testify to love

i'm so happy to see daddy..

my lips are chapped and they kinda hurt. but it's ok. vaseline can do wonders. anyway. seriously.. my plane landed at 12am and they had to put us at the gate at the extreme end of the airport and i had to brisk walk about 20minutes to the luggage belt. when i reached there i was like perspiring... 

anyway jetairfly is a weird airline.. the woman sitting in front of me brought her pet dog onto the plane. and i'm sure halfway through the flight i could smell cigarette smoke. anything other than water costs us extra money. and the air stewardess smell like they're wearing men's cologne. they squeezed everyone into a few seats and left half the plane empty(i moved and i got 3 seats to myself!).. 

thanks caroline for going out of the way to send me to airport. anyway, toulon/hyeres airport is really strange. it used to be some air force place but they converted it to a public airport. when i checked in and went through the gates, the arrows led me to the open air area beside the runway.. and there were like a few small jetairfly planes around. which one to go to?? they looked the same and all had passengers on them. anyway, i just ramdomly chose the correct one. it must have been something the woman said in french that i didn't understand. 

my last day in hyeres was eventful. the girls, sl, brett, mark and kelvin left at mid-day. so i was the only laser left.. plus 470s and andrea(luckily.. at least i've got company!) went for a run after packing boats on trailer and packing my luggage. after run, andrea roy and i went for lunch. from 1.30.. we sat at Tocco till 6.30pm! a good 5 hours. after that we went to cook all the food that we had left and threw a birthday party for zhen(who got thrown into the cold cold sea today)(which reminds me rence was being attacked by craig who smeared "dog shit" on his face but it was really just vegemite actually..) ok anyway, lunch was lovely because we finally had some wonderful weather today.. and i finally had a crepe royale and salade nicoise which was yummy. 

what i learnt is that;

being constantly happy and upbeat does not make you an optimist.

(being emotional or unhappy does not make you a pessimist)

an optimist is positive about a better future.

and i am positive that if i don't sleep now.. we won't set off till after mid day tmr. 3am!
