Anecdote #1

I have decided to post a series of anecdotes so that I can share with you some of the best, and worst, moments in my life. I think that it is very meaningful.

Let me start with one of the most humorous and embarrassing experience I have. It happened two years ago.

It was supposed to be an ordinary trip with Nicholas’s house. Roy and I were supposed to go to his house for some project. To avoid confusion, we decided to take the train to AMK rather than the bus.

It was fine, until we realise that we missed the stop and end up in Yio Chu Kang instead of AMK.

But that was still ok as the mistake can be easily rectified.

We managed to arrive at the AMK station after receiving instructions from Nicholas

Upon reaching AMK, we are supposed to take bus 265 to Nicholas’s house. However, there are a lot of bus stops with bus 265, so do not know which bus stop has the correct ‘bus 265’ with would arrive at Nicholas’s house. (Actually, all are correct) So we decided to WALK all the way to his house which about 8 bus stops away.

After a nice, and long, walk, we finally arrived at the estate he lived in. We finally made it after a 1 hour walk! We dashed to his house hoping that we can finally rest after the long walk.

However, his house was nowhere to be found.

Thinking that we got the wrong address, was had another nice walk in the estate, hoping to bump into his house.

Then we realised that we were in the wrong estate.

This trip, from Bishan to AMK, took us 2 hours. =)
