Monday!
before taking off the chief stewedess person came over and shook everyone's hand. he introduced himself of course... i can't remmeber his name though... it sort of slipped my mind after he went to the next chair and I opened the krisworld-movie guide. not my fault. also exceedingly weird that all the stewedess call me miss-cheung... damn strange... like hellooo is name memorising service included in the extra money? It supposed make you more comfortable... only made me more weirded-out larh.

take it from me... when sleeping fly business, when eating slip over to economy class and disguise yourself as one of them so you can get their food. the business class food is like damn rich and esp. weird when eating on an airplane. for lunch and dinner you get seperate courses appetizer, main course and desert.

lunch
appetizer: duck liver pate with salad [Quality: F]
supposed to be a delicacy but it was too delicate for me so i gave the whole chunk over to my mum. tried the salad - bad move 'cos it was parsleyfied and saucified - managed to swallow small leaf. ended up moving almost all to my mum's plate also. attendant came over and took my empty plate away. she asked if the appetiver was nice. resisted stepping on her foot. told a small white lie. resisted tripping her up again as she walked up and down the aisle. nice stewerdess man gave me a breadroll but the butter was on the taken-away tray... why??!! stole mum's butter.

main: tomato sauce linguini with some kind of fish [so i have a bad memory alrite!]
the highlight of my meal... v. v. v. v. nice... one of the perks of flying business class *pauses to rub it in* yes business class :) slightly better than an economy class meal... but not enough to upset the horrible appetizer...

desert: some kind of cake or rum and raisin icecream + coffee + chocolates
i choose the cake which turned out to be really really rich and creamy and stuff... ended up with no room to eat chocolates when the stewedess offered me some *sigh* i think she was quite shocked becos i looked like the only teenager on board in business class and i REFUSED THE CHOCOLATE??... arh well... she offered it again at dinner so... coffee was ok. the stewedess actually poured the milk for me from this nice tin kettle thing??!! not like lousi dairy creamer thing... maybe the reason i slept 1 hour only... nahhh...

watched sharktale and mystic river in this time. love the krisworld selection man. checked out the games section... a record 6+ pokemon games??!! AFGRAFRGFAGR... was halfway through legend of Zelda when it was dinner time.

dinner
appetizer: raw salmon and salad
lets see. i dunt like sashimi and the salad was the same one as before. enough said.

main: some kind of chicken
i have decided to boycott the one-star chef that cooks for the airline. the menu highlighted the dish and said what -specially prepared by what-is-name- well... the same chef made my mum's steak at lunch whihc was tough... and now my chicken is tough... greattt... tough chicken. ate more bread... saved the butter from the tray first -learn by experience. realised that paying more also meant more cutlery... aside from the basic fork-spoon-knife in economy, now everything is doubled! i.e. salad and butter stuff... no, you stilldon't get to keep it. ooh you also get salt and pepper in small little high-class bottles and an actual PLATE??!! AND TRAY??!! WAHHH... not like the tv-dinner alumuninm holder for economy.

desert: pandan pudding or cake and coffee and chocolate
had another cup of coffee... bad move? nahhhh... finally took some chocolate... quiteyummy! note for sam: you should try business class, they offer you one whole tray of chocolates! rows and rows and rows hehehe endnote. forgoed the others... the choices were a tad weird.

watched i,robot and collateral until 4am...

oh man the airline chair is damn cool... thers like maximum leg room and the sides of the chair are wide enough that you can acutally not feel compressed in a sandwhich maker... then there are these six buttons that you can adjust likew evysingle thing about the chair leg and back and seat and angle and stuff../. the best part is it can become completely 180degress flatflat when you want to sleep. the problem is the chair is so smooth and i had socks on so i kept sliding off the chair and halfway under the person in front of me' s chair!!! THEN THERE are TWO breaksin the chair so its quite impossible to sleep properly... this is probably the reason why i only slept 1 hr... dunt be foooollledddd.... the 180defress flat surface is not all dat great really....

breakfast: instant noodles
don't get me wrong, they have GREAT instant noodles!! v..v.v.v..v.v.v..vv nice again, like more real and more fresh than ANYTHING ELSE that i ate that whole trip: frequentfliertip: eat instant noodles. yumymumyumymumyum. also asked for milo this time... don't want to get addicted to coffee ;)

-more later.
