Lunar Three Family Gathering @ my home

Today is Lunar three...... All of my mum's sister, my aunty and their family will come to my house. After my grandmother passed away three years ago, it rarely has big gathering. It reminded me the time when I was young, every sunday all of us would go to grandparents house and spent the day.

However, when all of the cousin growth up and has their own life, the "young generation" didnt meet for long time. Few weeks ago, my grandfather passed away. My mum realised that we should catch up sometime if not our relationship will become worse, especially the young generation.

I am excited about today. There are 23 people come to my house. And many of them I didnt meet for long time. Since I went to New Zealand and India, I miss out a lot of chance which we could meet together, such as two cousin's wedding.

So early in the morning, my mum and I are busy to prepare the dinner. About 2 pm nearly everyone had arrived. It was really noisy!!! Imagine, 23 people were talking in the living room of one small apartment....however, it was very happy!

Delicious Dinner started..

Since our table is not big enough, we had to celebrate into three "areas"

BBQ

Happy Chinese New Year!!!

I could not remember when was the last BBQ we had. Yesterday 13 peoople gathered together in Lai Miin's house. All of them know each other because of Chong Hwa Chinese Orchestra. Our friendship already more than six years...

When I was high school, we were hanging around all the time. Thats was one of the best time in my life. Without them, my high school life would not be so great.

After graduate, we rarely to have chance gather together. Everyone has their own life.. studying, working, local or oversea.. Gather all of us is really hard.

However, after so many years, we still can keep in touch. It was great that we could gather again. We have fun, make noise, laugh loudly... as usual. It was amazing.

8 bags of Hotdog =.='''

"Our Diary" - such a suprised when we saw this book again, it brought back a lot of memories!

决定

人生需要做很多很多的决定。
这半年里我做了很多影响自己人生很大的决定，包括学业，前途，感情。
每一个决定都必须经过深思熟虑，因为害怕有一天会后悔。
每一个决定也会有得有失。经常都无法两全其美。
这一个过程有时真得让我觉得很累很累。
回家本是最好的避风港， 但每一次都是来去冲冲。
现在很渴望一个休闲的假期，可以让自己轻松一下。
也希望印度的事情能够快点解决

Delhi 2

Jama Masjid

It is a Mosque in the central of Old Delhi. India is a country has a lot of different religion. Islam is one of them.

Although Malaysia has many mosque almost everywhere, I have never been one of them. This is the first mosque I had visited.

on the way...

another picture I love

Taj Mahal

IF you come to India, you cant miss out this place. I believe that many people know about the story about Taj Mahal. But you could not understand how beautiful is this story until you stand in front of it.

Early morning we catch the train to Arga. After 3 hours, finally we arrived.

Taj Mahal is the most beautiful building I had ever seen in my life. It is amazing. I dont know how to decribe how beautiful is it. May be "weapon" is a good word which was told by Clay and Mark.

It is really beautiful... especially it was build because of LOVE. It makes this place more beautiful. I am not sure whether I have another chance to visit this place again. I will love to come again to catch the sunrise of Taj Mahal although the enterence fee is costly. I believe the sunrise here will be one of the best sunrise in the world.

I am here.... should we take off our shoe??

no matter which door you look out.. you can see a completed Taj.

Indian Time + Indian Promise

Last week I was excited about my staying in India. However, now I totally lost my passionate. I am not sure did I make a right decision. Or I just like Annie said " I put myself into hard position!" I am really confuse what should I do now.

Everything is just because of one person didnt keep his promise and responsiblity!

21 century everyone realise that Indian and China economy has grown very fast in the world. Many international companies have started their branch in India. Therefore, there are a lot of opportunities.

And lucky me got a pretty good offer as I mentinoed before. I went to the interview, although it was a bit weird since the manager did not very sure about my interview. Anyway, he promised will get back to me on Monday.

If you live in India, you will realise that many indians do not know how to keep their promise. They didnt have the strong concept which they should keep or take responsible on what they had said. Besides, the most famous things is INDIAN TIME. If they late about 2-3 hours is just a normal things. This two culture is a big challenge for me because I really don't like people be late and irresponsible. I always have to wait and wait and wait because of this. I am person who will lost patient easily, and waiting too long will drive me crazy.

