A thousand thanks to Zhou Rui Hong for calling at 5pm, waking me up. Sounds strange? Well, I was alseep at home, and there was choir at 5.30pm. Being late = $2 fine. And I've been late a lot of times already. Think of what I could buy with all that money. A ton of arcade games, or one hour/++ of pool, or a MacDonald's meal + dessert... Anyway, after I hung up, I
chiong to school like nothing else. Ran ran ran... And then guess what?
Choir room out of bounds. Everybody sitting outside waiting.
I had ran for nothing.And I was wearing a long-sleeved shirt! I was preparing to sit in the freezing air-con room. Instead, I was stuck outside with everybody else, sitting next to Zhou Rui Hong's post-PE stink. (Heheh.) So I changed places. Sat next to Justin T. But he was busy talking about the Oscars with Weslie. And I didn't watch it. (I fell asleep last night at 9.30pm, can you believe it? But I viewed the Oscar stuff online just now.) So I sat next to Geraldine. We talked about our primary school. We were from the same primary school, so coincidental right? If you're from Tampines North Primary School and reading this, tag!
Going backwards a little, my oversleeping was unusual of me. I'm usually a light sleeper, and I usually remember to set the alarm. But this time I was so tired until everything went off. Well, I'm lucky. I made it on time.
There is a God.Anyway, guess what we did for PE yesterday? Spring-cleaning of the PE storeroom! Yes, since secondary school until now, students = free labour! So much dust in the storeroom... I was holding my breath until I nearly went blue. But it was quite fun actually. When Leyi and I were pushing the carts, I said that it felt like being an air-stewardess.
Me: "Fish or chicken? Coffee or tea?"
Leyi: "Would you want to be an air-stewardess next time?"
Yeah, actually I have thought of it. From this magazine that I read a few days ago, it says that an air-stewardess earns about $3500 a month. And has about 15 days off a month. Hey, that's good man! Moreover, when she's staying overseas for a few days, she gets extra allowance! That, plus free air tickets. And I love travelling. Getting paid to travel would be a dream.
"Paris, First Class, International."
Here I come. Haha.
Of course I know that there's more to it than the glamour. Let's talk about the requirements first. Minimum A Level certificate. (I could do that. Just stick it out until the end of the year.) Height at least 1.58m. (1.67m! Heeheehee.) Needs to pass training and exam and
swim test. Uh-oh. I only got a beginner's cert, Level 3. Can or not ar? But don't the stewardesses wear life-jackets?
Did you know? For the longest time, I have thought of being an air-stewardess for just once in my life. Most likely not long-term, because I plan to settle down early. But as for that, it's not going to happen just because I want it to. Things like that are quite hard to determine.
Well, que Sara Sara, whatever will be, will be.
P.S. Oh my gosh, I sure hop from topic from topic very quickly...
