My MBF

MBF = Man's best friend... if i'm talking bout my dog...
MBF= Metrosexual best friend.... if im hanging out with a suspiciously gay-kinda figure...
But i only got one kinda MBF...

my Male Best Friend lar..

Someone who knows how all my ex bfs look like...
Someone who knows all my tragic stories..
Someone who lets me bite n hound in the dead of the nite despite GMT differences machiam like a bf but is not...
Someone who is fortunately single at the moment... (not tt i preventing him from getting attached lor... NOT AT aLL. I is encouraging n aspiring wing woman eh ;p)

My smelly but

can't live without MBF


You KNS

Known each other since 14...


When he's a smelly "i-know-it-all-Patrol-Leader"

So??
I was Campfire Coordinator lor...

I seriously think i need to upgrade my camera..



Confirm unglam.
Argh!~

So he tot he saw a phantom of my ex bf.. but tot he was too fat to be real...

I was jus too drunk to recognise!

After all we finished a total of 2 jugs of Martell soda, 1 jug of Chivas Green Tea, 3 shots of Sex on the Beach each..
N ran outta cigges by the time we finished our 3rd jug.

i is reigning 5-10 ah lian queen among the nerds hor....;p~

I'm proud of yr Newpaper New Face icequeen conquests my young padwan... ...... ;)

;D

zzzzzzzz

New babies, running errands, n early nites...

My congrats to Flozy....
Who has welcomed baby Charis Chua in on the 1st June....

It's a wonder the woman got time to blog bout breastfeeding, cracked nipple n engorgement n unwanted visitations when she's already in the midst of all that...

I'm sure she wont be blog hopping...
Floz if u do see this send me a holler! ;D

Speaking of which...
I can't believe tt my ex sch mates are having babies n getting married all...
sometimes I still think that i behave very much like a adolescent...
not really realising that m very much the full fledged working adult at times...

Looking at my self indulgent lifestyle n already erratic schedule...
i wonder when will i ever be ready to be tied down...
I can't even have the time n space to devote to having a dog!!
N I soooooo badly want a dog!! ;'(

Anyhoo...
these 3 days off have been n will be spent well.

Day1was spent watching Prince Caspian with lover boy, n i managed to hop down to Little India to get my unruly eyebrows threaded n upper lip defuzzed when LB(read: Lover boy) had to go for an appt.

Not only tt.. after much procrastination, I finally got my Gardasil vaccine started on as well..
It's the vaccine against the HPV virus which causes cervix cancer n i seriously think all girlies should get it!

Hah! Dun think that cos u're not promiscuous u won't get exposed to the HPV virus sisters!
Cos even though u might have stuck to only 2 or less partners.. u never know if their exes or their exes' exes had mutiple partners or flings they never told u of...

Well u know how these things work.... ; |
Unfortunately...
So it's better to be safe than sorry.
N prevention is better than cure.

So please go get yrself vaccinated!!
Von dun say i never tell you ah!! ;p


Day2 was spent with an endearing miniature Schnauzer...
who let me pluck her gazillion ear hair without so much as yelping...
it helps tt i've become better at controlling dogs n i've also learnt today tt cooing words of encouragement in their ears really helps encourage better behaviour!

All thanks to the episode of Cesar Millan The Dog Whisperer I watched on Nat Geo whilst in NYC.
Go to cesarmillaninc.com to learn more bout being a pack leader!!

Lastly...
Day3 which will start in a couple hours time...
Will be spent bringing my Daddy to the knee doctor.... (yesh im really v much daddy's girl ;p)
Then probably having lunch with him if he has time for me. hehe~

N then going down to the airport to pick the DC up who will be arriving at approx 2.20pm.
I put him at home when i have enough of him n then I go back down to town for my facial... ;D
Much needed to remove a month's worth of clogged pores n dead cells.

I wonder if I can squeeze in a gym n a Mambo session in the nite.
JUs for the hell of making full use of my last day off.

