hiZ!!!
some housekeeping matters... i've noticed that my host from which i use to host the photos cannot support the massive traffic of this blog....lousy site huh... haha not really actually... cause i know i have wonderful and great friends who are out there and frequently come and visit me quiet and private life.. i take this oppotunity to once again thank you for your support... its very encouraging to see the counter at 113... its amazing manz....

oki on to todays post ^_^ offically my exam leave from YFC (Youth Flying Club) is over and i'm back to flying again.... well got up to a lousy start today... my right eye was not functioning properly... nearly crashed into a wall, door frame and pillar.... jia lat manz... and its somemore in my house!!! thats why we have 2 eyes.... dun believe we need to eyes? well try touching the 2 ends of a chopstick using only 1 eye and tell me what you experience in me tagboard ya? its really interesting at what will happen..

so practiced my checks today at home for my flight... argh... so damm far behind my friends.... they're like at least 3 flights in front of me.... sianz.... went down to seletar and saw my friend aaron... ^_^ he told me i was flying with Teo AH.... can call her the "Queen of the Skies" as she's the most senior female pilot in yfc... hmmm... ya..she used to train SIA's pilots in aust. ^_^ so anyway... i check the board and its actually Mark Yeo!!! yipee!!!! i totally enjoy his lessons.... very nice and assuring, he's cool and approachable...

so i was asking him lots of questions b4 the flight.... he said good good ^_^ then at the aircraft i noticed the oleo (not oreo) extension (basically the suspension system of the aircraft) was a bit low... acutually very low... so i told my instructor.. he said it was ok but its good that i noticed... ^_^ but crap cause i haven't flown for 1 whole month... i kinda forgot how to start up.... since i had to time to do my own checks in the aircraft.... soo i was a bit kia.... i actually missed one check... got reminded of it.... did R/T (radio telephony) to seletar ground...actually i wanted to do to Tower but relax a bit mahZ haha...

why taxying... i actually saw AirAsia's 2 aircraft in Seletar Airport... (airasia is malaysia's new budget airline) we were chatting about it that it was very striking the colours... the other one was in the servicing area.... i saw it when i was on the van coming in... couldn't get a shot sorry since it would be illegal... today supposed to be a lot of aircraft flying but only happened to be 2.... instructor flying instructor and my aircraft... so we had the whole of Area Alpha to ourselves.... (Area Alpha covers a rectangular area from Bukit timah hill to Causeway to sonoko power station to seletar hills estate.... was flying at 3000ft...

overall i actually was very worried that i'll score very low since my tests on low power and low speed to fly straight and level was way..... off....... its either i could maintain 3000ft and over speed or that i maintain 75knts and descend... T_T

overall grading was 5 with 4s in low power and low speed... score is upon 7.. the landing was pretty ok.... very chopping winds.... so mark yeo couldn't perform his fantastic landing.... during debrief he said that i have a good attitude and that i'm doing well.... i was soooo touched.... left the office feeling very happy... then i saw airasia's aircraft take off.... woah seh.... thee engine damm power sia..... and it can take off on such a short runway.... well its 2km.... such a tiny commercial aircraft should be able to do that.....

haha also mark pulled off some tight turns today.... woah.... i think he pulled over 1.5Gs.... i think.... and since i was not fully alert.... due to my eye... my head was thrown backwards and i nearly passed out.... could feel my vision going out... then forced my head down to get blood back in.... phew... close call....

YFC finished i went to sim lim square to look at joysticks and get my CDs.... wah kaoz they dun sell the 100pcs @ $56 anymore.. they add a plastic holder together for $60... daylight robbery...

met chee han and xiu yun for a walk and talk on where to eat for dinner as the rest were coming at 6.30... thanks xiu yun for coming to our little gathering on top of ya busy schedule... so we decided on either sushi or fish n co... went to the mrt and only 1 out of 4 came.... ken... ^_^ so we 4 just moved around... went to park mall to eat noodle don or don noodle.... extortion manz... the unadon i had, erm... jap eel with rice cost $12 and it was like 3/4 a bowl of rice and 1/2 an eel...

shit manz... sucks..... dun eat there ppl..... waste of money.... and dun try their shakes or something.... they believe humans should drink more water....

we had a nice chat at istana park for about an hour and left for home... really enjoyed the tme spent... thanks a lot guys! and gal ^_^ i will remember this and not forget...

yup and xiu yun, pls dun litter.... esp not in front of me pls... ^_^ as a founding member of LASS. it is not in ya best interest to know what i intend to do to such people.... this time i shall pick up the litter for ya.... next time i might not... ^_^

what is LASS u say? well it certainly is not Lesbians and Sex Society thats for sure.... since it has the same pronounciation as the short for LES.... LASS stands for the "Legion of Anti-Singaporean Scum".... i will inform ya on a later date on what we are.... my eyes are starting to get dry... need to get some rest.. .tata
