This would be the 1st time for me to go back by train. My parents kept persuading me that Larkin is very unsafe, do not ever go there anymore, seek for alternative, bla bla bla. To save cost, i chose train.

Hey this reminded me of my experience while i went to Tanjung Pagar to purchase the train ticket. I brought less than twenty dollar there coz i thought i can pay using nets, or can withdraw some money from any atm machine there. The ticket was S$ 19, but i only had about 3 five dollar notes in my wallet. "Can i pay using nets?" I asked. "No!". "So is there any atm machine here?" "The atm machines are not available." So i tried to get all the coins out. Unfortunately i only had S$ 18 in total. Having no choice, i walked around the railway station and looked for some kind-looking people to lend me one dollar.

I saw this chinese woman (around 50++ years old) and asked for her help. After asking me lots of questions, finally she said,

"You are genuine ya~ nah, take this money."

Thank you so much, madam! I really love your words — i mean "genuine". Genuineness, i love this. It’s the fundamental of all relationships.

So i bought the ticket. Before leaving, the woman asked me whether i have enough money to go wherever i’m going or not, and some more questions. Of course, i didn’t tell her i need more money. I am honest >D
