a day in MFA

a day full of memories..

early start, make some feel very sleepy :P

1st stop was, MMU, melaka.

never crossed my mind that i will b there yesterday.remenise back, on how i used to

walk around that corridoor, having lunch at din's, supper at the bus stop, and well, ixora, where i used to live. also stop to meet some old classmate like charles and joyce.tough charles still look the same, joyce look sickly skinny.if u are reading this, thanks for taking come time out from ur class ya? as i left Melaka campus, a single engine piper plane flew across the sky.. mark the reason why i am here.

2nd stop was one of the few places that i like bout Melaka, the jonker walk

probably because of this place, jonker88.why? because they serve some good food and

a great blend of oldies music and yet relaxing.

and what is good food, and good atmosphere without some company right?

3rd stop was the MFA (malaysia flying academy)

due to come typical of Malaysia timing, the bus was delay and we are late for our appointment,

and as expected, we got screwed by the principal ltn(ret) franky.sad to say,

well, what the principal said bout is really true. if i would blog, bout the diff between the

student there and in MMu, well surely would make a lot of enemy.thus i would keep it to myself,

but those who are there, surely would noticed, the great different and standards.

after being brief bout MFA, we taken for a tour around the place by the student there. places

like the simulator room, library, classroom, and the planning room and most importantly the hanger. one of them student asked "sim? wat is the sim room" *smack my head*





a view inside the cockpit

this is call the "chalk" and one of FOM, FE,final year student can actually asked

"sir, what is a chalk?" *smack my head*

it don't really take a genius when the old man say " the time start when the chalk is off and stop when the chalk is on" the time here refer to the flying hours that a cadet have to gain.

is this the flight that is waiting for me to take off?

and the dream continues..

hopefully,everything goes to plan tomorrow. and I am set, to step foot to MFA, Malaysia Flying Academy, tomorrow. this semester is a bit tought, especially subjects like microelectronics, small signal diagram... sigh.. and also control theory, with laplace transformation, and machine transformation. with that all aside, it still at the back of my head, bout what the .... am doin here in MMU, with my vision is not as sharp as before, no more 5/5 anymore, the dream of flying seems fading.


as some that been to my room might notice my small collection of plane, well, am very glad to add to the collection.. with..




a Qatar Airways a340-600, its one of the biggest model of the a340 family. the model that i have is to the scale of 1/500.

wing is a symbol to fly, it also a way to say, FREEDOM

the sleek aerodynamic design, always a marvel probably for anyone, don't it blow ur mind how us human can lift this mamoth to the sky? and its all up to the well trained pilot to bring this baby up up and away...

the world, that i am always curious on how it looks like, different culture, different place, different people, all seperate by 3 degrees of seperation.i hope, i wish, and i pray for one day, that i could travel the world, flying, and in the end would still call this place home.

on friday night i went home. after the b'day celebration at Sk, well Happy bday to Yee kean and eric, who is now officially 21, guess its time for u to cash in the casino chip eric? anyways, i return home due to family reasons, so apologies because i miss out on the Ampang lookout point outing. seeing the situation not that serious as i first tought, i went to bangsar, to meet up with my frens. well some that i never seen since school end. well its nice that i received such a warm welcome, its Shai's 21'st. well Shai is the head boy during my year, if i would put it nicely, he is the more of the people's head boy, or in other word, he is corrupted as shit :P no offense mate. meet Vishnu too,cant forget all the shit we do. at first it does feel really akward as for years did not meet them, but as time goes on, its is alright, ray is also there, Dharmik, Dena and all.

its nice to keep in touch again with everyone. its great to see them, and all of them for sure will miss out time in our lovely high school. although there are some people that is from HELP,too bad we don't really mingle around. oh well, happy b'day mate, and have fun with Dharmik in Melbourne.

the gift

my cousin from SINGAPORE bought me this for christmas,

SINGAPORE-BREAD... see the connection?

return to the macha's and bro's

during the semester break, met up with dharmik, hema, jess and ray. yes ray, finally he decided to stop excluding himself in the cyber cafe with counter strike. it started when i have an online convo with ray, so he decided he wanted to join in the crowd again. knowing hema will be back in perth soon, so decided to call dharmik and ray along, as well... all of us have a common topic, mayb those who know us, they will know.

nevetheless, after hitting the fav past time of banana leaf rice, we continue to catch up with one another. it certainly amaze hema, she was like " am so proud of u boys, after so long being apart still can talk a lot and now talk to more grown up topic like the economics, and stock exchange, instead of discussing pranks" well, i have to agree to that, i guess once u clicked with someone, regardless how long u been apart, when u meet, its like a chatterbox.

tonight, hopefully things goes well, i hope to see ray and dharmik again, with the most of the bandaraya gang, except hema and gurdip who flew off to Perth, earlier this month. this time it will be at shai's b'day mayb just mayb cum engangement party.

time for me to return to the "hood" with the machas and bros. don't ask me why, but am just happy to return always. because i am comfortable there, being outspoken, not being judged or attemped to be provoked, or just a pathetic way to make u feel 'bad', and don't really have to be bother of 'offendin' others, as we quickly forget 5 minutes later, what that could be offensive.

really looking forward for some good time with some good company tonight.

valentine vs chap go meh

chap goh meh, marks the 15th, and the last day of the chinese new year, or its niu year. people throw oranges into the river in hope to find their partner. and a week later, (this weekend) its valentine, its when those who have a partner to supposedly show their affection to each other. lots of shop as u walk down the mall in red with roses, or pink, the obvious kim brickman's 'my valentine' is playing at those shop that sell the "couple magnet" which i seriously don't get it, no offence those who buy it. there goes on a list of thing that i don't understand like today's so called fashion like a 'vest' .

valentine is also a time for restaurant to offer their 'valentine set' and jack up the price. and u can see people trying to make a profit from selling roses, 1 roses can cost up to 8 bux each? yes it is good for the bad economy, as to push the inflation rate, but seriously, have valentine been SO commercialize ? togather with christmas? the side effect of globalization i tell u!

sometimes we are too caught up in the occasion, we neglect and forget what the true meaning behind it, as its a such a subjective thing, as am sure everyone have their own opinion on things. but generally, i think valentine is a way to rekindle, or to light up the spark in the relationship. as most of us are busy, with out daily life, sometimes we go to throght the same routine all the time, yes it does tend to be boring, so let a special day, to add that 'spice' or ' excitement' in the relationship.

thinking of my first valentine card in high school, was an card from THE girl in primary school. everyone was crazy for her in primary, as we leave and go into high school we went seperate ways, but for me, i still keep in contact with her. so during one fine valentine she sent a card, saying " i love u........................." that did bring a big smile but the end of it ".............. as a friend"

ke-kanasai-an yang teramat sangat.oh well, things happen i suppose. happy valentine for those who gonna celebrate, hope that you all have a good time in the name of romance :P and for those single one out there, well, don't let the occasion let u down, there always friends to hang with as valentine is not restricted to boy/girl thing, it could also be viewed as a friendship thing, plus there are still lots of fishes out there.

p/s: applicable for guys and girls
