Medical Examination.

as promised to my fellow friends by me. now i will try to post my experience during my medical checkup for my pilot training.
for most of you all out there who is wondering what this is all about, medical checkup or also known as medical exam is one way way of determining how fit you are to fly. if u have a very bad heart condition, there is no way the doctor will have you airborne. get it?

the medical checkup is divided into several sections or tests if i may say so.

1. urine test.
2. x- ray.
3. eye test.
4. audiogram. (hearing test)
5. interview with the doctor. (which includes testing your body response, pulse reading, sets of question related to ur health life, another eye test, and some basic checkups)
6. electro-cardiogram. (send waves of electricity to measure the beat rate of ur heart. the results are later then shown on a graph chart.)
7. done!!.

well honestly, i dont remember much about the day i went for my checkup except... i was really really nervous. yeap the first thing that crossed over my mind was.. ' what if i fail this test?' owh dear.. the 'what if' questions are all over me again.. but theres no way of telling me if i am fit to fly or not unless i take the test ryte?

and so i did. i took it on the 22th of october last year. made an appointment with the doctor a couple of days earlier. owh i am sorry, i forgot to tell you where i took it. ahahaha silly me. i took it at Malaysia Airlines System (MAS) medical centre. you can look up for it on the address below.

MAS Medical Centre (Subang, Selangor)
Sultan Abdul Aziz International Airport
47200 Subang, Selangor Darul Ehsan
Tel: 603 7840 3114 Fax: 603 7846 2626.

i came there around 10 am with my mom and wasted 10 minutes upon searching for complex B. yeah MAS complex is kinda big so u have to move around to explore the unfamiliar territory. after we have found the complex, now its a matter or searching for the medical centre.. kudos to MAS upon providing visitors with various signboard to make life easier.

upon arriving to our destination.. we were greeted by a few nurses on the reception desk. very tender they are. hahaha. i was ask to fill up a form regarding my personal informations but they purposely didnt give me a pen just to test my awareness of the process.. but still. thats what mums are for. =).
i borrowed a pen from mum and then one of the nurses saw me and said 'ai? nak gune pen pon pinjam mak ke?, cmne nak jadi pilot ni?' .i shook my head down and continued onto filling up the form. hahahaha malu wehhh. my mom giggled upon my embarrassment. well im glad someone is having a blast. ekkkkeke.

after i submitted the form to one of the nurses..she asked me to sit and wait for my turn. my eyes quickly shifted into 'searchlight mode' where i will observemy new surroundings in hope of stumbling upon something interesting. and of course i did!. there was alot of peeps that day doing their medical checkups..i can see LAE's (licenced aircraft enngineer), TAME's (aircraft maintenance engineer trainee) and a few stewardess as well.

i went through those test with anxiety apart from being bloody nervous about something that might be wrong with me.. any disease that i might not knw of..who knows?
but in the end.. here's what the medical certificate looks like.


and if any of you there got any doubts and questions regarding this topic. feel free to reach me. i will help you as much as i can.
till then~~.

My Valentines. <3

so u ll must be pretty upset about me not telling who that person up there is huh?
well to tell ya the truth..she was the one where i get most of my inspirations from.but note this..i did not admit aniting to u guys out there about this special girl so don't make any assumptions or what so ever aite? she has been my crush for almost three years now.

why i did not tell her how i feel about her? well its kinda complicated at that time but i don't need to explain things to u. up until now.. i don't want to bother her with her studies and second of all, one of our most excruciating fears one admirer can get, rejection.

lemme tell u abit more about this girl.shes practically my age.intelligent, brilliant, charismatic, beautiful, pretty aggressive tho, and quite the character too.believe me..once u've laid ur pair of eyes on her, this will go differently henceforth. =).

well that is just the outside that we're talking about.in the inside...ever wonder how your future wife will be?buzz off...shes not like dat. haha. u will knw it once u get to know her better.IF ure lucky that is.we shall refer her as L from now on.curious?dont be..ever heard of curiosity kill the cat?ure the cat..and I'm the one who's gonna kill ya. ehehe.

