I just want to say that the moment of realization Toni had was fucking inspirational. Like, she went from full gut-punched about her childhood dream getting shot down straight into realizing that literally nobody can stop her from doing it her own damn self. I truly hope I can find that energy within myself when I need it.

All I can say is...I visited my girlfriend for the first time in Australia this past summer and I was so incredibly impressed by Quantas airlines. Not only do they have extremely impressive and heartwarming ads, but they had the comfiest seats on any of the planes I had to take (3 different planes coming from Canada) and the biggest movie selection. Also love the long flight package with the blanket and toothbrush. I was very happy with Quantas. OH and I have to mention the in flight wifi for Australian flights! any flights within Australia (not overseas) have full wifi access! The whole time! I was able to play online chess with my girlfriend while on the plane from Perth to Sydney and it helped SO MUCH with having to say goodbye to her after being together for 2 months straight. I didn't feel completely cut off from her. Thank you Quantas
