VERY FUNNY: One crew during horseshoe call for checking door armed status said: L3 DOOR IS ARMED AND COCK-CHECKED! bwhahahahhaha

The result of my hardwork : A better Roster this MAy! :) Swapped MAnchester for Munich! :) :)) :) Swapped my MeL- Aukland for a Shanghai and days off, Swapped my CAN for a Kuala Lumpur :) and SIngapore! :) and just few bearable turnarounds... Yey!!! Pag may tyaga May Nilaga!!!! :)

I had an existing verbal warning. And then just when it's about to finish, I got an absent because I was late for exactly 59 second for my Bombay flight. So, I got a written warning which would stay in my file for a year before further promotion.

And then I met this girl, who had the same experience, only difference was, she was stuck in Manila, she got bumped off twice coming back to Dubai, so she got an ABSENT as well. She had a verbal warning as well. And her manager gave her ANOTHER VERBAL WARNING! Lucky girl, isn't she? BUT seriously, it's unfar. huhuhu and I'm so jealous. grrrrrrrr. I think it really does depend on your manager...

Just Came Back From Bombay

This morning they changed my duty from Bombay to guess what??? BOMBAY!!! It was annoying coz I was already in my uniform and was about to walk out the door when they called me... I slept again right away after nila ko tawagan...

That 2 Hour nap turned out to be good coz I dreamed a good dream! I was with Piolo PAscual in my dream! hahahaha... and then after my encounter with Piolo, I dreamt I was eating balot! ngakkk weird!

Nway, Bombay turned out to be not so bad because we weren't full anyway. I was rostered in economy for this flight, and I prepared myself for the worst!!! but it wasn't bad at all! I think I get to fly with the best crew on turnarounds... :)

It's really true what they say, that sometimes, it's not the destination or the passengers who make the flight, it's us, the crew who make it.

So I'll keep my fingers crossed till tomorrow coz I have Trivandum next! Ahahahay!

Yesterday was my birthday, today is Vanessa's birthday :) we had dinner at the terrace with claudia and beh. It was simple and fun at the same time. It really is difficult to throw away parties or even just small gatherings if you are cabin crew. Most of your friends are away on layovers and i think only a miracle can make our rosters alike ... :( I miss my friends, but now even if it's just me and sonnie at home, I am fulfilled.

When we went home, I get to thinking about how important it really is for a couple to live only by themselves. There were happy times in our old flat but somehow, the feeling of independence, of simply being on our own, it makes a real difference in our marriage. I think it somehow made both of us feel more grown up, more in control.

But more and more, I am confused why they let us leave without a blessing, they made us leave with a heavy heart, they made us feel that we were making a big mistake. But I am very thankful we made it through, and now, we live our own life, the way a couple should really do.

happy birthday to me!

Missing The Old Days When We Get 5 Days Off Before and After Leave.

I miss it, I really Do. huhuhu

Grabe ang hirap mag plano ng leave. Bawat araw mahalaga. Bawat oras binibilang. Dati pag may 5 days leave ka pwede maging 2 weeks... ngayon, puro legal 1 Day before and after na lang... kakalungkot. Para makapag bakasyon ka ng mejo stress free, atleast 10 days para naman may allowance ka sa napaka stressfull na way of travelling naming mga crew. Standby Forever. Para kong nasusuka pag naiisip ko na mababump off kami ni sonnie. Nde kaya ng sikmura ko. Kung ako lang ok lang eh, pero pag kasama ko asawa ko, nde ako mapakali, paran kong nakadroga ang mata ko naka bright ang utak ko parang time bomb hanggat nde kami nakaupo at nakasara na ang pintuan ng eroplano.

So ngayon, ilang araw na kong naloloka. Pupunta kaming Bangkok. Gusto ko makasakay kami sa Airbus 380, excited ako, pero anak naman talaga ng tokwa, baket ganon, sabi recession, sabi walang kita ang kumpanya pero ang mga flight to Bangkok anak ng tinapa OVERBOOKED FOREVER! anyway, We will take our chances. 4 Flights naman eh. Yung papuntang Phuket pikit mata na kong magbabayad ng full fare, baka naman masira ulo ko pag dun kami nabump off ni sonnie. bka nde ko kayanin.

Tapos pauwi naman ng Manila, Jusko naman ang mga Pilipino, laging gusto ng reunion sa airport. Parang nag usapusap na sabay sabay lagi uuwi!

Haaaay pangarap na lang yata ang mag travel kami ng nde ako nasestress... Kaya dapat talaga pag nagbabakasyon sinusulit eh. Kahet pagbalik ng Dubai parang lantang gulay sa carrefour.

Excited na ko! Dalwang flights na lang bakasyon na kami! Theran at London na lang tapos Bakasyon na! Tapos Manila na to see my family and friends :) Kala mo naman ke tagal ng Leave eh 12 days lang dami gusto puntahan ! hmmmmph!

Thanks For all The Gifts =) We Will Treasure Them With All Our Hearts. Mwahhh
