Lay your heart next to mine.
Friday, December 18, 2009 @ 11:30 PM  Ohmygeez, it's been dinosaur years since I last updated and I don't know where to start! It's gonna be a quick one tho 'cause dad implemented a rule that has to be followed which is to be in bed by 12am. Hahaha, difficult to oblige, but there's nothing I can actually do. So, I've been in India from the 6th to the 12th and I hafta say it's super different compared to Sg. Like the streets are filled with beggars, street peddlers, dogs, oxes, camels, horses, goats, wild bores, pigs, peacocks, monkeys and, well, basically almost any animal you can think of -.- And their waste, obviously. This experience has been an eye opener to me, and probably everyone on the trip :DLet's start with Day 1 then, which is on December the 6th.  After the flight to New Delhi, we had a rest at a nearby hotel and despite the fact that I already slept in the plane for more than 2 hours, I slept the whole time. The hotel was creepy and it was only my sister and I in the room, what else did you expect me to do? We went Sight-seeing. Then a 5.5h journey by bus to Agra. It made my butt cheeks sore! Ohoh, and I slept almost the whole time(again) Hehe :P But I was constantly awoken by the irritating sounds of horns from buses, cars, taxis, tuktuks, you name it! Had dinner at hotel and went to bed.Day 2,   After Breakfast, went to the Taj Mahal and the Mini Taj. I can't even believe I was there! It was simply breathtaking, and it was hard for me to let the reality sip in. Thank God someone invented the Camera, so that there's photographs to remind me I was actually there :P >>> Another 5.5h bus ride to Jaipur and otw, there was a 2h JAM! Surprisingly, there wasn't anyone who honked annoyingly! :P Checked in @ Holiday Inn and had dinner there. I loved the hotel :DDay 3,   Breakfast>>Elephant ride>>Jeep ride>>Water Palace>>Got sweared by a beggar :(>>Gems factory>>Local Market(Bought a Sari + Bangles :D)>>Lunch>>Monuments>>GYM (My brother and I sneaked away when the guy who was taking care of the GYM went out to check on something. We were afraid he wanted a tip and at that point of time we didn't have any cash :P)>>Dinner.Day 4,   We had to be ready by 3.30am according to the New Delhi clock, which is 5.30am in Sg. I didn't sleep the whole night, instead I watched the National Geographic channel about India, terrorism, etc. It made me more aware DD: Slept during the 5h bus ride back. Then flew to Kashmir. Had to use a "Shikara" to get to the "Boat House" that we were staying in.  Lunch was served by a butler who even cleaned our plates and table after that. We were treated as tho we were the "Maharani"= Princess and "Maharajah" = Prince of the house. > After dinner, there were sales mans coming to the boat house to sell their products. Made a tailored Punjabi suit(sp?) together w mum and sister.Day 5 - Day 7:       I totally lost touch of the time. But one of the days we went to Gulmarg. *Insert jakun here* Played with REAL snow for the first time, as the one at China was artificial. & Apparently snowball fights can be pretty exhausting. Ski-ed, we were pulled on sledges to get from place to place. We rode the cable car and we saw houses almost sinking in snow, and the scenic view left me breathless.Day 8: I find this adorable. Do you? Hee.  Flew back to New Delhi and I felt like crying having to leave the boat house )): Well, on the last night in India, I opened the window in the bus and let the cool air calm me. Shopped somewhere which my mum said it was like Petaling Street in KL. Hoho, which reminds me, I wanna go KL! :P  Grabbed a bite @ MacD and apparently, there was McVeggie and Shakeshake fires which was made of Masala Mix.Day 9, 141209. 151209: Hi Tea @ Carousel with Mum and Siblings. Walked around Orchard with heels that were slowly killing me DD: 161209: Went to Airport @ 3.30am to send brother off but there was a problem w his passport so he couldn't fly. Went to Swensens for a late dinner or breakfast? Spent the day at home sleeping. 171209: Headed out early in the morning to Lavender to update bro's passport. Had Lunch at MacD @ Bugis. Walked to Arab Street then went back to Bugis Street. Got myself a new Denim Jacket :DDD Trained to Tampines and visited my maternal grand mum. Then Swensens @ TM to get cake. Dad fetched us, zoomed to paternal grand mum. Selamat Tahun Baru ye! :P
To top off the hectic week, I'm staying over at JB tomorrow night! |
