Taipei with Angela
It has been almost 5 months since we last graduated from STC, hardly had the chance to meet up and yet here we were, rostered on the same flight! Couldn't have been happier. haha... Call it fate.
Angela was 5 mins behind me when i reached the airport. We actually ran into each other in the mailbox room when i was about to go to control to check in. haha...
We were like,
J: "HEy..."
A: "Hey..."
J: "ANGELAAAAAA..."
A:"JONATHANNNNN..."
Then i wanna proceed to go shake Angela hand just like how we always do before briefing! haha...
angela:"Jonathan, U very funny leh!"
haha... Then we couldn't stop laughing liao. haha... Took me a second or two to register Angela was actually standing there lor. haha... u really dunnoe what to say lor, it's like the I-can't-believe-we-are-flying-together type of feeling. U are so happy that your brain actually stop working. haha...
To fly with your batchmate is really a rare opportunity. Some people in their entire career never get to fly with their batchmates. Yet, i've already flown with Yiling, AJ, Violet and now Angela. I can say i'm really lucky. haha... can go buy 4D already.
So then we got on with the standard procedure, check in, check load, check gate then back to catching up with each other. After a while something crossed my mind, i asked angela, "how long are we going say we are flying already?" haha... I have been telling everyone this is only my 3rd month flying when actually it's more like the 4th going to the 5th. haha... What the heck. haha...
Haha... being more junior has its advantages, like lesser expectation from everyone. haha... Ofcoz if they are very "gay gao" u can't really bluff coz there is always the staff number. haha... So inorder not to give each other away we decide to settle on "4th month flying", haha...
Was hoping to work with angela on the sector up unfortunately it didn't really happened lah. I work Aft she work Fwd, I worked Fwd she worked Aft. haha... ended up on opposite sides.
Anyway it doesn't really matter coz we still have the whole night in Taipei to catch up.


Went to buy doughnuts before heading back to the hotel and the stupid person cheat me of a paper bag. Angela and Pauline bought a NT50 doughnut and got a big carrier paper bag! i bought 2 NT75 Doughnut and only got a small miserable paperbag. Not fair! haha... Actually life is never fair, if not there will be nothing to fight for. haha... but being a gal does have its privilages. haha... Basket... still not fair!
Bunked in with Angela for the night and chatted till 3 or 4am, till we fell asleep. haha... i still remembered when i started flying Carina used to tell me NEVER NEVER EVER go to a stewardess room. haha... WAH... so now worst lah, i bunk in liao. haha... But that's how people like to percieve things. Innocence is never exciting for people. If not tabloid would never gain popularity.
Anyway half the time tabloid are all trash, where truth would revive itself and the issue would be a thing of the past, to be forgotten but yet at that time it was all the rage.
Well there's a saying that goes, "It's always funny as long as it doesn't happen to u". haha... That's so true. People laugh at other's misfortune but when it happens to them, they take it as if the whole world is against them.
Alright, back to Taipei...
Eh... We dun share the same bed lah, i sleep on the left one. haha... just that the K800i cannot take wide angles only, so cannot fit the 2 bed into the picture, so we end up squeezing to pose for this shot. Actually i really enjoy those bunk-in days, still remembered those SNY days with Azim, chatted and talk cock non stop, and of coz there are those serious topics as well, about life and stuff.
The non stop chatting keep us awoke all night! haha...
Every now and then i keep asking Angela she wanna sleep already or not? haha...
1am...
And i realised Angela can sleep alot. hahaha...
It's always more fun to have someone u know with u on flight. U've got company onboard to keep your spirits up during those bad flights, kakiis to go out with during those layovers and nightstops and recently someone to helped to take my mind off those troubling thoughts that has been bugging me the entire month.
I really needed this trip in view of everything that happened this month. I came back a more refreashed person. Or rather, less depressed and less suicidically inclined person. haha...

Went Shilin night market to have dinner, wah lan eh... eat like mad. But can't be blamed, it has been more than a year since i last been there. Really missed the food there. haha... But basket lah, rained the whole night if not we could have done some shopping. Taipei is a shopping haven as well if u do not know.

Well... maybe, not suicidically inclined, haha... but definately less depressed.
Happiness or sadness really depend on oneself actually, people can force u to make a choice, but untimately it's u who makes the choice. U have the power to say yes or no. Regardless of the consequences, ultimately it's u who's going to live your life. What's the point of living by other's opinion and expectation when it will not make u happy?
Actually i can say joining the airline is the best thing that happened to me. Not in a sense of fame or fortune but more of personal maturity. I realised i'm beginning to see thing in a newlight, a broader spectrum of things and no longer a tunnel vision controlled by other's opinion, views and expectations.
I'm starting to live my life how i want it to be.
