I forget; let me just note this down.
On the return flight. It wasn't a boring lonely journey at all. Was much fun actually.
Uncle insisted to send me off to airport, oh well. There I went.
Oh did I mentioned yet. Spent half a day visiting the airport few days even before my return journey. Reason being; to get me familiarised with the airport. Uh. Like seriously. Anyhow was much fun I'd say. Cause if we never did. Never could we spotted the nice view from atop of the open car park space. Thanks to Shi Yi. Suggested to go up, to the top of the car park. Hoping for a nice view. And yes indeed. It was supposed to be. But not exactly for that particular day. Was it very much gloomy. Reminds me of the You Period Kay Period. Not so much of a scene for photo. Regardless. I'd say it would have been great. Could be one of casual travellers spot. Reasonaby recommended.
Ouh very much have I drifted.
Where was I.
Oh yes. Dropped me off at the airport and off I go. Queued for decouments check. Was quiet a bit of queue. But doesn't feel as much daunting. Saw rather a small private incident whereby the airport staff sort of insist that the queuing passenger to queue in another lane since he insisted that them haven't gotten themselves check-in. Having unable to show him the actuall printed broading pass. Personally was such a waste of me own paper if each time; boarding passes which I printed on my own is always being replaced at the document check counter. Shall I not bother printinng it out upon check-in though.
Unorganised and unfocused thoughts this is.
What I was about to type is the incident I had at the boarding gate. A lady approaches some other passengers; as I unwillingly seen from the edge of my eye. Many of which declined. As it was sooner than I thought she approaches me. Those of the few declines had me thinking; must it be something unpleasant. I did buckle up my mind for a bit. Little to my surprise. She was conducting a survey; representing the Australian Government Tourism Board or some sort. I was really cautious of myself. Agreeing a little by little and not entirely. For that; ended up I suppose more than an hour of answering questions after questions. Honestly, their question is way much much specific and wheee too detail I'd say. Is that even necessary. Anyhow it doesn't matter. What matter most is that I pretty much enjoyed the whole survey or questionaire thingy. Chit chat about the recent city incident. Which she did acknowledge that and insisted it never or hardly ever happened before. And of course many other good points.sSeaking about how much I've spend. Discussed about how much free stuff to do in the city. Me telling her that bicycle rental could be as cheap as only three dollar. With specific terms and condition of course. Melbourne Bike Share that is. Expressing my concern on the public transport vandalism; metro trains to be exact. Which somehow such vandalism creates a feeling of insecurity. Feeling of not being safe traveling in the city. Which is also one of the options of what are the cons or my concern when traveling to the city as a tourist. And also, also, brief discussion about guns ownership and guns law in Australia. Since to my surprise; because of my first-time visit, a little surprise to find a couple of gun shooting incidences be it in Melbourne or Sydney. Last but not least important note. She ended the whole session with a set of five bookmark as a token of appreciation for my participation. Yeh I know. At least something; a small gesture makes me day! Despite the fact that it ain't cost any in terms of monetary but it sure does for my personal intrinsic? value!
What the heck did I type so much. Ain't nobody; myself included gonna read this ever again.
