Everything will be alright... and it is!
Last night had me panic and feel guilty and wrestle so much to just make a decision. Just a few hours and suddenly the price jumped so much - SGD210. Felt so bad because it was probably due to my indecision and now it's going to cost my dad more. Really couldn't decide if I should just buy at that moment in case it goes up even more, or just try waiting again.
Something inside told me to wait, because even if I waited, the prices could go up yes, but then I'd probably fly off earlier then. Even though that would have been the less satisfactory of choices. Fly on Wed and I would miss writing class, have to manufacture a reason for that absence, miss bash and miss the talk - which worried me alot. Fly off on Thurs and I'd miss bash and might be able to attend the talk even though it'd be a huge squeeze - but at least there was a possibility. And I reasoned the high prices could be due to the working hours of the main office, being 8 hours behind. So I waited... (bated breath, stomach churning and all)
And thank the heavens above that I waited, because I got to fly off on Friday! Initially they always had no available flights for Friday, but suddenly not only did the price for Thurs drop to 604 (from 709, but still not 499); they actually had vacancies for Fri flight at 499! Omg, suddenly I felt very auntie (as people have always accused me of being...) but I was really so happy. I really want to grab this opportunity but it was causing me grief and guilt with the cost, the events I'm missing and the people I could possibly be pangseh-ing.

I love the internet.
