Greetings from Perth, probably one of the dullest cities in the Southern Hemisphere!
Touched down here at 12:30AM on Sunday morning after a 5 hour flight from Singapore. Managed to catch the movies Closer and After the Sunset on the plane, and once again, I have to state that Natalie Portman is a babe! The flight was great, and as usual, our casanova chatted up the stewardesses.
The school is great. Everything looks new... the accomodation, the dining area, the ops room, the airplanes... At last, we are not going to fly 30+ year old aircrafts. Just went up for my first flight yesterday and the training area itself is larger than Singapore. It is possible to even get lost up there. But there isn't any haze, so you can really see as far as your myopic eyes can see. My instructor is a Scottish guy, so a bit of difficulty understanding him. But slowly getting used to it.
Weather here is okay, hot during the day, and cold during the night. It was 46 deg Celcius just 3 days ago. I was practically cooking under the sun, and some flights had to be cut short due to the temperature. On the other hand, it is freezing at night. No wonder so many people smoke around here.
My friend and I just bought a car together. It is a 1989 Mitsubishi Magma stationwagon. Yes, it is that old, and that is why it is AU$800. No way can you find a car that cheap in Singapore. So, no complaints... for now. Tomorrow will be car wash day.
Pictures are coming up soon.
Oh yes, it is JDK, not JKT.
