Thorugh the eyes of an ex

Yes, i have an ex..





An ex-air hostess as an aunty! hahaha, caught you guys there eh?Seriously, do I look like the type who had boyfriend? Nope, I didn't think so too.

Well, we had this conversation in the car on the way home the other day and I thought it was rather interesting so I'll post it up:

Just a breif intro, my aunt worked as an air hostess (with her good looks) for quite a long time then finally quit and settled down with my uncle in kuching, they had kids like in their 30+ years lar.

Btw, don't really remeber the convo, most probably changed abit so yeah.
A for auntie lar, I'm lazy

A:Haiya, so tiring, having 3 kids is not easy. Shannon, remember, when you grow up, don't have kids late or else you'd regret like me. When you're quite old they're still very young. (sighs)
Me:But then you got to be an air hostess and travel halfway around the world! You enjoyed life a lot ler.
A:Yealah, those were the days. Sometimes I also traveled with your uncle, Las Vegas, Tokyo .....It was so fun, with the high salary again!(she worked with s'pore airlines)
Me:Auntie, last time in your time, airplanes are sort of a luxury for rich people right? Not so common like nowadays(airasia-now everyone can fly)
A:Yeah.
Me:Wow, you get to fly on almost a daily basis. It must have been an honour hor?
A:Yeah, all the air hostess and air hosts are all very poise, elegant and good looking, like models.. All above 5"7, slim, "shapy"..Not like now, some of the air hosts are shorter than the air hostess, you know, they're suppose to help you with your baggage, if they're shorter than you, how can they do that?
Me: (i laughed, i could see her point)But i guess the price you apid for travelling around the world for so long is that your kids are still small lar..
A:Yealor, but I enjoyed those years of my service as an air hostess.

Don't remember much of the conversation, but i have a point to make here..
malaysia, our country, fortunately and unfortunately practises discrimination>>you know, they pick looks for air crew and all, unlike in America or other countries. For job applicants, you cannot discriminate because they're fat or whatsoever, make judgement solely on their talents and skills in that job, or else they have the right to sue you till you're bankrupt! So yeah, that's my point for this post.

Do comment, thats all for now.

Girl 1:Oh my god!
Girl 2:Oh damn, anorexia!

Girl 1:You following my car today is it?
Boy 1:Yeah.
Girl 1:Okay, bye Shannon!(walks away with boy 1..)

Girl 1:Eh, you know ar, boy 1 wears his pants when he bathes you know!
Girl 2:how you know?(girl 1 continue explaining n this is WHEN u can use ur imagination.....haha)
Girl 1:He say it's weird bathing with pants on...

Haha, yes, these lines i heard in real life..I hope you find them humorous too, if u don't then oh well!

That's all i got for now, tata!

Manila manila

I have recently traveled to Manila for..3/4 nights. It was rather enjoyable, and my parents and I were following a tour so we didn't need to find good eateries for lunch or hustle and bustle to get a cab so yeah, you get my point:D

My first night in Manila was a VERY bad impression..cause we arrived rather late at Clark Airport, like a small budget airport near Manilla and our tour guide was there waiting with his van. It took us around 2 hours to reach Manila and our hotel-Manila Pavillion.

You see, almost every hotel in Manila, has A CASINO IN IT. I could see in the casino and slot machines a bit when I reached the hotel cause the it was glass walls.It seemed...less fancy than I sorta expected out of a casino but of course, who am I to judge?Perhaps I watch too many movies which make the casinos super extravagant and luxurious..perhaps so..haha

So we reached the hotel around 10 or so, and we got our room. The shower was not exactly working, a very weak pressure. So I decided to bathe in the early morn, when I tried the shower for the second time(I was outside the bathtub), The pipes were sounding and gurgling like your stomachs when you're hungry(yes, this is when you use your imagination)and then the shower came on with a rather high pressure, like a normal shower but....