The rest of the week ahead is chockablock filled with Ong Girl's, Ah wee's n Co's bdays!
N my roster is dead packed!
Got another lousy Colombo turn which requires me to report at freaking 5am somemore!!!
Which very much makes my off day b4 tt void! >;b

Right enough ranting...
Nite!

Jetlagged n ranting...

I think i is on frankfurt time..
Actually i dunno...
Cos i sleep at funny times in Fra also..
grrrr

So... i prowled Facebook n google n wikipedia n blogs n crew web email n attempted change of flights since 5am
Until i realised i've got pictures in my cam tt i haven't blogged bout..
wahhahahah~ ;p

Fri the 13th!!
My last Fri in sg til 18th Jul cos of my sucky Jul roster..
no need to say where...
If it's not Animal Resort, home, or airport for work when i is in Sg.. it's only Zouk.
Wat a sad limited life i have...

The boys..

Me n my ah Bang

Me n Cheshire Cat.....

See any resemblance??
Actually much much look alike... ;D
Haaahaaahaa!

"my precioussss..."

I wonder if tt was his way of showing affection... or possession...
hmmm... ; /
hehehehhee~

I like tt he tries to look unglam in photos so i can look more gorgeous...
;p

Much better...
i have become addicted to tall dudes...
;pp hah!

N robot-ed my way thru my blr flight...

*ouch ouch*

Fly Girl to Office Girl... hmmmmm

I dunno if I'm mad or wat..

But I just sent in an application for a short term ground job in the crew motivational programmes dept.

Maybe the monthly killer cramps got to my head

But i've been wide awake since 630 am n prowling the net..

While I was at it.. i tot i might as well do my homework for the BLR flight tt i gotta report for at 0500 Fri morning...

Can stay out later with batch girl n Deniz when i meet them later in the day i tot...

Then I opened the crew web n saw that posting ........

12- 18 mth on ground...

My first thot was... "Ha! no need fly A380!" *;D

2nd thot : "weekends n public hols in Sg!! hee heeeee! whoop~"

Last thot... "sian.. every morning travel to STC in Changi... -__-"

Aiyah...

dun think so much first lar...

Not even selected for interview also...

Just try!! See where it takes me! ;D

Also... If i force myself to an 8 - 5 office life for a period of 1 year...

N then return to fly life...

I dunno.. i might be able to figure out if i might be able to actually leave flylife in the long run... 

cos sometimes i love flying.. sometimes i loathe it.. heheh ;p

hmmmmm

Gen Y crew: Attitude Problem with a need to be put into place.

Something's wrong with the junior crew these days.
N by junior i'm talking bout crew generally bout 2.5 yrs flying to 0 yrs.

1) They all think they r god's gift to their colleagues. 9 months flying.. 1 year flying .. so wat!?
Not business class trained yet but act like everything also know.
irritating...

2) Business class trained liao... but work buay jai.
But act like damn eh sai.
I say damn kana sai.

Gone r the days when they used to dictate the height of yr hair or the shade of yr nail polish by seniority. An unspoken rule.
Gone r the days when the seniors die die must eat first then u get to eat.
Gone r the days where u r humiliated in front of the pax n fellow crew with mincing words n looks...
Gone r the days one has to drag oneself outta bed n give the entire set of crew wake up calls for lunch dinner n breakfast n wat not.

Sure.. these newer colleagues r happily drinking in the more relaxed culture..
So they seem to forget tt their JOB is to WORK ONBOARD...
Not just to cruise til destination n shop n sight see... - ___-"


Dun be mistaken..
I never was one to zap colleagues more junior than me.
In fact, there were situations I bite my tongue when some non respecting bitch say something completely unnecessary. I just give that patronising smile back. ; ]
I find it hard to correct someone else esp when I have no formal authority.
I guess everyone has the same mentality n that's why standards have slacken.

