TRZ @ trichy @ tiruchirapali

aa had juz launch new routes to tiruchirapali, india recently. and im having flu straightly inside the cabin when i operate the flight. the wonderful smell strike into my nose i cant stop but to control myself from sneezing during the service. but this is the second point of writing this post.

becoz the first point i wanted to express is I OPERATE AN OXYGEN BOTTLE for the first time ! of course not for myself la im not having nosestuck until difficulty in breathing yo ! thing happens when me n the leading crew were in aft galley n plan to eat where by the aft crew are doing merchandise sales.

when all the foods are well prepared on the galley top n the moment i wanna scope it, passengers calling by chiming the call button. so the 'abit upset' me attend the call as in the pax wanted to order foods or anything la. the moment i approach the seat i saw a small crowd there n im a lil bit prepared that something bad must be happen.

i added my footsteps n i saw an middle age malay lady who sitting on the window seat is jerking here n there. straighat at the moment i shouted for backup in the hope of my set crew will come n help me. i meant i really shouted "BACK UP BACK UP" (now think back damn embarassing wei) as per stated in our first aid policies. according to the patient's husband, his wife is having high fever in india n now felt abit fainting n difficulty in breathing.

then leading n engineer came to me with a bottle of oxygen bottle and other crew page for doctor n inform captain accordingly. after remove the tudung of the lady n laid her down, suddenly there's 1039482 doctors come to identify themself n offer to render help for the lady. after examine, this doctor said the lady is hypoglacemia, that doctor advise to give some sweet drinks but the husband said his wife doesn't have any diabetic problems -.-

so talked to the patient n she agreed us to render oxygen instead of the idea that doctors given. luckily the engineer n leading was there to help me, everything go accordingly n she's ok after that.

operation of oxygen bottle is very easy n familiar in my brain, but when it comes to situation, u tends to place the cups for ur own rather than the patient coz u're panic n the tension of crowd is looking at u to perform. luckily everything was fine, i had compliment from the doctors saying that im calm n skillful enough to attend such a situation. but indeed, im nearly go fainting together with the patient already.

after that, i felt so full to continue my lunch i duno y. one thing good about india flight is, there will be alot of doctors onboard the flight. and i gain new experience on the first india flight i operate. kudos !

mother of one

wat are the value of rm50 for you ? you and you ?

hotlink digi top up ? 26.315 litre of petrol ? a meal ? a top's sleeve ?

but, with rm50 per month, i manage to support a child from YongSheng, China.

i cant remember y i pick china. it is probably i let them pick randomly or i picked it by myself. no matter how i complain china flight, how lame the mainland girl can be. but the blood that flowing in my body, still a china blood, this is wat i cant deny.

i've received the information of my adopted child from world vision malaysia last week, she's a 6 years old girl named E Qing Rong. with all the informations, they attached me a picture of her. what grab my attention the most is not the girl in the picture, but the background.

it is a desert with those yellow sands house n atap top. n very very hot weather. im sure they do not have fans, airconds, or televisions. she's staying with her grandparent, and her parent are in another state to look for income.

i wonder how deep is my karma that i've made before this. but im pretty sure that since i've been working until now, everytime i see beggars or peoples who need help, i'll always give them some money. not much, a riggit or two will do. it is not becoz im damn rich or wat, juz merely becoz i manage to help them, dats it.

i can spend rm50 for a hair cut, or petrol, a splendid meal, or half of my facial treatment. but i think it means alot for them, who deeply need help in other country. world vision offers alot of other programs besides child sponsorship, such as HIV fund raising, 30 hours famine, or medication funds for child from oversea.

you ! ya u're so rich u can have nice meals, nice cars, nice cloths and nice handbegs. y dun u juz spare rm50, lima puluh ringgit, to sponsor a child today ? help their parent to lessen the burden, or change their life. dun say they deserve it today bcoz of their karma past life, becoz u'll be having like wat they have now, by saying it. coz u're making karma everyday.

goto world vision malaysia now and sponsor a child. either from china, india, indonesia, myanmar, philipines, or vietnam. just rm50 will do.

"you've got one life, do something"

i saw a gigantic shooting star....

from the cockpit !!!!

i meant really really gigantic n very close to me !!!

it was a macau night flight and when we're cruising on 36000 ft above sea level, im inside the cockpit to accompany first officer as captain is out to lavatories.

when im on the seat n chit chatting with the fo, suddenly there's one glance of very very bright highlight green thingy flying pass really really fast outside the aircraft, i literally stoned for few seconds.

until the fo ask me 'wei u saw the shooting star anot' in a very relax way...

when i get my sense back, im like omgwtf y dun u tell me during landing la now the shooting star is so far away from us already i wanna make wish also tak sempat la...

but seriously, i dint know it was shooting star until he told me, at first i thought it was lightening or someone shoot the helping signals (so ignorance)..

it is the first time in my entire life i saw a shooting star, n it is a damn hell close, and huge ones.

hohoho chi minh

i guess it is not so bad to visit ho chi minh once in your life. for the sake of a stamp in your passport, n to appreciate wat u have now.

