Travel disaster in GZ

This weekend, I went to Guangzhou to meet my sisters and bro in law~ was really looking forward to the trip coz it would be a trip full off 吃喝玩樂在廣州〜 and of coz shop at wholesale places~ *眼睛亮* I arrived at the airport early before noon and waited for jenn~ guess how long I waited? 3 hours at a big but boring airport. Took me 30mins to walk to the international gate! That's how big the airport is!! Jenn must be touched to have a great sis like me *wink*

The trip was fun.. it was a trip full of pleasant surprises~~~ the best is yet to come~ 

You see, my last trip in gz was last year w my sis... For some reasons, there were thunder storms and heavy rain almost every afternoon at that time... This time before I went, I checked the weather forecast almost every day to make sure history doesn't repeat! Coz during heavy rains, all flights in gz will be delayed! Last time we waited for 5 hours at airport, and our flight time was still to be determined! So my sis and I decided to leave the next day instead~

The first two days in gz was good~ cloudy but not raining.. the weather changed on Sunday morning, my nightmare had come~~ loud thunder in the morning followed by heavy rain... I thought it should be ok as the rain was getting less heavy... Until when it was close to my flight! It was raining cats and dogs and started to flood in some places~ hopeful that my flight would be safe since i didnt receive any notification~~ i kept my fingers crossed (or just in denial)...When in airport, my heart dropped when i saw how crowded the airport was! 

turned out all flights were CANCELLED instead of delayed! Panic coz I have to be back to shanghai for my meetings with my boss!

With the consolation, help and suggestions from my sisters and bro in law, finally I decided to go to HK instead to take my flight... There was still a possibility that I wouldn't be able to leave gz if I leave the next day~ better go to HK to bet my luck~ 

It's only this time that you will know how great technology is... My bro in law called the agent, cancelled my flight, booked me on new one~ you think this is the end?

How wrong was I! HK was no better! It was raining cats and dogs too and even the subway station has flooded~

So what happened to me after that? Stay tune for my next post~ to be continued~

接受年紀

幾個禮拜前，在公交車裡聽到兩個靚妹的對話，覺得自己還是要接受年紀這個事實了 *沮喪* 。。。昨天，還是往常做著公交車回家。昨天又有兩人再我旁邊聊天。這時候的對象，是兩個比較有年齡的。看起來像20末和30出頭的一對男女。他們在聊工作和客戶的事情。忽然，其中一個說他有個女客戶，還蠻年輕的。看起來應該是xx而已。咦？那不是正好是我的年齡嗎？

此時此刻，我又覺得自己原來沒有那麼老。呵呵。不過學到了，每個人經歷的事情不一樣，環境不一樣，受的教育不一樣，自然角度就不一樣。所以啊，也不需要太在意別人的看法。如果可以時時刻刻觀照自己的行為和言語，做人就踏實多了，快樂也就是自己給的了。耶~~~

老人？

最近上海一直下雨下不停〜我愛雨天，可是我不愛下雨的工作日〜 因為下雨就很難打車，所以每次要早早就起來，而且手上拿著一堆東西，真的很重很煩〜 如果可以開車，那有多好啊〜 嘻嘻〜還是面對事實好了，我是打車的命〜

昨天下班得比較晚〜 又滴滴達達的下著雨，看來打車會比平常難幾十倍〜曾經在路旁攔車，攔了一個小時-_-# 曾經攔車攔到一半，我決定還是去吃冰比較好〜 幸好最近我有新的交通工具〜 就是公交車〜 公交車雖慢，可是非常可以信賴。因為不管什麼天氣，它一定出現，可能因為塞車，出現的時間不一定，不過一定會出現〜所以我就站在車站，既等公交車，也攔車〜哪個先到，我就坐哪個〜

結果昨天，很多計程車都不停，我還是幸運的上了有位子坐的公交車〜 後來有兩個女生上車，一個坐我右邊，一個站在我的左邊〜 她們無所不談〜 八卦這個那個〜 一開始很有趣，後來我們塞在路上，很希望可以很寧靜的看著窗外，看著小雨打在窗戶上，欣賞滴滴答答美妙的聲音〜 煩死了〜 站住的女生越來越靠近我，聲音那麼大了，還要這麼靠近聊天麼？因為她一直說不停，我覺得我的頭髮應該占了很多她的口水〜 而且他有口臭和身上有一個味道〜 

後來，他們說公司裡有個同事應該年級很大了。我的腦海中出現了應該白髮蒼蒼的老人〜 後來她們揭曉了那個人的年齡〜我差點從位子摔下來〜原來她們所謂年級大的人跟我同年齡〜+_+ 原來在別人的心目中，我是年級大的人了〜

f^_^;)

下雪的東京

今天是日本很重要的日子之一〜〜 情人節。到處都看到情人節的禮物，廣告〜感覺好像聖誕節那麼隆重〜 呵呵〜 日本什麼都有，讓人看到眼花花〜像我這個土包子，就覺得很新奇〜 好多東西想買回家。。。幸好及時想到家裡已經堆滿東西才克制住。

今天也是日本下雪的日子〜聽說會下到50公分之高呢!