But hearing the stories i been hearing for the past few months..
N stumbling on to some blogs n reading them..
I would like to say this to my fellow colleagues of tt category i speak of.. :

If someone says u've got an attitude problem.. it probably is true.
U suck it in n say yr sorries n thank yous.
Dun try to expect everyone to like u n take care of u when all u think bout is yrself.
Pls be mature cos i understand tt this might be yr first job for many of you,  but u r now a working ADULT.

U r in a line where a humble attitude will bring u places n make things easier for yrself.

Pls also work with consideration to other pple. Watever u do has consequences which affect yr colleagues.

Otherwise... do serve up yr 18 month (or more? i dunno if there's a change) bond n leave the airline.
We dun need u n yr ooh-look-at-me-sashay-down-the-aisle-with-my-false-eyelashes-n-wadeva bimbotic nonsense.
We do not enjoy breathing down yr neck as much as u not like it too..
Really, we just want to get our jobs done n have everyone put in their fair share cos we're all paid the same allowance.

I hate to say this...
But some of my newer colleagues r REALLY getting on my nerves more so recently..
And the yaya papaya ones r usually boys N girls aged 24 n below.

I seriously wonder if it's age or pure naivety.

Or just the way the newer generation is being brought up.

That Thing That Thing That Thing...

U know that Lauryn Hill song where she goes like

"Girls you know u better watch out, some guys, some guys r only about That ThingX3"

So we pretty much have an idea what is That Thing in this context...

But when she flips it around n goes like

"Guys you know you better watch out, some girls, some girls r only about That ThingX3"

So i was just wondering...
That Thing in this context can take on several other meanings...
Why is it that???

Maybe I should really listen to the rest of the lyrics other than the chorus...
hmmm
*frowns n ponders*

Inconsolable.. but doesn't give a sh*t

I been inconsolable for a day...
But i'm over it...

Now i'm just sick of everything...

Flygirl flying into a massive rage

I'm still angry.
It can't go away.
I shouldn't have checked my fucking roster for the nite b4 i turn in.

Now I'm so angry I can't sleep!!!

There r perhaps at least 2000+ crew who r still only duo fleet n never had to endure the hardships of the 74M.
They get Rome, Paris, Amsterdam, Moscow Houston, HK sfo, .. blah blah blah...

N WE ... we!!!... get chosen for shit like that!??!?!?!?

I'm a good crew. I'm a hardworking crew.
I'm a crew who takes pride in my job.
N this is the way they fucking show their appreciation for me.
For pple like us.
Once is enough...
ESPECIALLY FOR 10 WHOLE FARKING MONTHS!!

NOW TWICE!?!?!?
N with the Beijing Olympics round the corner in AUG..
Where they will fly the A380 there.
KNN sure packed to the brim.
Fuck... every flying fyck flight is packed to the brim already.

Someone get flygirl another job.
I'm quitting in Mar after my 5th yr gratuity.
No more delaying til 7th Jul bonus.
Which no matter how great it sounds (6mths!?) never amounts to more than 1.5 months' worth of take home anyway.
For a job which doesn't preserve much dignity.
KNN!
CCB!

FG&^%*^&^*&(*&(())FARK FARK FAARKKKKKK!!!!

ROster's out.. n they farrrrrking roster me for A380 service training!?!?!?!

I love the Sex...

i dun understand the bad reviews...
Why is it bad that they all have happy endings??
The characters deserve it!!!!!

N it was funny.. n engaging.. n made pple cry n laugh...
So wat!??
You pple r so jaded u dun believe in happy endings?!?!?

Or do u just not believe in perfect wardrobes n penthouses for happy endings...? ;)

Anyway.. i loved it so much I watched it twice...
2 nights in a row...

Oh how much i love it!!! ;D

The audience in Orchard Cine were literally whopping n clapping when the opening credits started...
N when the gung ho Charlotte gave it to Big with her "well" thought out line..
*giggles*

Have never encountered a more engaged audience even for Star Wars! ;p
N it wasn't even opening nite lor..

Watched it with.....

Me ah bang n fren, Deniz, Jess, Wee, Tiff but no Gwen cos she working..

