I love my job

Hey, jangan ingat aku surirumah sepenuh masa! Di samping menjadi surirumah tangga (formal nye ayat aku), aku juga buat freelance design untuk company lama aku iaitu A To Z Language Centre. Promo jap: Sapa minat Jepun, bolehlah belajar bahasa Jepun kat language centre ni. Cikgu cikgi die memang best! Principal aka boss aku tu sangat baik orangnye, lemah lembut dan paling penting she is beautiful! Promo lagi: Nanti bulan December ATOZ ada menganjurkan Winter Course seminggu di Tokyo! Dalam masa seminggu tu korang akan belajar bahasa Jepun (ikut level masing-masing) dan juga ada banyak aktiviti yang dah disediakan untuk korang termasuklah pegi berlibur di Disneyland!! Tak ke masyukk tu? Tapi website tak kluar lagi pasal Winter Course ni, aku promo siap-siap.

Berbalik kepada tajuk di atas, Jumaat lepas aku attend meeting kat ATOZ. Staff meeting diorang buat every first Friday of the month la. Boss aku suruh aku datang setiap meeting supaya aku tau gak perkembangan office. Lepas meeting aku meet up dengan Japanese Teacher yang ajar Malay conversation ngan student Japanese. Terrer siot Mizuki san cakap Malay. Campur2 slang KL plak tu. Hehehe..Die ambik course pasal Malay Language masa kat universiti di Jepun dulu. Aku tolong die buat design untuk BM Lesson die. Sometimes she asked me lots bout Malay Language. So kitorang berborak dalam 3 bahasa, English, Japanese and Malay. Meletops!!

Anyway semua orang busy jadi taksempat and terlupa pulak nak ambil gambar dengan Mizuki san. Lainkali aku amik gambar.

Seperti biasa gambar outfit wajib ambil sebelum gerak ke office.

I'm wearing turqoise dress from Japan,

stripe cardigan and skinny jeans from Nichii,

black+turqoise heels from Vincci,

floral waist belt from A Model Xcess,

necklace from Diva,

unbranded bangles

I bought these super cool floral waist belts from online boutique A Model Xcess. Diorang ada boutique baju as well called A Model Studio. Kadang2 aku beli baju cantik-cantik with affordable price from this boutique. Check them out!

Goodbye ATOZ

It seems that it is confirmed that I will resign from ATOZ soon. Somewhere in February. My maid has made her decision not to renew her contract with me. It is sad coz I love working at ATOZ. No stress and the staff are like my family, they are friendly, always having fun and respect each other and the most important is my boss is the best boss in the world. I never met a boss like her. She is sweet, very kind, always think for her staff and very hard working. She is a Japanese. I told her that I would love to do design work for ATOZ as a freelance so that I can still work from home. She is really happy with that and will discuss with our accountant about it.

* Some of my design works..

Meanwhile i think that since I'll become a full time housewife, I will have some free time. Paused. I forgot to mention that Wandy and I have discussed and decided to hire a new maid to replace the current one. The reason is Wandy wants someone at home who can accompany me and Dacchi while he's away flying for few days. If he works like others, coming back at evening, then tak perlu maid pun tak apa coz he will always be at home at nite. Betul jugaklah cakap dia. If he is away for a week, it will be so lonely for me and Dacchi and it is very difficult for me to go out kalau ada apa-apa hal.

Ok back to the story, since we will hire a new maid, so most of kerja cleaning akan diambil alih oleh the maid. So I will be relax lah jugak and have a lot of time with Dacchi. Before this I always think that if one day I'll resign from my work, I wanna do something from home to get some pocket money. Tak mau duduk goyang kaki lah konon, coz I always think that I want to have my own money eventhough sikit, at least kalau shopping pakai duit sendiri takdelah orang nak bising. If hubby beri duit, mesti ada rasa risau dan serba salah kalau nak spend banyak. Right?

These are the things that I think I wanna do at home and get some extra cash:

1. Jahit manik baju kurung

2. Buat dan jual semi-precious stone necklace & bracelet

3. Open an online boutique

4. Pergi bridal make-up course and slowly make-up orang for dinner ke ape after that try make-up for weddings

But after banyak kali pikir, the first 3 things macam a little bit susah la.

