Hello all,
It's been so long that I posted something in Xanga, here are some of the exciting stuffs that I found in India. This is only my 3rd days here. Sorry it might be a little lengthy......
Day 1 (September 4): Arrive airport around 12:30 in the morning.
Man, here are things that I DON'T like as I walk out of the airport:
- Guess what......this place SMELLS like CRAP. You really can't imagine how bad it smells like. On top of that it's full of ppl.
- There is like ppl pretend to help you out and close the door for you, then here is comes......for doing nothing, those ppl as you for TIPS. LOL, my collegue and I just pretend we don't understand what they are talking about. (Hint: They speak English, NOT Hindi).
- On the way to hotel, there are like a group of ppl setting up something like a Bun Fire (Sorry, I'm a FOB, not sure did I spell right or not). Setting bun fire is cool, but they F*ing (excuse the language) setting it right in front of a freaking gas station, yes you didn't read it wrong, it's GAS STATION, my collegue and I was like, WTF.
Here are things I DO like, LOL..........
- Woohoo, hotel staff send someone to pick us up in the airport, hahaha, it's a BENZ.
- Once arrives at the hotel, staffs are welcome us and give us like flower necklace. I was like WAHHH, I feel like a KING. They basically help me carry all my luggages to the hotel. This is not even a joke, the service is just AWESOME.....
To conclude 1st day, I basically do nothing beside staying in the hotel and wasting my whole Sunday. Isn't this lovely. 
Pics of Hotel and my room:

Day 2/3 (September 5/6): Woohoo, 1st and 2nd day of work.
Here are things I saw and experienced on the way to and at work:
- Ppl here drives like MANIAC, this is not even funny, a freaking 2 lane street and actually became a 6 lane street. It's bumper to bumper, on top of that the gap between car to car/motocycle/people is like 15 cm apart, this is ain't even funny.
.......
- On top of bad traffic, the road is NOT just for cars and scooters. It is a combination of bicycle, tricycle, cars, scooters, people, cows, pigs, and dunkeys.
- This is a picture that I took inside my office. Notice the cows in the pics.

- I was like no wonder such a short distance from hotel to work can take up to an hour of commute time.

- Besides, seeing animals crossing streets like there is no others, I saw people just taking piss on the side of the street. I guess if they can't hold it till they get to a washroom, they just let it out.......somehow, it's disgusting.
- Because of the place is so condense, ppl who commute thru BUS don't even have a chance to find a spot to stand inside the bus, ALL SPOTS ARE TAKEN, both STANDING and SITTING. We all know that when there is no room in the bus, then wait for the next one. Guess what, when the bus is not stopping, ppl just chase the bus and jump onto the bus and hang on to the pole right outside the bus with their hand or body sticking outside the bus. Don't know what these ppl are thinking
.
- The worse thing on top of jumping onto the bus, ppl also jump out of the bus while bus is still moving, the best part is that the traffics are still moving with cars driving back and forth, this part freaks me out so bad.
- Some ppl are living in a shelters right off the street that is build with hay and some plastic cover. This is something that I'm not quite pleased with. Sad....



- Ppl here are nice, but please use DEODORANT, it smells so BAD. It's not those curry smell, but body scent.
OK, above I have cover quite a few point about the place. Now is the weather, it is o hot and humid out here, and people still wear long sleeves and riding either bicycle or scooters to work, NO WONDER their body scent is so strong..
As far as for food, my dear friends, don't worry that I will smell like curry. This is the first question, that most of you (especially my close friends) think that for the time I'm in India I would smell like curry when I go back. Don't worry folks besides curry, they have a lot of other great food that are not curry related. 
. On top of this, Indian curry are good to be honest with you.
OK, this what I have so far. Will post more later. Have a good night everyone......
(Isn't this sweet
).
