My Expectation to the Flight

My Expectation on my first flight

The upcoming Field trip Seminar to be held at the Manila on the 7^th day to the 11^th day of September makes me chills and truly excited because above all of the activities that we will do there during the seminars, it will be my first time to take on a plane flight.  Honestly, I don’t know what to expect on that first flight of mine because I don’t really have idea at all on what is the environment there inside the plane.  I have watched a lot of movies with many plane flight scenes and wish someday that I would ride one.  And here I am now, preparing myself to a new ground, the skies.

For the upcoming flight this September, one of my expectations is there will be a lot of new things that I will learn.  I may learn how the stewardess communicate and serve their plane passengers.  I also expect that they are all beautiful like what I am seeing in the James Bond movies.  I also expect that there will be a good accommodation of plane passenger, which they are ready to whatever might happen along the flight trip.  I admit that I was a bit scared and nervous to take the flight, I am afraid to any problem that might lead to accident but I do pray that nothing bad will happened, of course I don’t want to die so early because I still got a lot of things to do in the future.  Along the trip, I expect to get a good sit so that I could have a good view from the top to the lands.  It is one of my dreams to see how wide the world is from the bird’s eye view and I am very happy that this dream will come true this coming September.  I am excited to see the inner parts of the plane, to see the brilliant mechanical architecture.  I always wish that I want to go ride plane even just ones but the Lord is good, he granted me two rides of the plane back and forth.  I believe that my classmates were very excited too to take their first flight.  I am excited to take my first take off, a lift from gravity.  I am sure and believe that is it a kind of breath-taking experience for us first timers.  I just wish that I will not feel dizzy or something so that I can enjoy the whole flight.  I know that the flight will only take hours a two or three but I am sure that it will give us a whole new big experiences.  From watching the movies, I wonder how the stewards greet their plane passengers and teach them how to use the air bags or what will be the best thing to do if there is any problem that will occur.  All of these things are running inside my mind now.  I guess that I am just too happy, to happy to experience the first and the start of more coming trips.

I have asked some of my friends and relatives that already has an experience on riding a plane or taking a flight.  They said that it is just like riding a jeep but the twist is you are flying in the skies.  I said wooh! Is it real or just a made up?  But they said, I will have my own kind of experience when I read one of those planes.  I expect to have a good experience while riding the airplane, I really don’t know what to expect but riding must be a good taste of experience because I saw the emotion of my sister after her first plane flight.  I try not to be so rush but stay cool and keep calm. Of course, I don’t want to be some kind of ignorant to look like.  I swear and cross it to my heart that I will behave when I get inside the plane and will never make an action that will cause trouble to me and also to my classmates and facilitator.  I expect that I will learn a lot on this trip this coming September because I will meet a lot of people inside the plane, we don’t know, I might meet some foreigners inside the plane and eventually become my new friend.  I am also expecting to see a lot of Filipino’s in different culture along the flight.  I am excited to meet these types of people inside the plane during my flight.  I am excited to feel the height, I am afraid of height but I am willing to take this challenge.  I am excited to see how the clouds look like in near view from the top.  I want to see how the clouds look like when it starts to rain.  I am expecting that my seatmate who I think it will be my classmate will behave at the flight.  My colleague at the church told me that there will be some bumps along the flight due to turbulence she said that I must just close my eyes so that I will feel no fear and pray.  I really do hope that there will be no any accident along the flight.  Up until now after all those things that I have written starting from the top I still have no idea what would happen or what could happen on my first flight, deep in my heart I just wish and pray that it will all go right.  Yes I am afraid a bit not that much, well I guess that this is just normal.  I already expected this since I was in first year college.  I am excited on this upcoming trip because it will not become just a field trip instead it will be more like a business trip so it means that we will meet a lot of investors and professionals at the future.  I expect to meet an investor and I want to be near them so that I can observe how they judge an idea pitched by the students or professionals. 

I always expect that this flight is going to be awesome.  I am not sure if am I just expecting too much about this flight because there might be things that could happen that could make the flight ugly or some kind of not so fun.  Well I asked our Field Trip Seminar President Ron of what airline company plane we will take and he answered that it will be the Cebu Pacific airlines because it offers a lot of discounts and low-fairs.  It sounds good, so I decided to research the background of that airline company.

I expect that the airline company f the Cebu Pacific will have a good service towards its customers and I also expect that they will double check the airplane before releasing it into the runway to avoid any accidents.  I trust with all my heart this airline company, I entrust with then my life and also the lives of my classmates and facilitator that will come to the Field Trip and Seminar at the Manila City. 

I have read a lot of bad things in Manila City like it were not a good place for living or the crime rates are too high and the city is too polluted in many ways like air pollution and garbage pollution.  I am sure that my body will react to that new kind of environment but I will make sure to take care of myself so that I can prevent any sickness like fever or coughing.  I am sure that I am going to miss my beloved home town Davao City.  But of course I also know that there are a lot of places in Manila City that is worth visiting, so if we will have a chance to visit any of those places then I am glad to have some souvenir like pictures of t-shirts.

Our flight will be at dawn at 3am we should be at the new airport in Davao City located near Jose Maria Colleges.  I am sure that I can’t sleep or will have no sleep before the day of our flight due to the excitement that I feel, so I am expecting that somehow I will get some good sleep at the plane.  I expect that there will be a food to be served to us with delicious desserts or snacks.  I am expecting some beautiful stewardess that will assist us on our luggage; it is surely a shower of beauty moments; rock and roll, peace to the world.

I am expecting that nobody will ruin our flight because it will be all suck-up if there is someone will try to do stupid things.  I have watched a lot of movies wherein the airplane is the main center of topic just like the movie Flight Plan, Air Force One, Snakes on the Plane and Con-Air, all these movies has the same line of story wherein there is something bad that will happen along the plane flight.  I hope that none of these movie stories will happen during the flight on September 4 back and forth.  Well I guess that I am just over-thinking too much, I know that the Lord God almighty will protect me and all of my classmates and facilitator in our trip on the Field Trip and Seminar.  If ever there is any bad will happen then I just pray that the plane will not crash straight to the ground.

I will expect that I will get a whole new ride in my life when I take this flight and I believe that everything will come in smooth way.  I really don’t know what to expect about this upcoming flight to Manila City because I don’t know what will happen starting from the airport to riding the plane.  I think I must have to research about the system flow, the rules and regulation of the airport or anything related to the flight so that I will have enough knowledge when I go there.  I was used to of  riding a big boats like Super Perry since I was a child and I really don’t like the experiences because every time I ride a boat when I was a child is always vomit along the trip.  Luckily I got use to by riding barge when going to the Island Garden City of Samal for beach outing or vacation.  So I just expect now that I will not vomit inside the plane to avoid any shameful moments in life.  My mother is expecting also that I will vomit along the trip so she already has a plan to give me a lot of medicine to take before I take the flight.  I have witnessed a lot of goodbyes and sad separations at the airport during when my brother-in-law go to Qatar and make some fortune there and due to that I will expect that my mother will might make some crying moments before I take the flight but I will make sure that it will never happen because I will make her cry the night before the plane will take off.  I will expect that I will have a good seat and at least maybe a little bit near at the comfort room so that I will have easy access to their comfort rooms.  I will expect that I will not go to sleep along the flight so that I can really say that paying the twenty one thousand pesos plus is worth paying because that big amount of money is so hard to find during this days, I am just too thankful to my eldest sister that she shoulders all the expenses from the pocket money to everything; I am thankful that she loves me as her youngest brother.  I will expect that I am going to finish this two thousand words on what to expect on my first plane flight this coming month of September in our Field Trip and Seminar.