情人節下雪也蠻有氣氛的。看到雪花飄飄，我也很興奮〜 東京剎那間變成白色東京〜 

在這種天氣好像`坐在火爐前喝個熱巧克力，看著窗外浪漫的景色。。。或者到雪白的地上做個小雪人~~不過我還是得沖到公司上幾個小時的班耶。我拉著行李和背包，沖去便利店買雨傘，被大雪吹打，被風吹，地上濕濕髒髒的〜 滿頭大汗的擠在地鐵裡和走去公司〜幻想很快變成了現實〜為何跟在電影看的不一樣的?! 呵呵

不過在室內看到雪花，感覺還是很溫馨的

祝大家元宵節和情人節快樂噢

2014 好彩頭〜

新的一年，新的希望，新的開始〜 希望所有人能心想事成，馬年吉祥，馬到成功〜 耶耶耶〜

我來po幾張吉利的新年吉祥語〜

其實是誰規定新年就要發財，新年就要說恭喜發財的ho？ 不過也好，多往好的方面想，也許好事就會連連〜 心念嘛〜沒聽過咩？

今年過年很開心〜因為我已經心想事成了〜 希望大家也有好的一年噢

恭喜發財，新年快樂〜(^_−)−☆

搬家達人

從小，我的腦海裡記得的是我們沒幾年就會搬一次家。家對每一個人來說都很重要。家讓我們有歸屬感，感覺很踏實。即使是小小的空間，只要是自己的家，都是舒服的。印象中，小時候住過現在是 sugar bun 的小木屋。曾經住過現在是別人家的排屋，和現在住的房子。還算正常，爸爸媽媽沒幾年 upgrade 一次~ 呵呵

現在自己在國外，沒有自己的房子，要“寄別人的離下” ，幫人供房子 [AKA 租房子] 。。。第一年去香港的時候不敢買是因為沒錢，而且我下定決心隻去一年，所以為了省事，我就租房子。。。。結果后來想買的時候，發現房價已經飚上去了，又更買不起，結果還是租房子。記得有一年在香港，因為找到新工作，就想找便宜一點的房子來住，反正要經常出差。那一年，我在短短幾個月裡，搬了3 次東西。第一次，因為還沒找到房子，可是租約到期了，就把一小卡車的東西搬到朋友家寄放。第二次，把東西搬到新家。后來我一個朋友找我一起住，我又從小套房搬走。就這樣住了2年。后來我朋友結婚生子了，就離開香港，我當時還沒找到地方住，就把東西搬到我姐姐家。后來過了一個月，我就幫出去自己住了。就這樣，在香港5年，搬來搬去5次，第六次就是離開香港了。

在上海3年，搬了一次家。其實搬來搬去真的很累。要花很多時間收拾東西，整理東西是最煩的。在搬家前，還得花很多時間找房子，真的很痛苦~~ 哈哈，不過經過這麼多次，我覺得這好像是我生命的一部分了。哈哈哈。為何？ 我發現在公司，我的座位也一樣。之前在香港的就不說了，在上海，剛來的時候我坐在4樓的一個小辦公室裡，一坐就坐了兩年，后來被要求搬到三樓。坐了6個月，因為換崗位，我又回到四樓。不過之前的辦公室已經被佔了，就只好暫時坐在其它空位上。一坐就坐了9個月。后來辦公室裝修，我又搬到另外一個座位，坐了1給月。一個月后，又搬到新的辦公室~~ 希望可以落地生根啦~~

搬來搬去真的很累~~

The most disastrous trip

Some back flash to last trip in Singapore. i think it was the most disastrous trip of  my entire traveling life. remember how i mentioned a guy who lost his passport actually lived in the airport? it almost become the real life experience for me. why? Read ON~~~

that day i arrived Changi airport at around 12am and being so tired and carrying so many things on my hand, i dropped my Iphone. I didnt know as i was in the Loo, i heard someone announcing my name..."Jane Kho Jane Kho, please come to the information counter" i thought, wow, someone had the same name as me. Amazing but it couldnt be me since it's not the name i had in my passport. Secretly i was worried if they found out i was temporary staying in the arrival hall...then as i walked to the theater,  there was a small voice telling me it's better to double check..so i did! and i realized i lost my iphone...quickly searched for the information counter and found it. someone was nice enough to take it to the lost and found and the airport guy was nice enough to go into my FB and helped paged a friend of mine using his FB..he said luckily the phone wasnt locked. 有惊无险~~

then i strolled around changi airport and slept on the bench for a night while waiting for my parents to arrive the next day. I remember they would only arrive at about noon. Well, i was taking my time slowly and i realized i didnt have enough time to do all the things i planned to do before my parents and bro arrived. when i finally saw my parents. i was super duper excited. so as my parents. My mum described the "shocked" as "almost pee in her pant" type of happiness. hahaha...how cute.

then we were to wait for my bro to arrive so we went to the nearby food court for lunch. while filling in the arrival card, i couldnt find my passport! gosh, looked up and down, in and out of everything i owned and still couldnt find. then i ran to all information counter and still there was no sign. i asked the information counter to help asked other terminals, still no sign of it. We went to the dark theater and still no sign of it. after looking for almost an hour, my mum concluded that someone must have stolen my passport since malaysian passports are considered valuable. I couldnt recall. i just remember while sleeping on the bench, there was someone close to me. so i also thought it was stolen. I tried to remain calm coz i couldnt let my parents be worried and ruined their holiday. A lot of thoughts flashed through my mine - what if they didnt allow me in Singapore? what if the embassy was closed due to holiday? what if i couldnt get into china and taipei after the trip? so many what ifs....so my dad asked me to report to the immigration officer and reminded me not to say i lost it myself...should say it was due to some unfortunate events so that the govt doesnt think i don't respect my nationality. make sense....

In front of the officer, i reported my loss and the officer asked me if i am sure. i answered firmly "YES"...just right after i answered yes, the lady from information counter came running to me and said they found my passport...apparently it was stucked in the photocopy machine when i claimed for my phone @_@ 有惊无险~~

luckily everything turned out to be fabulous~ phew.
