Official 3 years in DUBAI
8 June 2010 - FIRST STEP TO DUBAI, sandpit land.
I was excited to come to dubai, I was excited
to start my new life, I was excited to work with a company that I have
been wanted, I was excited that soon I would be traveling around the
world, I was excited that I would be working on A380 aircraft, I was excited to go back to be a pretentious cabin crew again(he he)
BUT
I
was sad to leave Spain, I was sad that I wouldn't be able to back to
Spain for the next 6months. I was sad that I would not get any Jamon serrano nor un bocadillo de lomo con gueso, I would miss the beach summer in Tarragona-Gin and tonic, paella, cava.....
But I had belief and fatih that 'It's gonna be fun, full of positive energy and looking forward to it.
"8 June 2010" My life in Dubai just had started................
"8 June 2013" - I am:
-Name: I am still Byrant - Settawat Jhermpun
-Age: I am now 32.
-Status: Last year 2012 September, My heart was broken after 5 years relationship. Now I remain 'unknown' (ไม่รู้ว่าจะยังไงดี).
-I WAS A VEGETARIAN!
........Ever since my heart was broken, I decided to be a non-strict Vegetarian till Thai's New year celebration (13April), according to my religious belief(aim: not to support people killing animals), hoped that Life crisis would go away and my life would get better. And believe it or not, It really worked!! Today, I come back to eat meat. So I have been a VEG for half a year. I liked it.
-Smoker: Yes but soon no(hopefully)
........I am still smoking, but trying to quit (as always). I have set a goal that I will totally quit smoking by this year.
-Health: Pretty well
.........I started to go to gym after my heart broken, and I got a good result, my boobs became a bigger. Will keep doing it. Last month just found that Bikram Yoga is good too, which I will try to do it.
-Employment: Of course!
.........I am still with Emirates! I now become "a Senior Flight Attendant" at my work, just since May2013- I enjoyed it. Even though I was scared and not want to be. I won't leave any time soon, as the economy crisis still not so well. FYI, 2012-2013 No bonus :( Thank god I got 2011!!
-Overall: Ok Ok...
.........Today, I felt more responsible, and feel that I have to stop spending lifestyle as Dubai's cabin crew. And start to compare with normal people who works Mon-Fri, WHO..... has to pay for own rent accommodation, electricity-water expenses..... has to response for own clothes to go for work.....has to think of the the expense of transportation to go for work......(some)has to take care of their families....... has to cook themselves home for saving money........has to calculate money to make the month ends and hope that will have some bucks to shopping by the end of the month....... .....REALLY I have to start, NOT to care whatever my colleagues will judge me, I really have to start and try to do as a normal people's life style.
DUBAI is fun, DUBAI is the most amazing place, DUBAI offered lots of things, DUBAI is really muti-nationalities, DUBAI is cosmopolitan.
DUBAI has offered me too many things that I never been, seen. DUBAI spoils me. DUBAI changes me. DUBAI changes my life.
I NEED TO STOP!! I have to stop DUBAI controlling my life, I have to do things as the way I want to be. I want to have a good future, I don't want to be stuck in DUBAI forever.......
(PS. Don't get me wrong that Dubai is not a good place, It is just too good - I guess)
