Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.
Friday the 13th is never a lucky day..... But today is not the 13th leh! Today, the plan was to take the fast train from Suwon Gumi, go into Samsung plant, have a meeting and return to Suwon by train before the peak crowd kicks in as it is a Friday. Simple plan that is very straightforward and easy to execute.
So in the morning, got to the train station without any hassle, got the tickets that was reserved earlier. Got down to the correct tracks and waited for the train. Then my karchng itchy, and went to ask a local if i got the right track anot? Then he pointed me to another track, and i was thinking to myself, heng i ask ah! if not jialat liao.
Then the train arrived and i got on to it. As the train was pulling out of the station, i couldn't find my seat as indicated by the ticket. So i went to ask the conductor, and turns out that i got up the wrong train loh. Kaoz. This train will still get to my final destination, but will take some more time as it will stop at all the stations. Worse thing is that i dun have a seat in this train so i may have to stand throughout the 3 hr train ride. Then i saw some seats not taken so i just go there and sit first loh. So at every station, damn stress loh, cos scared some guy will come up and say this is their seat. any way, this seat was apparently untaken, so no one came so lucky for me loh.
Anyway, halfway through the train ride, i realised i left my passport in my other jeans! I need the passport in order to get into Samsung plant for the meeting loh! I was thinking, die lah travel so far liao den no meeting meh? But there was nothing i can do cos i'm almost 200 km away from my passport liao loh. so lan lan go there see if there is anything i can do to get in loh. (use my trademake smile?)
At Samsung reception, there was some inconveniences, but still i managed to get in with my trademark smile..... and a call to a Samsung engineer. So I was just on time for the meeting. Luckily got plan in some buffer time in case of this kind of things happening, so on with the meeting. The meeting with our client and their client went smoothly but the conclusion meant that i had to extend my stay another week and i have to move back from Suwon to Gumi again with all my luggages(17kg++). one word to describe loh, SIANZ.
Then the meeting dragged on til after the time the return tickets was booked, no later i had no choice to go to the station to see if there is any available tickets left and possibly had to squeeze with the weekend crowd on their way back to Seoul. At that point I was thinking that i am so damn suey loh. go back room better not bath ah, or i might just drown in the shower or wat ah.
Got a train back at around 7+, reaching Suwon almost 10 already but luckily no other unlucky incident liao. Soooo relieved that the day is finished without me getting hurt loh. think if i eat toufu today hor, chances are that i will choke on it loh. haiz... really bad day man...
