almost missed

i'm reading a book by adeline yen mah, "Falling Leaves", the memoir of an unwanted chinese daughter. borrowed this from a friend.

i was reading it this morning in the LRT, and i almost missed my station. i was supposed to disembark at klcc. when the lrt stopped, i was looking for sign, "what station is this??"..

then i saw a lot of people getting down, i just followed, and kept searching for signboards. and then i saw it. klcc. phew!.. or else, i had to stop at the next train, then take another train back to klcc... hassle hassle!!!

My mid life crisis in Y2016

He even advised us to open in KL area as the return will be higher and we would have different exposure with different ...

how was your long weekend? mine.... ok ler. on haji eve, i left office around 8pm. due to the holiday on friday, we have to make sure all things were settled before the long weekend. normally, if it's already dark outside, i will not walk to klcc. instead, it would be monorail, star lrt, then ktm for home. and i'm usually in my own world when i'm inside the train. cucuk mp3, listening to my favourite playlist , and also dont want "stranger" to talk to me. but a stranger did talk to me on haji eve. i was standing beside this uncle. and i smelled something fishy. no, the smell was not from the uncle. he was a clean uncle. he was holding a plastic bag. i was guessing what's inside the bag. we acknowledged each other by nodding. then i continued to stare at the window, looking at my own reflection :) then i noticed he kept looking down at the plastic bag he was holding. i also looked down. i was like, " why ah? the bag dripping meh? i didnt feel anything on m...
