Tiring day..

I suddenly woke up early today at about 0530 from nightmare by my neighbor next door, Iskandar. Thanks man. That dream suffered me so much. Can’t tell you what my dream was. Hahaha... That was my past. One of my terrible memories I had long time ago. Somehow, I changed now, little by little. Oh, forgot to tell you that I changed my villa along with Faizal. That’s due to majority of the villa are smokers. My friend coughed days before I write this. Pity him. Hey, he’s okay but again coughs because of the bad weather that was rain yesterday. It rained for one whole day. You’re asking about me? I’m fine. Hi mum! Making chocolates at home? (Hahahaha..)

Today class I learnt about so many things. Every day is an adventure to me. For me, my favourite subjects are Radio Telephony (RTT) and Aircraft General Knowledge (AGK). The other subjects are okay but tend to make me sleepy. Well, in class we cannot sleep or lean on the table. If we do that, maybe the Instructor will ask you to stand up or maybe shout at you. As I told you earlier in last post that here is all about DISCIPLINE and TEAMWORK.  So, I tried so hard not to sleep by drinking coffee before the first class and break at 10.15am. Yesterday, I had to stand up at the last 15 minutes before class ended (not because of instructor told me so, I do it myself). If I didn’t understand what I have to learn that day, so it will burden me to study so many things back at the villa. I don’t want that. It will slow me down and maybe being left behind.

I went jogging at about 5.40pm at the Kompleks Islam Jubli Perak Sultan Ismail Petra that situated just at the other side of the road in front of our crew residence. It was quite tiring for me as I didn’t jog for quite a long time. So, my stamina right now is not so strong and I have to build it up. After jog, I went to gym for a 10 minutes session there. Just a little bit. I don’t want to make myself so tired that it will eventually make me want to sleep and sleep but less study. It’s not that profitable for me. I want to become active both physical and mental.

So, as tonight I will be studying for tomorrow’s lesson. Be prepared! Instructors will not teach page by page. They will just go through overall topics.

“Talk Aviation, Dream Aviation and Think Aviation”.

Waiting Ends Here..

Assalamualaikum and hello guys. It has been a long time for me not to update my blog. Dear fellow readers and bloggers, I'm so sorry. Right now, I can online after days of offline due to some reasons.

My place to stay now is Crew Residence here in Pengkalan Chepa for 2 years from now. This is like a home for cadet/student pilot of Asia Pacific Flight Training (APFT). I came here last Sunday for the registration. I'm tired waiting to pursue piloting course. I waited for about almost a year because I undergone Lasik operation to meet the requirement to become a pilot since my spectacle degree is so high.

My new life begins here. Why? Because I want to change myself to become a better person. A pilot cannot be lazy and timid. So, I want to become a pilot who is hardworking, confident and always prepared.

So, why you want to become a pilot? This is the question being asked over and over again.
For me, there's a lot to be told. But I will tell you two reason. First, I want to become the pioneer in my family that pursue piloting. Second, I want to prove to my family that I want to become a successful person. I want to do whatever it takes to obtain the pilot wings.

It's not easy to pursue piloting now. The fees is so expensive and the course is only 20 months which have to cover a lot of subjects and also flying phase. My parents have to go to the bank to apply for loan. I only got the RM100k and every month cut RM2k from my father's salary. You see? Some of my friends here are lucky to get Yayasan Terengganu Sponsorship. I have to study very hard and graduate so that my parents sacrifice will paid off. Before this, I felt so bad about their paying for this expensive course because my family isn't exactly rich. Just so-so. For my batch, we got RM15k discount for the fees.

Join APFT now! Another two intakes. So hurry, why pay more?

I can say that the learning atmosphere is conducive. The instructors here are all friendly and teach us well. I can understand about what I'm learning. The seniors here welcomed us and will help us if one of us have a problem. 

Here at APFT, it's all about TEAMWORK. One person of the batch did something wrong, one batch will be punished. We must help each others. DISCIPLINE is being taught here to all cadets. No exemption. Every Sunday and Thursday, there will be marching parade outside the ground school. 

APFT is recognized as IPTS or Private Higher Education Institution because all cadets here will hold a Diploma in Aviation after graduate as it is included. The only one here in Malaysia. No place else. So, this is a bonus for us.



That's all for the time being. Will update later on this. 
Before you leave my blog to read others, enjoy the photos!
