:: Pre-flight Jitters ::
i fly next friday. most people know this. but just earlier, i was watching the telly, and baywatch was on. it was this re-run where Cody and April were taking a flight to New York. the plane crashed. 'nuff said.

it probably sounds crazy. i know... it's what i've been telling myself too... people fly all the time. diana just flew 13hrs two way to Paris. andrew does that every week between sydney and melbourne. alasdair does it almost every weekend with his stincts between langkawi and here. david just came in from canada. even my dad is guilty of clocking in tons of Kris flyer points. so what's the deal?

i don't know. maybe it's been the whole she-bang of the Sept 11 incident? or the fact that planes, well, crash? i can swim as well as the next person. my lifesaving certification is still valid. and i know my way around a liferaft, thanks to my lectures in seamanship. *rolls eyes* but. yes, big but. i really don't want anything to happen? duh. neither did everyone else involved in plane accidents.

this is the first time i'm gonna be flying with the Malaysian Airlines. first time i don't fly direct to anywhere. which means i have to transit in KL. by myself. okay, i'm kinda freaking out. so? wouldn't you?
