Etihad oh Etihad

Dudes...I'm freezing in here!
Transit for 5 hours in Abu Dhabi international airport really numb my cheeks! (the first temperature check available). It's been 4 hours, one hour to go and I really need to get some sleep. Man, so sleepy, but can't close my eyes due this horrible air conditioner (wait for the winter, huh?).
Okay, let me tell you a little about my half journey. My mom and dad, and of course my dear Koh Hun Bun took me to the airport. First timer for this international flight. I had to check in two hours before boarding. I brought one big travelling bag, my back pack and a little bag for important stuffs (passport, purse, cellphone). You know what's inside my travelling bag? Guess!
Yup, rice cooker, frying pan, plates, spoons, forks, mug, shoes, clothes... pretty tight bag indeed. It's a good thing that I don't have to claim baggage when transit or it will dry out my energy.
The half flight was quite fun, actually. Since this is the first time for me in the "international" plane, so I learned the stuffs around me like a first timer. Where did the cable go? What did the screen show?
Well, I had my own screen which contained things that I like such as movies and music. Old and new films, many list of album - from classic to new release...yaaaayyy! The best of all, I got to see Bang U-Khan's new movie! So happy....
And I played Jason Mraz's song, I'm Yours, several time, to remind me of Koh Hun Bun. Miss him already!
To sum up, the entertainment was great!
And about food...well, they kept serving food and drinks that I couldn't take it anymore. Delicious, man.
And they also provide earplug, socks, eye-mask, and blanket...that I hadn't used yet in the plane, but I wear the socks right now coz the temperature in boarding room is really cold.
Oh yeah, one funny thing (I think) happened when we had to pass security check in transit area. We had to take off our shoes, armwatch and belt. I was okay with the first two, but with the last one, I almost got a trouble. I am wearing too wide - waist circle - jeans, so when I took off my belt, it almost fell off! Then I had to keep it up, while my other hand taking care of the bags. I wish there was no camera around...
One more funny thing, well, it's not really funny actually, just not common for me. When I was in the rest room, the cleaning service was quite straight and tight with the people who messed the bathroom. See, if you wet the floor, you had to wipe it by your self! She directly checked the floor and if she found out that you did it, she asked you to clean it. Ha ha.
Dude, I'll be flying again soon, so I have to sign out. Thanks for accompanying me. I'll see you in Germany.
