home sweet home

arrived at 1230 this morning .
flew qantas and it was one of the most horrible flights (ok, not as bad as flying lufthansa) . but still , you know what i mean . let me tell you why :

everything was going fine until we boarded the plane and as i was making my way to my seat (which was 26C) , i heard 2 ladies behind me say that their seats were 26 A and B . so i thought i'd be considerate and let them go in first , cos mine was the aisle seat . the fat obnoxious aussie lady (who thinks that wearing pin-striped tights are flattering for her figure) says thank you and then asks her mother to go in first BUT she asks her to sit on the seat in the middle (why she did that , i will never know) . meanwhile , the fat lady is trying to put her very large plastic bag in the overheard compartment . you see this took her some time and so i was in the way of the other pasengers just because that fat lady was in the way - she even stood on my seat to try to get her bag in .

after she's done with this , she finally tries to get to her seat - keeping in mind that she has to climb/squeeze past her mother who is sitting in the middle seat . so all's good , everyone's in their seats and the plane takes off . i thought everything was fine , until the man to my right took of his shoes . OH MY , the worst smelling feet on the face of this planet . it was like he hadn't washed his socks in a million years or something . ewww . very disgusting . what i don't understand is that how NOBODY else seemed to be uncomfortable with the smell except me . are aussies that unhygenic that they can't smell musty socks ?

so yes . that was why the flight was horrible . i'm just happy that there was inflight entertainment and that qantas has finally installed little screens for each passenger . so i managed to watch 'vanity fair' and see some of jude law in another movie . that was good .

since i've been back , i've bathed samson ! at last . can't trust lynne with him cos he was sooooo bloody filthy and disgusting . cleaned him and his pen up , so now he smells clean . huzzah . he just really needs a haircut that's all - must call crazy groomer mimi .

had a really great holiday and it's surprising that one month seems like such a long time . hahah . done so much stuff too , been going out every day since the exams have ended . feeling very tired at the moment .
feels nice to come home cos i missed my room and the house and dad and samson . it's still funny how dad insists that he doesn't love samson , even though he kicks the ball around with him and feeds him food . haha .

anyway , will post the photos up soon . there's LOTS of them .
*p.s. HAPPY NEW YEAR !! it's 2005 . got to get used to writing that year now .