So after waiting for 48 hours, I am frustrating now. I loss my positive thinking about this situation. However, thanks for mun yi, who is my buddies in senior 3, she give me many positive thinking. After chatting with her, I feel better and cool down. Just be patient and let see what will happen.

I do appreaciate during this had process a lot of people helping and support me. If not I already give up.

Thank you guys:
Gary, Hong kong - thanks for your support and be my consultant. Hope you can be healthy soon :P
Steffern, Netherland - thanks for pushing the Indian in your company. and sorry for trouble all the time.
Family - although mum and dad are not really agree that I stay in India for longer. But no matter what is my decision you guys never say NO and do give me the best physical and mental suport. Don't worry about me! You should know your daugther is pretty tough!

Overall, I am still waiting but now I will try to be positive!!

p/s: this Saturday back to Malaysia!

2nd destination – Sarojini Nagar

We planned that this day was a shopping day because I promise to help Clay to buy 1kg jewelry for his sister and girlfriend. So, we leave Karol house, which is far away from the city, at 11am. From yesterday experience, we spent 3 hours to go to the central city. Therefore, we decided to use another way to go to central city. By looking at the map, we found that train might be a good idea.

First, we had to go to train station. How can we go to train station? The area we lived, Gurgoan, is an area restrict AUTOrishaw enter. From the map the train station is pretty near, therefore we took the bicycle “AUTO”, which I only saw in Delhi. It is a small and slow transport. You can’t imagine two HUGE Australian guys and me sit in the super small three wheelers bicycle for one hour to the train station.

feel pity to the driver.. so heavy

We though finally we arrived train station. However, we could not communication with the ticket counter because they can’t speak English. Luckily, we were assisted by one of the stuff there. He told us the express train which would go to Delhi was coming soon. However, when the train arrived we can’t even go into the train because there are too many people. So we decided to wait for another train.

But suddenly we realized we might have to wait one more hour! Oh god! Anyway, we didn’t have another choice just enjoyed it. The next train finally came after one hour. We were sure this was not an express train because it was very slow and the idiot driver kept horning all the way!! It was loud!! I think we stuck in the train about 2 hours. However, when we got to the last stop, it was not the stop we want to go.

After that, we took the auto to New Delhi. It was just half of our journey but we spent about 5 hours! At the end, I could not remember how we get to the market.

After this experience, conclusion is Delhi is really BIG!

Anyway, sarojini nagar is a local market which you can buy the cheap Indian stuff. This is the best place for shopping in India. After the good shopping, I forget about the painful train experience.

The Largest City in India: Delhi, 26 Jan to 1 Feb 07

Delhi originally was my last stop in India.

Delhi is the largest city in India. The LARGE in India is really LARGE! This is largest city I had ever been. It is also a city which is furthest from the sea area I had ever been. Since it is too big, we only can visit few places although we have one week in Delhi. Not only the city is big and huge, all places I went were BIG and HUGE!

1st destination – Red Fort

Of course it is such a HUGE fort. It was too bad because my camera was run out of battery when I arrived there. But it will always in my memory!

you can see red fort from far away

Since it was Saturday night, we were planned to go to the largest club in India, Elevator. I was able to put our name into the guess list. However, I didn’t expect to party in Delhi so I didn’t bring any clubbing cloth. But there are 50 malls around the area we lived. However, because of the transport system of Delhi is very bad. We spent 3 hours to go back home. By the time we went back, the shopping mall was closing soon.

I have ever bought a shoe in 10 minutes in my life! Unfortunately, when we got back home look at the map and look at the time. We realized that the time we arrived the pub it might be 2am and it might cost 2000 Rup. So, we end up drank at home and had a nice sleep.

Crazy Life

25 Jan 2007 is a day I would not forget in my life. It was a crazy memory...

Before this day, I was excited to go to my Delhi trip and then back to malaysia, and back to New Zealand after Chinese New Year. However, everything had changed after 25 Jan.

That week has been the best week in my Bangalore life. I met a lot of new and nice people. But it was sad everytime I told them I am leaving soon. I found that after two month india, I started to love the life here. Especially I had so many crazy trips. Now, I know how to live in India and start enjoying it. So, I am not ready to leave this country. Anyone who had oversea experience will understand how I felt now.

