My weakness ...

I sneaked off to Singapore about 2 months ago for a little R & R. So once I've landed, armed with my camera and having developed an interest in photography, there are some things a guy must do in such a situation.


oh boy ..., originally uploaded by ~g~.

I've always had a 'crush' for stewardesses. Why? Not sure really. Maybe it's because they're always impeccably dressed, well spoken, there to satisfy your every whim ...

Let's compare a stewardess vs a wife shall we?

[Me]: [As I walk aboard the plane/into the house]
[Stewardess]: "Welcome aboard sir, how are you today? Please cross the aisle, your seat will be to your left side. Have a pleasant journey."
[Wife]: "Ahhh ... you're back ah? What took you soooo long? Come come come ... time to take out the trash".

[Me]: [For the safety briefing ...]
[Stewardess]: "For your safety, please divert your attention to the crew. In an emergency ...".
[Wife]: "Careful ahhh, if you hurt yourself need to pay medical bill too ...".

[Me]: [As I get ready for a meal]
[Stewardess]: "Sir, we have the braised beef with steamed vegetables or the chicken penne pasta. Which would you like?"
[Wife]: "The beef liver with bitter gourd and duck tongue soup is in the kitchen. Go take yourself lah ... ". "What? Don't want to eat? Don't eat, don't eat looorrrr"

[Me]: [As tea and coffee is served ...]
[Stewardess]: "Sir, tea? coffee? [or me?]"
[Wife]: "You want coffee? Here's the Nescafe 3 in 1, got get the hot water from the kitchen yourself."

[Me]: [As the entertainment begins ...]
[Stewardess]: "Sir, here are a pair of headphones."
[Wife]: "Eh ... why are you listening to your headphones? I need to talk to you. You see hooorrr my friends and I went shopping ... blah blah blah ... then hooorrrr ... I lost in mahjong .... blah blah blah ... then I ran the car into our post box ..."

[Disclaimer: The situation above is purely fictional. So wives, please don't kill me ok?]

Haha... when I was young, I always thought flight attendants were one of the coolest people on earth. People always say they get bad treatment from the cabin crew, but I dont think i've ever had any bad experience!

Me too ... well about 'not getting bad treatment'. Some are definitely friendlier than others but all in all, they've been polite.

I wonder what they're really like when they're not working. I don't know of many people who have stewardess friends.

Still, SIA ones are the best so far.
