Hey Hey Hey... so here is the next event in my singaporean life... A DISASTER, which is the rite name ... its a disaster for all that I thot of, I dreamt of and I felt of.... Nothing more than eating Chicken..... for the first time... yes it was good... but dint want to taste it any more once I knew its Chicken.... I will tell u how it happened.... Went to Pizza Hut... I asked for a good Veg Pizza .. here comes the problem... these chinese ppl dont understand what Veg is actually... she thought that I requested for Veg toppings and
she gave me the CHICKEN SAUSAGE... so there ends the matter.. I ate to pieces of it.. and when my friends around said that its chicken.... ITS ALL DONE !!... Bloody HellL !

THE TIME @ SINGAPORE
Hi...
THis is what I am doing as an Intern here @ INsead Business School from BITS, Pilani as a part of my graduation...
On the first day, when I am @ Singapore... I realized that the development at Singapore is phenomenal. THE AIRPORT.. CHANGI is the best one I have ever seen with its greenery letting u to feel like u r still with the nature... midst of such developments. And here @ Singapore, this issue applies to every corner, every street, every building. U dont miss greenery at all...
How singapore is different from India;
**Traffic system and public administration here at Singapore ROX..
**Believe taxi drivers.. no problem... they take u on the shortest path safely, unlike in Italy.
**Singapore is a city of fines.. as said by many of my seniors... even for a bicycle riding at wrong places, u will be charged 500S$ ( nearly 15000 Rs). Rules are strict.
**And the people here follow all those rules with dignity and patience. Basic thinking of the ppl is very veyr different from Indians... Yes I know I am Indian... so i write this.. We Indians should change our thinking first.. so starting the development in India...Ok... no more philosophy preaching..
Here comes abt myself, my work and my stay...
After a loooong search for a room for 2 guys...gaurav and myself... ( Gaurav is from BITS, Goa ).. I could get a nice room at Telok Blangah Crescent, freindly flatmates(Indonesian, chinese,etc) for a very reasonable price at nearly City centre...Basically not just a room... I have all exxtra facilities & luxuries like AC, TV, fridge, stove, electric cooker, etc. The only thing is I have to travel all the way to Insead in 2 buses costing me 30-40 min. Timings at my office are very flexible... we can go between 8 to 11 and leave between 5-7... just work for 7-8 hrs... at the max... a perfect timing for a professional life starter like me.. Insead treats interns really good. Gives u all the freedom... Oh i forgot to mention abt Pool table and Foosh ball that we generally play after lunch... And yes lunch at Insead is really really a 5 star level one... for a roadside rate.. :P... may not be good comparison. Very good set of seniors of our university ( 10 is the count ) are a nice company at my work place..
Cant eat outside, very hard to get veggy food here.... so now u know that i am a veggy atleast..
And ofcourse for dinner i am cooking.. I have to ask my mom to send some simple recepies so that I can try out burning my hands :P.... dont worry.. comeover for dinner to my house.
Places visited;
on the first day was int he middle of the tall skyscrapers at Raffles place...
on the first weekend, saw 2 movies here at theatres which are upto the standards of IMAX / PVR of India, but 5 times the cost...also covered the East Coast Park, cycling along the coast.
One the second weekend, was at Sentosa Beach which was excellent, thrilling... went on a skyride and Luge... which were very exciting... hey... will surely got there if u are here with me..
Days went on.. this is the 20th day at SIngapore... nice to live in this place.. enjoying all the new places I cover. Going out is like an adventure here.... .Hoping the next news will be soon updated.... BubYeee !