well here's a little bit of history between me and her.sad history actually.tell me I'm kind enough to share my sweet and sour memories with u.well i met L in a tuition centre apparently. haha its a very popular tuition centre here in Klang. its called *** *****. =).
that time i was still single and available.and well,u know..young blood always wander around in the cities looking for something..or someone new. but hey i went for tuition to study.now to wander or laze around wasting my precious time and my parents money..L came for class abit late that day..and yeah i gazed my eyes upon such beauty for the first time that day..owh ya L is not the kind of person in which dress to kill is a necessity. its tuition for gods sake..not a wedding ceremony. L barged into the classroom with a rush knowing that the teacher is going to be quite grumpy and the fact that she is shy with the other upon her late arrival.
well mates?do u believe in love at first sight? i don't. but i do believe in an emotional condition whereby a person feels romantic attraction for a stranger on the first encounter with the stranger. The term may be used to refer to a mere sexual attraction or crush, but it usually refers to actually falling in love with someone literally the very first time one sees him or her, along with the deep desire to have an intimate relationship with that person. The stranger may or may not be aware that the other person has any such notion, and may not even be aware of the other person's presence (such as in a crowded place). Sometimes two people experience this phenomenon towards each other at the same time, usually when their eyes meet.(source = wikipedia). in which this exactly how she looks like during our first encounter.

lady in red.
red = Liverpool!

well?got a glimpse at what coming for ya? haha then as u all know..im a very shy guy..and i don't get along with strangers very well(especially girls). i don't know how to talk to a girl in a proper 'ice-breaking' way.i swallowed my feelings right down to my guts and move on with my life. a few days passed by and i was giving up hoping that one day L will come and say hi to me (most of the girl there does). that's what i told u before..L is different from the others.

but,even if i have the guts to say hi to her..i don't know what else to say to her ahahaha get the picture?but eventually we did say hi to each other. man am i glad we did. =). we talked ALOT and got to know each other better. one more thing i like about her was her fluency and adequateness in english.. up until now.. chick with english fluency really turns me on hahahaha. believe me.. u don't want to interrupt our conversation because we pretty much use different foreign accents to compete with one another.. which eventually puzzles everyone who heard us talking.

after we ended our schooling days..we kept each other informed about how we've been doing these days via friendster and after we got our SPM results..L decided to continue her studies in a profession which L loves (i think) and after several years..she will be flying to JAPAN to further extend her knowledge there.i made a promise to myself. that one day. i will personally find L by hook or by crook and let her hear out my confessions of what i have been saving for her for the very last time. i know...L is going to be pretty shocked about it. but what ever her reactions would be after that, i don't really care about it ryte now.. all i wanted to do is to confess and tell what i want her to know what i felt. that's it. and so L, you are my valentines today and u will always be my valentines. <3.

Happy Valentines day. <3

wish me luck guys.
and L, i really really miss you.
because of you, HEART WITH WINGS is born and will continue to fly until it finally reach its destination.

to all readers, im sorry to have wasted ur precious time reading this post. but its important for me and...wtf?screw you!!!.

until then~~.bye!

i told you..shes quite the foxy lady.the sneaky characteristic that she's got within her just completes the package.

i'm sorry.i lied.they are still arguing on this time.haha

lastly to my friend and future colleague faiz..i am sorry bro.coz it didn't turn out like u imagined it would be but u gotta admit..they are three sexy foxes ryte?
(padan muka hang gatai sangat.amik sejibik!!.lukena beb.haha.)

=P

Flash from the Past.

well tch yeah i would like to share with all of u guys my experiences and efforts when i got the crazy idea of becoming a pilot.
its always my pleasure to help and share things with other people.
information that is.
=).

