Where to start..... It's been a while since I last updated my blog, sorry, I know! It has been up and down the last couple of weeks!
I am going to start by the positives ;)
I was meant to fly to Moscow, Russia on Monday the 22nd of July, so the night before the flight, they removed me from the flight and instead gave me home standby. I was not very pleased to say the least :P I was looking forward to my trip because I haven't been to Russia before.
I called my mom and my fiance to tell them my "devastating" news and they told me to calm down, nothing that I can do to change the situation. Easy for them to talk right :p Anyways and my dad emailed me to say that everything happens for a reason in life and that's what I should focus on. SOOOO.... Long story short, I got pulled out for a flight to Johannesburg instead :D Can you imagine my happiness and joy when I found out? I was over the moon with excitement, it was just what I needed, honestly. Have been feeling so home sick lately....
I am back in Dubai at the moment, recovered from my flight back from Johannesburg :P was very tired when I got to the flat, slept for hours and hours. It was lovely to see my family! My fiance finished work a little early on Tuesday, so him, myself and my sister met my dad for lunch which was so nice. I saw my mom for a bit and also got to spend some time with my dogs :) really it was the best feeling! Some other great news: I get to fly to Johannesburg again this coming Sunday :D
My roster for next month really isn't amazing. It was supposed to be my top bid month, but instead of giving me what I bid for, I got the worst roster since I started flying!! I have Moscow, Bangkok/Sydney trip which consists of 8 days, 3 turnarounds and Bangkok AGAIN at the end of the month. I also have leave in Aug, but trying to swap most of my roster for better flights, and a day off so that I can extend my leave.
We will see what happens in the next few days, will keep you posted ;)
