12 Day in India

[ 在印度的第十二天 ]

MC still today, nothing much to do still, watching movie again, till my eyes so tired and I took a walk to the balcony. Then I caught this..





See, I wasn't lie okay. It's really so hazy and dusty here.

I felt it's really amazing that they are able to live under such condition.
Hm.. Probably they just have no choice, but to accept the fact.
Have to learn to survive anyhow.

People, do cheerish what we are having now.

11 Day in India

[ 在印度的第十一天 ]

Was on MC, stayed at home the whole day. Doing nothing but sleep, and watch movies, then cook dinner for my fellow colleagues. Hehe.. Come to think of it, I never really cook for daddy, don't know what's his reaction to be if he know this?


(L) Fried ladies finger and red carrot with soy sauce.
(R) Stew dry mushroom, potatoes, and chicken.

This is the first time I ever cook this dishes. Luckily it's eatable..
*sweat..

Doctor visiting in India

[ 印度看病记]
Finally, I can't stand the suffering, and went to doctor yesterday. Shivam Hospital, located quite near to my office. It's a very small hospital, so different from M'sia's. The doctors here are very patience, they asked about your illness very patience, analyze it and explain to you.

The procedure s slightly different too. First, you will have to register yourself at the reception counter there, and pay RS200(RM20) for the doctor's consultancy fees. Next, wait for your turn to be called into the doctor's room. After examined, take the card with your illness descriptions and the medicine description to another counter to get your medicine. There, take your medicine and pay for the medicine.

Well, the medicine are rather cheap here. I was assigned 3 day's medincine. One for antibiotic, one for sorethroat, one for flu, and another one for cough. This all cost me only RS110(RM11).

Lastly, bring everything back home with you, including the examination card. So next time, make sure you bring along the examination card with you.

Dream about Mama

[ 梦见妈妈 ]

Can't really sleep well recently, ever since I'm here in India. Probably without his hug at night, or the sense of security been lost, or hm.. it's his smell that i lost?

And it's getting worse this two days, when I'm badly cough. Used to wake up in the middle of the night just to cough.

I thought it was due to the coolness of the room, I didn't on the heater. So, I purposely on the heater before I sleep yesterday. But still, I come awake. And, I even dream about mama. May be I miss her too much now.

It's been a very very long time since my last dream about mama. When I saw her yesterday, I was really happy. Mama never forget about me, she came to me. =)

Mama been so spoiled me all the while. When I was at secondary, we are the two who been left home all the time. Untill I came to KL to further my study only we apart.

Mama caught lots of illness during her young age. Diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure.. Almost everything.

Soon later after I grad, mama went to stay with my brother in Singapore. Well, the medical consultation there is much better compared to Malaysia, and they provide better services too. I personally believed it is a good idea for her to stay there, to get better cares.

Unfortunately, she didn't manage to get over it. She gone in April, 2005.

I had never dream about her since she gone, just heard from sister that they dream about her once a while. Then I was thinking, how come mama never come to me? Has she forgotten me? Has she ignored me? I was really upset about it though.

Anyway.. Mama I hope you are well wherever you are. Atleast, you are free of the illness now, don't have to go thru all the suffering stage now. If there is really reincarnation, I hope you already went into it, and starting a new life now. Wherever you are, whatever you are, I do hope you leads a better life.

Galeria Gurgaon, India

[ Galeria, 印度 ]

Yesterday we went to a market here, called Galeria. Need to buy some groceries actually, and need to do some money exchange, also my colleague need to get a local phone card. But when we reached there, the money exchanger been closed, the mobile service provider shop also been closed. Actually many shops been closed, luckily we still able to get some meats, hm, chicken to be precised.

Galeria is a small market here, still, there are many shops here though.


Things are really expensive here, especially those imported. A small size Marmite costs RS115(RM11). And, the other day I went to a small counter that sell cigarrates and snacks near by office. Guess what, a sweet cost RS1(RM0.10). But, the Lay's here are cheap, only RS20(RM2). Well, ofcourse I will buy it! Grab few packs into my basket, haha..



After the groceries, we walk around to spot for our dinner to be. But didn't see any attractive restaurant, so we just simply went into one, that seems like not bad. And, well, we got cheated.