This time i will share with u guys the day that i went for my Asia Pacific Flight Training interview which is held on the 7th of May 2008.

i got the letter roughly around 2 weeks before the interview was held but the date on the letter said that the letter was released around 4 weeks earlier.
weird huh?wonder whose fault is that.

and so, with no time to spare..i began my preparations for the interview.my feeling of excitement and anxiety soon became sour with the mix emotions of fear and doubtfulness.but i kept my heart strong all the way so that i may prove to certain people that this is where i am going to stand firm on.
without further a due, i searched high and low about the latest aviation news that i can get my hands on.
until i stumbled upon this forum where there are a lot of info's regarding the aviation industry which includes ALL of the professions related to this field.
its a very interesting forum..you guys should check it out once in a while.

and so..with a little bit of research done..there is one more thing to do.PRAY.even though u are the smartest person on earth..if the force up there says 'no go'.its definitely a no-no to u.so be thankful to what ever u have now because as we all know..it is all because of HIM.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and so the day day that we all have been waiting for has arrived..or should i call it, the judgement day?now that is absurd,really.
my sis was suppose to pick me up and drive me all the way to Damansara but it looks like there has been a little mix up here.my mom thought the letter says the interview was at 1 pm.it turns out that the letter stated that all candidates must report at approximately 1000 hrs which is equivalent to 10 am!!!!.I've been ready since 8 o'clock and i thought my mom was joking when she said i was excited to go there because i was all dressed up early that day.
so i called my sister (luckily she was awake that time) and asked her to pick me up now..its already 9 and i was worried that i wont make it in time.remember guys...punctuality is REALLY important in any meetings,dates..and as for this one, appointments.
ahem, my sister rushed back home to fetch me and in 20 Min's, we are off to Damansara.For the guys out there...don't try and challenge my big sis drag racing..trust me.u will regret it ahaha.a journey that normally takes around 1 hour became like 25 Min's only.no shit!!!!.

And so we finally reached our destination.with no time to spare (as the clock shows its 5 Min's after 10) i rushed into the building where APFT HQ is like a mad cow on strike and soon reached the fifth floor.when pushed the door to the office, everyone was outside waiting for something and i don't know what it is...i saw a name list on the door of the office and i quickly browsed my name on it.EUREKA!..there it is.!!.i asked around the folks there to know whether if the interview has started yet or not.i took a long deep breath when i found out that nobody has been called in yet.that means i am not late :).
after a while my sister showed up.

ed : eh sis i thought u got class today?

sis : no la..i made sure that i am free today because i wanted to accompany you to this interview.
you are my beloved brother what..

ed : okay cut the crap..what the hell do you want from me?

sis : how could you!!.say that to your own flesh and blood..after u're rich, buy me one Nissan
Celica.
=).

ed : i knew it..ure gonna ask me that damn question sooner or later..zzzz fine.i'll buy you one..one
day,when you get married.as my wedding present for you.okay?no more.

sis : okay..i know you love me. =)

ed : tch..what the hell..and don't worry..she will be back for more..trust me. haha.

after about 30 Min's of agonizing long wait..we were called in by the registrar to enter the office and then enter the briefing room for some sort of...exposure to the flying academy.most of the candidates came by themselves..some with their parents and this one guy came with his PLKN uniform on (bersemangat gilerrrr).kudos fr him.
we were presented with a movie..or should i say a slideshow projected by the LCD projector which took us about 15 Min's from the beginning of the show.after that we were asked to comfort ourselves in a meeting room which was later on being used for the interview.that is where i first saw Mejar Khalid.not bad for an old guy.aaahahahahaha.well he told us much about everything we need to know about the academy fr now and then he asked whether we have any questions or not.i have a lot of questions that i wanted to ask him but then again..i don't want to bore him,the other candidates and the parents about my sharp,ridiculous questions.

after that we had to wait outside the meeting room where the real 'torture' starts..yes,we have to wait again.now we are waiting for our turn.i made quite a number f friends there.although our schools, idealism, and race differ,we could still have a chat about the one thing that we all have the passion for...FLYING.my sister also made a new friend with one of the parents there.at first i thought it was her friends..that she knows the lady..but she told me they have just met.and i quickly became friends with her son.

