"Kat stop." Steph and i basically cried. We were about 4 hours into the 16 hour flight to Singapor airport. there we would stopover for 3 hours before an 8 hour flight to Manchester airport. Kat was watching a horror movie that i had no intention in knowing the name of but she had her screen tilted towards my seat and with Steph next to me we could both see what was happening, not to mention the fact she had the volume was rediculously loud. I desperatly wanted to change seats, being between these two was not great but the plane was pact and there was no where to go. I sighed, turning up the volume on the episode of Friends that i was watching and shuffling in my seat so i could turn my back to Kat as best as possible. I heard her chuckle and turn her screen back towards her before settling down and finishing it. I, however was asleep about 5 minutes later, woken only by Stephs pointy fingernail digging into my shoulder.
"Harper? Harpz?" i ignored her. "Food is coming." She said closer to my face this time, clearly knowing i was awake.
"You suck." I said before opening my eyes and turning my attention to the airhosteswho was unecesarily groomed and looking at me impatiently. "I'll have the one with the steak." i say.
"There isnt one with steak. We have Salmon, Chicken curry, or Thai beef salad." she replied annoyed.
"Is beef not steak?" i asked too rudely for Steph's liking and she elbowed me. She liked keeping everyone happy.
"Harper will have the salad." Steph said quickly. i turned, very purposfully rolled my eyes at her and then turned back to grab the dish from Emelie, her name badge informed me. Eww. I again made a point of rolling my eyes and pointing to a can of coke sitting on her trolly. She raised her eyebrow and placed her hands on her hips. I looker her up and down. No boobs, no butt, dead hair and bug eyes. No wonder she is angry at the world.
"Do i need to get it myself?" i asked, already reaching across Kat and grabbing it. She smiled tightly before pushing her cart away. Kat and i dissolved into giggles while Steph tried to stand her ground and thought about giving me a lecture on being nice. But she lost he battle with her reasoning and joined us laughing as we lifted the lids on our meals. Kat got the curry which i thought was brave while Steph and i opted for the beef salad. Once the charming Emelie had come back and collected our plates and drinks we placed out tray tables in the up right position and chose a movie,Finding Nemo We all pressed play at the same time on our seperate TV's but fell asleep before they found Nemo.

14 hours into the flight i was about to cry. Steph was snoring and Kat was back to her list of horror movies. Emelie had just handed me a mountain dew after informing me there was no coke or lemonade left and i had watched all the movies i was remotely interested in that were on the list. I sighed, clicking on the music tab on my small screen and different genres popped up. I clicked on the 'new' one and was taken to page filled with bands i actually knew. I searched for a playlist but all they had were full albums so i chose Ed Sheeran and clicked on Iggy Azalea for up next. I turned the volume up and closed my eyes, placing the straw from my can of MD in my mouth and folding my knees against the chair in front. But i didnt fall asleep. Kat was watching The shining and kept jumping and grabbing my arm and Steph had effectively managed to stretch out accross her seat and me. I sighed again and placed a tissue on my jeans where her mouth threatened to drool and turned to watch the rest of the movie with Kat.

2 and half hours later and we were on solid ground though. The heat of the singapor airport was rediculous and we all raced with our hand luggage to the bathroom to change. i put on black and white patterned pants and a black top, keep the same shoes while getting my hair off the back of my neck twisting it into a bun. Steph, now fully awake put on simple denim shorts and a grey crop tee while Kat followed her lead with a simialr gray shirt and black skirt. We left the bathroom in a fit of giggles after Kat got lipgloss in her ponytail and we headed off to do as much shopping and eating as we could in three hours, the hole time cringing at the thought of another flight.