Chefree, well actually from the name we should knew. Food here are those ready-packed, instant food. It's just like those we can find in supermarket that we just put into microwave and 'ding', it's ready to eat. Frankly, for such food, with such price, it's rather expensive.









After settled our dinner, we call the driver to check if he is here, and if he still remember us. =| Then he told us he is doing something elsewhere, will come and pick us after 45 minutes. So, no choice, we just walk around the place, again.

Then, we found this shop, a funny shop. It's sort like a combination of few stalls, one for pop-corn, one for sweet-corn, one for hot-dog, and the other one for the famous Gelato ice-cream.





45 minutes actually a very hard to spend time, seeing the weather and environment here. Plus, there isn't many shop opened that time. We have got nothing to do, end up we just wait for the driver at where he dropped us. It was a cooling night, the good thing is there wasn't wind blowing. Else I think my sickness will became worsen.. =(

First weekend in India

[ 在印度的第一个周末 ]

Saturday, I had to work, had to attend a training in office, the IBM RSA. Hm.. One word to describe my feeling, BORE...

The class started from 1100, to 1700. It should teach us on the tool of IBM RSA. But they were talking about Eclipse the whole morning. (RSA build on Eclipse) Then, after 2 hours break, they started on the UML methodology.. Only about 2 hours before end of the day, they talk on the tool itself. Well, it is expected that the training on the tool itself was really rush. What do you expect? It should be more than 4 hours course, became just two hours..

And, I found something. They like to talk much, I mean the Indian. It's probably because they think to speak out is the way to express they know something? I really wonder. All I can think about is, do you really know what you are talking about?

p/s: While I'm boring studying in the class, my lovely housemates went for groceries shop!!! =(

~~ ** ~~

Sunday, there was nothing much on Sunday. Initially we planned to go out with the Thai colleagues for a walk in the mall. But, we were just too tired and lazy to get out. So, end up whole day sitting in the living watch movies, the movie we brought from KL. Non-stop, one episode follow another. Well, to be precise, my butt never leave the sofa, except for ladies, and lunch and dinner. =D

Let's get online together

[ 大家一起上网咯 ]

Finally, I managed to setup a wireless lan in our apartment 2 days ago.

The apartment we stayed was newly rent, so many facilities isn't ready yet. Already feedback to office, the wireless internet will be ready in about 2 to 3 weeks. So meanwhile,we have to think of something for this.

Long time ago, when I was in Thailand, my friend configured a wireless network for me. I saw him do it, so hopefully with that memory, I managed to configure a wireless network here too. Bless me..

And after two hours, ta-da... It's done! My laptop will be the host, connected to the Internet, and shared it out to the wireless network, where my colleague can just connect to the wireless network, and access to the internet through the connection.

Hehe.. So, we managed to get online together now~

My home in India

[ 印度的家 ]

This is my so-called home in India..


The very simple living room, with the new sofa.
Open the glass door, you will get to the balcony.
But we never open the door, they having some construction site down there, and the dust.. yacks..


The dining area.
A round table with four chair, just nice for us four ladies.


Our dinner of the day. Baked bean with chicken, and stir fried broccolis.


My room, a queen size bed and wardrobe.


Bathroom, hm.. Frankly the bathroom not very clean, just acceptable..

Sixth day in India

[ 在印度的第六天 ]

Time been flying very soon.. Today marked the Sixth day in India for me.

It has been a real suffering, however I managed to get over it. Those happy and unhappy, complaints, communication problems and etc.. need to adopt it in the end. Hm.. This is the only way to get rid of it, otherwise how am I going to live my days here?

The only thing is, I am sick, on the third day here. First, my throat wasn't feel well, like people going to get sick, on the determination stage, where it's either you gonna get flu, or sore throat. Then, caught flu the next day when I wake up in the morning. Next, was coughing the day after. =(

It's probably due to the environment problems, and the weather. The dust, the cold, plus the other day was waiting for the driver outside office. Stand there for about 20 minutes, having the cold air.. Gosh.. It's really cold you know, I was shivering then. But I think the most reason is because myself, too weak..

Suffer.. Felt really itchy on my throat, wanted to scratch it so badly. Sigh.. Do I dare to go for doctor? Frankly, if it's not a must, I definitely won't! But I am coughing, can I recovered without any medicine at all? Can anybody teach me how to?
