KL Trip - Day 1 (Part A)

I was awaken by a mild tap on my right shoulder... My eyes were still half open when the sight of Kakak Diana and the Astro watch indicating 5:50 in the morning greeted me... It was still dark outside when I went to brush my teeth... Thankfully Kakak Diana was preparing breakfast for Abang in the kitchen... So I was not alone on a cold Tueday morning... Then, I went straight to the bathroom to have my morning hot shower and prepare myself after that...

After putting all 3 bags into the car and saying my goodbyes to my family, Jack and I started our 10 minutes journey to the airport at around 6:40... My flight was scheduled at 8:20... Upon arriving at Kuching International Airport, I took the trolley and transfer my luggage onto it... Said goodbye to my cousin and headed to the MAS check-in counter... Put two of my big bags on the weighing platform while telling the young lady where I was going and which seat I would prefer in the plane... I kindly asked her to put me next to a window but instead she put me at 7C, which was seated next to the aisle... I was mad with her because I do not like sitting anywhere but at the window seat...

Since I was alone and had nothing much to do I went in to the departure hall... It was when I reached the hall that I had a stomach discomfort... It was unbearable... I thought the pain would decrease after some time but it got worse... I had no choice but to fill my stomach with food and with that I ordered a coke, french fries, and nuggets from Marrybrown... The pain decreased and I did not finish everything... Brought the leftovers along with me and I hid it in my Guess luggage... I walked to Gate 7 and seated for nearly an hour with my earphones inserted before we were finally asked to enter the plane, MH 2713...

Once I was safely in the plane I quickly dashed toward my seat to fight for my overhead compartment space to store my bag... After everything is perfectly stored in place I sat down and took the Going Places magazine and started reading it to fill my time... I have to admit that I truly DESPISE those whom I may call FOOLISH because they, in this case passengers boarding a plane, never can understand these instructions - TURN OFF YOUR ELECTRONIC DEVICES and DO NOT BEND THE SEAT BACKWARDS!

On the flight, I was served with with a breakfast set... The new packaging was eye-catching... I only ate the grapes, the sandwich, and drank hot tea... Althrough the journey the man sitting at Seat 7A kept blocking my view by sticking his head on the window pane... I was frustrated!
