Diary: UPdaTEs on mOi !!

Wassup friends! How's it going???
Sorry for the major delay on updating my blog and on Youtube as well.
If you have any interest at all in my personal life then you'd know that the last time i updated myself to you was when I'm busy in training with AirAsia.

Well 2 months has passed since then and im proud to say i passed the academy with flying colours and here i am, busy as ever!

its been about close to 3 months now that i've been flying 'solo' as a flight attendant and i must say, i am all drained out. 5 times a week, up to 6 flights a day. Can you imagine?

I feel the aging effect on myself and i aint lovin it. No No No....
Gone are the days when im able to stay awake till 4am and be asleep till noon. Now the latest for me to stay energetically awake is till 10pm. Anything more than that and im using all my might to keep my eye lids from falling.
Yes that's right...R.I.P to my social life.

But of course with every hard work, comes a price.
And that price, is on me ;)
I got half a taste of my full income last month and that has kept and will keep me smiling on every 26th day of the month. Heheheeeee~
Its my first four-figured earning in my life and Im proud of it.
And yes, with every price, goes my time for friends, family, partying, daily exercise and all the other routines i used to do before 4 months ago.

So...WORK.
Ahhhh...Like everything else in this world ( i suppose ), time is needed to get the use of it. I'm still fitting myself hard to fit in the triangle box of my working hours. But that however is something all flight attendants in the world will have to deal with i suppose.
And surprise surprise, just half an hour into my standby hours, Im being called up for another flight later at 4 (as we, well I speak...or type o_O)
Another hour to waste so lets continue ~ Then comes the inflight services and standard of procedures. Complicated at first but im slowly getting the hand of it, Thank God, but Im still learning.
Ps; got my hand burnt from heating the food in the oven on board :( (and i was wearing gloves, mind you)

All in all work is fun IF, and ONLY IF, my set of crew are the fun ones as well.
People comes in different shapes and sizes including personality. However in the kind of work we are doing, It is utterly important for our leading to be humble, nice, patient and FUN for a smooth day at work. After all, THAT is the quality of personality AirAsia is looking for during the interviews~

Oh well...what else is there to say?
Work aside, when it comes to my social life, dinners and movies are all what i managed to do for now as all my days off are on the weekdays and let me remind you...im mentally falling asleep after 10pm. sNorT~

Oh and on my health-story , I have replaced my daily outdoor walk in the little 'jungle' of Gasing Hill (Bukit Gasing) and nightly jog with the indoor atmosphere of the gym. Fitness First @ Empire, Subang mostly. Gotta buff up this flabs ya'll...although i know its gonna take years and years and years -_-.

Also, I have a new member to the family! Can someone say "meoowwww"! hahahah
yes, i've adopted a stray cat i found at the ever delicious Humble Chef about 2 months back and its the most adorable-easy to train feline ever. Dumbell is his name. < Don't ask >


Ok guys, GTG and get ready! Just found out that i need to be there at 3 instead of 4. an hour makes a lot of difference! CHOWWW~ 'tHat's LiFe...' ;)


ps; I'll leave you with more of my latest photo gallery~

Diary ; Catching up time ;)

Heyyyy peeps!
Im so so so sorry on my 'disappearance'. But here's a catching up session (excuses as my defense) --->

No fancy shmancy story to update ya'll about, but on the other hand, I have joined the AirAsia Allstars family. Flight Attendant trainee Batch 117..the coolest batch on the academy! woohooo ;p


(my batch-mate Suresh, remy and ME )


Its my 4th week of training now and we (i, representing my batch of course) have about another 3 more weeks to go.

Grooming-Service Excellence-Announcement-Aviation-Inflight-(and as now,)First Aid.
These are the subjects of training i've been through and i have a few more to go.

My dear readers, let me tell you one thing: NEVER UNDERESTIMATE flight attendants!
Only once you join in the training process will you appreciate and understand the airline industry and how difficult it is to be a flight attendant..or as the general public consider us to be, 'waiters and waitresses of the airplane'.

