shop till drop...literally...

jaipur is crazy.. it's really crazy.. there are so many streets of shopping!!!! all interlinked n crosslinked n hyperlinked... u get e idea...
it's shopping madness... e biggest drawback is tt it's jus so super duper dirty... then again.. there's no clean place here in india except in ppl's homes...but it's more dirty here..
it's quite disgusting @ times.. like e public toilets arnd every corner.. it's so public n foul-smelling..hold my breathe everytime we near a corner...but it's only here in jaipur u get such public urinals...bleahz...

shopping... it's good.. lotsa clothes n little knick-knacks.. bote lotsa tops ahah will be so indian when i get back..
n SHAWLS!! hahaha... some r pretty ex..some r good bargains...
bote so many things tt my backpack is jus overflowing now.. terrible.. i dun dare open it anymore.. unless it's trying to stuff somemore things into it. but there's no SPACE!!!! argh...*groanz*...
even my duffle bag is like beginning to fill up... shopping n shopping n shopping.. heheh...
i can set up a booth jus to sell all my stuff n i bet u i'll earn money man. hahahah

cant's stand e auto-rickshaw ppl.. they r so in ur face..luckily i'm not e only guy.. poor mark.. he gets e most stress.. n everyone deals w him regarding money matters. all e haggling for prices of auto-rs...of course when shopping it's diff.. hahahah
even e shopkeepers dun haf e energy to keep up w all e sg-rean girls choosing n bargaining.. esp lz.. she's e best man haha e price jus gets lower n lower..

not so sunny todae.. so quite good.. we walked like 1/2 e way back b4 we got a auto to sit on...
e traffic is more insane than in delhi..cars, bicycles, autos, rickshaws, cabs, ppl, cows, horses, camels, dogs, rats...everything i tell u.. jus come n go @ will... madness.. e only time vehicles adhere to traffic lights is @ those major intersections.. or else sure kena lang-ga by oncoming traffic.. n when e light turns green e vehicles jus zoom off regardless of whether there's anyting in front of them. CRAZY....

everyone tinks we r north koreans. it's irritating whenever there's "aniyo-hasaiyo" being shouted into ur ear all e time... super irritating.. feel like slapping some of them soemtimes. jus shut up n leave us alone. if we wanna go into ur shop n buy sthg we will.. dun come n bother us ler.. bleahz...

fatigue of travelling gettin 2 me...haven fully recovered from e 8hr - no aircon, no toilet breaks no leg space....phew.. it's w God's grace we all survived everything n are still healthy n safe... praise Him!!
all e experience here is once in a lifetime man!!! i recommend everyone to try it once when u r in ur youth..

~ farewell HCH...=(

e last day.. 20052005..good day.. no?
was super busy e whole day! can't believe e last day @ HCH wld b e xiongest day of all.... teaching session @ 6am, chapel, doctor's morning meeting, photo taking.. running arn collecting e 5 corrected versions by e various 5 departments.. trying 2 locate missing copies...n IT WAS SO HOT!!!! wat practically sweating e whole day.... n i dun sweat tt easily.. bleah.. it's only e beginning of e heat....
in e end, only 2 copies were corrected - paeds (Koshy, Benjamin & Dr Indira fr CMC Vellore) n family med (Lydia & Laji)... e rest...well... eh hem... were deemed to be 'perfect'.... ya...
slack man... n we had to pia @ e last min to make quite alot of changes for e paeds doses.

then rushed over 2 Dr jeff's place 2 upload final input of photos burn e photos into cd..... took up 2 cds.. almost max e 2nd one too.. made copies for each of us n also for Koshy, Kripa, Harry n Dr Sabu... had debrief w Dr Jeff...
hugged e kids for e last time....sigh.. Conner was patting us when he hugged us... sigh...
will miss them lots...

went over to mary's place 4 a while n chatted abit, passed her some of my salvars n also shoes.. hee.. but my bag is still full to e brim!!!! even w all e food gone n all!!!! ARGH~!!!!! JL man... not like i bought super alot of stuff lor!!!! ok mayb i bought abit. but not ALOT leh.... arghhhhhhh...
gave her 1 of e v few keychains we brought along w us.. n also got Sema 2 come over n gave him one... cos they were closest 2 us.... n jaspreet...we gave him b4 he left... mary & sema were quite happy tt we mentioned their names first when we were giving our farewell/thank you speech @ chapel in e morning.. cos they say they dun usu hear their names remembered up in front of everyone... hee... Mark named e Mess members.. heh... n they said it sounded abit like attendance taking in e morning.. kekeke...
will miss them.. pray tt they'll b ok.. not easy for them in a new env too.. being fr e northeast is actually quite a diff part of india.. it's more chinese in many ways...life, looks, culture..n language... there r super alot of dialects man..

