Asia Holiday - 11/04/11, 0951 hours AEST

I’m writing this from the air, Air Asia X flight from Coolangatta (Gold Coast) to Kuala Lumpur. I’ll admit, when the plane started speeding down the driveway, I was pretty scared. As some of you may know, I’ve had my doubts about this trip, and the rough takeoff was a little bit jarring. But almost immediately , we flew over the coast, and got an absolutely amazing view of the beach, and the beautiful sparkling blue ocean. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get a picture for you guys… They’re kinda really strict on the “no electronics during takeoff and landing” thing. Possibly because that could cause the plane to crash and burn, but eh.


One of the upsides of going to Asia on an Asian plane is that the flight attendants are all Asian. And I’m trying very hard not to come off racist here, but you all know I don’t mean it like that, right? However, Asians, especially flight attendants, always appear a lot nicer than their white counterparts. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had a whole bunch of really nice Australian flight attendants too, but for the most part, they just act like train drivers: just doing their job. Which isn’t really that problematic, but one of the flight attendants asked what I was doing, and when I said I was blogging, she said she’d check it out on the ground. Also, they have Asian accents. So. Freaking. Adorabubble. “Diid yuu pree ordahh food meestaah?” Okay, not quite that exaggerated, but still… :3

Speaking of food… I got me a nasi lemak (picture below). Nasi lemak is this malaysian meal, with rice, chicken curry, some other sweet and spicy curry stuffs, and salted peanuts and dried anchovies. One of the best, if not the best in-flight meal I’ve ever had. SO YUMMEH~!



Nasi Lemak. In a box.

 I’m already kinda homesick, missing all of you so much. I know some of you are going to be like “Dude,
it’s 9 days. Harden the fuck up! How are you going to survive when we all graduate and move away to the four corners of the world?”. But I DO miss you guys. And it’s hard to adjust to the fact that there is nobody a phone call or keystroke away anymore. It’s just me, myself and I.

Also, I feel SO missed, it’s insane. Friday was the last day of term, and the last day I saw anybody other than my family in person. It was one of the best afternoons EVER (aside from a short period of being completely and totally out of my comfort zone). I got to see almost everyone, and meet some new people, which was pretty cool. Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and even Monday morning were full of goodbye phone calls, texts, emails, facebook messages, even a card. You guys literally made my month :3

We're about to land now, so I shall update you guys more later.
Selamat siang anak~!
