Woohoo~! Just done making my booking with Airasia for flight back to Penang from JB on last day of Aug 2008. Ok, i know its still VERY long, but there is an promo offer going on! and the last day of is tomorrow.
For going trip, its RM$119 per person, so after airport tax, fuel surcharge and all misc, its RM$516 for 3 person (me, my mum, my bro). For return trip, its RM$0.66 per person, so after airport tax, fuel surcharge and all misc, its RM$156 for all 3 person only. Adding up the total, it costed less than $300SGD for us.. =D But if you notice, there is no infant included. Coz they require the particular of infant during the booking, i'll just gotta wait till Darrielle is out, then add in the infant via calling the call center.. Its only RM$15, no problem~
Its not really that troublesome to take Plane via Johore Bahru's airport since I'm living in Woodlands. After passing the custom, everything would be a breeze~ Just crossing my fingers, hoping everything would go smoothly that day.. and hey! Its going to be baby Darrielle 1st air flight! haha! Not bad not bad.. I seriously miss Penang and my relatives and food there.. and it will be the first meeting between my daughter and her uncles aunties and cousins.. =D

Certain is it that there is no kind of affection so purely angelic as of a father to a daughter.
In love to our wives there is desire; to our sons, ambition;
but to our daughters there is something which there are no words to express.

What I wanted most for my daughter was that she be able to soar confidently in her own sky, whatever that may be.

"When we trust the makers of baby formula more than we do our own ability to nourish our babies, we lose a chance to claim an aspect of our power as women. Thinking that baby formula is as good as breast milk is believing that thirty years of technology is superior to three million years of nature's evolution. Countless women have regained trust in their bodies through nursing their children, even if they weren't sure at first that they could do it. It is an act of female power, and I think of it as feminism in its purest form."

If a multinational company developed a product that was a nutritionally balanced and delicious food, a wonder drug that both prevented and treated disease, cost almost nothing to produce and could be delivered in quantities controlled by the consumers' needs, the very announcement of their find would send their shares rocketing to the top of the stock market. The scientists who developed the product would win prizes and the wealth and influence of everyone involved would increase dramatically. Women have been producing such a miraculous substance, breastmilk, since the beginning of human existence. ----- Gabrielle Palmer
