Well, t’is the first day of July, which means that we are half-way through the year! =D Wheee! Happiness! =D Although in financial terms, this is the New Financial Year, which also means, that the government takes some money off you as well! Yay! Then they’re gonna spend it on something that the majority of people don’t like, then they wished they had voted for the other guy and not realise that if they had voted for the other guy, they probably would have thought that the other guy sucks and that they should have voted for the current guy or whatever but that’s beside the point I guess…
Well, this being the first of July also means that this is my last week of Term 2 at my school. More =Ds! =D Our geography teacher seems to have run out of geography work or something for us and so he’s starting to teach us about some psychology stuffs which is supposed to help us learn our learning potential. Well, personally, I find these lessons to be quite fun and everything makes sense. Although then you learn that the truth hurts and that the bestest dreams you have never last and that you eventually won’t remember a single thing about that dream… But this whole dream thing is one of those mind-exploding things so I’m not going to get into much detail about that right now, maybe sometime later on in this blog’s life…
Gahh! Why is everyone going overseas? Daniel has basically just come back after going to Europe for five weeks or something and he flew “Etihad Airways” to get there (is pretty jealous) on an A340-500 (is more-jealous) and stayed in Abu Dhabi located in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for a while! (is even more jealous). Then another one of my friends, Taylor, also recently went overseas and he’s flying “Virgin Atlantic” (is sorta jealous), on an A340-600 (is jealous) and visiting random places in Europe (Don’t really care that much)… Then my Food Tech partner is also going overseas soon and he’s flying “Emirates Airlines” (is jealous), flying on (i think) and A340-600 (is more-jealous but hopes he’ll be on the flight that has a B777-300(or is it a -200?) because Airbus is so much better than Boeing, although the 777 isn’t that bad of an aircraft) and he’s got a stopover in Dubai (is extremely jealous (and a whole lot more jealous than Daniel because Dubai is better than Abu Dhabi but they’re both good) even though they’ll only be staying in the airport during their stopover) located also in the UAE and then will be heading to Europe (Who may run into Taylor I think at Paris-CDG airport if all goes to plan but I don’t really care about that).
Although I hope to BEAT THEM ALL(-ish)! If things go the way I want, in September I’ll be flying SINGAPORE AIRLINES (w00t!) on an A380-800 (EXTREME W00T!) AND a B777-200(or is it a -300?) with a stopover in SINGAPORE’S CHANGI AIRPORT(more w00t!) on my way to Shanghai (sorta-w00t) and hopefully visit the new SHANGHAI WORLD FINANCIAL CENTRE (even more w00t!)! Although right now, that plan doesn’t look that promising as my dad would rather prefer a direct flight flying most likely either “Air China” or “China Eastern Airlines” (Which are not that great, in fact last time I flew on them they were pretty terrible and Air China didn’t even give us complementary peanuts!) on an A330-200 (which I find quite boring but at least it’s an Airbus…) to Shanghai… But oh well, I guess you can’t have everything…
