hi there... yupz finally arrived at medan.... its quite an experience for today... from singapore, to batam then to medan....well let me tell you what's happening....
morning, woke up @ 4.30am... can't sleep at all, dunno why...but at least, it still gave me some time to go online.... then, drank one cup of milo , shower.... then get ready to leave for harbourfront...... yupz, left house @ around 6.30 am... reached harbourfront like around 7.15am , including after went pass the immigration....then as i took the escalator down, i heard ppl keep calling " Billy, Michael, Arwin...." i was still thinking like... wah, looks like there's another person who have the same name as me....very very rare...=) but then when i took out my boarding pass and take a glance at it.... it says... "boarding time; 7.05" i was like... wah lao... shit ! i ran quickly to the entrance to the jetty, after presenting my boarding pass to the sliding door's ticket collector... luckily i can still made it..... just in time.... the moment i step on the ferry, i saw the unhappy faces of the passengers, who were affected by the delay in the ferry's departure just because of me...anyway sorry ladies and gentlemen... this won't happen again.... when i laid my butt on the seat, the ferry door was shut liao and the ferry began to depart for batam.... for the 1 hour journey to batam, i just spent time listening to my mp4 player....
truth is, i had collected the boarding pass the day before the departure, and i said to the lady " give me the 1st ferry." i assume it should be 7.35am ,since on the schedule, it was said so.... therefore, i just check for the date....dun bother to check the departure time.... now then i realised that on sunday, there's a very special earliest ship...7.05am
reached batam.... went through the immigration, collect and pay for the air- ticket to medan at the travel agencies opposite the money changer.... and went to look for taxi to air-port.... went to the taxi reservation counter... booked one taxi and the friendly driver helped me to carry my luggage and good thing,he addressed me as MR or Sir =D
his taxi was unlike any other taxi.... he modified the whole taxi until it looked like racing car from OUTRUN 2(Arcade game) and indeed it was.... he even speed.....wooo hooo , cool man...
when we reached batam airport,he helped me to unload my luggage and the taxi fare is only Rp60.000 . At the airport, whereby we are to let our stuff to go through the x-ray, my luggage went through and to my suprise, they suddenly stopped the belt.... and asked me, " boy, what's that pill inside?" i could not hear him properly since he spoke really soft and he used the indonesian short term, which i used to heck care about it..... i kept repeating "huh???? 3x" then finally i understand when he asked another officer to tell me.... yup i claimed that it was.... Eye vitamin... then he said," next time said more clearly if it is a vitamin..." he slammed the [baggage checked] sticker on my luggages.... well, in indonesia, there's no queue one.... u go and queue, other ppl came, they'll make another new row.... so no choice... i went to squeeze between the crowd just to get my boarding pass....and at last i got it.... i realized that i still have another 1 hour more to go.... so.... have some tea-O and soon the departure time had arrived....
Well, domestic flight may be quite troubesome, cos the passengers on board 99% guaranteed are indonesians.... and they have no manner @ all..... just now my seat was taken by another person...the fact is that i always requested for window seat whenever i'm onboard the plane without fail... but just now... one FAT woman sat at my seat.... instead of arguing wif her, i purposely act blur and ask the flight attendant," excuse me miss, can u tell me where's my seat?" i showed her my boarding pass and she pointed just at where the FAT woman sat.... then she ask the FAT woman to move to her own seat.... the FAT woman guess what she said... " BOY, You SIT AT THE AISLE SEAT ..." i still insisted to sit at my own comfortable window seat since i dun want my right to be controlled by a stranger....shit ! She's really an arsehole.... still dun want to move.... until it involves around 3 flight attendants then she move unwillingly.... phew... anyway... its an adventure.... its kinda late now.... i got to end here... tml i'm planning to cycle around the town....
btw sry i forgot to bring my bluetooth connector.... so i can't upload any pics... sorry....anyway... kkz... cya nitez !
