Adventure!

Tuesday, December 12 was a good day for me. I received gifts ... both material and emotional. Keith and I then went to the airport (JFK) then had dinner there. After going through the whole security inspection thing ... I was able to chill and call relatives to say my holiday greeting.

The boarding call for the flight from New York to Anchorage was announced. Everyone was so eager to get on the plane. Then I was wondering why we haven't moved yet even if it seemed like all the passengers are already there. The flight attendant then announced there will be a delay to ONE passenger's check in problem. We were delayed for 1 hour and 1o minutes. After finally moving, I realized that I had the 3 seats to myself. So, yey! I was able to lie down and have a good nap.

Upon arrival to Anchorage (Alaska), we were asked to disembark. Then finally we were asked to come back. I was hoping the three seats was still all mine. Unfortunately, there were some new passengers. My three seat space became one. I had to sleep sitting all the way from Alaska to Taipei.

Two hours to go until Taipei, the flight attendant announces that since there was a delay in the flight, the connecting flights at Taipei will not be available anymore ... meaning, we all got left behind by the plane!! For example, my connecting flight (Taipei to Manila) was suppose to board at 7:10 AM, but alas, my plane would get to Taipei at 8:05 AM. Talk about grrr.

So, when we got to Taipei, I saw the plane that we were suppose to get on ... pulling away from the hangar. Bad trip. Kaasar. There's like 30-40 of us here. Stuck. We all were able to get a seat to the next flight to Manila which is at 1:55 PM ... so, yeah ... gotta wait for 6 hours!! Haay, good thing there's wireless internet here ... I can go online, I have something to do! But my battery is at 68% already ... hopefully I can find a socket. If not, there's always the sky to stare at.
