A few weeks ago i've been to Singapore with my friends for a trip. To cut the story short, pabalik na kami ng manila about to board Cebu-Pac so we will be flying sa budget terminal. Then the usual process before departing documents, checking-in luggage etc.. After that papasok na kami ng immigration. I noticed meron isang girl, actually she's a filipina too lahat ng tao (pinoy) na papasok sa immigration hinaharang at kinakausap niya which puzzled me bakit kaya. Then she approached me, naiwan na nga ako ng mga kasama ko. As i look at her ok naman, disente and gave me the look of nagmamakaawa. She is requesting na baka pwede ko bitbitin papasok ng immigration yung iba nyang gamit kasi ang dami niyang dala, and may limit yung dapat i-hand carry, i asked why hindi na lang niya chineck-in yung iba? excess baggage na pala siya kaya napilitan siya magdala ng maraming hand carry. I got mental blocked, hindi ko alam ang gagawin at isasagot ko sa kanya.. Logically and rationally speaking i should have said NO, since hindi ko naman alam ang laman ng mga bagahe niya. Then i asked her ano po ba ang laman nito? mawalang galang na baka po kasi kung ano ang laman niyan ako pa ang mapahamak? then she told me puro pasalubong and mostly foods daw todo paliwanag at makaawa pa din siya, she even cried. Ayun ewan ko ba pero naawa at napapayag niya ako. Pero she promised after passing the immigration, and scanner of the bags kukunin niya na daw sakin. By the time na hawak ko na yung gamit niya, dun na ako napaisip, kinabahan at natakot. I always watch Locked up abroad sa National Geo channel and madalas na episode is nahuli sa airport dahil may contraband sa bagahe, naku baka maging drug mule ang labas ko dito.. Then there it goes, i passed imiigration tapos they will scan all hand carried bags na sabi ko eto na po.. Luckily it is clean, natatakot lang talaga yung girl na maharang siya sa dami ng dala niyang hand carry..

After that scenario dun ko naisip how stupid i am na pumayag dalhin yung gamit niya, what if napahamak nga ako? With one little stupid decision it will cost me more, even my freedom pa. Mahigpit pa naman daw sa Singapore lalo na pagdating dun. Even my friends told me Stupid Stupid Stupid!

Just sharing my experience..
