So the previous post I mentioned that I'm away for the Korean siblings for tuition, there was hiccup in between that delayed the class.
If you know Seri Maya at Wangsa Maju, that's one of the landmark for direction. Initially the parent, I address her Cheh, asked if I know where is Seri Maya, so I replied yes. Then, if i could recall, she just gave me her unit's location and so I went.
The hiccup begin when I stumbled at Seri Maya's guard house, I was there 10minutes earlier afraid that I need time to get to the destination. I was at the visitor's lane while checking in, there were approximately 4cars behind mine, honning. I made my way to the opposite site, there were 5guards approaching me because the unit number I gave was weird. Cheah told me J-08-05, which means Block J, 8th floor and unit 5, but the guards claimed that there is no 8th floor for block J. So I called up Cheah for clarification, she again told me Jblock, and so on.. Mind you, Koreans' English are just heavy for you to digest :) It took me 3 times to asked her the direction, but guess what in the end?
me: Cheah, I'm at Seri Maya guard house already, if you can come down and meet me?
ch: no no no, not Seri Maya, no Seri Maya, I at Villa Wangsa Mas, no Seri Maya.
(imagine her Korean accent!)
I made a huge U-turn hoping that I can make my way there, because I remembered one of my ex-student from Jin's Academy told me that she stays there, and she drew a rather simplified map with significant landmark, it was in my memory. I did make my way there, although I made another U-turn, because when I was at one location, the building is near in my sight, but it took me ages to get there :(
Cheah asked how would I want my payment like, she insist of paying me once a week and it will be on Fridays.
p/s : my students share the same surname as mine, it made me feels like a family!
aiks.
