You gotta love the Shanghai people

Posted in Uncategorized at 9:30 pm by andreasenka

What can happen when you are boarding for Toronto? Right after this flight was the Shanghai flight on the same gate. It can be pretty crazy when you constantly have to explain -to Chinese people who totally don’t understand English- that they are in the right place, ‘but not for another hour, we’re boarding for Toronto now, you still have 45 min, please come back around 2 o’clock, nooo not boarding now unless you wanna go to Canada, yééés in one hour, lots of time to go shopping, yes this is the right gate, yes to Shanghai -here- but later, I’ll write it on your boarding pass..’ ‘boadin paas?!’ I’ve said it all, heard it all.. for real. Try to keep smiling, don’t lose your patience and stay friendly! A passenger for Toronto witnessed it all and complimented me. He was amazed that I kept on smiling and didn’t lose my mind. It was a good day.

Carl’s Journey

Posted in Uncategorized at 1:45 pm by andreasenka

Today one of our best friends left for more than five months. He is flying to Hongkong.. as we speak. His journey includes places like Bangkok, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia etc. Lesley and I worked this morning, so we could say goodbye at the gate! While grabbing a bite, he was stressing about the boarding time. “Calm down C, you’ll make it. They give an early boarding time to make sure the passengers are on time at the gate.” Although he even worked on Schiphol for a long time, it was obvious he was a -real- passenger, including all the stress that comes along with it. We laughed, made a lot of picts and said goodbye.. for now

lets go to sleep in Paris and wake up in Tokyo

Posted in Uncategorized at 8:15 am by andreasenka

♫
superstar
hip hop saved my life
paris tokyo
wonder woman
hi-definition
missin’ you
clumsy
intruder alert
hello goodbye
amazing (thin white duke main mix)
cant help but wait
tears dry on their own
miscommunication
sensual seduction
suffocate
*
*
hello darkness
hello sunshine
hello not at all
hello all the time
hello nowhere
hello oblivion
hello goodbye
*
all in together the weather is better then ever
i hope it never ends i hope it lasts forever
but when it does we can all pretend that its better than its ever been
lie to ourselves like the sky to rebel
and its well and its fine and its fine if it fell
and you couldn’t find the story line if you survive to retell
we are targets hello darkness
*

he said, I write what I see
write to make it right, don’t like what I be
i like to make it like the sights on TV
quite the great life so nice and easy
see now you can still die from that
but it’s better than not being alive from straps
agreed, a mead notebook and a bic that click when its pushed
and a whack ass beat
that’s a track thats weak that he got last week
’cause everybody in the studio’s like that’s that heat
a bass-heavy medley with a sample from the 70s with a screwed up hook
that went “stack that cheese”
somethin somethin somethin “stack that cheese”
mother sister cousin “stack that cheese”
he couldn’t think of nothin’ “stack that cheese”
he turns down the beat, writer’s block impedes
cryin’ from the next room a baby in need of some pampers
and some food and a place to sleep
that plus a black cadillac on D’s
is what keep him on track to be a great emcee
yeah

one you never heard of i
push it hard to further the
grind i feel like murder but
hip hop just saved me
one you never heard of i
push it hard to further the

hip hop just saved my life
