D-Day has finally arrived. We use this term specifically on the day our charter flight departs. The handling for arrivals is always much more easier than departure flights. There were much more protocols you had to adhere to, like what can be loaded and what couldn’t, and how they were going to be loaded. Who […]
Sometimes, the downside of this job is, you are always feeling tired. Fatigue is our best friend and everyone of us tries to deal with it in the best way we can. Usually I take long hours of sleep to rid myself of it, but for some of my colleagues, they rely on alcohol. Thanks […]
After what I would like to call a 48 hours transit back in Malaysia, since I had just finished my previous business trip in Tokyo, I am on my way for my next flight to Brunei. Been 2 years since I last set foot on Bruneian soil (which was during my transit to Auckland). Purpose of traveling this time […]
Heading back home today for a 48 hours transit before my next flight out again for yet another charter flight handling. Had a very weird dream with my brother in it, asking me to collect and stack some 50 cents coins. Breakfast was simple, with just yoghurt and fruit juice since I was planning to […]
Note: Not many pictures because we aren’t allowed to disclose what happens during training. Technically I celebrated the 2nd anniversary of being on the job at my ex-boss’s house, because dinner stretched passed midnight. This morning I was sitting in my room in Kamata, while having breakfast and thinking how fast time passes. Breakfast was just […]
Boarded the flight after what seemed like a never-ending wait. The legendary notorious B787-8 was already waiting at the boarding gate for us passengers. Maybe because it was already 2am by then, I was so sleepy I fell asleep while the plane was taxiing out. Knew it took off, then woke up for the refreshment […]
This was my first time (and wouldn’t be the last) to hop over Singapore for a short transit before flying out to Japan again for work. Eventually I got the hang of it but let’s save that for later. I had to bring lots of things over to Japan this time round, so packed them […]
My second last day in Japan, and my last day in Kumamoto. I had intended to have breakfast at the hotel’s lobby before departing for the airport, but after downing the salad I bought from the supermarket yesterday, a cup of coffee and some juice, I felt too full to eat anything else. Ended up […]
One of the main reason why I visited to Kumamoto, was to strike Kumamoto Castle off my to-visit list. As the Japanese often said, the top three castles in Japan are Matsumoto Castle, Himeji Castle and lastly, Kumamoto castle. I’ve visited the first two during my month-long stay in Osaka under the Jenesys program, so this was the […]
The last and final part to our long long day, was to get to our hostel for the night. We made it back to the Takamori station, far before the cut-off time given to us by the grumpy station master, and he was part pleased that we came back, and also looked partly pissed that we actually […]
