Recently my luck must be quite down. On thu nite, when i wanna go board the bus home at my office bus-stop, i discovered tt my Ezlink is not in my bag. I start to panic, wondering where did i lost it. In the morning when i went to office, the ezlink card is still wif me ah. I decided to walk back to my office n c whether it drop in my cabinet. Phew... it really drop in the cabinet.
Sian, this sat working again n in the afternon, got ACCA lesson. Initially wanna go to Chinatown travel agencies wif my sis after class as she oso has class on sat afternoon, but i learn tt Chinatown road is closed for the mid-autumn festival so we decided to go nex time. Initially wanna go NATAS travel fair, but it's held @ Expo, so far away. Anyway everytime when i go NATAS, my main purpose is to take those brochures in the tourism booth, really worth the $3 admission ticket paid. The brochures tt i have is not enuf to fill into my boxes liao....
Yup, have decided to have a family trip for CNY08. Tentatively, our destination is Changmai. We have been thinking of where to go as we dun wan to go to a Chinese destination cos most of the places will be closed during CNY. I'll nvr go for F&E wif my parents, so tt's y we decided to check out at the travel agencies.
Was doing research on my year end destination this morning. Was thinking of going to Kaohsiung in Dec, since i gonna travel alone the 1st time, better play safe by travelling to a destination wif no language barrier. But i'm thinking of how many days should i spend in Kaoshiung n whether should i travel to other towns as the departure flight is either 24/26 Dec n the return flight date is either 30/31 Dec. But i dunno when my boss gonna close office, is he gonna close on 24 or 26 Dec? If i booked 26 - 31 Dec, then which means 3.5 full days there as the arrival time is 12plus n the departure flight is 1pm. Was thinking of gg Alishan, but if only got 3.5 days, not enuf as i intend to stay @ Fenchihu for a day n Alishan for 2 days. Y the airline dun encourage ppl to travel alone leh? An individual tix cost $580 while a pair tix cost $338, adding tax of $137, my tix will cost $717. If i fly to taipei n take the high speed rail to Kaoshiung, the airtix alone will cost me $521 while the train tix will cost $75/way which adds up to $671, just $50 cheaper but waste 4hr travelling to n from. So i have decided to fly directly to Kaohsiung instead. N for accomodation, still looking for cheap cheap one then everything can be within my budget of $1.5k. Shall print out the destinations tt i wanna visit n c how many days i need to spend @ Kaoshiung, if got extra time, mayb i just hope onto train n visit nearby places.
I really hope tt if i travel alone in Dec, then it will train me to be more independent n i shall travel alone in the future since finding a travel companion is extremely hard. N oso save the hassle of conflicting cos can make impromptu decisions as n when i wan.
