Rhine Falls @ Zurich

I decided to go out with my colleagues to the specific nature spectacle Rhine Falls. It's Europe's biggest waterfall. It's located at Northern Switzerland close to the German border. The journey took us an hour by train.
We got thrilled by this natural phenomenon by taking a boat ride close to the falls. It costs us CHF6.50. However, it was an awesome yet exciting experience.

In the train.






Arrived... and the boat ride

Me again with the Rhine Falls as my background (took in different angle)

















I started to like this place, Zurich. The people here are nice and friendly; English is one of the common languages here and you'll feel relaxed when walking on the street. There are so many tourists' spots available here but I'd missed it. This will be one of the places that I am going to visit again. (BUT, the standard of living is too high... Things are very costly here)
During the journey, one of my colleagues commented that I am easily bullied by others due to the fact that I am too humble, polite and nice. She said I am easy going and helpful; crews will take advantages from me. I agree what she said but this is my personality. To avoid being bullied by the leading stewardess later, I told them I'll act cool today and talk less to show her how "fierce" I am...
I must be very firm and confident today. STOP raising your voice on me or insulting me, B***H.

Blur + Dizzy + Gastric Fever

I kept telling myself to sleep more and ended up I could only sleep near 1am last night. Woke up few times in between and finally woke up at 9.45am.
When I woke up, I felt a bit of dizzy and gastric fever. Maybe I am not adjusted to the timing here yet (jet lag)? But I always follow Singapore time and it doesn't seem like a problem for me. Perhaps I didn't have any appetite and I didn't each much? Or because of the passenger sitting in front of me kept coughing during take off without covering his mouth? I felt discomfort at first but I couldn't do anything... The virus has entered my body? Better not!!!
I just took my breakfast and feeling slightly better now. But still feeling nauseous and blur...
Something to share here about the flight yesterday. I was working in J-class (Business Class) as galley steward's assistant yesterday. I was so blur and I was feeling guilty that I couldn't help a lot. This is only my second time working in this aircraft. BUT, I tried my best to accomplish every single task that I can handle myself. I think I'd done my best but I'll try to improve and speed up. Working with my chief is quite comfortable. He didn't give us pressure and worked together with us. There was one incident where he spilt the tea while he passed it to me. He said "F**K" without thinking much. I was thinking that he's scolding me and I apologized. However, he apologized to me instead when there was a chance and told me that he didn't mean that. He was blaming himself for it . Thus, I felt he is quite humble and nice. He is good looking and when you see him, you'll be surprise that he is a chief. He looks like a steward because he looks young and well maintained. But, there is one thing that I was disappointed with him is he was "trying" on one of my colleagues. He touched her face while talking to her on the journey to our hotel. It's terrible and I'll consider it as sexual harassment.
There is one leading stewardess that kept picking on me yesterday. She will be working in EY (economy zone) tomorrow and I am worried that I'll be assigned to work with her. It'll be a bad time for me... Hope everything will be fine.

Zurich- New Wing Room in Crowne Continental Hotel

I am currently in Zurich and it's 5.30pm here... I am still thinking whether I should go out for sightseeing tomorrow or hibernate in my room. I did this flight few times but I didn't go out for sightseeing. Reason being: it was winter and not a good weather to go out or darling's sister, Patricia came to look for me and brought me out.
The best thing about this trip is we managed to get the new wing room instead of the old one. I showed Pat the new renovated room and she commented that it is better in look. It is more comfy and modern design.
Let's don't think so much and just follows what your mind thinks & your body wants. Most of time they have conflict: I wish to stay in the room and wait for my darling to online and can rest earlier VS I hope to explore more and take more pictures. Better stop here and gonna meet my darling in my dream.

My Sweet Display Picture with Love

Did you see my new displayed picture? It's from my darling... I asked him the comment on my last displayed picture; he told me that he didn't like it and asked me why I always follow other people idea? It sounds like I am just following the footprint and have nothing much in my mind.
There is something that I would like to clarify: initially I was displaying my picture as the header and it was a bit large in the layout. I was quite satisfied with it until I realized I looked pale in the photo. Thus, my best friend Xiao Pang gave me the idea to make one that composes of many pictures.
However, darling promised to make a set of pictures for me to display in my blog. It will be monthly basis; changes every month. I was so happy on his contribution. To him, I am like a kid. By giving me some little surprise, I'll be satisfied and stay happily ever.
Tell you some secret behind the displayed picture here. Did you notice that bottom left there is some captions start with "I Love You The Way..", "The Way You..." It's actually a poem that my darling wrote for me. He showed me this poem on the day we started our relationship. It was a sweet memory because he was observing me during that period of time and he pen it down. He is not good in telling you in person but good in writing. (What I like or dislike? How I react in some circumstances that stayed in his memory? Describing some of my gesture or action that I had without knowing it) Darling, you still owed me a novel. You promised to write a novel about me but you have not start it yet,even a single paragraph. Looking forward to it... Love ya, muakssss

My Surprise

Darling, remember what you have promised to "contribute" in my blog. I am waiting for it.I was happy that darling gave me the idea and offered to make it for me. I'll share more in my next coming post.


Darling was in the town

I touched down on 20th and darling came to sin on that day. He was here for 2 nights.
On the first day, we went to Sunshine Plaza and Iluma Shopping Centre. We took our dinner at Empire State. We ordered smoked salmon as our appetizer, home made burger and cheesy baked mussels.The conclusion we made is: the food are so-so only.
On the next morning, I prepared breakfast for him. The main course I had for him is Denmark Grilled Pork Sausages, Sunny Shine Up and Mushroom Omelet. He enjoyed eating it...I know he'll feel happy if I always cook for him.




This is the second meal that I prepared for him









We went to Thiong Bahru Plaza and Ion Mall after our breakfast. We took our lunch in Ion Mall's foodcourt and the food were nice.



Hakka "suan pan zi"










Dumpling









Fried carrot cake







Time flies fast... Darling went back to KL yesterday and I am a bit "down" here. "Down" in a way that we are seeing each other after 2 weeks; I'll be alone again and I hate the "separate" feeling. You won't be seeing me laughing, you won't be seeing me sleep soundly and deeply by your side, you won't be seeing me eating a lot...
By the way, I just tried on my pants and I think I gained weight le... Fat around my hips. SHITTTT!!! I must get rid of all the extra fats that makes me looked fat.

My New Display Picture

I asked xiao pang about my displayed picture; he told me that the picture looks big and I looked pale . He preferred janelle's one. He suggested me to do it myself and download the software from www.picasa.google.com.
I tried to do it and I inserted some of the pictures I took while I am travelling & working. I was quite "proud" of myself that I'd made it. While I am doing the photo editing, I realized that I'd traveled some of the places that I dreamt of when I was small. It has made a difference on my personal profile and it will be a good memory indeed.
Thanks xiao pang for making me feel so good about my job again and I'll try to share more on my journey experience.