after the second candidate went in..the registrar told the others that they must have a basic knowledge about aviation and about APFT when suddenly..one of the parents stood up and said,'how can our son know about all that?'..a stupid question indeed.yes i know how the father wants to help his 'clueless' son but i am sorry to say...the son himself does not qualify to be a pilot as his appearance totally wrecks the whole first impression stuff.get it?
hahahaha.

i had quite a chat with his dad..they are from Singapore.came all the way here to attend the interview...haiyoh uncle..i pity you very much leh..i really do..but look at ur son?is that how a pilot looks like?he didn't even bring a tie with him?this is a an interview fr god's sake..now his father was the one who asked around for someone to lend his son their necktie..and the son was just sitting on the chair getting his arse all warmed up.what a dickhead.

lets cut the chase now shall we?I've noticed that i am writing a lot from just now..well i just wanted u all to see/experience things the way i did.
well I'm up.its my turn now..no turning back.
as i entered the room.......there were 2 panels there consists of MK himself and the registrar.
p/s : i was smiling throughout the whole interview.

*close the door*

ed : may i have a seat, sir?

MK : yes, yes please have a seat...now then ******, tell us more about yourself.

ed : well..my name is ................................................................................................................................
................(told them a lot about myself)..............................................................

MK : owh okay. good. so tell me, how does a helicopter fly?

ed : uh??*with a smile on my face* a helicopter, sir?(owh shit i am sooo dead...i wanted to be an
aircraft pilot..not a chopper pilot..owh **** how the hell am i gonna answer this shit?)

ed : can i make a guess, sir?( i knew i picked up this line somewhere in the web)

MK : sure, go on ahead.

ed : well a helicopter has...........................which generates force (always refer/relate to Bernoulli's
principle) and then lifts up the heli off the ground.

MK : very good son..so it says here that u were born in Johore Bahru.am i right?

ed : yes u are sir.

MK : so tell me then, if i am a tourist from Germany and you are my tourist guide....please
explain to me about the interesting 'hotspots' there that you have in Johore.

ed : *grinned* (ahahah this very easy.i know JB like it was on the back of my palm.too cocky
eh?well I'm gonna get screwed.big time.)..well in Johore..they have...bla bla bla bla la.

*in the middle of the 'tourist's guide' excitement*

MK : ok stop!. i know la your english is good..but you talk too fast. like a NEPALESE. i am afraid
that the radio tower will nt understand your transmission later.(he's got a point there)

ed : *heads down* owh.i am very sorry sir. i promise you that will never happen again. thank
you sir.

MK : so who is going to finance your study?

ed : m...my father, sir.ahahahah obviously i was lying about that.there is no way my dad is going
let it happen.owh but he will.its just that i don't want to trouble him.

MK : okay,very good..congratulations,, please wait for your psychomotor test.

ed : thank you, sir.*big fat smile all the way to the exit*

aahahah so thats about it..my experience during my interview with them.extending huh?i know.
:).some of the guys had negative responses from the panels..so MAKE SURE YOU TAKE NOTE OF THIS :

a) do come here prepared..prepared for the worst as u may not know what will be next for u.

b) brush up on your english..even dummies know about this no english, no go.

c) dress smart.remember!, an interview is a formal event.so dress appropriately and completely.

d) tidy up your hair.make sure you cut your hair short and use gel/wax to keep em tidy.

e) relax.talk around with the other candidates.you will feel less tensed.

f) make sure you eat before you went fr the interview.going with an empty tummy might give
you a really bad day.it will affect your performance too.

g) don't get too cocky.look what i got?

h) always address the panels as sir or ma'am.it will show how much we respect them.and how
disciplined/polite we are.

i) shake hands with the panels?if u have the chance to do so.

j) always smile..remember..1st impression is ALWAYS important.

GOOD LUCK TO YOU GUYS.

p/s : to all who attend the same interview as i did..i am the tall/smart guy wearing all black with
a maroon tie. haha.
