Bad Bee. Bad Bee.

Everyone seems to be talking about exams nowadays. Well, you can’t blame them since exam is just around the corner. Currently I am revising for Principles of Marketing and Management with a bee hovering in front of me (well, actually, I am typing this entry). Not a very conducive environment indeed, I must say. For some strange reasons I seem to attract five bees into my room this week alone. It is amazing to see how these bees can take just 2 seconds to come into my room and the whole day to get out. Why is it so difficult for them to find the window to fly out of my room remains a mystery to me.

Here I am staring at the bee and keep telling it to go to the right, where the window is. Sometimes, I even wonder whether it is the same bee everyday or not.

Speaking of which, (not totally related but bees do remind me of airplanes) AirAsia is going to sign a new sponsorship $5.6million deal with Manchester United (as in the football club). To be honest, I don’t really see the connection between a low cost airline, which operates ONLY in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and China and an English football club. In case you don’t already know, Malaysia and the UK are 10561km (6000miles) apart.

If anyone can tell me the rationality behind all this, I am more than happy to hear from you.

Another thing about AirAsia is the fares keep creeping up ever since the government told Malaysia Airlines (MAS) to cease its domestic supersavers fares. Of course the fares are still cheaper than MAS, but they are not cheap as before. There you have it, a story of a bee and an airline company who wants to be Manchester United official low cost airline. And yes, the bee is still hovering in front of me. I’d better hide under the blanket before I get stung. Ciao.

ANYWAY, can someone tell me what's the connection between 5 bees in a room finding it hard to get the hell out of keste's room and airasia.

maybe you should keep your window close so that airasia will decrease the fares? lol

I can't close the window because my room will be a little bit too warm. And I need some air OK.

The connection between the bees and AirAsia is both can fly :P

Hmm...thanks Izzat. I'll take note of that :)

I've checked with AirAsia's website and it seems that the number of passengers have grown when they began to sponsor MU. But, the increase could be fueled by a bunch of a higher capacity A320.

Anyway, glad to know that there are people who actually have some opinion on this.
