Dearest Ms. Chee and various in-charge,
We抮e come to the second last\r\nweek of our attachment in India. This week is pretty much the same as the\r\nlast since we are both still concentrating on our project. We would like\r\nto thank you Ms Chee and all the various in-charge for the wonderful encouragement\r\nyou all have given to us. \r\n \r\nFor me, I抳e more or less tabulated\r\nmy survey results and do up graphs and charts for my presentation. Everything\r\nis done and linked in the excel sheet so tabulating of results are simple\r\nfor me. The sample size for my project is now reduced to 30 and thus, I\r\nshould be able to complete in time. However, to date I have only completed\r\n13 interviews thus I抦 not even halfway there. Still trying my best to\r\ncomplete the other 17.\r\n \r\nRegarding ShuXiang抯 project,\r\nhe has sufficiently proven that there is room for improvement for the current\r\nhotel抯 airport transfer system. Next, he will proceed to implement a\r\nsolution for the problem. Being stranger to the hotel as well as the transportation\r\nindustry, it is tough for him to implement a feasible solution which could\r\nfit in real-life. Thou so, he is making reasonably good progress. If this\r\ncontinues smoothly, hopefully it will lead to a continuation to the OIPP\r\nChennai placements.\r\n",1]

My dear family and friends, classmates and working colleagues, sis and bros, telling ur a fabulous new now… im going to bangalore this weekend for a holiday. Going this Friday night and coming back on Sunday. Btw, im taking a train ride from chennai to bangalore.

This is the first time im taking a train ride, not including the fact that it’s a 5 hr train ride, to a place 362km awae, travaelling from a humid climate of 32degrees Celsius to something near to 20degress Celsius, sharing the cabin with rui and 4 other Indians in an un- airconditioned cabin. How good does that seems, especially with the frequently forwarded emails of how Indian trains look like and the news reports of overloading Indian trains which caused it to crash.

Another interesting fact about Indians and their culture, it’s a festival for tml and the day after, due to that festival, the people here are having public holidae. The gist of the festival and reason for celebrating is that it’s a festival for TOOLS. Yea rite. TOOLS….. the computers, the monitors, telephones, keyboards, the air conditions etc, all of you, it’s the festival for u all, for these tools, Isn the Indian culture profound and special… I simply love it.

Today, this very evening, I’ll be having my hair cut in an Indian salon. In India, it takes lotsa guts to cut ye hair and its even harder to find an appropriate salon So if my hair looks exceptionally nice or wateva, dun remind me alright.

My sixth sense told mi ur are goinog to Bangkok or phuket. Nononono. That’s a bad choice, ur should at least wait for one week cos I predict the oil prices are dropping during that week. wait a mere 7 days will save u a great deal on air fares. Btw, I heard that Bangkok might be having a kinda great Singapore sale kinda event after the week which ur are planning to go. Soooo…. With so so so so so so much reasons to postpone your trip by one wk, hahahaha


from the first photo, these are the management trainees. they are the ones who are our room mates. the guys are my room mates, while the girl are rui's. we're on a trip for team bonding exercise. dun thier faces look so similarly alike, its so hard to differentiate one from the other. haha

the second photo is my boss, hes name is amar rao. hes being transferr.ed to dehli thats y batman became my caretaker. isn he cute. lol

the third photo is a dumpling which rui made, the one which im pointed at that is. its too beautifully made that its impossible to sell and we ate it up in the end.

the 4th and 5th guy is rui's supervisor, a veri funny guy whose always disturbing rui cos she's ticklish. a joker

hi all.

another week has gone just like the past 4 wks. half the process is done, another month before home sweet home singapore. not to mention the comfortable bed, weekly soccer and badminton and most importantly, friends..

without the weekly soccer and riding in the hot sun, contradictingly, i've became fairer and even lost weight. with my hotel being in walking distance, and basically with my bike not around, i'll have to settle with some walking exercises. did i tell ur that thigns are real cheap here. an example is travelling expensives. it take 15-20 rupees to travel in an auto(thier form of cabs) from my place to the hotel. im not a person who take cabs often but since its 80 cents.





tis is how an auto looks like. it can also be called transportation to hell. while driving, they stick so near to each other, u can practically touch the moving car beside.

kitchen uniform, if its blur,blame it on ur lousy com not on my photoshop skills. in this case, i think the com which im using to look at the pic is lousy. haha.
