SAUDIA OPEN DAY (Saudi Arabian Airlines)

As an observation, IPAMS hold Saudia (Saudi Arabian Airlines) open days quarterly. This 2016, it already had two open days during February and June. Here's a quick recap of what I went through during the open day. Take note, this is my first try ever so I think I don't wanna be too harsh on myself.

1. Arm reach - 212cm on tiptoe. Tip: Stretch with all your might! Height isn't a factor. I'm not even exactly 5'3" but I could still reach it. Make sure to practice, practice, and pratice more at home. Do a lot of stretching or yoga poses. C'mon you can google it. That's how you landed on my page right? HAHA. 

2. Weight - I was overweight by only 0.5 kg so I was adviced to lose the excess "fat" lol. Check the BMI chart for your reference. Tip: A friend of mine tried military diet and lost a kilogram within just a week. For underweight, well, eat a lot, drink soya or appeton weight gain formula that's what they suggested.

3. Height - 5'3" is also a standard used for SV.

----- There were candidates sent home after this part because they were either overweight, too short, or wasn't able to reach 212cm on tiptoe with at least one hand.

4. Group dynamics - Introduce yourself and pick a question. You have to market yourself and prove to the recruiter that you are worth giving a slot for the final interview. Smile and be confident. Remember that FA posture. For this part, the recruiter will do a skin and teeth check. Don't forget your grooming. You shouldn't have baby hair popping up those hairsprayed bun of yours. Make sure your blemishes are treated, teeth are clean and white, and scars are concealed. You may wear skintone stockings too. 

5. Done. Just wait in agony for a few more days. Haha.

So there. I knew I wasn't gonna make it because of my big, dark, ugly keloid on my left knee which was impossible to cover up. 

You'll get a text and email once you're qualified for the final interview.

 He was a trap I didn’t see coming. Not that I want to be succumbed in a messy romantic relationship once again because frankly, I am freaking jaded right now.

I recall devoiding myself of human emotions ‘cause it’s exhausting to feel every ‘high’ all at once.

I just wish someone wasn’t so easy to admire. It isn’t their fault. Attachments are so shitty. So are unrequited feelings. (2015)

rejected dreams

 trapped in a shoebox

filled with desires too high

unable to put food on the table

months to go before 23,

is it to late to be who she wants to be?

 The squinting luster,

 of his fancy Rolex,

 A constant, slapping reminder, 

Of how she was never granted, 

A fraction of his second.

 even the heap of cigarette smoke

 from midnight coffees, cocktails with peers cannot destroy me any longer. I am destroyed. there’s nothing but hollowness where a caged wild heart was once beating there is no other way but to exhale poison chunks out of the system. I am destroyed like cigarette butts stepped on like ashes carried away by the wind

 tainted was my state of being

you did not only break my heart

you simply broke me

wanting to peel off the flakes of skin

where your fingerprints used to ran all over,

I was certain to find no more traces

but remnants of you seemed never-ending

as I dig deeper through the cracks you’ve made,

there you go seeping through my pores

a parasite crawling all over

draining all my body fluids

only time and time again

will allow me to regenerate

into the new being now immuned,

to the unbearable inevitability
