Flight to Singapore:
So here I am, cruising at 30,000 feet (or so the captain would have me believe). The plane is trembling a bit from some slight turbulence, and I can't help but have images of flaming wreckage hurtling to the sea below.
Are we even over sea? *Looks out window*
We're higher than the clouds, and it's quite peaceful. That is, if you can block out the constant drone of the engines.
How do I feel? Well, DUH... I miss everyone terribly. I'm a little surprised I didn't bawl at the airport, but I think all the reassurance from everyone that it's only a year away, and really only 3 months before I'm home again had a hand in that. I think sitting on the plane in the 15 minutes before take-off was the hardest. Now begins the countdown to going home.
Ooh, FOOD! Lunch is being served. I just realized how hungry being depressed makes me. This is why sad people get fat.
Damn comfort food...
Flight to Manchester:
It's so quiet on the plane. Been dark ever since we took off. Watched Forrest Gump for the second time... cried both times too. Such a good movie.
And there she goes again. The little toddler has been crying continually through the flight. I wonder what she's wailing about... I wonder if anyone else is as annoyed as I am.
Ah, breakfast. Omelette du fromage with sausage and roasted vegetables. C'est magnifique, non?
So here I am in Manchester. Weather's good if a tiny bit chilly at times, though I'm told this is an unusually warm day... o_O" It's cold enough that there isn't any need for air-conditioning, even with the windows closed... although I wonder what it's like in summer. Would probably sweat like a pig in a sauna.
Got here at about 6.30am and was showered and all unpacked 3 hours later. The Internet connection is bloody unbelievable and is totally wicked.
Tomorrow's another new day. I might go plum-picking in the backyard, and later help my uncle set up his new HDTV. Will keep you all posted on what I get up to. Just so you know, I'm leaving the time stamps on my posts on Brunei time.
Miss you all terribly. Keep me in your prayers as I keep you in mine.
P.S. I heard the clip-clop of hooves and looked out the window and saw horses!! I am so sakai.

Welcome to the West, my friend. [Would've loved to say that out aloud, in a true Tubbish (Mancunian) accent, but this'll hafta do].
Try not to miss Brunei too much while you're here. Be sure to try out authentic fish & chips (the best I've had was in London at North Sea, so do pay it a visit when you're there) and of course jacket potato and baked beans...
And why not cross the Atlantic to pay me a visit when you're so close?
Best wishes.
[josh] Haha I would laughat e-speeders, but I'm still technically one when I go home, so I'll just wallow in Telbru anger instead.
