i was on standby for a day on 24 June 08, tuesday.. i guess its dear's birthday thus i was blessed with a little luck! winks~ i waited from 12am onwards. basically i didnt have a good rest. i called the hotline every 30mins just to ensure i won't be reporting to the gate straight particularly after i've heard chloe's story. finally... at 3pm, i received a new message. i was called up for 7 days seoul- Vancouver! oh my goodness.. the wait was really worthwhile. =) i was really lucky to be called up for this long flight. another blessing from the angels. hehe. the crew were all teasing me cos some of them flew for 5 years, and its their first rostered seoul-vancouver. and which means in a row i will be doing 3 long flights! i just did my 5 days amsterdam, now that i've done my 7days seoul-vancouver, next on my roster will be 6 days rome. suddenly.. i realize i'm beginning to love standbys! they give me pleasant surprises. =) i had a good 7 days with my lovely crew members. we worked 3 sectors, and pax back on the last. so it means holiday mood from the 3rd sector onwards~ the feeling is great ya... first stop in seoul, JP, dave, siwefang and me went shopping and sightseeing. we had some drinks at the hotel bar too.
first day in vancouver, 4 of us had plans for cycling at the beautiful stanley park. but sadly, we slept a bit late, even though the sky is still bright at 8pm, the bicycle rentals ended. we decided to take a stroll in stanley park instead. it is nice~ Canada is a very laid back, relaxing and comfortable place to live for the rest of ur life. it is soooo peaceful that even the ants struggling past the running tracks seem cute. haha....the 2nd day in Vancouver, we went sightseeing in whistler. the famous place for skiing. it is my virgin time seeing snow and mountains. the beautiful view took my breath away. oh my god oh my god. how can i not love my job ya....
after a day of sightseeing, JP and i decided to go for some crazy shopping! phew~ i spent a bomb again. but it is so hard to resist the 40% storewide sale in tommy hilfiger. =x
then back to seoul, i jus love korean food so much.... yummy.. anyway upon touch down, we changed and chiong to lottemart, the well known crew joint for supermarketting. i bought 14 masks from faceshop, it is dirt cheap can! hehe.. and i topped up my drystore. everything looks good... i almost cant walk back to the hotel. kekez.. then after loading the items into our rooms, we went for drinks. =) my beer belly is bulging out~ help!
