So, we quickly went back to the mall and retraced my steps. I went around frantically and asked the cashiers and security guards if they have seen my I.C. They all said no. The thought of having to make a police report and going to the gaumen office to get a new I.C. made me dizzy. I started to blame myself for being so careless. Luckily, hubby didn’t grumble or scold me because of my carelessness.
We went back to our car and do a search again before heading home. Can’t find it too. On the way home, I was thinking about Oscar’s mommy who may have lost her passport and I could relate to how she must be feeling. When we almost reached home, I had this funny feeling and looked down at my left leg. I SAW IT. My I.C. was lying next to my leg. Once I picked it up, I began to have goosebumps all over my body. I swear that I looked at that place thoroughly and couldn’t find it earlier. It is so strange that my I.C. appeared suddenly.
What a relief! I will certainly be more careful next time. Could we carry a photocopy of our I.C. instead? Is it illegal to do so?
aiyoh…
lucky ur subject was lost and FOUND… so i know from start u found it….
but but, the fact that it was at such obvious place, a bit scary, since u already looked and searched… hmm… lets just blame it on blind spots caused by panic… 😀
Maybe just ‘ngan tai thai kor long’ leh??? Good thing is you found it. Not sure if can bring photocopy IC or not wor..
Luckily u found ur ic. I remember my mum like to throw her ic everywhere and one day she really loss it. So remember be extra careful next time 😀
i thought i read it somewhere about bringing a photocopy of ic…but can’t remember whether it is allowed or not..
Thank god you found it! I know what you mean about searching high and low for something and not be able to find it at the first time, but when you search again, voila! It’s THERE! *shakes head*
wow lucky found it…must be so relieved la
i know the dread feeling of going to gov-men dept!
Last week when i go to photocopy my ic for some purpose (haha, u know right) i terlupa my ic at the photocopy indian shop, till night time when i went out for dinner, only i realise i forgot to take back my IC. Lucky when i went back to that place..he still keep my IC..thank god!Y lately all ic passport or ic “terhilang” ar..
luckily – the hassle of having to get a new one is no joke! I am always afraid when giving IC at security check points that i will forget to collect it back
kena marah or not?
shannon – it is scary…wonder what happened 😉
etcetera-mommy – eh, my eyes are very small la…maybe that explains why i couldn’t find it 😀
desperate mummy – i’m very careful now…i keep the I.C. at home ;D
mom2ashley – yeah..i remember reading about it too when the snatch thieves incidents were on the rise. forgot whether it’s legal or illegal 🙁
Nadia – Maybe in a panic or hurry, we weren’t able to see it. but then, it’s really really strange.
mommy of two angels – hehehe…very very relieved!
annie q – wow…luckily the man is kind enough to keep it for you. i heard some unscrupulous people can sell our i.c. and make big money.
hmom – yeah…i’m getting quite paranoid now.
sasha – no lah. no marah. guess hubby was also in a confused state…hahahahahahaha
haha….moong cha cha.
last time my dad very hiau went to put his keys inside a hidden pocket and forgot totally about it. Then when time to go back he realised the keys not in his pocket. He searched everywhere and even traced back all his tracks. We were all so kelam kabut. He was worried someone might get his keys and will try luck to locate his car so my mom and myself went to the car and waited while my dad went to report to the security of the mall. Then after a long wait, my dad asked us to go home to get the spare keys and when I went back and was just about to meet my dad… guess what? He just realised the keys are in the hidden pocket!
Heng ah..!!
