Another nice day in Aberdeen. Looks like things are finally taking a turn for the better. Except that the accomodation office has chosen today to allow some construction people to come and make a ruckus in the loft. Doing some kind of maintenance work. I don't know. The letter said they would be there for about half a day and there'd be minimum fuss/noise. My foot. There were sounds of drilling and hammering and stomping. They started around 9am and it's now 2pm and as far as I know, they're not even half-way there. Chances are they'll only troop out around 4pm and that is definitely NOT half a day. Harumph.
Anyhowz, I called up the travel agent today to change the date on my return ticket and to my surprise, I was told that I couldn't change my ticket! HUH?? The last time I called it was to see if I could change my outbound date and I was told only my inbound flight was changeable. Now apparently I can't change anything at all? Was more than a little confused, I can tell you that. Was quite irritated as well, mainly at being given wrong information, either now or previously. At least the girl who picked up my call was decent enough to do a second thorough check and sure enough, it turns out that I was informed wrongly the first time around. Bloody hell (unsaid over the phone of course, I'm quite the gracious phone customer... what... I know the terrors of unreasonable demands made over the phone ok, of course I'm nice over the phone). But she suggested I go down to the KLM office in SG to see if anything can be done as it may be easier on that side.
In any case, I am determined to stay longer in Singapore. There is nothing for me to do here if I come back in early August and the lease for my new place only starts in September.
Fear not friends!! Siew Mai is not so easily defeated!!!
p.s. Ahh... The title may or may not make sense (to those who can understand my broken Japanese anyhow) in context to the post... Mostly, I just felt like saying it. BWAHAHAA
