Back in sunny Singapore!

This morning, (or was it yesterday? I don't know. I'm pretty confused with the whole timeline nonsense) we left Foyer Beausejour for good. Oh how I will miss the place. My home for 26 days. I will miss the neverending lunches and dinners. Tortilla Boy, Matador, Perut, Jack(not really), Ricardo, HotRedJacket... I will miss saying Salut/bonjour/ciao to everyone and anyone on the streets, everyone's just smiling.

I mean, if you were to do it here in Singapore, everyone will think you're some kind of poser.

Blearghh.



So we left Fribourg for Zurich Flughafen. I swear Zurich has the worst system ever. We took 40 freaking minutes to check in! What nonsense is that!





Emirates has this weird-ass system of being so anal about punctuality of the passengers and THEY themselves cause delays. We are all there on time, 40 mins before departure.. and 20 mins after the scheduled departure time, we are still taxi-ing around.




I want to emphasize again that Emirates is STILL the best airline everrrrrrrr, even though they cause unnecessary delays. The cabin lighting so totally rocks!



Their inflight meals are uncomparable. Once just now the stewardess asked "Coffee, tea or ice cream?" I almost grabbed her by her neck to shake her and scream "WHAT KIND OF QUESTION IS THAT?!?!" Obviously ICE CREAM!!!!!!! Ice cream on the plane ballssssss!



Plus on Zurich-Dubai, we got their new airbus, with the new entertainment system, ICE, which ROCKS.



600 over channels of movies, tv shows, disney cartoons, old shows, music soundtracks and albums, all totally scannable. So you can watch what you want, when you want.



I took the liberty of watching Aquamarine (annoying chickflick), Pocahontas!!, Little Mermaid, Friends and my ultimate favourite Pretty Woman! When it got to the sweet ending, they had to collect the freaking headphones! Do you know how PISSED I WAS!!?!?! ARGHHHH. Dah takleh berfeeling feeling.



The rest of the time I was listening to Franz Ferdinand's album and other assorted albums, including Westlife's. Haha shut up okay. Don't deny it. At one point of time everyone DID like westlife.



Zurich-Dubai was the best 6 hr flight I ever had. I was always occupied and..yeah it was great. Except we didnt have that much legroom.

We got to Dubai at 2 mins past midnight and I went to solat what I needed to solat at the mosque in the airport. Comfy. I like. We sat around and boarded our homebound flight at 2-ish am, but only took off at what 330am?

I pretty much slept through the Dubai-Sing flight, woken by turbulence. We had some MEAN turbulence there. And I went to the Belt, greeted by my parents and Babs and Hirmyyyyy! hahaha. I swear Hirman must have thought I was nuts because my jaw literally dropped when I saw him there. hahah. Too bad you're a guy hirman, if not I would have pelukked you too.

Haha. Okay lets not go there.

Anyway, I went to fetch my sister at her school just now and while I waited at the foyer for her, she came up from my left and shrieked "KAKAKKKKKK!!!!!!" and I went "AHHHHHHH!!!" and we hugged, di hadapan khalayak ramai. I'm sure they thought we were mad. haha!

So anyway I do miss Switzerland already, but I'm happy to be back here, nonetheless. No place like home yup. :)
