The Forces Of Nature Are Against Me

I am baffled. Amazed. Bewildered. It is as if I have done some injustice in this world and by karma, I get punished by it. As they say, "What goes around comes around." Have I made enemies among my friends? Have I deliberately kicked a dog or cut down a tree? Have I thought about any ill intentions in doing something despicable towards mankind?

Why is it that everytime when I am walking to campus the pedestrian "WALK" sign turns to "STOP"? There are two junctions on the way to campus: South Allen St-Beaver Avenue cross junction & South Allen St-College Avenue T-junction whereby every day, every SINGLE day I approach these two junctions I am halted by the "red" man. Usually, when I am in sight of the junction the "WALK" sign will suddenly flash. Thinking that I could make it across the road, I walked with my usual pace. However, when I was halfway through to the traffic lights the countdown timer began starting from 7, 6, 5, 4, 3...

And whaddya know when I arrived exactly under the traffic lights at the cross junction, the countdown was over and I had to stop or else I would get run down by one of those solid, monstrous Ford Heavy Duty pick-up trucks. And same goes when I arrived at the second junction. It's as if these traffic lights are playing around with me; they are mocking and laughing at me when I huffed & puffed towards them and in the end I'll just end up waiting for the "red" man to go away. You may call me paranoid but this is a REAL LIFE event. I'll get my revenge. Wait till I get my chainsaw and we'll see the "red" man turn to "yellow." Hehehe.