There is more to it then just serving meals and selling items on board. 'We' are in-charge and responsible first and far-most, the passenger's SAFETY.
To be able, or properly saying, QUALIFIED to be the 'on air LIFEGUARD', we must first go through an intense/tiring training of first aid and safety-security class.

As of the date this blog is written, I am now in my 3rd day of first aid training and let me tell you this...IT AINT EASY!

So yes, a few months back my bed time was when the sun rises but now my sleeping schedule has turned outside down and i now rise along with the morning sun.

SO my dear readers, please forgive me for keeping it hush hush lately for i have been pretty busy (getting prettier while being busy! heheheehehehhe) and i PROMISE you this > I will post up anything worth blogging about once i have the materials aites!

As for now, keep following me and have patience. I'll BE BACK.
xoxo

New Baby

Thats rite!
I have a new addition to my techno family member.
Say "hello" to me new DSLR Camera...Canon EOS 550D!

Thanks to a friend of mine, he has decided to get this as my pre-Brithday gift for the reason its gonna be useful for my Bali trip this coming 28th (November) :D
But ofcourse its gonna take months of practice before i can claim myself being an expert user.
There's more than just lighting and position when it comes to snapping photographs....and that includes understanding every feature on the camera. Lots and lots of it.

So to all my friends who already own one of these and are good at it, im calling out on you guys to teach me how to master the click ;)

Once i have good pictures to share, i'll posted it up right away aites!

Love sick...or Sick of love?

(sorry that all i ever talk about is LOVE. But thats what been playing a HUGE role in everyone's life)

Here i am sitting in my room, listening to songs i used to listen 4 years back.
I remember myself well...obese, naive, playful, in love but oh so clueless.
Yes, clueless of what the future has to offer me....a whole lotta BULLSHIT!

So my story dates back in high school. I had a crush, or can i say crushes, none of it worked out. This was most likely due to my two enemies...One called Tripple chin, the other simply Mr Tummy. Yes yes, i did mentioned i was obese!

Back then, i thought BEING in love is exactly like how we see it in the movies. A picture perfect vision.
So i was trying hard to be in love. I've already fallen in love too many times, but i never manage to successfully had an official partner. Meanwhile, everyone else around me was going through their high school love story..or as what we would call it, 'puppy love' moments.
Deep down i was envious, jealous and upset with those lovebirds but yet inside, im just waiting or MY moments.

(4 years later, now i know that those moments was only for me to witness through someone else).

My biggest crush was a certain someone in my class. ~Kind, gentle, smart, and honest~These were the qualities i was attracted to. Physically, there was nothing great to even look at.
'The heart was what matters'.
But a year passed and before we knew it, school was over and college parted us both. But we still kept in contact although now we're basically in strangersville.
But we never had those intimate moments, nor did we had a mutual interest. It was ALL me.

College gave me the idea that i might have a new start...or a beginning at all, to be exact!
But tsk tsk Atif, how wrong were you.
I went through the repeated dance of my failing love story.
But thats ok! Love is beautiful, pure, honest and graceful. And somewhere out there, i'll find THE ONE :)
LOL!!!!!

I kept my head held high~
I kept my hope strong at heart~
I held my faith strongly in love's hand~
I stayed on the look out for my 'Moment'.

It never came.....

2 years back, i had my first official love. Oh i was on cloud 9!
Happy as could be, i was relieved and impress at myself that i finally had someone to call my OWN!
YAY.
Shortly after, REALITY hit me in the face!
And things ended only after 2 months.
I went throught the same progress repeatedly for the next 2 years with many many (practically countless) others.
Untill now, finally, i've open my eyes and bare witness on how the world actually works.

Love isn't a fairytale nor is LIFE.
Well, not mine atleast.

These days, "I Love You"s no longer sweep me off my feet.
It no longer thrills me of the fact that love has 'found' me. And i dont believe in it either. unfortunately, Cupid has lost its power on me and all arrows are now broken.

Some might say im just 'frightened' of love, others may say im just heartless. Which is it?
maybe its a little bit of both. Besides, why do we always need to choose between one another?

Love has lost its quality to me. And maybe i spoke to soon. Maybe my time has yet to come..after all, im only 21.
But for the moment, i'll stick to what i know and learned from that funny cruel four letter word....

