Well, that’s an intering question. In my lifetime I had to wait for a long time in different time period. Uh, whenever uh, I see the co question then I remember about one month ago, uh, at that moment I had to uh, catch my brother at the Pokara International, the airport. And I had not uh, went here earlier so that I have to arrive very um, early at the time. So um, whenever my brother lived from the Kathornu airport I uh, began to go to Pohar Intern International Airport and I reached there ten, about half hours, uh, earlier due um, to the delay in plane. M. My brother um, got arrived uh, later. So that at the time I really became frustrated. So that uh, to overcome my level of frustration I enjoy the nature and even I enjoy the uh, decoration of the Pokhar International Airport. Um, I spen my time de by roaming here and there, uh, seeing the beautiful lights and the facilities around the Pokara International airport. And the most fascinating thing about uh, that place is that the sound of the airplane when they landed then it uh, creates a different level of sound which I have been trolling over my uh, childhood. So after um, being uh, about half hour there, my brother finally arrived there and I share my own experience about, about the time delay and how I spen my uh, time to catch my brother. And he literally uh, said me to me a sorry, but um, I don’t have to wait for my brother only it gave me an opportunity to learn about different kinds of things around the airport and I’m over the moon, uh, to learn about that facilities and I think I don’t um, uh, I don’t forgot uh, that day because uh, it was the most memorable day in my entire life.

That's an interesting question. I've had to wait for a long time in different situations throughout my life. One instance that comes to mind happened about a month ago. I had to pick up my brother from Pokhara International Airport. I wasn't familiar with the airport, so I arrived very early to be sure I wouldn't miss him. My brother's flight was delayed, so I ended up waiting for about half an hour. I was initially frustrated, but I decided to make the best of it. I explored the airport, admiring the decorations and the beautiful scenery. The sound of the airplanes landing was fascinating, a sound I hadn't heard since my childhood. After about half an hour, my brother finally arrived. I shared my experience of the delay and how I spent my time waiting. He apologized for the inconvenience, but I told him that the wait wasn't a complete waste. It gave me a chance to learn about the airport and its facilities. I was actually quite happy to have had that experience. It was a memorable day, one I won't soon forget.