Weeeee!
We saw peeps taking pictures with the posters wat!!!
So we thought we'd bit cheesy as well..
kekekeke~

Wat better way to end the night but with a round of Cosmos!!
At Zouk~

N my fave Pic for the night..

We promise to be each others' mirrors for life!!
WAtch the movie if u haven't!!!!!
Girls u gotta bring yr guys to go watch the movie!!!
Cos they've gotta learn that there's a reason why there has to be a diamond....
To seal the deal!!! ;p

*rant n rave*

Milan Florence Pisa... Flygirl's new places!

If it ain't the Starhub server screwing up.. it's Blogger's.
I'm getting pretty impatient sitting here waiting to upload the pics batch by batch...
n it gets all the more annoying cos the Blogger server is intermittently not working...

Anyway I decided to go ahead with the blogging although there r some pics which I'm not including...
They will be on Facebook lar..

Milan

Grafitti

Grafitti...

I think they r extremely pretty though...
Speaking of which... we'll never see that happen in Sg...
Talk about trying to develop street culture...

Fooling around in the Metro..

"Excuse me... can u tell us where the Tokidoki concept store is pls??"


Found ya!!!
*smooch* u cutie!!

Happy flygirl..
Was prepared to not walk outta store without buying anything...
Was not easy to find the place!!!

N too many cute colourful stuff to resist..

Happy prints..
Does more to me than any Gucci or LV.
Er... maybe only Dior comparable.. ;p


Found along the way when tokidoki-ing..

The Duomo revisited!!

<3
The boys n pigeons.
WARNING though: dun let anyone put corn or bird feed in yr hands when u r there!!!
The boys got cheated 5 euros

I walked away when I saw one of them obliging..
True enough... he asked for $$ after a pic was taken..
The boys were new but they sure learnt a good lesson!

Nothing is free... anything which is is prob too good to be true eh.

tata... we looking for a cafe to chill with espressos n then head back to room to Zzzzz~

The next morning...

Eurostar to Florence..
Yeah.. my jus woke up face + hair..
Prevalent outstation..
M possibly the sloppiest flygirl cos zzzz time is too precious!! ;D
No like makeup overseas as well. Make up n dress up r for myself in Sg only. ;p

There r no trains direct to Pisa from Milan.
One HAS to get to Pisa via Forence from Milan.

There r hourly trains from Milan to Florence n trains pick up from Florence to Pisa every 15-20 mins.

Travel time:
Milan > Florence = 3+ hours (24 euros)
Florence> Pisa = 1.04 or 1.22 hours depending on which train u take.. (5.40 euros)
Pisa > Milan = 4.50 hours (40 euros)

Total cost : 69.40 euros
Not factoring in the Metro n internal train rides from hotel to main train station in Milan

For the curious.. Milan > Venice train costs only 26-29 euros n is 3+ hours long.

On the Eurostar
Coffee, zzzz, yumy proscuitto sandwiches, girltalk.
forgot to bring DS lite n iPod... grrr

Good thing one can jus look outta the window n stone n never get bored..

we passed Bologna..

n finally..

FLORENCE

Firenze Santa Maria Novel(Nouvel?? can't recall)
a.k.a Florence

Where to go wat to do here huh?
shites.. din do research before coming..


So we jus hit the streets..

And picked up on a popular site..
The Duomo in Florence!


N the church jus right beside the Duomo..
someplace they use for baptism..
I really cannot remember how the spell the name of the place..
Sorry!

Eeeps! I jumped outta the flowerbed where i was standing on to take this...
Yeah.. im one of those tourists who dun read signs..


Souvenir shopping in Florence..
Next stop: Pisa!!!

PISA

we walk long long before we finally got there...
;(

the sun's so hot!

This is where I first spotted it...
where I 'eeked' as I turned the corner of the street n looked up

we did funny things ourselves...

Plus lotsa self taken 'self love' portraits as mentioned here..

N then we sit down n laugh at other pple..sibei juay pattern...

;D

Conclusion:
Flygirl loves Italy...
