I am really tired right now; I just got home from a busy day. We started early today because we need to be in Airlink by 1000H. At Airlink, they got my measurements for my uniform, and then we paid my dorm rent. While we were in the Accounting office, there were also some students who were also getting their measurements, maybe some of them will be my future classmates. I am really excited right now. I was not like this before. Usually when school season draws nearer, I just want to have a vacation. But now, I want to start my classes as soon as possible. I was not able to see the dorm since they were too busy; I will just see it on June 4, before my classes start. I am also excited to have my uniform and my books. I am already feeling the thrill of a fledgling student pilot. When we were in the accounting office, there were some student pilots who just arrived from their flight from Lubang Island. Most of them are ranked as First Officers since they have 2 stripes in their shoulder boards and they have their silver wing pins on their chest. When I was on line in the cashier, one pilot stood behind me. Deep inside my mind, I was thinking.

Wow! I will be like this guy after 4 years!

When I was standing beside him, I stood straight and tall and showed him that I am a dignified person and that I can be a pilot also. He was just about my height, and I think he saw me looking at his wings. Maybe he was thinking that I am envious of him, but I really am. Man, those silver wings are really cool. I cant wait to have mine. When I went down to the registrars office to get my schedule, there were more pilots. It is like the pilots haven. I seldom see a place full of pilots at a given time, maybe I should get used to it. I overheard one pilot who was telling a story about his experience in his flight earlier today. He really had a scary experience. He said that the winds in Lubang were very strong, at around 20 knots. During his take off, at 700 ft. they experienced a down draft or a sudden loss of altitude because of strong winds, they were able to level out at 300 ft. Man that is really scary, just imagine a sudden fall after take off with a very low altitude at 700 ft. He was telling the other student pilot

Pare, akala ko didiretso na kami sa dagat, kinabahan talaga ako kaya hinatak ko ng todo, buti nakabawi kame.

He was talking about a near death experience. But yet, when I saw him, it seems like that it is normal to him. Still there is no sign of coward ness in his reactions. Truly, the life of a pilot is really risky. Every time you fly, there is always a lot of risk involved. But thats what makes this profession unique.

After that, we went to Prudentialife in Makati, then we went to Glorietta to eat our lunch. We ate at Illongo grill and my dad ordered chicken barbeque. When he was eating, the chicken tasted really bad. Its smells like LPG. So he told the waiter about it, and when the waiter was able to confirm it. He offered my dad anything. So my dad chose sizzling sisig.

Sige sir, palitan nalang namen, pili nalang kayo ng kahit anong gusto niyo

After that, we went to the bank to get my ATM then we went to Loyola together with my cousins to visit my Lola because it is her birthday today. We just lit a candle and left a rose. After that, we ate at Hap Chan then went home. So thats it. Im really tired. I need a shower.