At that time, Gary sent me a job description which a company is looking for an intern who can communicate chinese and working in Finance and Marketing field. Besides, it is a pretty big company in India. I just feel like I found my "husband". It is such a perfect job for me at this moment. Then, I start thinking about to stay here 6 more months.

Although everything came suddenly, I know what I want and I know what am I doing. There are many problems I have to solve if I make this decision. If I go back home directly, I do not need to face all this problems. However, I know I won't give up opportunity just because of that. So, I decide to try my best to get this job.

I had done my interview yesterday and will get reply on Monday. No matter what is the result, at least I had tried and I won't be regret.

I pround that I am doing this! I will make my life ROCK!

Last day of my internship @ Child Right Trust

I had spent my summer in India by doing this internship. Today is my last day! It was the first time I wore Sari. It was cool but pretty hard to walk, I nearly felled down from the stairs.

My working area

I had Malaysia presentation. I found that Malaysia is really hard to present because there are too many to present! And I also found out I love Malaysia more than I though! It is such a lovely country!

Working in NGO is quite relax however sometime is really challenging. We always don’t have enough resources and time. However, what are we doing is meaningful. I am glad that I had this experience. At least, I have more knowledge about child right issues. Every time when I saw child labour I wish I can do more for them.

From this experience, I know how lucky I am.

Ø I am lucky that I born in a country which everyone has the education opportunity and does not have a big problem on gender disparity.
Ø I am lucky that I born in a family who able to provide most of things I need.
Ø I am lucky that I have so many opportunities in my life.
Ø I am lucky that I have the CHOICE!
Ø I am lucky that I know that I am very LUCKY!

Many people could not understand why I choose come to India. However, come to India always remind me that how good is my life. I am enjoyed and appreciated what I had experience here, no matter good or bad, because it is part of my life.

Thanks everyone in CRT of giving me a good time!

Chennai, 20-21 Jan 07

After take a one week rest in Bangalore, I continue my travel journey to Chennai which is capital of Tamil Nadu. The main reason I want to visit this place is here is the “home town” of Malaysian Indian. Most of the India in Malaysia are from Tamil Nadu. Therefore, I would like to know the differences. However, Tamil Nadu is too big I only managed to visit the capital city – Chennai.

After 7 hours bus, which is one of the shortest journey I had in India, I arrived Chennai 5 o’clock in the morning. After meeting Mark and Clay, we went to the Hotel they already booked. It is quite expensive (500 rup) compare with other Hotel we had been, but it is not good.

Then, we went to one whole area which sells many electronic items in very cheap price. There are speaker, pen drive, hard drive, laptop, computer, etc. It is similar with one place in Malaysia – Low Yat Plaza. However, here is 4 size bigger and cheaper. Unfortunately, I didn’t bring enough cash!

After spending 5 hours of searching, I got
Ø One 2GB pen drive US$22
Ø One 1GB camera memory card US$16

Once again, it is fun to bargain in India!!!

At night, we went to beach, I am not sure it is Marina Beach or Elliot Beach, however it is the second widest beach in the world. Although we went at night, I still could feel how big the beach was. Of course, Indian beach always full of rubbish.

huge fish net on the beach

The next day we planned to go Bollywood Film Studio. After 2 hours journey, we finally arrive the biggest Film Studio in Chennai. Unfortunately, it was CLOSED on Sunday. We could not go in. It was really disappointed!!

Train Station in Chennai

Sweet in India is colourful!

poor kids beg in the train station

Anyway, we had to moving on. We went to a temple. I don’t know why I could not remember most of the name in Chennai may be it was just two days. When we arrived the temple, we try to go inside the temple which was not allowed non-Hindu. Of course, we didn’t success.

But we still have another crazy experience; we stand besides the train driver when we went back to Chennai city. It was not allowed for any people. It was fun!

By the time we went back to Hotel already 7pm, the management request us to pay one more day because we check out after 24 hours. Of course we were not willing to pay extra! Therefore, we spent like 1 hour to argue with them. Since they didn’t inform us we had to check out within 24 hours. And there were no information around the hotel or in the contract. So we argue so hard to make sure we did not need to pay 500 rup more.

It was such a good argument because it was a bit scary but end up I had another awesome experience.

Before I leaving, we had one of the best dinner in India – Beef Fried Rice near the street! It was only US$0.5!! I missed it a lot!
