"All our insecurities have evaporated. We're in the clouds now. We're wide open. We're spacemen orbiting the earth. The world looks beautiful from here, man. We're nympholeptics, desiring for the unobtainable. We risk sanity for moments of temporary enlightenment. So many ideas. So little memory. The last thought killed by anticipation of the next. We embrace an overwhelming feeling of love. We flow in unison. We're together. I wish this was real. We want a universal level of togetherness, where we're comfortable with everyone. We're in rhythm. Part of a movement. A movement to escape. We wave goodbye. Ultimately, we just want to be happy."

There is strength n beauty in vulnerability. Most people lose it quickly to survive the harshness of society; a strong facade takes place. But life is not about survival, it is to be lived.

The life changing moment hit her at her weakest.
What meant to be a trip to offload became a load more than the previous.
I didn't realise my insensitivity. But I appreciated her honesty.
I couldn't understand but I knew she meant a lot to me.
Be strong, everything would fall into place.

DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE A FLIGHT ATTENDANT’S BOYFRIEND?
by: ARLENE LEGASPI
You think you have what it takes to be a flight attendant’s boyfriend? Here are FEW things you have to put through. And that’s why they say these jet setters are the Top 3 Most Spoiled Girlfriends in the World. If you’re in a relationship with one: man, we give it up to you…. And If you’re planning to have one:
Be prepared, Be very very… prepared.
1. Do Not expect her to drive the car. She’s most not likely to have a driving license, she’d say “Babe, I only have a passport.”
2. Familiarize yourself with SKYPE, YM’s. VoIPs. She worships those amazing discoveries.
3. DO treat her like a princess before she can treat you like her king. Get ready for statements like “Buy me food, or else Ill break up with you!”
4. DO NOT be surprised if she wants you to take several shots of vaccines: Hepa B, Hepa A, Meningitis, Yellow Fever etc. etc.
5. Stay away when her roster comes out. That’s the next worse time to PMS.
6. BE grateful of her smile. You get it for free. IN the skies, it’s worth 6 digits.
7. BE READY to see yourself 5 to 10 years from now. She wants a man who knows his direction.
8. DO give importance to time, preferably Military time. 21:16 is NEVER the same as 21:17
9. DO NOT wake her up when she’s sleeping, even if you wonder “ she must be hungry after sleeping 18 hours already!” Again, LET her wake up by herself.
10. DO NOT mess with how she arranges her suitcase. Boots are for Boots sack, shampoos are for toilettries, undies are for undies bag and so on.
11. DO NOT expect her to remember names of your friends in one sitting.
12. DO NOT accuse her of bragging when she says she went to Paris for Coffee or just hit the gym in Berlin. She’s just plainly, innocently telling you a story.
13. Do not get intimidated by the beautiful men around him, chances are she’s already used to/sick of seeing hotness in form. Those men have lost their beauty.
14. DO NOT call her on the phone when she’s on Standby. DO NOT… ever.
15. Do NOT question why Half of the dresses in her closet has never been worn, and she still complains, she doesn’t have anymore.
16. Do Not remove any clothes you think is too much in his suitcase, remember: she has four sets of outfit in her suitcase: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Fall.
17. She expects you to learn how to read an Aviator watch.
18. And when she gives you that expensive Aviator watch, Do not Ask her: “ what time is it there in Khartoum?”
19. The next best gift to a Limited Louis Vuitton bag is a fancy Dual Time Watch.
20. She carries a First Aid Kit with her and 26 kinds of Supplements: Vit C,E,A,B, anti-Oxidants, Gingko Biloba, Evening Primrose Oil, Horseradish Capsules, etc. etc. even those Pills (damn-those!) you request her to take everyday!
21. At least buy McDonalds before your holiday flight, she prefers it over aircraft food, and yes even over the caviars in first class cabin.
22. Understand that discovering a designer dress on the clearance rack can be considered a peak life experience.
23. Make sure of the inaccuracy of your bathroom scale.
24. Remind her which country she is in first thing when she wakes up in the morning
25. During dinner, when she asks you whether you like chicken or beef… Oboohooy! you better think fast!
26. Begin to be scared when you oversee a long line in Immigration, she has zero tolerance on airport queues.
27. Work your muscle for a trip together, you’ll be carrying at least four baggages for her. A Gucci make-up bag, a Paul Smith, a World Traveller Trolley, and a Burberry Laptop bag at least for a Domestic Flight.
28. A bouquet of flowers is THE if not, THE ONLY way to say “I missed you” when you pick her up at the airport.
29. Prepare yourself for her jetlag, otherwise known as the PFS or the POST Flight Syndrome. You should be awake when she is and asleep when she is . You don’t want to see a whole 72 hours of tantrums.
30. And lastly, it might seem like she thinks she is overqualified for love. But DO remember that in reality, she feels like she is just an ordinary girl standing in front of a boy, asking him…
For a foot rub… after a damn…long flight.