mary's going thru a tough time... n we got quite close in e last couple of wks.. tink wat she's going thru now is sthg i mite not b able to take if God were 2 put me thru. i'ld prob go crazy...then again, He puts u thru trials tt u can handle... n i'm thankful 4 my time here...

experienced quite abit of things... tho din really study or brush up clinical skills or did anything work related... bleah...
feel like coming 2 india 2 help e kids here might really be my calling...
have always had tt though @ e back of my mind..to help kids in less developeed area.. but never anything tt specific as to which region or area.. but these 6 wks here opened my eyes to c kids in so many varied situations & environments...in wards, hospitals, good families 2 villages, slums & beggers... everytime a kid comes up 2 me to beg 4 money... i'll cringe...
we were told not to give any money 2 any beggers 2 all. or else e whole clan will descend upon u n devour u ... but i can give 2 1 or 2 no? but how much is enough? mayb for 1 or 2 meals.. but e kid will prob never grow up 2 c adulthood... times lidat i feel totally loss n helpless.. jus looking @ e child staring @ me w hopeful eyes... my heart jus aches like mad n i feel like crying then n there.. each & every time.
now when i see any begger child approachin from far off, i jus shut my eyes tight.. & hope tt he passes by quickly.... sigh...

i digress...
back 2 topic...

went also 2 koshy & lydia's place for a little while 2... felt abit sad saying goodbye 2 them.. left my measuring tape w Koshy cos he was super fascinated n delighted w it.. like it's his new toy... heh... it's a nice tape... =P

been checking e mailbox everyday n i still haven received e package from liting yet!!!! sigh.. wanted to give e crosses 2 each person myself.. now i cant... sigh.. jus hafta leave behind some 'instructions'.. sian man... hope they like it as much as i do...thanks liting!

went 2 buy ice cream for e farewell @ e Mess... went late for dinner 2 cos then e usual (aka "old foggies" =P would b there...) arnd 830+9+pm.. then e Vellore kids wld b gone.. but 2 my horror, they were still there!!!! i was quite irritated actually... cos they dun give me good vibes... n they r rowdy n frankly quite unfriendly... or mayb it's a groupie thing.. i duno... even some of e usual mess ppl start 2 turn up later for dinner jus so as 2 avoid them @ e mess.. then again.. when they r there, there's not much space in it.. so mite as well wait till they r gone first b4 eating...

anyway, they were there.. n they took part in e usual farewell tingy... jus quite diff.. abit draggy n all.. but when everyone was singing e 'Friends r friends forever'... i began 2 tear... sigh... it was jus sad... bleah.... but din cry ler...

dun feel ready 2 leave.. if only i could have stayed longer... going back in e future wld b diff... but He has His plans.. HCH will always have a special place in my heart... e ppl especially... it was a family.. will miss all of them...

din really sleep last nite... slept like 1.5 hr.. cos writing little 'love letters' to koshy, lydia n e Mess members... will miss them all loads... e fun n laughter n e warmth.. n will miss e kiddos too, conner, cosette, cameron, ammlu.. bleah.. tot all of them how to ^5 hahaha.... e rest r tryign to unteach them tt n trying 2 teach ^10 n ^1.. ahh wt nonsense =PppP

tis drenched lady (mark's contribution: 'dripping "holy" water from e Ganges') beside me kept bumping into me...disgusting man.... but bo bian.. 'had to' watch e ceremony.. so tahan thru n scrub like mad when i bathed... nothing very spectacular tho.. jus lifting up n down of fire (in a large dish).. n e fire jus climbs higher n higher... but of course it's THE GANGES...so...it's a ONE-in-a-LIFETIME experience... even dr koshy was shocked tt we were goin... he drove thru a 'mob' n was aghast @ e tot of venturing thru it again... ha..

starting to get use 2 e life here. it's really a good get away.. but whether i can b part of it is another matter. now i'm jus here as a student.. so everything is more relaxing n ppl view us differently.. if i really wanna work here one day.. i wonder wat it'ld b like... looking @ e work environment here.. it's like a haven.. e ppl r v warm, nice n real.. n v encouraging.. v diff fr back home... e attitude, behaviour n all... things are not as harsh here.. everyone works hard, enjoy everyone else's company n haf fun tog.. guess e closeness comes along w being in a small community... dun mind coming here n work for a couple of years.. if i get e chance..
as long as there's a place in e heart, there'll b a place for everything n anything...

i'm here for a couple of reasons..n i'm thankful for them.. sometimes it's not easy to haf e guts to stare it rite in e face n take it head on.. but tt's y i'm here.. with time to myself, n e stars n e sky blanketin me.. it's easier in many ways..
gotta let go of yesterday to look forward to tomorrow...
