losing passport

hello assalamualaikum,

yeah, as u can see, i lost my passport. my INTERNATIONAL PASSPORT. not good at all
so folks, don't ever loose ur passport. the process to make a new one is actually simple, but when u do it alone at an age like me, where i have never really settled important matter like this by myself, it becomes quite hard lah.

 firstly , i had to go to the POLICE STATION to report that i lost my passport, even though i just misplaced it at home. actually my mother misplaced it. but whatever.

as there was only big old cars at home which i don't dare to drive, i walked to the section 6 police station. it's not that far, so i was fine.
i was so relieved the minute i set foot there, unfortunately when i explained my situation, they said they could not help me cause their computer got struck by lightning and so their system is temporarily down


(great, on the day i decided to go on report it, their computer got struck by lightning)

so they told me i have to go to the section 9 police station. and i was like

WHAAAAT ?!

but i still had to settle it so with all the energy in me, i walked all the way from that station to the section 9 police station. truthfully, it was so so so tiring, but i don't have a choice. gladly i was patient enough to face all that.

i could have asked my brother to send me, but he was studying for his exams, and i just don't have the heart to bother him when he just got his momentum to study.
(suddenly i have the heart to be nice to him T_T, weird)
 so there i was, walking, to the police station.

just as i arrived , i was already lost. searching for the lift was so hard. who designed that station ? what were u thinking getting me lost like that ? so i asked a couple of people around there.
alhamdulillah i managed to go up.
so i went into the special branch office and explained my situation. after that, i was interrogated. scary. but i managed. the bad thing is, i felt like crying with no solid reason at all. probably the situation was too overwhelming.

so the situation was kinda like this...

bhahahaha, so not logic right ?

*with a stiff face* the policeman interrogated me..... quite like this.....

where did u loose it = at home
how did u loose it = misplace
how old are u = 19
where is ur mother = at work
why didn't she come = cause she is working =.=
are u working now = im on holiday
where do u study = UIA
what course = inshaAllah pharmacy

*with a big smile* suddenly.....

oh really, my daughter is also on holiday. she's also taking pharmacy, ur going to kuantan right ?
so u were studying at PJ too right ? just like my daughter. :) :)

so he continued again.....

actually we can't allow u to report this, because it's ur fault. u were careless. { me :( } but according to me. i'll help u. but u must know that it's a big risk for me when i grant u this report ok ?

woohooo ! thank you sir ! ^_______^

after being interrogated i had to go back down to report it. and that was the most blur thing ever. i got a number then i waited, my number was called, i went over to the counter, hand the paper, he types things on his computer for a long long time. then i received another paper and done. like, what ?!

then i wanted to certify the report, and he said go over to the last counter. certification costs 2 ringgit.
so i went to the last counter, and it was the same guy at the counter before. i almost laughed at his face. but of course i held it in. i wanted to pay 2 ringgit using a 10 ringgit but he had no small change. in the end i ended up searching my whole bag for enough coins. fortunately, luck was on my side as i managed to find ample coins to pay 2 ringgit.

after all that i went to the commissioner of oaths for a signature that cost me 4 ringgit
lastly i went to the immigration and yeah, because i lost it. its gonna cost me 300 ringgit !
please come to me money ~

the point is, its quite interesting to settle these things all by myself

1. i felt like a grown up. hehe
2. i learned a LOT of things
3. i certainly see a lot of situation in each place i went.
4. and of course, it teaches me to be independent

so don't be afraid to try, we are gonna face unexpected things someday.

loving the experience.
