Things could be worse...

I flied from Hong Kong to Vancouver on last Saturday. The weather was nasty that day, and most of the flights were delayed. So I got on the plane with an hour behind its schedule, but that's fine because I was not in a hurry. After about two hours the plane took off, my plane suddenly encountered a turbulence. I could feel the plane shaking and went up and down. It was so bad that it threw a couple flight attendants up in the air. I could hear people screaming, and I almost shat my pants. It only last for three or four seconds, and luckily nobody was seriously hurt. Some passengers had their clothes covered with red wine or cold pops while others were covered with hot coffees. I was on my seat and thinking that things could actually be worse......

What if I was taking a dump at that time? Imagine I was in the toilet stall minding my own business and suddenly the turbulence threw me off the toilet seat. I was panicked and not sure what was going on. And suddenly shits flying all over the stall. If the planes went down and I died,  I would not want to die with shits covered all over my dead body. I do not want the police to tell my mom that, "I'm terribly sorry Mrs Wong. Your son's body is covered with lots of shits and somehow the shits and your son's body melted together, and...... Well Mrs Wong, you can go see it yourself......" 

Or what if the plane did not go down and I was still covered with lots of my own shit. Or what if I had a diarrhea? How the hell was I going to get rid of the shits? That was a 12 hours flight and should I stayed in the toilet stall for the rest of the trip? Those were the questions going through my mind.

Well I am still here so that means I got home okay. I feel so grateful that I am still alive and knowing that things could be worse......
