Chatty Flight #1

I did a stint abroad last month and I had to travel halfway across the globe for it. That was my longest flight so far, but and unfortunately it turned out to be another jaded flight. I thought all would be good, (not wrong, but a more natural way to say this would be 'everything would be fine') because I boarded at 8pm and I planned to sleep to burn up through the hours. So That way, by the time I wake woke up, I should would be nearing my destination. I was all wrong that I took it easy.

I travelled solo for a few days business and I felt ok (in writing, spell this out as 'okay'. 'ok' is the abbreviation.) until I was on board. I sat next to the window and found out that my fellow seat mates were older folks whose body bodies looked very weak ('who looked frail' sounds more polite!). I didn't expect the lady was to be very chatty, but she talked all the whole time during her waking hours she was awake,. she She preached told ('preached' carries a bit of a negative context, used like this. Even if you are thinking negatively of her, I wouldn't use 'preached' here.) me about her business trips back in the day and she said I reminded her of "young she her", . the worst part was that she repeatedly the same story, even when I drifted off as if she didn't want to let me sleep. Even Though I try tried to talk as few little as I could to show my disinterest in her, she kept on talking and made me feel I have had to respond and kept keep the conversation going.

The next After 4 hours she started to look exhausted, and within split seconds I put on my neck pillow and closed my eyes to sleep, until the strong turbulence shook my body (This sentence is very long. For proper writing, I would split it.  "I closed my eyes..." as a second sentence.). I was disappointed to find out that only one hour had passed. I couldn't sleep anymore because I felt I have needed to go to the toilet right now (Usually, we say 'go to the bathroom'.  'Right now' is present tense, and you are writing in past tense, so leave it out.). When I politely woke tried to wake the lady next to me up, I felt very hopeless, because she sleeps slept so soundly with snores. She wasn't didn't moved after my 5 minutes attempt of waking to wake her up to make way for me to toilet, and/ so (either of those choices work here) I had no choice but waiting to wait for help. A stewardess passed by and helped me wake her up. I was so relieved to be able to go to the toilet, but by the time I returned the lady slept too quickly was asleep again and I needed to call the stewardess again for help. That happened 3 times! What a flight!

~Nice job!
