Friendships are like Plants


 Finally! a long overdue reunion. Honestly speaking it's really hard to get everyone together. In this photo you have a chef, 3 flight attendants who predominantly flies international routes and you also have the Ministry of Defense. It's really hard to match each others timing, but we made it happen!

 

Thank you so much to the host for all the trouble you went thru preparing the food and making sure only the best made it to the table.  She learnt her cooking from a renowned culinary school in Singapore. Every now and then i see her attending those classes making delicious, mouth watering meal.. she post them on her FB wall.. for those who knows her can go stalk her page.. she is not available FYI.. she is already taken.. but the rest is single and available.. can place your bookings thru me.. haha

 We had steam boat and her ingredients were hand picked air flown all the way from Japan. That's why its really good to have friends with air crew. you can basically order them to buy things for you from any parts of the world. Just name it, household items, electronic, groceries.. the list goes on.
 I've known these bunch since i started flying with Singapore Airlines. They were my batch mates. it means that we all went thru basic training together. So for approximately 3 months we undergo classes which teaches us about how to walk the walk and talk the talk, company standard operating procedures and safety.

for those of you who still don't get it.. walk the walk means.. how to walk.. seriously! i am not joking.. u need to walk in a certain manner, no swaying your ass too much when you pulling your cabin bag around airport. hehehehe.. also how to walk like a crab when you go down or up the stairs.

talk the talk means how to talk professionally .. even though so much training was emphasize this happen.. Some aircraft in business class features a lie flat bed, we often walk around offering to make the bed for the passengers for a goodnight sleep.. after making the bed and tucking the passenger to bed for a good night's sleep a stewardess told the passenger to Rest In Peace! hahahaha.. the passenger went completely berserk 

Anyway, air crew stories are really fun.. so much stories that the saying goes "1001 nights story"


They will always to make you stay, i hardly stay up late nowadays. When the clock strikes 11 pm i normally prepare myself to bed. On certain occasion i do stay up late, but you know your body clocks will always ask you to go.

I did mention friends are like plants.. we need to water (spend time) them and fertilize (care) them to ensure a healthy and long prosperous growth.

I would like to dedicate this blog to you guys with love from me!
