So you wanna be a pilot?

Sometimes, i felt like time is slipping away thru my fingers like grains of sand. =(..so fast it's now the end of march, makes me want to yell, :" time!! wait for me!!".=O..

Thanks to all the peeps who kept on telling me that my blog is covering with dust, now i'm back!!.=P..well, nothing unusual happened so far..=S..oh ya, soon i'm going to post an entry to the airasia's " so you want to be a pilot?" blog competition..=D..and the fact is..i havent even start writing, lack of inspiration i guess, the life i'm having now is so routine and lack of..what do you call that..? oh ya, variety. but to proof that i'm really into it. i'm going start typing right this moment..=D..




here goes.. *this will not be the same copy as i will publish in airasia blog.XD*..

"So you want to be a pilot?", my answer to that would be Y-E-S!!, and "why do you want to become a pilot?". i guess this question had been passed on from one cadet interview to another, it's a typical question, and the answer to that would be quite typical as well, which is "becoming a pilot have been my life long dream since childhood" and such, but yet, the story behind that answer differs from one person to another, that's the interesting and unique part of it. of course, the same goes to me as well.

*thanks for viewing, and all of the below content are based on my memories and information provided by my family members..=D*


The earliest plane flight that i took is when i was around 5 years old (which i could remember of course..XD), it was a MAS boeing 747 which is scheduled to fly to sydney, that time, from what i was told by my parents, i'm very reluctant to get on the plane and i was actually grabbing a side walk handle in the aerobridge and wouldnt let go, cant imagine what kind of ruckus i had caused at that time..XD..i guess mainly it's because i dont feel secured going into to a big metal thing which sounds so "angry" (engine sounds)..in the end, my parents somewhat manage to carry me into the plane, just like a hand carry luggage.=S

On my way into the plane,i was still struggling to not get into the plane, this is when one of the airstewardess approaches me and gave me a plane model, from that moment, i started to behave myself, see how easily it is to calm down a kid?=D..*to be continue*


up till this point, you guys must be thinking :"what does all this have to do with you wanted to become a pilot?".. Well, just be patient and read it thru, at the end, you will all know.=D.


Haha..times up, gotta stop right here and pick this up next time.XD.

Mountain Nuang 3/4 Conquered Part 2

Time to continue part 2..=)..once we reached the second camping site..the trail only starts there..now the real test begins..we have to get thru the trail as fast as we can, cause time is running low, the plan is if we couldnt get to the peak before 3.30, we'll stop and start going back down..=(..

after another hour of climbing, we finally reach kem pacat..=D..and there's the bad news, the time we reached here was 3pm..it's impossible to get to the peak in under 30 mins, so the lecturers said that we'll rest here till 3.30, and start going down..sigh.=(..now do you understand the meaning of the title?=)..

Kem Pacat..=)
