Before i continue with my Sabah expedition, an interlude...

What do we call people who make mistakes repeatedly, and never learn their mistakes? "To err is human" I donot think so. who will forgive you if you loose money every year a certain amount?

It happened to me, it is happening to me. I always think that i am unlucky when comes to ticket booking, especially air ticket. There was a time, i think 4 years back i booked a wrong date..guess what, it was air asia, you will never get your refund..(question, am i saving money?) My friend was so mad at me and asked me if i was really educated. Good God! Another time, I missed a flight from KL to Kuching, exactly ten minutes late, the flight took off and I broke into tears.....why does this happen to me, to me only?
Eversince, i made sure i had somebody with me to book the ticket, to check the time date etc. Before last year, for some reason..i did not book my return ticket from KL to Kuching until the i took off...(wht a gut or how careless?)I flew in Business class by Mass....A class treatment which is a different story.....

Wait the story is not over yet. Last year, it was not air asia, it was Indian airlines...i realised my flight time and date was exactly the day i was supposed to travel..guess what..i cancelled and booked again..I was not ready to take off from india..it was so sudden to know that you are flying that particular evening...links of events....I rebooked air asia..connecting Kuching..

DID I learn from my mistakes?

No, what happened to me last week? It's a long plan of visiting Singapore, since the price was very reasonable, since air asia is flying straight from Kuching to S'pore, since you donot have spend double flights, I planned and booked. Guess what? I forgot to get my visa...(India does not belong to ASEAN) there are only four days from my Sabah trip to Singapore. I approached all the travel agents, they said..so sorry miss..cannot take risks (people here are too scared to take risks..in my case everything is risk!) ok..now what to do?

I booked my ticket again from Kuching to KL and from Kl to S'pore....i am taking off tomorrow night to KL..........

So, is there any moral in this story...yeap....1) I always spent extra when I meant to save...2) I have never learnt anything from my mistakes.....and in future? who knows...?
