I'm lost... A few hours ago, I was still trying to think of the possibilities of clearing my solo-check flight (Sortie 109) with the current standards that I have. I am still having problem with landing my aircraft correctly and safetly. I am still landing it very hard, not giving the aircraft sufficient time to float down nicely and gently on its main wheels first followed by the nose wheel. I am running out of time... every cadet is given 15 hours to clear his first solo-check flight with his instructor. I have burnt off 11 hours already! My Sortie 108 today was a disaster... I haven't flew for the past 13 days due to bad weather and my instructor on a week's leave. I knew I would be rusty, but I didn't expect it to be that bad. My landing profile became from bad to worse...
I need to talk to someone...a few people came into my mind...
1) Person A - my mama --> not a good choice, don't wan her to worry too much
2) Person B - a fellow buddhist and senior that I got to know here in Jandakot --> yes, I think it would be a better choice =)
3) Person C - the ice maiden, always so nice, always so cool when viewed from far
--> neh, not really a good choice cus it will be as good as talking to a wall...HAHA...but that's the usual her...and most probably I'll be like an old uncle telling long winded stories to her (something that she can't tolerate...haha, what kind of weird friend I have here??)
4) Person D - talk to myself --> neh, not a good choice either, I have been trying to settle myself down since this afternoon...worked for awhile but the "Lost" feeling just kept coming back.
In the end, I chose option (2)... Had a nice chat with my senior and some of his fellow coursemates and poured out my problems in flying to them...Well, it seems that the issues that I am facing now were once haunting them when they were at their initial stage of training...hahaha...felt much better after that =P Am really grateful to have a bunch of helpful seniors here, who're willing to listen and provide advise...
Somehow, I ended up also sharing my problem with 3 ladies on MSN, my little sista, an ex-colleague from HP and the "Bubbly" Cindy (^_^)v. All provided encouragement and were good audience...And special thanks to Cindy for having to listen to my loooong complains even though she just returned from her sailing trip (oops .. shouldn't elaborate more, her job is HIGHLY CLASSIFIED hehe) Cheers Mate! =)
Ah~ I'm feeling much better now... The negative thoughts are being purged out of my head more or less... ~phew~ Off to bed and prepare myself for another new day ahead!!

.:: 家有仙妻 ::.
This is a taiwanese comedy drama series which was first shown some time in 1992. I remembered I was in secondary 1 and would watch every episode without fail on every Sunday morning, 10am to 12pm. It was my favourite show and it is STILL my favourite show now...Haha...recently, I started to take it out to watch it again on my off days or when I need to relax after my flight and I began to recollect lots of seconday school days memories.Basically, this is a show about a pretty young lady, 何莉莉, who had this magic jade that could give her supernatural powers and eventually got married to this ugly but kind-hearted man, 陈天贵. Of course, a lot of funny things happened along the way, from the time they knew each other, to their courtship days and even after marriage. The show comprises of many short stories, each portaying the evil and kind sides of human and how the pretty "witch" used her supernatural powers to help the unfortunate and punish the villians with the help of her clumsy side-kick, the ugly husband...LOL...I still remembered when I was watching this show as a kid, I was "mesmorised" by it..HAHA! First of all, I totally agree that good people should be rewarded and the evil ones should be punished, ER...but now I realised that this is not necessary true in reality. Secondly, I kinda like that leading actress...hehehe...I think probably because I have a preference over tall , slander, pretty, kind-hearted, homely lady and all these qualities can be found on the role of the leading actress
Thirdly, the leading actor gave me a ray of hope...LOL...The guy, 陈天贵, was very ugly but kind-hearted and very wood-block. I find strong resemblence between myself and 陈 天贵, though I am not as ugly (Ok, maybe 20% as ugly and 100% as wood-block as the guy..haha). At that time, at the age of 13 yrs old, I believed that 好心有好报, a kind hearted soul may be rewarded, for instance --> a tall, pretty, slander, capable, homely and kind wife, just like the couple in the show...LOL, I managed to recall my teenage idealistic expectations of my future partner when I started to watch the show again...
I guess I am still hoping to find my ideal partner but I know that the chances are pretty slim too...partly because of the terrible setback from the previous r/s and also I think my requirements are set too high (probably because I am a perfectionist HAHA...I know folks out there will say: "Dude, you're just an average looking fella, DON'T PRESS YOUR LUCK!"...Hey, 我很丑可是我很温柔 Ok?). Though I will tell myself "Come What May" BUT some times I can't help asking myself "When will my "
何莉莉" appear???"
