I am leaving tonight for Sydney. I haven't finish packing. And I am still in the office!! I had to come into office to meet with my PI. Will try to go home soon.

I felt very stressed for this trip. First, the girls' father was late by 30 minutes in picking us up and sending us to the airport so that we could have dinner before I leave and before the girls go for tuition at 7pm. We only arrived at the airport at 6.15pm. Second, the Japanese restaurant at Terminal 3 forgot our order and we were waiting for 20 minutes for nothing before we stormed out and quickly looked for another place to eat. By then it was already 7pm. Thank goodness, Coffee Club served their food quite fast and I had soup before I had to rush in at 7.25pm as the boarding time was 7.35pm. The girls were still having their dinner and they had to go to their tuition late as well. Sigh. If only someone can learn to manage his time properly. Third, the flight was delayed and we only took off at 9.30pm. All because of a couple who checked in but never turned up at the plane so time was wasted removing their luggage while the rest of us sat in the stuffy air plane. It was an awful experience with SIA. :(
I sat on the upper deck as it was an air bus. Well, I didn't think the seats were more comfortable. Plus, only two toilets for 80+ people was quite bad. There were always long queues for the two toilets. The situation about the toilets was also made worse because there were a lot of turbulence and the seat-belt sign kept being switched on. It meant no unnecessary moving about, including visiting the toilet. Sigh.
The only nice things about my flight to Sydney were that I managed to sleep for three hours and watched "Snow White and the Huntsman" and "Prometheus". My special non-carb diet was nice - apple salad (like wardolf salad from Soup Spoon) and boiled fish with tomato sauce and various vegetables and there's even a non-sweet jelly. :)
I arrived in Sydney at 7.30am, 10 minutes before ETA of 7.40am. Customs was a breeze and I was at my serviced apartment just before 9am. I will update the rest of 1 December on 1 December blog post.