1. Eventhough I have interest in jahitan manik, tapi this kerja very rumit (rutit kata orang sarawak) and use lots of small beads..susah sikit bila kita ada beranak kecil. Kalau buat for baju sendiri tu bolehla tapi kalau nak ambil upah buat baju orang, minta maaflah. Tak larat aku...

2. I have this idea of making semi-precious stone necklace & bracelet from my sisters. They bought these necklace from a friend who made them by herself. Really cantik and boleh buat untung coz it is expensive (Sorry tiada gambar hiasan). But, I try to find kat mana nak beli these batu kat KL, I couldn't find any. Entahlah kat mana diorang sorok this kind of shop. Memang ada jumpa few tapi usually they sell necklace yang dah siap not strands of different kinds of semi-precious stones. Boringlah beli yang dah siap sebab diorang buat tak cantik.

3. Sama juga I don't know where to start. Kat mana nak cari supplier? And also most of online boutiques jual baju yang sama. If I know how to sew baju, bolehlah nak buat my own design.. ehehe.. konon jadik fashion designer lah...=p

4. Now I've come to the last idea and I'm very very interested in this. Aku memang suka mekap. Mekap sendiri and mekap orang. And I have my own make-up kits lengkap dengan brush set from MAC. If I have time I'll post some of cara-cara nak make-up. Last time masa masih belum kahwin I was very active in one of the online beauty forum and I always post cara-cara nak mekap macam-macam jenis.

* My make-up kit (I love my brushes!)

So I was thinking I wanna enroll in bridal make-up course somewhere in January (for a month course or something) and then try to get customer yang nak make-up for dinner or any occasion lah. Start off with friends and family lah dulu... charge murah lah skit..hahaha..memang berangan besar.. but I know this will work coz I love to do it. But to make sure it will work, I have to be hardworking in enhancing my make-up skills.... so friends and family, kalau ada sesiapa nak pegi dinner ke occasion ke and looking for someone yang boleh make-up kan korang, please do call me!! (After aku dah amik course laaa.... lebih rasa confident skit, skarang pun boleh untuk simple-simple je la...hahaha) But I'm not thinking to be pro make-up artist yang pegi make-up for artis-artis...tapi memang boleh jadi kaya la kalau nak sampai macam tu. haha..

p/s entah apa aku merapu ni..

Can you smile fakely like us in the sky?

Hey..that's me...! With short hair! Huhu.. :P

I kind of went through my certificate file just now (to prepare for my final interview tomorrow..) and I found a piece of Star Recruitment page in it. I still kept the cabin crew advert with my photo in it...(yalaaahh of course you keep advert with your face on it laa) but it was year 2004.. when I once became the 'pasu bunga' or flower pot for AirAsia... but I think it's not really pasu bunga, maybe I was just the leaf only... coz my photo appeared only one time. Hahaha... kesiannye aku. Pasu bunga (that's what we called here in AA) meaning model of AirAsia and your ass face keep on appearing in any of AA advert.

* Still thinking when will be my face stick onto one of AA plane? Hahaha...maybe not in a million... (sounds jealous!)

Disrespectful

I had a bad day today with bad ass passengers...not really as bad as my other countless few flights.. Farking damn pax! Sometimes it makes you sick if you have a really really ass type of pax! I operated Chiangmai flight this morning, departure at 8.50 am. At 8.40 am almost all pax boarded the plane and we started to do headcount of the pax onboard but we were down by 7 pax. Ground staff came onboard and told me they still can't find the 7 pax, they were not in the boarding hall, so I paged their names through PA (in the plane) to make sure there are really not boarded yet and so that we can do our next procedure for missing pax which is to offload them! Meaning offload here is to left them behind (padan muka!) and to get their bulky checked-in baggage out of the cargo.

After I paged their names, one pax came forward and told us that the 7 missing pax were his friends. They supposed to go on tour together in Chiangmai so we asked him to call his friends. I informed Captain Puvan about that matter. It's already 8.45 am and another 5 minutes we need to close the plane door. Capt Puvan pissed off and came out from the cockpit. That guy told us his friends were still at the Immigration Counter. With a little bit anger, Capt Puvan said to that guy, "Mana kawan awak ni ha? Dah dekat nak depart belum lagi boarding. 90 passenger lain boleh masuk awal, kenape diorang tak boleh? Buang masa passenger lain nak kene tunggu kawan2 awak tu! " He was really pissed off.... I likeee.....hehehe...:P

That guy was a little bit shaking and quite scared. 2 minutes after that (it was already departure time) another ground staff came with the other 7 pax... The most annoying part was they were already too late to board the plane, and when they were boarding they even laughing and took their sweet ass time to walk into the cabin. They should at least say sorry to us and to other pax coz we have to wait for their ass to board.

