Navratri

today, just went to a durga puja pandal.
very beautifully created, with priests performing pujas and giving out prashad.
music filled the air with chants and hymns.


ganesh, lakshmi, durga ji
saraswati ji, maheshasur rakshas, indra devata
the god-fearing people :P

ITS MY FINAL YEAR!

guys,
its my final year (9th sem), and the going gets tough.
there will hardly be much time to blog or interesting things to blog about, and anyway with the advent of the 'facebook' , uploading photos on the blog seems a chore, the photos i upload are now on facebook and i simply add the link here.

since i've been back from home, its nearly a month now and i miss my loved ones very much. but the best thing that's happened since, is that i discovered i could have unlimited calls to singapore at around 6 buck a month! yes! i kid you not!
its from skype. love those people, and credit cards!

recently i went for a party thrown by nitesh, rajat, ken and soumyadeep at club amsterdam in lakeside. the pics are here :http://www.new.facebook.com/album.php?aid=149721&l=84d26&id=877265182
enjoy.

hongkong vids

i'm putting up some vids from my shanghai/hongkong trip in feb08.
(i'm finally able to upload them on youtube thats why it took so long :P)


this is the roller coaster we went on at this themepark in hongkong called Ocean Park.
went on it twice! great fun!


nandini went crazy with the new words she learnt,
while i am sadly repeating the loss i feel after losing my 2GB worth of pics and vids of shanghai and my first snow experience.


noisy hongkong travellers.

here's a laugh

An 8-year-old girl went to her dad, who was working in the yard. She asked him, "Daddy, what is sex?" The father was surprised that she would ask such a question, but decides that if she is old enough to ask the question, then she is old enough to get a straight answer. He proceeded to tell her all about the "birds and the bees." When he finished explaining, the little girl was looking at him with her mouth hanging open. The father asked her, "Why did you ask this question?" The little girl replied, "Mom told me to tell you that dinner would be ready in just a couple of secs."

sorry folks

hi people.
i am really sorry for abandoning my blog for so long , but i had no choice.
my internet supplier has changed his system and it doesnt work with my laptop anymore.
so i am only able to access internet occasionally for emails.

sucks!
right now i dont see any hopes of frequent updates of my blog like in the past.
whenever it is possible i'll update it.
anyway i am in the final year of my course now, so i am 'supposed' to have less time to waste.

rendezvous

out with megha the other day for a movie trip to TM
watched 'THE MIST' ...

another day ... akanksha, nisha and nandini at tampines mall too, watched 27 DRESSES . 4 stars .
then hung out at the mall and starbucks! had a great laugh with them.

out with hau yiang and krishna to check out this medical book store near bugis.

who's the pig eh ? lol

a lot of books there , but didnt see any that i needed.
just yesterday was the 'class gathering' ... another one planned by hau yiang!

grace here trying to scare the camera into shutting down!

यह लड़की थोड़ी रेसिस्ट है ! मेरे साथ रहेने के बावजूद ।

grace is moving to australia for her studies, but is worried she might get an indian landlady!

its ok grace... indians arent so bad :P

wendy with nurshera!
finally shera! on my blog ... hehe.. looking good too.
both pretty ladies.
felt kinda bad u cudnt have proper dinner.

andy and suan siong.
adeline, thom and grace trying to decipher the bill! was it in japanese too ? :P
unequal happiness?!

some girls like flowers, some dont. get over it!
saw a latin dancer in swensons! ;)

IBM place , a ritual

so yet again my laptop goes bad. some startup problems. i had to get it done at IBM place. had been there last time too ...

its becoming a ritual visit now.

at the bus stop near my building, chose the best day to get out ... look at the wonderful weather!
bus stop ... no one's there in the afternoons
gotta take 32 to kembangan mrt
this is where i get down to go kembangan mrt station,
u can see the Trumps condo behind me ... pretty cool.
at the ibm place near expo. those guys helped me restore it for free. and i had krishna join me to chat, so we were sipping juice and chatting abt college while the lappy did itself :)
thats krishna, now in 5th sem (clinicals)
done with the laptop ... so we left ibm.
the sun was coming out strong again.
haha this expo station looks like a UFO just landed! lol

thats the UFO sucker prejection / lift :P
mrt entrance ... krishna buying himself an EZlink .


going up
thats the expo ... we were inside the train to changi T3

mind the platform gap!


T3 changi

i was out with krishna, so after my laptop got repaired at the IBM place, near expo, we decided to check out the new terminal

reached the airport mrt station >>


looks like an arrival hall in itself! great architecture.
the whole of singapore's current network. its gonna be more complex soon ... with the new circle lines and proposed additional line ...



going towards the T3 building. the other direction leads to T1 and T2.


just reached the stunning T3.

anyway .. so the entrance to T3 was pretty neat .... our mouths were open when we saw the ceiling and all... gg up the escalator to the departure area.
this is a restaurant near the departure area, japanese i guess,
from a wall of glass, we can see the arrival hall and its baggage claim area. a real work of art. totally beats other airports around the world i guess ... the huge thing in the middle is a vertical waterfall! and the green stuff r real plants on a vertical garden, which stretches thru the whole length of the terminal!
the main hall with marble floors and tall pillars giving a very elegant and grand feel.
and the roof has adapted natural lighting.
check in row 11 , the whole of this terminal serves singapore airlines mostly! and is equipped with gates to handle the airbus A380!!
krishna trying to check in, but i didnt allow him, he looked like a terrorist ! called security on him.

need a shave :p
the viewing gallery not only provides view of the runway and parked planes, but also inside the transit area!
there! i told ya! papa says the carpet makes the trolleys difficult to push ... hmmm ... something the designers missed out ?
nice lamps.
before leaving we had a cup of coffee at the coffee bean .

one of the better designed mrt stations i guess... the roof looks good.
