks. I then purchased a 99 euro train ticket to visit a family friend, only to find out the last minute that he would be busy and I had to cancel my trip. To add to the misery, the ticket was non-refundable. The trouble didn't stop there... I helped plan a group trip to Florence that I was ecstatic for! I packed all of my things, but forgot my RailPass. I tried to hurry back to the Chateau to grab the pass, but it was too late and I missed the trip. It's not over though. Tension within the Chateau has made for an awkward time, and I found myself in the middle of most of it. When it rains it pours, right?
So I instantly thought I must've broke some sort of French superstition. But, after looking up some of them I realized I haven't done anything to bring me bad luck. I hadn't put a loaf of bread on the table upside down; had a black cat cross my path; hadn't lit three cigarettes with the same match; or invited 13 people around the same table. By the way, I googled all of these weird superstitions.
So maybe I need to pray to the karma gods to send me some good karma this way. Or do some French superstitions for good luck? What the hell? Maybe I'll even go to church! Who knows?! But, this bad luck needs to go away now!
