I'm scratchy thanks to AA2006

My feet are sore.
My arms ache.
My skin is burnt.

What did I do?

I attended the Asian Aerospace Exhibition 2006 yesterday. I went to the office as usual, then I learnt that my colleagues will all be going for the AA. Since I already pre-registered and had the pass, why not I tag along?

Happily happily followed my boss go to Expo and waited for my other colleagues. We also had to wait for some overseas guests. To get there, we had to take a shuttle bus costing $2 per trip. Obviously, the company paid for it.

I shook hands with the head of the delegate and together with my colleagues brought them into the AA. In the queue, I met my air stewardess friend AGAIN. Last time meet on aeroplane. Now meet at airshow. HAHA! So cool.

The pre-registration helped me get past everything much quickly, but we still had to wait for our guests to come through the queue so same lahz. It was already 11am by then. The sun was shining down strong. People were prepared to catch the air show at 11:30am. I mean, that’s what people come to the show for right?

Saw plenty of kids too. I think they’re from some school that taught them flying? My colleagues let the overseas guests wander around on their own and specified to meet at 4pm.

Being from the ST Engineering group, we could hang around the first part of the exhibition mingling around before heading out in a while to catch the air show.

For someone like me who couldn’t care less about planes, the air show shouldn’t mean much. Still, watching the planes do their usual spins and routines, makes me filled with awe…. Being able to tahan the motion (‘cos I have motion sickness), being able to control a big plane and calculate exactly what speed to go at, how to steer it (unlike on the ground you have a road, in the air all you have are clouds which don’t really help navigate,;like at sea you have nothing but water around.).

I tried to capture a few shots on my mobile but obviously it didn’t catch much except a little black dot resembling a fly. You have to watch it for yourself there and then I guess.

It took only a short while before my colleagues and I started to melt. We found shelter without much of a view but we figured the shelter was more important so it had to do. Anyone who saw a girl and a couple of guys near the big screen beside the trailer, yep, that was me.

Halfway through I noticed that the queue to sit in the fighter plane had reduced to only 1 kid. My colleague accompanied me over. There was a cute pilot at the top of the stairs, but I was more interested in the plane really. I got to sit inside and realised how amazingly snugly I fit in. Wonder how the pilot fits inside there. I guess it’s meant to feel really tight, but kinda cosy at the same time. Or maybe I was standing on heels for too long. Haha! Damn cool lehz.

No camera, but luckily handphone have. Haven’t figured out how to transfer the photo out to the compy so too bad. Photo-less post.

Spent the rest of the day hunting for souvenirs to take. Landed up with more magazines than anything. I would think my engineers and managers are usually lazy to take these so I stock them up in case they come into use.

Damn heavy lugging the stuff around. Took paper bags, plastic bags, badges, etc… Basically anything that was shoved to me I just took. Most booths only gave plastic bags. Better than nothing. But as stuff got heavier I stopped.

Saw a company named CMI Defence. Heehee.. Those who know what the abbreviation CMI would understand the joke. Oh, there’s another company named CFM. HAHA!

There was a portion where we could walk around and see the many planes up close. A pity no going up onto the planes allowed. We noticed a shuttle bus to see the big planes. Thinking it was to be the new Airbus 380, we joined the long queue. We had a lot of time to kill anyway. Set back was that it was very hot. Thankfully there was a little shade.

We got there in the packed shuttle bus, but realised we were not able to get onto the A380 either! ARGH! Kenna cheated! Only got to see this and 2 other bigger fighter planes. We quickly joined the queue for the bus to go back. There was only this one bus. It was very slow. This time there was no shade. The sun was beating down on us at about 2pm. I was very thankful for not wearing a long sleeved blouse.

My heels were killing my feet. I needed a seat. I would have also appreciated some food. We found a seat at one of the sort of air-conditioned places for food. Heng ah. Had a hot dog and 2 cans of Chrysanthemum. By then we still had another hour to kill I think.

We wandered some more like zombies. Saw a lady who had her blouse unbottoned till her boobs seemed ready to burst out. Witnessed the most awesome presentation ever by Elbit. It was an enactment that displayed their capabilities in a very interesting way. It was like witnessing a part of a movie live.

A guy was going through what the capabilities of their company were. Behind him were 4 young soldiers messing around with the computers, and a large screen displaying a map with lots of lines and blinking dots (ala the movies).

Suddenly the red light on top flashes and he says there’s a code red. Then you see the soldiers behind playing along getting really busy. The recorded videos of how they tracked down the “intruders” that “caused” the red alert, the communication between this real soldier in front of us and that of the PA system plus the fantastic acting were all done so professionally. I was extremely impressed.

The presentation ended and we STILL had time to kill. Wandered around some more. Landed up at our ST Engineering booth again.

By the time we left, it was exactly 4pm. We made our way to catch the shuttle bus to the Expo again. My goodness it was such a horribly long walk. On the way I met a secondary school friend which lifted my spirits up for a moment before I continued trudging on. Our guests had a coach waiting for them at the Expo. My colleagues went with them back to where they were staying, while I took the train back to Clementi. Reached home at about 5:45pm. Kaoz.

My feet pretty much died. I realised I missed a couple of spots when I applied my moisturiser that morning (got abit of SPF). This means I’ll be expected to peel abit here and there. I lay down for a while, had my dinner and off I was to class again.

Caught CSI, America’s Next Top Model and American Idol all after class, though I didn’t finish the last one. I just had to go to bed.

Tonight there’s more idol, but I really ought to be studying.

Social Psychology, Human Resource Management, Principles of Accounts, and Marketing. Hmm.. Which one should I work on when all are equally lousy?

Then again, there maybe a BBQ the guests are throwing that I’ll attend. And tomorrow’s no good either because I need to hold a meeting for my band fellas. Wow. I feel so guilty compared to Dearie now. He’s been studying lots sia. Eeks. Ok, so sometimes he gets sleepy, but who doesn’t?!

I never had much of a brain for studying. What am I even doing trying to get a Business degree?! Argh.. I should’ve just taken up singing, dancing and more instruments. I learn THOSE a hell lot faster and better.

Meanwhile, I’ve yet to see the NYP scandal video. Only read about it. I still can’t believe the anal sex part. I mean who in the right frame of mind has anal sex?! It’s plain sick. Can you imagine the effect it would have on the girl’s bowel movement? I tell you it is physically insane. If guys do not like it in the ass, they should not do it in girl’s asses.

But of course, there’re those who’ll prove me wrong.

Anal sex is extremely sick indeed. The anus is meant for shitting. We should all wear underwear with the "NO ENTRY" sign behind ;p

Agree that the video is nothing much. Very boring to me.

Didnt know you from ST Engineering. I was there on the first day. No special car label so gotta park at Changi V and WALK all the way down.

Kaoz, feet already ached when we reached there. And then there was the scorching sun too. Kinda disappointed in the air show really, no acrobatic displays this year. Saving grace was probably the A380. It looks huge even though its so high up.

Same like you, i am sun burnt too but then its ok lah, last year that AA will be held here.

You take care and study.

Wow! The Singapore Technologies group have so much floor place. They practically dominated the place like in previous shows!
