July 1st, 2008.....morning.....
busy packing stuff, all ready to get on the plane on July 3rd to spend 2 years in UK as a Working Holiday Maker (WHM Visa), to earn ₤ to travel around UK, Europe and hopefully US of A....something the both of us have not done before.
Finalizing stuff before we are to leave on Wednesday....
- aips went to have lunch with her colleagues for the last time (or so she thought)
- i went to have my Maxis postpaid line converted to prepaid so that i can leave it with my old company
- we had to go to town to sign some documents to convert our homeloan
- buy goreng pisang from the SS2 lady and famous Homi Curry Puff to taste for the last time before we leave
afternoon.....around 4....
finished doing what we were supposed to do for the day....
reached home.....
gate ajar.......aips said "Maybe mom is feeding the cats...."
Parked car....walked in, saw grille door....
lock was cut, grille door pried open.....!!!
ran in.......downstairs looked alright i thought to myself....
ran up the stairs.....aips said "don't go up.....they could still be around!!"
i turned around, grabbed my monopod which was lying on the ground and ran up the stairs.....
opened the door to the office room.....my white MacBook which was left on the table was nowhere to be seen......
opened the door to our room.....clothes scattered everywhere, cupboard door is off its hinges, drawers opened and stuff thrown all over the room.....
opened the door to parents room.....EVERYTHING was all over the place.....
OUR PLACE HAD BEEN BURGLED!!!
ran down to tell aips......
suddenly, i realised something......i ran up again to our room....
looked at the opened drawer.....
No silver box.......
in the silver box were where our ₤ was kept
in the silver box were where our passport were kept.
in our passports were the WHM Visas......the visas that were supposed to let us experience life overseas.....
2 days before we were supposed to be leaving on a jetplane......
