India Education Trip 2006 - Part 1 (Day 1- 3)


The 14 people I survived with for 8 days in India



Day 1 - Singpore to Delhi


Rachel and Me @ Singapore Changi Airport


Flight S2082


Air Sahara


We are visiting Delhi, Agra and Jaipur during the hot and humid season. best?


My lovely toes. It doesn't look that bad afterall.

Our Greedy Faces


After 5-6hours of journey, we finally reached Delhi, our first city in India.

The Girls


Lazy me!!


After we met our tour guide, we went for lunch at some unknown place in Delhi.


Timonthy looks like a cute little boy in this picture!!


Subway that cost 50RS(S$1.78). super cheap


I had Subway for lunch..


Next, we went to do some sight-seeing..

Rachel and Me


Next, we went to the India Gate


The beautiful Gate of India


The Girls: Nuraini, Rachel, Joan(me), Arisya, Kamesh and Carol


The Guys: Nicholas, Jonathan, Timonthy, Shaun, Weijie and Dave


Next, we went to Qutur Minar




Kamesh, Me, Nuraini and Rachel


Rach and Me


After sight-seeing, we went to a Bazaar for some shopping.


Shopping at this Bazaar was horrible. It's much much much worse than shopping in Thailand. Their start prices were extremely high. We had to bargain like nobody's business. You can bargain until you feel like puking blood out.

My best record was from 450RS(S$16), bargained to 100RS(S$3.50). That man was really crazy. He wanted to sell me his belt for S$16. Crazy! I might as well buy it from Singapore. But with my powerful bargaining skills that I inherited from my mum, I managed to bargain it down to 100RS. I feel super aunty sia. I'm Aunty Joan.

It was really extremely scary to shop at this bazaar. We were actually walking in a big group but everyone started to disappear one after another. In the end, I was left with Rachel only. Two clueless girls stranded in this crazy bazaar. We were surrounded by many indians and all of them were bombarding us with their goods, like as if we are super stars and they are the paparazi.

It was really horrible but we managed to survived it and left the bazaar in one piece. We are strong girls.


Delhi's toot toot.

After shopping, we had our Dinner at "Lassiez Flaire". And two blackouts occured at that place.


Kamesh, Carol, Arisha, Shaun and Timonthy


Nicholas, Jonathan, Miss Meilun, Nuraini, Me and Rach


Sulphurless Sugar?
You mean our normal sugar has sulphur?? What a lame description of their sugar. HAA

After Dinner, we check-in to City Park Hotel.

Our first hotel room

All of us went out in the night, wanting to catch a movie but there wasn't any movie slots left. Sob Sob. So we ended up playing "Blackjack" in my room. Only Shaun, Weijie, Rachel, Dave, Timonthy and I played Blackjack. The rest played Monopoly.

GUESS WHAT??

I got triple 7!! This is my first time getting such cards!!

We played till about 3am (sg time: 5.30am)

Total winnings: 320 RS
Total Black-out(s): 3 blackouts. (1st: airport, 2nd & 3rd: Our dinner place)
Expenditure: 675RS (S$24.10)

Day 2 - Delhi


Me and Rachel well-dressed for our breakfast with the High Commission.


After breakfast, we went to a shopping mall to shop. I bought 4 levis jeans, 2 for myself and 2 for Chris and Pussy Toh papa. I think the guys' jeans are a lot nicer than the girls'. Blehz. And I don't understand why guys' jeans string and girls' jeans expand.

My current levis jeans that I bought in singapore is expanding, expanding and EXPANDING. I think it expanded from size 24 to size 26 liao. It's going to drop anytime. Maybe I should console myself by telling myself that I have slimmed down. HAA..what a joke!!


After shopping, we went to Baihai Temple


Me and Rachel at the entrance of the temple


A beautiful view of this white ravishing temple.


Rachel and Me with a background view of Baihai Temple

Gummy Shop that has unlimited gummies


I'm taller than Weijie!! I'm like 178cm!


Weijie, Shaun and Me
Do you believe that I'm that short when I stand with them?


After shopping, we went for our Dinner. On the bus ride there, I gambled again with Shaun, Weijie, Rachel and Timonthy. I won 260RS!! YIPPEE!!



Having our Dinner


a lizard eating the moth. took this outside our restaurant.


When we returned back to our hotel, we saw fireworks. The fireworks came from an Indian Wedding which took place just next to our hotel. How wonderful it is to have fireworks for your wedding! Too bad it is banned in Singapore. =(

In the night time, we gambled again. This time, we went to Shaun and Weijie's smoky room. We tried playing "5 cards" (pool fusion girls' game). I won 30 RS from there. We changed to Blackjack and I lost 100 RS. We played till around 4am (sg time: 6.30am)

Day 3 - Delhi to Agra

Me and Rachel woke up late!! LOL. We had to be down by 8am but we only woke up at that time. Hee..I shouldn't have sleep. Or should I say, I shouldn't have gambled till so late.


Weijie sleeping on the bus.

We took a 5 hour bus ride from Delhi to Agra. It was difficult to catch any sleep on the bus because the roads were rather bumpy. So, we ended up playing card games again. Shaun and Weijie were playing Blackjack. Tim, Dave, Rachel and I played "CB daidee". The new daidee game I learnt that has a King, Queen, Jack, Prostitute and CB faggot.


This my creation, Cool? A table for us to place our cards.


Rachel and me


Timonthy distributing the cards.

We had a break in between the journey and took pictures with these cute boys.

After 5 hours, we finally reached the next city, Agra where Taj Mahal is situated at.


Our beautiful hotel room


Me and Rachel

After checking-in, we went to a Marble Factory to learn how Taj Mahal was being built.

Workers at work



All of us bought the medium size Taj Mahal minature, which is made of pure marble. I will blog a photo of it when I unpack all the stuffs I bought.


This is a picture of it from the factory


In the night time, all 12 of us played "Murderer" in Kamesh's room. For once, we never gamble. Murderer was fun. We played another version of Murderer. This murderer game has a story plot and it's really fun.
