Columbia to Cessna

The auction was held yesterday. And today, it's official. I'm no longer working for Columbia Aircraft anymore.. new name, new look; Cessna Aircraft.
I feel a little intimidated. Transaction from a 400-employees-company to a 15,000-employees-company makes me feel awkward and scared. The new owner will have a lot of expectations, or should I say impossible expectations. Huh...I need to start and fire up my brain.
We had a company lunch earlier today. The president of Cessna was here at our company giving his speech. His speech was very comforting, and very very business oriented. I must admit that he's one articulate man. For once, I have a very good feeling that the company is moving to the right direction.
For myself I still have some doubts that the new owner will retain me. I don't know...I just don't have the confidence. I think I have wasted my 2 years doing hardly anything. Zuhri keeps convincing me that without realizing it, I've gained experiences like many others.
OK OK positive thinking. Here's the start point to move forward..big company, big challenge, big $, vast experience waiting.

T-Day Trip

Finally it was the Thanksgiving week, I was so excited I couldn't sleep the night before. Been busy packing stuffs and cleaning here and there. Our flight departed at 8.20 am, but we went to the airport right after Subuh pray. Alhamdulillah we didn't have any problems along the way, just that the weather was so cold. It was snowing the day before, so no wonder..


My happy and sleepy face :D


Our plane: Midwest Airlines. We got a pretty good deal. $550 for 2 tickets.



The waiting area was almost vacant. Nobody wanted to be here on the Thanksgiving Day, except us!

We changed flight at Milwaukee, WI around noon, and finally arrived at Pittsburgh Airport at 2.50 pm. Ayah Amin, Luqman and Hamzah were there to pick us up, then we went straight to Indiana.

We didn't eat turkey until the next day for lunch (after black friday crazy shopping).




Happy faces..


And here was my plate. Yum yum yum...

It took 2 days to finish all the 20 lbs turkey. And the only thing remain was the wishbone. This time, it was Amin and Muhsin's turn to see who would get their wish.


Amin fought for his half wishbone.


And he fought again... and he finally got his wish!!! :)


On Saturday, we went to State College, just because it was 2 hours away from Indiana. We just did some more shopping over there, bought some Penn State merchandises, some clearance clothings and other stuffs. We also went to the Penn State Creamery to buy ice creams, but it was closed. No luck.


Me and Hana. I bought this dress for Hana, and Amin bought her the teddy bear (for her birthday present). Bye bye Indiana, see ya next year insya Allah!
