My first ever long haul flight!

Time flies! It's already June, halfway through 2015 and I have successfully endured a quarter of my LDR (Long Distance Relationship). Still 3/4 more to go wtf, doesn't sound very encouraging.
Honestly, I was surprised at how fast time passes o.o This was the two years that I have been dreading for the longest time but when the time really came, it was not as bad as I have expected. Sure, we had our quarrels and uncertainty (most of the time it's just me lah -_- I feel damn bad) but I agree that distance make the heart grow fonder??

Just one fine day, I decided that I could take a mini two weeks break from work and fly to US to meet Gary T_T
It was a very last minute decision and I feel abit bad lah cause I had a Taiwan trip with my parents in early May then I take leave again to go US -.- In between I was on study leave to prep for exams so I literally did not work for the whole month LOL.


SQ was having a promotion so I flew by SQ from Singapore-Moscow-Houston then flew United Airlines to Pensacola.
It sure was a longggggg flight. I took about 30 hours to reach there, including layovers.


 My first solo long haul. Damn pathetic! Had to sit on the floor cause all the seats were occupied and gates wasn't open yet.


Ok I admit I quite boliao, keep taking pictures inside the plane lol.


Love the in-flight meals! The portion is a little bit too big but it's really yummy!


Stopped over at Moscow. Had some difficulties figuring out how to get to the transit area and it doesn't help when the airport staff just ignore me -_- Idk why???? But they really just stared at me with a damn pissed off face and ignore my question wtf. I AM NOT FROM CHINA OK -_-


Flight from Moscow to Houston was very empty so I had the whole row to myself woohoo! Made my bed on the plane :D



Finally!!!! My last flight to Pensacola, where my flight delayed for 1.5hours >_<
I was really looking for a hair salon hopefully cause my fringe damn oily after 24 hours in the air omg. I went to the toilet and try to wet my fringe and stuck my head under the hand dryer to dry it and everyone gave me a very judgmental look wtf. WHAT! Hair never oily before is it -_-


A random shot at Houston Airport


Landed at Pensacola at 7pm!

I was expecting like a really touching scene where I come out of the gate and then I see Gary and we hug each other. Ok I watch too much drama but seriously I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT.

In reality, I went to the washroom first and then went out to get my luggage. 
As I was walking there, I walk past the entrance (wasn't expecting the airport to be so small) and just nice Gary walked in so I called him. The first thing he said to me was "Eh help me go out and watch my car cause I'm not suppose to park outside. I'll help you get your luggage!" 
-proceeded to throw me the car keys-

Our airport pick up ended on a very unromantic note lol


I didn't experience any jet lags in US probably because I'm too excited about everything lolol.
Successful first alone long haul ._.
