BEING AROUND YOU!

Do we recognize the important things & take the small little things around us for granted? Or do we cherish every single thing around us?

For me its every single thing you do around me! Thanks for being the silver lining behind my darkest cloud, you made me smile when my mood is down, surprise me all the while & accompany me every now.

Small little things that you do made me laugh, like the single alphabet F that made me laugh.

While I know a bus ride can make you smile, you are what that made me smile! Home is where you relax for the rest of the day but thinking of you is what that completes my day!

Thanks for coming into my life!

ONE IRRESPONSIBLE CHINA-MAN

I was really looking forward to the Great Singapore Sing Along concert at the floating platform on my weekend.

As I was walking towards the entrance & I bump into
this very rude & irresponsible China-man. He was walking towards me & was chatting loudly to his friend.

Looking to my left I realize there isn't any morwalking space hence I slowed down in order to avod bumping shoulders to shoulders with the China-man. But with his inconsiderate actions he swung his arms wide & there was a loud "THUD" & "CRACK" immediately looking at my precious A.Lange & Sohne, "TOO LATE" on the top is the aftermath..

I tried asking the China-man to pay up but he said "how do you know its my arm dat hit you & not your arm dat hit me?" If I were 10 years younger & my temper much worse back then I did beat the shit outta him man...!!!

EATING IN TAIWAN

Taiwan boast some of the world's best street cuisine and weird tasting stuff.

I had never tasted betel nuts & was dying to score some of those coz when it comes to food &
travel I will never miss my chance to try some Fear Factor style tasting. Allowing my taste buds to suffer, I got hold of some & let me tell you its the worse stuff I have ever tried up to date..! Its taste extremely sour & bitter...! Jesus...I will never ever lay my hands on those nasty stuff ever again.



But of course in Taiwan you can get real wicked & delicious stuff. Juz like the crab claws on the right...Boy were they yummy & the greedy me finish the whole pack myself...





The herbal looking soup below is the only stuff I have regretted tasting up to date. It is snake soup & not dat it is foul smelling but we chineses believe in the 12 animal horoscopes & juz happened dat my mum was born in the year of the snake.

I TEARED..! Yes I did. While eating the meat & drinking the soup part of me felt like I am devouring my own mum...but if you must know it taste rather like chicken & nothing special about it.

Taipei (台北) is the largest city in Taiwan and has served as the de facto capital of the Republic of China (Taiwan) since the Chinese Civil War in 1949. It is situated on the Danshui RiverDanshui, almost at the northern tip of the island.

Basically when I look at some Taiwanese teenagers the idea that went through my mind is dat they are all polluted by Japanese culture seems like some sort of Jap Poser..!

Actually in terms of shopping I find that the cost is not much of a difference compared to Singapore but of course i would say that 'KUDOS' to the street fashion. They have very well designed street wear and you are spoilt with choices when it comes to sneakers.

I went to the Yangmingshan which its one of their national park but the sad thing was everywhere was covered with thick fog hence I couldn't get a nice picture with a beautiful scene in it. Food paradise is located at Kee Lung and they have almost all kind of seafood there.

Basically Taipei wasn't much of a nice experience for me so hopefully going with "i1" might give a different story...! =p So please pardon me for not being able to give u a detailed story..

THE PINK CITY

Streets of Jaipur The streets of Jaipur & the cultures are so different from the big city. The air is less polluted, landscape are more attractive & seems to be more peaceful. Most of the buildings in Jaipur are coloured in Pink and there are more historical places to visit. The only bad thing is the weather. Its hot & dry making us an easy prey to dehydration. The coolest of all you may find in Jaipur is this historical palace in the middle of the lake & its a magnificent architecture work.

The beauty of Jaipur..! In Jaipur most of the locals travel within an auto AKA Tuk Tuk, as private cabs isn’t much active.

ONE UNREMORSEFUL JAPANESE!

Shame shame to that one Japanese guy

Remember the time when our grandfather was roaming the streets when Japan drop bombs all over Asia? It was a time that Japanese soldiers left chaos running around the streets, all the atrocities they committed & the tortures they executed was inhumane. If you have no single clue of what they did, well they rape women from my countries, dropped bomb in my land & worst were the torture they had came up with. Some examples were pulling out our finger nails from our flesh, forcing & feeding us with water & till we can’t drink anymore they stepped on our stomach forcing the water out again. There are more that we today wish not to speak about it. Now, today, feeling ashamed they decided they wanna leave all these out of their history books & covering this act from the current generation.











I say thank God the Atomic bomb was researched & made available & it went KABOOM in the few cities of Japan. But you must be asking “so why telling us all these when we knew it long time ago?” The news that you might not know & left me feeling ashamed for this single comment by this certain Japanese was brought to day light when it came out of the Yahoo news. That certain Japanese mentioned that how could the pilot from America whom had dropped the atomic bomb pass away & not apologizing to the people of Japan? Yes we know that after the bombing Japanese citizens were covered with radio active illnesses! But before that certain Japanese commented on the above sentencein red he did better check his history on Japan. Japan was the one who came knocking on Asia’s door for war. Countries that suffered did not go knocking on the door of Japan & say “hey please attack me!” So please to that shameless Japanese who commented that sentence to check with his government why such shameful deed was launched! if not for the atomic bomb more Asians will have to suffer & Tom, Dick & Harry might not even exist today. Because if my grandfather was killed by the Japanese I will not be here blogging about this.





I do hope that the guy whom commented the sentence does speak for the rest of Japan it will be shameful if it was.

INDIA TODAY!

Understanding India culture First of all I would like to apologize for my absences for the past weeks. Work has gotten most of my time & my style of blogging is to report interesting informative happenings I experience. I was away on a business trip till today & I touch down Singapore only at ETA 0810hrs today. My flight to India-Delhi was a pleasant one via Singapore Airline. Airline crew were caring & making sure my needs are met. The thought of leaving Singapore to Delhi had already provided me with an adrenaline rush. The idea of India has always been exotic for me. Exotic not about the colours of India, spices of India but the sight & things you get to see is not a normal sight you will get back in Singapore or my second mother land Thailand. The only fear I face is not being able to withstand the overwhelming body odour of the Indians. I’m sure most of us face before the horrendous situation when a Bangladeshi or Indian sit themselves down next to us drowning us with their body odour. But to my surprise I wasn’t drowned in the sea of odour when I was surrounded in Delhi International Airport by hundreds of Indians AKA “Ah Pu Neh” lol..

It came to my notice that the environment seems hostile. Thus my male protective instinct kick in & I find its my duty to protect my female colleague that was travelling with me. I was worried that having so many Indians surrounding her might be dangerous for my female colleague Teri to roam around with me while I hailus a cab so I requested that she wait in the airport. It wasn’t long before a group of private cab drivers approach me with multiple price range. The highest they offered was RS$750 & I wasn’t really convince that its the standard or best price I could get. Facing the airport, I made a left & found a few cab companies I didn’t hesitate to pay when I was offered RS$250 for a trip to my hotel.

Wasting no time I make my way back to my colleague whom was waiting still in the airport. As I made my way back in to the airport, I was stopped by a security guard. He demanded RS$60 from me saying that I would need to make a payment to get back in. Having a strong a stubborn character I refuse payment till a police officer approach & stopped the whole heated argument . Lastly letting me in without having to pay. As our cab drove us to our destination , Ashok Hotel, I was able to view the streets of Delhi & immediately I started to immerse myself into the culture.

Streets were busy, drivers sounding their horns in the

cars & trucks could be heard non stop. The non-accommodating streets & living condition amaze me making me saying thanks & appreciating the fact that I am from a country that need not live in those conditions.
