Lazy Monday

*Yawn*

Am still recovering from the fatigue over the India trip last week. The smart ass me took the day off today to rest and nurse my flu. Sigh. How I wish I don't need to go back to work this week!

Anyway, I touched down last Friday evening. Was so uber happy that I'm finally back! Was down with a viral infection last Wednesday in Pune. Dunno whether it was the weather, the water or the food, I was suddenly attacked by a strong virus that gave me whole body ache, fever and sore throat within a night. Had no one to go to, so the only remedy was to pop panadols every 4 hours and gulp down bottles and bottles of mineral water. Fortunately with all the chantings and being always mentally strong, I was able to overcome the virus and successfully completed the 3rd show in Ahmedabad.

Didn't take alot of pics this trip cos' it was all too rush rush and I wasn't really in the mood and state to take nice photos.

This is the hotel in Pune (pronounced as 'Poo-Nah"). I like the service here best. Wherever you go, the service staff will greet you "How are you, Mdm?", and during the event set-up, they will goo "Yes Mdm", "No prob, Mdm" all the way. They are so eager to service you that you felt so awkward. And this is the only hotel that I don't have to lay my hands to pack the 150 goodie bags. The banquet captain told me to do a sample and he got 4 of his waiters to pack the rest. Thumbs up!

Fwah! Got DVD player somemore! Impressed!

You know what I hate about India? They have lousy airport system and their lugguage pick up conveyor belts were stenched with layers of dirt and mud, my luggages were mishandled and ended up with patches of dirt everywhere. Below is my new Nike bag I bought last year, had to bring it along to fit all the trophies. Check out how dirty it became...shake head neh.

This is the hotel in Ahmedabad. The worst Hotel we stayed so far in India. The door lock was faulty and everytime I accessed the door, I had to summoned either my colleague or the housekeeper to open/close the door for me. What a dread! And the wall partitions were superbly thin! My colleague from next door could hear me eating my vegetarian pizza in the room! And the next morning, I was awakened by his alarm clock rather than mine! Duh. What's gonna happen to couples bonking in the room? The poor horny bastard would have to scratch the wall the entire night I reckon...haha!

And the room had only very basic amenities like thin soft toilet papers like this. Those we have in S'pore is twice the thickness of this? They don't have hair-dryer in the room as well. I was frantically calling the room service line at 12am but all the lines were engaged although it was written in the catalogue that they are 24 hour. We only realised the next morning that their server was down, so all the telephone lines were disconnected. Haha...guess it was just my luck! I had to board the 7am flight with my wet hair!

So to date, I have already visited 6 cities in India. Heard news that the next roadshow will be scheduled in November. Another nightmare to come soon...anybody wanna come with me? Hahaha...