If they were another more minutes late, I think Capt Puvan will offload them even with their 1 checked-in bag. Even if while the ramp staff find their bulky bag in the cargo, their already at the boarding hall, I think Capt Puvan will not agree to carry them because they didn't respect other people time. As a reminder, passenger who are going for INTERNATIONAL flights need to be at the boarding hall AT LEAST 45 mins before departure. You need at least 1 hour by the time you enter the Immigration counter (sometimes full of pax) and you need to go through the scanning bags area plus the new LAG procedure ( Liquid, Gas and Aerosol) - you are only allowed to carry LAG item in your hand carry bag as per the procedure :
- max 100ml per bottle limited to 1 liter per person (am I correct? heheh...)

Only for International flights...for the time being, I guess...p(^_^)q


P/s - How many times did I say ass?

I wanna fly...

Do you know how hard it is for a first timer to practice take off and landing using Flight Simulator (PC game) and PS2 aviation game in just a week? You tell me! I never try to play the Flight Simulator game on PC coz I'm not really a game person. Due to my second stage of Cadet Pilot Selection is around the corner so I have to practice and practice and practice...hehhee...yeahh practice makes perfect..

Actually pilot is not my childhood dream, I started to have the interest in flying whenever I became a cabin crew, to be exact after I became a Senior Flight Attendant aka Leading Stewardess laaa... coz when you become the leader then you become more close to the pilots and you will be in-charge of the cabin and passenger in the same time you have to report duty to Captain. As for example, everytime after the cabin is checked before take off or landing, you have to report to Captain that the cabin is ready.

And not forget to mention, since my husband started his flying school, he always told me everything about his flight and all the stuff about flying. In the same time, AirAsia allow lady pilot to join them, as you can see other airlines have no lady pilot. Maybe some airlines overseas allow lady to be their pilot. In the meantime AirAsia has more than 10 lady pilots including my husband's batchmates.

I hope that I can get thru the 2nd stage selection..please pray for me..
I still have no plan B if I can't get thru the cadet pilot selection, coz I've decided not to fly as cabin crew anymore, but I don't know wether I can work in the office? Maybe I'll think about getting a baby? Hehehe...next year maybe, not now.. I guess I'm not ready yet to be a mom! *wink*

But if I pass all stages, and get into flying school, I will not be allowed to get pregnant at least for 5 years..huh...

3 years?

Hola! Last two days ago I did my recurrent drill with all my batchmates at AirAsia Academy and at Pusat Akuatik Shah Alam. Door drill (brace & evacuation command), slide drill, fire drill and wet drill are all the training that we must undergo once every 3 years. And recurrent safety and first aid with exam are the training that we must undergo once a year. So it means that I've been with AirAsia for 3 years! 3 years! Quite a long time.. owh and that means that my 3 years training bond completed and now I'm a permanent worker in AA. *Jumping crazily*

I wanna share the experience of our training drills with you guys. Woke up early in the morning, I already felt like my throat in pain. Gosh..I knew that I will suffer sore throat by the end of the day, so I brought along my fisherman's friend (u know or not?) 6 cabin crew were all from my batch, another 2 from JB base and 1 from Kch. First thing we did was Airbus 320 door drill at Airbus mockup room. Which we need to do the normal operation of opening and closing, arming and disarming the door. (Yup maybe you think that this is very easy, but seriously there were several incident where crew opened the airbus door in armed mode, and the slide inflated!! Luckily there was no one outside, if not, that guy already flown away or hit by the slide! For those of you who did not understand, arming door means to make the evacuation slide pack attach to the door so in the event of emergency, the door will be opened with the slide. So means the door in armed mode. Disarm door means to open door in normal operation, without slide.

Try this, next time if you go for any flight, try to listen to the announcement made by the leading crew after all passenger boarded, and the crew need to close the door. Normally after the door closed, she/he will announce "Cabin crew, arm all doors and cross-check". So all crew must arm their door at that time.

Ok back to my drill, after we finished the door drill, we proceed to slide drill. I like this part! Hehehe...I mean, jumping part. We need to do 2 times slide drill which were for Airbus and 737 (different height when the slide attached to door) So hurry hurry jump! Jump!

