Cash!

Let's start from where i stopped last time, shall we?

With my visa done, the next thing to do was to get my air ticket! Prices of the tickets were increasing by the hour, and i was so worried. With all the tension, my bro's credit card decided to give me problems when i needed it the most. Damn RHB Bank and that stupid ACCESS thingy for online shopping. It asked for some stupid ID and password, that even my bro doesn't know about. Apparently, it's automatically registered for all card users. Wat da heck?! How to know the password n all if u auto reg for ppl?!! Idiots.

In the end, with lots of help from Vince's dad, i managed to buy my ticket from the SIA ticketing office.

Counter lady: How would you like to pay, miss?

Me: Cash.

Counter lady: *busy typing* How are you going to pay for your ticket, miss?

Me: Cash.

Counter lady: *stops typing and looks at me in calm shock like this kind of situation happens all the time*

Me: *Takes out the RM6500 (in RM50 &RM100) from Vince's pocket + RM16 cash and counts it on the counter with the help of Vince n Joeyin, then pay* ;)

Counter lady: *Takes my money, count again, put it through the note-counter machine, and then scan every single note for counterfeit, and secretly curses me - "Which idiot pays RM6516 in cash??!! Arrghh!!"*

----------------

For the first time in my life, have i ever held RM6500 in cash with my very own hands. Felt rich for once. And it felt good..
mwahaha.. =P

My flight itinerary...

If you guys have noticed, i'll be transiting in Singapore before i fly to Seoul and eventually Vancouver! So, anyone free on that day, and happen to be in Singapore, maybe we can meet up for dinner or smth? hehehe.. =) Oh and, I'll be flying across the world on Christmas Day!!! How cool is that! hahaha.. =DD

At last, my ticket to Canada and back is settled. Although i had to empty every single sen from two of my bank accounts and borrow money from ppl to pay for it. Whew~ At least for now i can be sure that no matter what happens, i shall definitely be going to Canada and coming back!

But the problem left is... How am i going to survive there??

That remains a mystery...



ps: Did you know that flying directly from Singapore instead of M'sia is MORE expensive? This is because they charge the Tax n Fuel in S$.