THE WATER WAS brown.Like seriously, it was brown and disgusting..We complained to room service and we were given a diff room and fortunately, the shower could function prop. :D

SO the next day we departed early to Rizal Park n the city where a monument was built to appreciate Jose Rizal, a national hero's "jasa" but the weather was hot so we just wanted to leave..
















Besides that, we also visited this "city within the walls", it has a term in tagalok(their language, like "bm") but i dun rmb..It was built by the spanish, its some sort of fort which holes to place canons, like wow rite? THey fort was built by the spanish and they themselves live inside, defending themselves from the filipinos. If my history is wrong, please forgive me, u can go research on the web urself! haha




<<<the fort




I remember this other v significant place where we visited. It's a memorial place for all the americans and filipino soldiers who died in the war, Manila American Cemetery and Memorial.
It was so beautiful, very hilly and huge patches of ground were covered with green, mowed grass and white crosses were placed in orderly rows, alphabetically. The crosses and patches of lawn(they were divided by roads for cars to drive on)went on and on and they were so neat, and big trees were planted here and there, providing shade and the landscaping was just simpy amazing. Imagine.
The bodies of the soldiers aren't there but it is to remember those who died in the war. Trani limestone piers within the hemicycles are inscribed the names of 36,282 of the Missing who gave their lives in the service of America and who rest in unknown graves. Carved in the floors are the seals of the American states and its territories.The chapel, a tall stone structure enriched with sculpture and mosaic, stands near the center of the cemetery. In front of it on a wide terrace are two large hemicycles with rooms at each end.
The two rooms at the end of the two hemicycles had mosaic maps of the war. It showed the army force, arrows pointing to where they went, us navy, and they were all made in mosaic!
The whole place was beautiful and if you're going to Manila, make effort to go there as it is serene, peaceful, unique and rather worth going, to me

i am BACK(p1)

hello, people! I am utterly, terribly, very, totally SORRY. I know, I know..I haven't updated in ages! no millenniums! It's been 1,2,3,4.............FIVE weeks since I've last updated..haha, sorry, lately, the most major thing going on was EXAMS! glad it's over, I can finally..
1. sleep (as in the type of sleep where i can dream and not think about tomorrow's paper)
2. play sports (i've been skipping badminton cause i lack time to study..)
3. watch tv(MORE, hahaha)
4. blog??(i've just been lazy, haha)
Hmm...lets do it in an orderly order..haha

exams
exams were ok, hard? i don't know, i'll let the rest of the form 1 to judge...I'm very happy that the school sorta split the exams up to 2 diff weeks, giving us the weekend to study. The last day was the..."worst" cause ot was KH, PM and PSK.

F.Y.I If you don't have a reality check, all those subjects need our(students) undivided attention to rmb all those terms, nilai, etc. I spent 1 hour stupidly memorizing nilais i did not need to memorize for moral...swt rite? haha. SO the consequences was that i didn't study for PSK and only on the same day so my expectations for PSK...will not be too high..

so far, have gotten some papers back..equally satisfying, haha. my lowest is BM, oh yeah, that reminds me of something but i'll write about it lastly..

AFTER exams
it's sorta normal, i just don't need to like study till 9, 10..so yeah

others
well,i promised to blog about my trip to Manilla wuite long ago as i have been busy and lazy so yeah, it'll be a totally no pic post cause we didn't bring along a camera. haha.

ms elaine, our english teacher wants us to make a film during her lessons for the rest of the year which is what, 3 weeks? hahahaha

for bm, ckg joey wants us to play games on the 2nd last week which 1) needs thinking skill 2)bm skill and 3)teamwork. she says that we don't have all that so yeah.....our last week will be spent watching SAW!! a horror movie which i do not know until they mention, most probably revolves around a chainsaw eh? hahahaha

blog-reading teacher
btw, people, CIKGU JOEY, a teacher from lodge who enjoys giving us uji diris and making us copy 50, 100, 200 and 1000 times of mistakes is out there! as in in the cyber world! haha, hi cikgu :D So everyone please beware, ESPECIALLY students from 1B, C and D, do not write anything bad about this teacher..........or else..you know..