After that we did the Fire Drill. I think you know about this. We were trained how to fight fire in the correct way and each one of us had to fight fire (real fire ok!) with the fire extinguisher. Then, we continued with our brace/evacuation command drills. These are the command for unprepared crashland :

Brace: Emergency, emergency, heads down, grab ankles, remain seated!
(Hey, u need to shout out loud u know!)
Evacuation: Release seatbelt, leave everything, shoes off, come this way, hurry hurry, standback, standback, hurry, jump! Hurry, jump!

This was when I got my sore throat..(until now)
Then, at 3pm we proceed with our wet drill at the Pusat Akuatik Shah Alam (coz our Academy doesn't have swimming pool yet, ermmm coming soon) This was to train us what and how we should do when the aircraft ditch into the sea. So sone with wet drill, we continued our door drill for 737 at LCC Terminal at 10pm (Coz our Academy doesn't have 737 mockup room, so we need the real aircraft to do door drill). We finished all drills at 12am.

The next day (rest day)...I got sick!! Owh before that, me and hubby went to MATTA Fair at PWTC, coz we want to look for Japan tour package for our HONEYMOON in April(ok, ok I knew that I've been married for 4 months already, but we haven't gone for our honeymoon yet, no time and no leave! Hehehe...kesian... At the MATTA Fair I felt so sick, got cough and flu from the sorry throat. I hate that, whenever you get sore throat, it will lead to flu, cough, kahak and fever. Damn it! But I need to company my hubby to settle with the tour package, gambatte Wedy-san!

We went back at 7pm and made a stop at Fuziah Clinic (Kota Warisan, my home area. At home, I felt very sick and tired..luckily I got 1 rest day + 2 days off.. so now I just rest and relax at home..

Ferry Flight

Yesterday was a very fun day. Supposed operate KUL-KCH-KUL but then Ops called inform changing sector to Surabaya (SUB). And my FO was Shara, lady pilot aka my husband's batchmate in MFA. When reached Ops they informed that this flight is QZ rescue flight, which means QZ (AirAsia Indonesia) aircraft grounded in KUL, so there was no plane to send pax to SUB. So we rescued them, sending them to SUB, and return flight was empty! No pax at all.. or we called it ferry flight. Coincidently another lady pilot, FO Fiza just came back from her morning flight, and she wanted to follow us to SUB (coz return flight is ferry flight), our Capt Hanshin agreed. So we have 2 FO's in our flight! Yay!

So the return flight, we just played around in the cabin...hehehee.... my 3 other crew also lepak-lepak and borak-borak. Me, Fiza and Shara crazily took photos...from cockpit to cabin! LOL!

Some other 'gila' photos are in Fiza's phone, will ask for it! Owh forgot to mention, we ordered Nasi Padang and Nasi Pecal from Surabaya too!

Delayed again!??!!

Urghh....I'm at the office rite now, my flight to Pnomh Penh supposed to depart at 1515 but just when I entered the office, my crew told me that our flight was retimed to 1720... erghhh!!!!! Tension! Flight operations shud call us earlier so that we can wait at home rather then waiting in the office for 2 hours? Damn it! I guess we just have to wait here or having sum lunch sumwhere....but where else? U think that LCCT is big as KLIA? Have lots of restaurants and fast food? Pliss... Either McD, Coffee Bean or Asian Kitchen? U choose..

Delayed..

My flight last nite was delayed again....I dont know whats happening these few days our flights always delayed. But 2 things about AirAsia, raining or technical prob = delayed. Last nite I operated KUL-Surabaya-KUL, first sector delayed due to heavily rain in Sepang. We have to wait for few minutes until the rain is cleared a bit to board the pax. Pity to pax they have to run to the aircraft with umbrellas..:P

In Surabaya, our aircraft had a small technical problem which caused around 15 mins for our engineer to fix it. So we've been transit in Surabaya for about an hour before taking off to Kuala Lumpur. Just about to land in KUL, Capt Sahari informed me that we had to continue sectors to Penang. Most of the evening flights were delayed and I heard pax were crazily mad and even bergaduh besar at the boarding hall with the ground staff. Pity them. But what can I say..?

So we landed back in KUL around 2.10 in the morning. Goshh..then I have to drive back to home, luckily my house is not that far, juz about 15 mins drive from LCCT.
