Post Distribution Centre Hunt

After coming home from college yesterday, i found a notice in my postbox saying that no one was at home to receive a parcel for me. I was like...the stupid maid must have gone deaf again, and my hopeless brother is always ignorant. So it was only natural for both of them to not notice that the postal service was ringing the door bell! I don't even bother asking both of them what were they doing.
So, after reading where to collect the parcel from the notice, i had no idea where is Pusat Bandar Puchong 11...i received one notice a while back and went around the IOI Mall area to look for that place but failed, so no one collected the letter back then....this time, i must find this miserable PBP 11 place, i googled the map and found out it's further up at Bandar Puteri (Princess Town) =.=" so the place i went last time was wrong...

My high school best friend lives in "Princess Town", so i called him and he said it was around the DHL courier service building...i decided to take a gamble and go to that place alone - drive - a place i've never been to, part of Puchong i've never been to. (I wanted to ask AkikoWolf to accompany, but felt guilty coz few days before i didn't read her sms until the very last hour, my mobile turned off by itself when her sms came in, and i only received it again until the next day! i only realised the reason why my mobile turned off by itself on the 2nd day)

So i drove to that place, reading road signs, the further i went, the road signs started to say Putrajaya and Klang, i was like, that's too far, i should turn into the left junction when i see one if not i will end up in Putrajaya and be lost there. I don't know how, but I wrote down a E11 and B11, a triangle symbol on the map i drew, which i copied from Google Map, so i notice a divider and quickly turned left.FYI, there's no signs to tell which road i'm on...so i drove into an unknown road, there's many factories on both sides of the road, until i saw the DHL courier service building! I was at the right place, now i see some road names, i was at a crossroad...lost again, so i took a gamble and turn left to Princess Town and i saw a big "Turn here to Postal Distribution Centre" so i turned into the junction again.

Again i was lost when i turned into the junction...i saw another "Turned here to PDC" but the arrow was covered with illegal advertisment...i was like WTH, so i turned left instead of going straight, more road names, so i rely on my "map" after that, after that i notice postman coming out of a junction, so i turned into the junction that he came out from...and there it was, the PDC!

I FOUND IT!Guess what happen when i went inside...CLOSED FOR PRAYERS! I was like !@#$%^&*! As you can see the picture above, the sky is dark and it was about to rain heavily. I had to wait 30 minutes until it opens again, and during that 30 minutes period, many people came and had to wait until 2.3opm! I hate driving when it rains! One post officer collected letters from the post box that was in front of the building. I was bored.So after i went in again, i peek into a postal van, and it was full of undelivered parcels and boxes, and i saw a few Amazon.com boxes^^ I "climbed" up to the 1st floor, and they told me to go down to collect my parcel...ugh

I went behind the building, and there was so many letters, parcels, and boxes, like a factory! And i saw another few boxes with the Amazon.com logo on it...i don't why but it made me excited. So i gave one of the post officer the notice and he told me to see the manager in the office, ugh, so i went into office to see that man, his room stinks of tobacco.

So he went to a cupboard...yes...a cupboard! And there was it! My stuff...After collecting my parcel, i realized that i only googled how to go the PDC, but didn't goggled how to go home! So i called my high school friend again, and he gave me directions to go to his Princess Town house area and how to go home from his place. I was back on track when i reached Tesco Puchong.

Happy Halloween and Happy Birthday to my cousin and to that friend who gave me the directions!
