Confused and Almost Did Not Make It

It has been a confusing week or I am really getting older.

I know I am going to Singapore.  All the while I thought that I would be leaving Thursday.  I was glad that I had a chat with Bryan two days before Thursday and learned from him that I am leaving Wednesday.  I did panic trying to pack all the things I need to bring for my vacation.  Bryan was telling me that we would go to Jurong Bird Park on Thursday morning, so I was surprised how come Thursday... hehehe...

I almost did not make it again.  I thought, my flight was 10:30 pm.  I was restless and had nothing to do in office, just waiting for time to pass.  Suddenly, there was an urge to take a second look at my ticket.  I kept ignoring it until 3:00 pm.  I said to myself, what the heck... let me just take a peek.  My passport is already in the bag and really do not want to open my bag.  But I did, after that much urge speaking within.  I was surprise to see that my flight was actually 8:30 pm and not 10:30 pm.  So, I rushed to the airport at around 4: 30 pm instead of 7:00 pm.

I really did not know that Cebu Pacific has announced that their max load for travels is now 15 kilos.  I thought that was only a joke.  My luggages, weigh 21 kilos something.  But I do not have any hand-carry baggage.  So, I was asking the lady, since I do not have any hand-carry, can she just compensate the excess weight.  The lady of Cebu Pacific was impolite... she replied, "you check it in, I charge you."  So, I was a little upset because I was courteous to her.  Anyway, gladly, I always carry an extra hand-carry bag in my luggage.  So, I have to put all my clothes in my hand-carry bag and check in my luggage minus things in it... hehehe

I thought maybe God has plans.  Maybe my luggage will get lost in transit since all of my clothes are with me, it was ok for it to get lost... Well, it did not happen, hehehe... I arrived safely and all my belongings.

God is gracious, He really wanted me to go for this break.  Praise God, I arrived safely in Singapore 11: 45 pm with Bryan already waiting for me outside the airport.
