long day one (and it'll be a long post)
i really think that ning's life is full of unexpected turns.
for other people, leaving sg to other countries for further studies is already a very sad issue.
and just the departure scene is tearful enough.
however, for ning, even a simple 12 hr flight (ok, it's not as simple as it sound) to the other half of the globe can take almost a day and a half.
the drama starts with serene, me and soohuay going to the airport to send off ning last night(14sept) at 10.20pm. soo had a dramatic turnup, just like korean dramas, where she cabbed to the airport, yelled at the driver, ran across the airport in heels in search of ningdie.
oh right, before that, it was my share of drama. I saw joanna's whole family* at the airport. She was there to send off her cousin. She was shocked to see me, so was I. Haha.
Background info: So, ning is going to bristol(?) with her 3 friends. And, coincidentally, one of the friends is joanna's cousin. o.O
That explains everything. heh.
So we bade farewell at the departure gate and thought ning is on the flight alrdy. Who knows, she texted at 1.30am saying she has been taxiing the runway for 2 hours and just as she texted, the captain said the flight has been rescheduled to 4.25am due to technical problems and fog. We thought its super exaggerated already, and who knows again, she gave a good morning message and said the flight has been rescheduled to 3pm, and she's on her way to Crowne Plaza hotel to rest as prepared by SIA. How dramatic can it get!
Oh wows, I can only say ning, maybe they know your air-sickness eh. that's why they delayed time after time :D
*really whole family, pastor ng, mr goh, deborah..etc..
