The first thing I woke up is 'Gosh,what's time now' My watch is not adjusted to reflect the 2.5hr difference, and my mind simply refuses to do the mental calculation. Being resourceful, I searched for local news TV channel..and hopefully it's in English.. Didn't take too long, cos I skipped most of the channels in the 8pages list. 7.15am India time..
I took my time to arrange company transport, to wash up and strolled to my breakfast. I tell you, I really had a BIG Indian breakfast! I simply took a scoop of all on the table, except meat. Indian rice-cake, Indian vegetable congee, hashbrowns, omelette, toasts and Indian rice etc.. The waiters must think I'm really starving.. I didn't want to try the congee as it looked plain, too watery and not-appealing.. But to my surprise, the lemongrass really made the congee so refreshing and pure delicious! What a wonder.. I must cook this for my colleagues next week. It's even more surprising that I finished EVERY BIT of the food and enjoyed EVERY BIT of it! Tomorrow I'll try more Indian breakfast from their 'fresh-from-kitchen' menu..
My transport was late..or rather some miscommunication- it simply didn't turn up. I had to make another booking and wait for another hour. Though I should be anxious cos I have a meeting to attend, but I simply felt so relaxed! "What is time when I'm 'away' from work?" I just feel like a leisure traveller..exploring the hotel..My room attendant complimented me on my dressing..Well, first impression counts, right, so i try to be leisurely professional as I can.. especially under the hot sun..Really taking it very easy.. Now it's 10am and i'm sitting by the pool , writing this entry.. what a life.. so what i'm 'late' for work..I really had a language breakdown with my driver.. what can i do??
Oh, by the way, I shopped alone in the mall just now. Bought some indian accessories :P really it's not that bad shopping alone in India.
