QotD: My Favorite Mistake

What has been your favorite mistake?
Submitted by Runnergirl

I generally consider myself to be careless. Its a thing i shouldn't make but out of the sudden, i did it.. especially in exams.. and i always go AHHHH after i realized the mistake..

Ok, my favourite mistake.. i think its multi tasking and then forgetting about it.. i love to multitask.. being impatient, i like to get multiple things done at a time.. and usually, when they all don't finish at the same time, i tend to forget one of it.. like dat day, i was chatting on my computer and making my sweet potato dessert.. I was boiling it with sago and gula melaka.. then, i was busy talking with my friend, i forgotten about it.. till my mom just casually asked how was my dessert.. and know what?

There was a burnt smell in the kitchen when i arrived.. the whole stove was spurt with this glooey dessert of mine.. LOL, and thing was, i still ate the unburnt part of my dessert cause, i felt so guilty.. for a thing, i don't like to waste food.. it didn't taste good, and i didn't like the burnt taste either.. don't know how i managed to swallowed it.. and resulted in me wanting to vomit..

That wasn't the end of my disaster.. the whole pot was burnt.. it was at least 5 cm of carbon.. and it took me days to scrub the pot clean.. the so call coke as a great cleaner didn't work.. the carbon didn't even come out after i soaked it with coke.. goodness, in the end, clorox did the trick.. and i still got this carbon sticking in the pot till now.. after 3 days.. Man, sometimes i can't make out whether i'm getting sick of multi-tasking (the effect) or sick of cleaning the pot..

But, consoling myself, humans do make mistakes.. sighh.. -.-