I typed,
And I deleted it.
I typed again,
And I deleted it.
I typed once more,
And I deleted it.
It would probably not make any difference.
The extraordinary, the exclusivity that I'm looking for, prolly would nv happen to me.
Just because,
I'm like any.

I've always adored valentines day. All these commercially made days somehow made a lot of money out of girls (and women im sure). It's just a day to feel loved by your other half. All the chocolates and the sweet nothings. Everything is just painted red, love and in hearts. Feeling loved is such a wonderful feeling. :)
This year, my flowers came from bestie. Thanks for painting my valentines red this yr from over 15000km away. Feel the love max <3

Dad's leaving this evening.. Spent my morning with my old man at bencoolen with his favorite Indian breakfast. :))

I was talking to Von, was telling her the 5 stories I heard today during the flight. Of real stories, of heartaches and of disappointments.
Every girl searches for their happily ever after.. What's wrong with that? Love is just probably too much of a gamble.. Too much of a risk.. The time and emotions invested may not equate..
Unfortunately, stories I hear are very bad gambles. Then again, how often do I hear happy ones?

Finally 2011 has come to an end.
It had started with many hopes, wishes and expectations and ended with much disappointment and discouragement.
Someone told me, on the 30dec, "with expectations, comes disappointment."
It was a wake up call, to both work, and in every aspects of life.
I wanted to be up to people's expectations, and not mine.
I was just never good enough.
So bottom line..
The Best things in life are the unexpected.
And change,
Is still, the only constant.
This year has to be better than the previous.

Melbourne - JETLAGGGGGGGGG
My flying career is seemingly coming to an end.
It was attracting at first; the pay, the overly publicised SIA girl, Hotels, the travelling, Sydney, SHINJUKU, London, visiting granny when i get lucky etc..
But, it's not my place to stay. It's not my playground. From the start, it was a twist of fate. It should end soon? Maybe row or seow would change my mind, who knows?
All i know is, its going to be another painful 1 year 5months before the lum sum inch into my pocket.
Meanwhile, i suffer the exhaust, the jetlags and the blueblacks. Physically worn out.
I realise, i'm no longer 20.
I can't keep my smile nor hop like ever before.
3.17am MELBOURNE time!!

So... i'm getting all geared up to start travelling..
i've been bounded to only short flight the last two years, mostly studying and her.
but ohwell, i've returned back to LONG sectors now.... :)
First Stop was to Christchurch 10JAN...
Pretty much a quiet town, nevertheless, i bought my sparkling moscato and strawberry wine. :) YUMS!~
At the Supermarket..
Look how pretty they are arranged according to their colours! :)
Second Destination - Amsterdam 18JAN...
My first time to Amsterdam! :) Finally
carmen (rostering system) remembered me..
Met up with Mom's friend who was staying right beside my hotel! :)
Look where i went.. :) A mamashop that sells WEED...
How can these be possibly LEGAL!?
I havent tried any, but i've heard so much about it... Mom's advice before i left amsterdam was, "Don't go to Bulldogs!!" apparently, it's a claimed coffee shop but naughty stuffs are done there.
Went to the flower market..
I bought mom two bulbs, thinking that the flowers might bloom just in time for CNY... i wonder whether it really grew..
This is my aunty.. she's been staying in amsterdam with her husband for 10 years now and she misses Singapore weather and food. Hopefully she visits us in december..
Mom and I bought alot of local food like curry, laksa, mee siam, chicken rice but all in packet form... hopefully she'll get a taste of Singapore and she'll come visit us soon! :)
Third Destination - NRT/LAX... 23JAN
I Love these stations but i'm so jinxed with them... I forgot to pack my undergarment bag once and left it in NRT... i only found out about it in LAX and had a crew to pass them to me. :(
This flight wasn't that bad (Hasn't ended yet cus i'm at my last sector) so far. :) but my cargo is saying stop buying to me!!! More pictures on NRT/LAX on next!
I'm blessed with really good roster this month. :) MORE PLEASE!!! :) CARMEN!!!!

“Lollipops turn into cigarettes. The innocent ones turn into sluts.
Homework goes in the trash. Mobile phones are being used in class.
Detention becomes suspension. Soda becomes vodka.
Bikes become cars. Kisses turn into sex.
Remember when getting high meant swinging on the playground?
When protection meant wearing a helmet?
When the worst things you could get from boys were cooties?
Dad’s shoulders were the highest place on earth and Mom was your hero?
Your worst enemies were your siblings. Race issues were about who ran the fastest.
War was only a board game. And the only drug you knew was cough medicine.
The most pain you felt was when you skinned your knees, and goodbyes only meant until tomorrow?
And we couldn’t wait to grow up?”