a friend of mine who live luxuries in kl told me, he would have kill himself if he'd ever live in kelantan for a year. but, i've been living there peacefully for 20 years n im still going back. until i stepped down in vietnam, i told my dad i'll kill myself if im forced to base in ho chi minh. seriously, no matter how worst kelantan can be, it is still 100 times better than vietnam. at least we dun have to die under massive electric shock or terrible traffic. like...


this !!

i cant stop my camera from snapping all those terrible electric cables when i first stepped in hcm. until the 2nd day im there, i then became neutral with the cables, coz IT IS EVERYWHERE.



the whole street are like that !


how if it is raining day ?


enuff with electric cables, now is the traffic. the main vehicle in hcm is bike. ho chi minh city itself have 10 million populations. and within the 10 million, they have 5 million bikes. all their cars are left hand drives and of course the roads and routes are opposite with us. u have to look 100 times left n right before u cross a streets. their bikes are everywhere, i think the total amount of bikes that i've seen in HCM for 5 days, is like the total amount that i'll see in the rest of my life at KL. im not good in cross road, and im even worst over there.

one of the tour guide told us, the ppl there only take 1 week to study for bike licence, and they need 6 weeks to study for car licence. seriously, there's not much cars over there, n ppl who drove a car, must be a filthy rich, very high traffic-tolerant level, and not a heart attack patient. the taxi driver also same ganas, one hand holding stering, another palm on the honk panel, drive n hon at the same time. my dad said the total amount of the hons that driver used is more than he (my dad) can use in his whole driving life.


bike n bicycle on the same lane with cars.

one thing i like about it, everywhere is nice helmets, and u will never see it in malaysia. coz they wear it juz for the sake of wear, it is not safe at all !!

deng

the main tourist street in hcmc in Pham Ngu Lao Street, it is also where i stayed for 5 days. been staying in a 2 star hotel called LeLe Hotel. not so bad after all, 20USD per nite and full facilities with aircond, ceiling fans, couch, satellite tv, fridge, water heater, n they even have balcony !


this is me n my sister's cribs

im neutral with the stars of hotel during travelling coz mainly we juz need a place to shower n sleep. and we wont be in the hotel for whole day long. and this gives me 80% satisfactory coz i first thought it would be those lame backapackers cribs as it is only 20usd per nite. means around 66+MYR.

Pham Ngu Lao street is mainly for tourist, so it is tour guide centre everywhere, i really meant everywhere. the only things that i prepared for this trip is air tickets and hotel reservations, we dint even book any trip in advance, and im glad i dint book any trip from KL tourist centre coz they charged really hell expensive. so we juz hop into any tourist centre there and we can get 1 day trip for 10usd maximum. depends on the place that u go.

on the 2nd day, we followed a 1 day city tour which cost 8usd per head, where they bring us to war remenants museum, reunification palace, thien hau pagoda, general post office and notre dame cathedral. the place where all tourist must visit. my dad damn like the war remenants museum coz it is airforce aircraft, choppers, and tanks everywhre!


the uncle in this pic is my daddy


on the 3rd day, we went to visit Cao Dai Temple and Cu Chi Tunnel where they charged 9usd per head. for me, cao dai is a confuse religious, coz it is a combination of tao-ism, buddisism, chritstians, muslims, hindu and catolics. means, it is confuse. then Cu Chi Tunnel is the place where vietnamese used to hide themselfe and their shelter during the vietnam war.


cao dai temple

cu chi tunnel

my dad on top of the tank again.

nothing much about 4th day trip. it is 1 day mekong river trip which cost 10usd per head where they bring us to the countryside of vietnam. i took bus, boat, sampan, and horse car ride in a day. we dun really enjoy it coz they bring us to somewhere near the river then take boat and sampan n walk in jungle n eat fruits n etc etc. COZ WE ARE KELANTANESE. and im more to kampung kelantanses so all these things i've already experience when im young. 1 day mekong trip, for us is like 1 day kulim (wakaf bharu) trip.


during the sampan ride

we bought the triangle hat (sakak) for 1usd each. wear it for a day to act like vietnamese n now we transform the sakak to beatify our house, instead of throw it away.


ha ha ha

dats all about my ho chi minh trip. i dint do any shopping coz there's nothing to buy, seriously. i juz bought myself a pair of sandals. dats it. they are more to handicrafts things over there. neh, the 3 statue on top my television is from ho chi minh too.

overall, this trip is real enjoyable, i cant even remember when is the last time i travelled with my parent. they're not as young as i expect. i dint know that my dad is already 65 years old and my mom is already 53. they have been working really hard in their life to give me n siblings a good life. in this 5 days trips, i realize that they're already really old. and i feel so good to hang out in their hotel rooms after shower, n talk back about the trip of the day, eating snacks, listen to their story about vietnam war. and this is wat i couldn't find in my hectic working day.

thinking back how i fight with them during my rebellion time, and still they try their best to give me everything. im glad that im now awake, n not a pai ka lui. i may not be a good daughter in the past, but i'll try my best to be one in the future. perhaps i should say, thanks AirAsia for giving me such an opportunities, coz finally, i get to treat my parent a holiday trip, at the age of 21 :)


they're the biggest sponsors in my life. my parent