L.O.V.E

Yours truly,
Bitterheart.

Bali oh Bali....

Wazzup guys!
time for some personal wrap on my Bali trip last weekend.

oh man,.....it was a really great holiday. Loads of fun with little of sleep.
my poor eyes.

Anyway, our adventure began on the th of August 2010. The 7 of us (me, my brother, 2 of my cousins and 3 of my friends) took the 9am Flight out of KL on Airasia. I only managed to get an hour of sleep the night before due to 'excitmentness' :p

So already i've lost 7 hours of my sleep and the 3 hour flight didn't help either. But thats just because i guess im not really a 'flying sleeper'.
We arrived in Bali around 1pm and left for our hotel in Denpasar called...(are you ready?...)....Hotel Taman Suci on Jalan Imam!!!
holy moly. ;D


So it wasn't one of our planned hotel to stay in during the trip. This was due to the failed bookings on another hotel we planned on staying in instead.

Our first 3 hours on the island already proved to promise us a very crazy holiday. Booze was our first local friend and sober was unheard of.

We then travelled to Kuta to have a taste of the local scenes. We even lost our way and walked an hour around town only to find ourselves back on the same street. we had a really good laugh there.
By the time we were back to our hotel, i was sloshed and went to zzz at 1am.

On the second day we moved to Bakongsari Hotel.
Our personal favourite :)


We ddint waste much time in our rooms and quickly made our way to the amazing beach!
wow wow wow.
The sand, the sea, the waves, and my oh my the eye candies!!!
it was beautiful in every way possible. hehehe. beautiful~
I think the only thing that spoiled the environment there was us. lol
some of us had a dip in the sea, some of us decided to get a temporary tattoo. Me, well im just there to get burned and stare at all the passing 'goodies' and just...drool.
Surfing and kite flying are 2 of the main activities there.

i felt like i was watching a coca-cola Ad here. ;p

Throughout our 4 days visit, we managed to do some interesting activities on the island.
River rafting was one of them!
woohoo......now THAT was a lotta fun!
the 2 hour rollercoaster ride got us all wet and thrilled out of our heads.

I didnt manage to take a lot of photos on my Blackberry. It was simply too expensive for me to make calls or even use my bb internet service there. So im sorry for that.

After the rafting trip, we were brought to a beautiful temple situated on a cliff overlooking the breathtaking ocean, giving us the most spectacular view i've seen!
it was just...WOW!!!

(i took this picture personally..heheehh)

And there, we witness the kecak fire dance which tells the story of a princess, giants, white monkey and a sneaky king who wants to kidnap the princess.
The dance was so mesmerizing till we forgotten to look at the sunset as well and when we realize it, its already dark.


We had dinner on the beach after...all good :)

That night, i managed to experiance the local night life....we went to 4 clubs. One of them > Facebar. no..not facebook..facebar.
And unlike Malaysia, here, they have after party clubs. So at 4am, we left to a club called 66. Whats unique here?...BUNGEE JUMPING!
All 6 of us took the leap of trust. All except me that is. After a really painfull and terrifying experiance on a bungee ball, i was just not willing to take the risk on bungee jumping that night.

The first 2 days in Bali was a slow one..but the next 2 days just flew by us with the speed of a falcon!
On our last night there, 3 of us (me, my brother and a friend) went on to party up and get trashed in Facebar again. Here, i was extra friendly and made lots and LOTS of friends! hahahaa....i miss them already :(
For our after party, we headed to a club jus 10 minuets away from our Hotel...DEE JAY CLUB! One of the best clubs i've been to!!!!!!
The music was FANTASTIC, the lights was sparkling brilliant and the podium was a concert-standard stage!
we partied on till 8am and woke up later at 10am to get our stuff packed.


The 4 days was an unforgetable adventure and we cant wait to be back on Bali and meet our local 'friends' there again and go for a bike ride around the crazy streets of Kuta.
Till then, looks like i just gotta get used to being back home again. :(





Thanks Bali for the tiring, painful, thrilling yet FUN experiance.
xoxo
