Simple Sila, just take 1 year from your canvas and expand it into a 12 month chrono.am thinking of doing that in due time so can contribute more to this thread.
aiya - i don't think people want to hear all the boring stuff in my life. i was thinking i can make a fake canvas - maybe the alternate "What if" canvas? :D

What if........i was a jet fighter pilot.....

I have this interest in fighter jets....either reading abt them or building plastic models...

Many many years ago.....i was offered this scholoarship in spore to do A levels and together with it came a Flying club training....so, i attended this medical test in the PSC building. I actually cheated on the eye test thingy in which i din close my left eye completely when they were testing my right eye...so pass lor...then, they send me over to the Paya Lebar military medical centre in which they use very keng equipment for medical test and unfortunately, I fail miserably on the eye tests ...so din get the flyin club thingy...sigh....could be flyin the F16 Falcon by now....anyway, my fav jets of all time is the F15 Eagle...

What if i had taken the decision to try my luck to come over in the states.

maybe too much of "The Godfather" and Law and Order, siewjang.. :D but dream's what if was so exciting, i thought i should have a more exciting what if oso..

eh, i didn't know you wanted to be a stewardess. i hear it is a good and fun job and get to travel everywhere and do fun things. but eventually have to stop lah and get a normal job. but can "sow wild oats", right? ;)

siewjang
03-18-2005, 12:31 PM
3-0 will be a good age to stop being a stewardass :D I'll be announcing my resignation from Cathay Pacific (or even SIA) today or even now :D and start looking for a decent job maybe as a tourist guide.

Sila
03-18-2005, 12:38 PM
siewjang - you can open your own business. be a "trip planner" and take care of all the peopl who go on honeymoons and stuff. help them organize their travel tickets, hotels, and schedule their entertainment, since you will have been everywhere and done everything while working for Cathay Pacific, right? :D

03-18-2005, 01:00 PM
vc! wah, memang ada gaya pn hasini!! :D is that your what if? hahahaha

no no actually i thought about going to russia after graduation - i belajar russian 2 tahun during my undergrad. and after grad, dok pikir pikir pikir, nak jadi apa? donno. so i thought can go teach english in russia and become better at russian. my parents freaked out at this idea. i thought about the peace corps - but then i thought di malaysia pun ramai orang yang miskin dan boleh saya tolong. how terrible would it be to go to some other country to help people while i can do the same in my own country. plus, peace corps you have to sign up for 27 bulan... ayooooo long time lo... so i was thinking, what if i had gone to russia, apa jadi? :D
