KL here I come!
May 19th, 2007 by ck
My schedule had been extremely hectic and I rarely got time to blog. Now, finally, I manage to allocate myself some time to do so… LeetleKid.com is still alive! Anyway I’m just writing to update you guys that I’m going back tonight.
Let me start with sharing my experience and thought for my 25 days in Mumbai. Working with people here is never an easy task, as there’s a big difference in term of culture. I never feel comfortable with the massive traffic and I feel bad for the amount of people living in poverty in the city. I don’t enjoy the hot weather and terrible air quality in some areas in the city (especially where there’s ongoing construction work), neither do I enjoy the feeling of staying in hotel and being so miserable alone. However, I shouldn’t ignore the good side also – the experience I’ve gained from working with people here is invaluable, the mangoes here are excellent, the books I got nearby the CST are really cheap, I’m able to save some money from my allowance, and most important is, I’ve really learned to appreciate what I have now after seeing the poor people living in slum area.
For my last lunch in this Mumbai trip, I rewarded myself with a lobster lunch (around RM80 after conversion) for all my hard work here. It doesn’t taste all that great but still I enjoyed it a lot ^^ Simply because I’m in a fantastic mood I guess.
Of course, that’s mainly because I’m really looking forward to be back to KL again. As usual, after a long trip abroad, I miss my friends, family and the foods badly. Definitely I’ll try my best to take the initiative to ask my friends out, because otherwise it will be extremely hard for me to do so when I’m in a project. I’m also planning to do some crazy shopping in the town (looking for a camera, graphic card upgrade and some new clothes) but I hope I won’t overspend.
Argghhh, there are too many things for me to do, but I feel really happy now! Not everyone can understand the feeling of a poor guy who has spent 50 days in Mumbai since early March 2007. But heck, I guess I gonna stop it here as my laptop is sort of running out of battery.
Bye tuan-tuan dan puan-puan. Sekian, terima kasih and see ya in Kuala Lumpur.
