And so I've been talking to quite a number of people who did not manage to pass the SIA air steward and stewardess tests. They told me about reaching the place at 330am to queue up when it starts at 9am, the different rounds of interview they had to go through, water confidence tests, skin checks, psychometric tests, and so much more. It sounded abit like the auditions for Singapore Idols, minus the TV coverage.

Suddenly, I have utmost repect for one of ryN*'s fren who is an air stewardess with SIA. I think from now on when I see her, I will see her in a different light. It will not be memories of their 'adventures' or 'encounters' in TPJC or their dumb blonde moments that I have witnessed or heard, when I see her. Instead, I will see her in the light of erm almost like a Singapore Idol.

This post was written in honour of those who made it and have become an air stewardess. I will try to fulfill my own Singaporean dream (no, not the 5CS. its the SIA air crew dream) soon lah. In the years to come..
