Today's CAAS exam was somewhat a breeze after 6 weeks of cramming. It is a 3:30hr paper that ended about noon, so the bunch of us had lunch in Changi. Alan and I had to rush back because Colin wanted to fly with me for the 1.30pm slot, the wind conditions at the time was rather turbulent for me, but he had confidence in me that I'd be able to pull it off and sent me for solo! I was College Charlie Delta! I had a total of 10 minutes alone in the plane! The adrenaline, the excitement! I now am able to walk and stand tall for I am a PIRATE!
Thank God I landed safely, because during finals 100 ft agl the wind sort of blew me off unstable. My judgment was off, my mind was set to land and I did. It wasn't a good landing, no screeching landings, still Colin congratulated me on the ground, and gave me a can of beer for my milestone. I really felt I had more to learn, more to brush up on, I wanted him to teach me more. I will ask him again after my ATPL exams. He is a good instructor though his methods were peculiar. With perseverance and diligence one will be able to do it under him. Thank God again, and all my friends who supported me and kept me in their prayers.
In the evening we went to Sunset to have the legendary level 30 buffalo wings. Super spicy, just touching level 10 wings burns your skin. Level 30 made my eyes teary just by sniffing. Eating one will give you 30 minutes of torture for the burn in your throat and tongue. Then later in the day it spreads the stomach, cramp for hours that felt like a serious gastric. I couldn't walk straight. Ouch. I think my stomach has a hole in it now. Can't imagine level 35.
