cold and raining
i'm finally going to paris. with 3 clear days to enjoy i'm praying the weather brightens up a bit. or maybe let me see some snow flakes. praying for a good flight.my face is exploding. suffering the consequences of 3 bags of chips over 4 nights. not enough water. what else? consequences of popping a yellow dot and another black one. yuck.
my first trip as a passenger was pretty fun. lucky it was on the 300er! used my new westone um2 onboard with a/c adapter.. i then realised the noise doesn't come from the a/c but the entertainment system itself. there's this constant buzzing if theres no sound playing. but when u start a movie the noise is negligible. and wearing your own iem is 10 times better than using the supplied headphones. never tried business class noise cancelling ones.. but if you travel in suites u get bose qc2! thats another 5 times better than my humble um2.
watched 10 promises to my dog on the ex2's 10.6" screen. really touching. the adult and child of the lead looks so alike.. i wonder how they found the actresses. listened to some tracks in the 108cd collection. disappointing. would rather listen to the ipod. the quality sounds like 64kbps. watched a bit of foster's home for imaginary friends. finally got to see what bloo is about. he's really cute. no wonder they use him as a children's toy this season. had dinner with ice cream. iv never spent more than 5 minutes to finish a meal onboard until then.
tried to rest with 2 hours left. couldn't sleep. but i found out last row seats in aft isn't that bad.. i got to recline my seat enough for my 1.89m frame to feel comfortable.
in the case of some 777 configurations, the last row seats are unrestricted unlike the ones in fwd.. plus you need not bring your seat back upright during meal service.. which is really uncomfortable for you to have your meal. nothing beats horizontal rest in the bunk.
