Singapura ...rewind

When was the last time that I was mesmirzed.Long back.. This time I wasnt mesmirized by the airports,buildings,the roads,the cleaniness etc. I could very clearly see a transition in myself, now when I look back on those 2 weeks at Singapore ,I realized that the finer things in life gave me more pleasure.

To see people moving on the streets carefree .. Restaurents running full house at 3am in the mornings, lady cab drivers who boldly take up night shifts in Singapore carrying drunk people who are least aware of their destinations = Respect .Nightclubs,dancebars,pubs anything.. u name it and people maintained minimum discipline.. & the best on friday nights.. people partied like it was diwali every week ! I sometimes just feel sad for us Indians.. most of us havent seen the brighter part of life. Life is just not about excelling in whatever you do.Its not about coming first from kindergarten to your post graduation.Hence I never topped :P .You need to find pleasure in finer things in life. You need to unwind at Starbucks on a weekend for a couple of hours,You need to hit the F1 track sometimes,You need to be like the Singapore I bankers - who work their ass of till 8 pm and then head for a beer on the 63rd floor,& in contrast our typical I banker would have to catch the last local train at 1.40 am,and hit the bed with the thought that 2mrw would be equally worse.Life does look different from the 63rd floor especially when you could see three countries at the same time.

I met my millionere Alums (70 in total) in Singapore. I was surprised to know some of these guys actually own private sea facing bunglows in Singapore.They are amongst the richest there.So life aint that bad.. Gives me confidence that I would atleast find an apartment to live in.. if not anything else :)

I crashed into my 12th std friend by mistake.We prepared for IIT together..infact we spent a lot of time in various classes together ..Well meeting someone by mistake after 7 yrs only to learn that he passed out from IIM B ,is a Ibanker at RBS Singapore, and has also got his fiancee a job in Singapore.Awesome.. !

Genting may not be vegas but definetly it is Asia's vegas. Totally appreciate it.. Yes this time my vegas experience paid off..I won quite a bit at the Casinos.I just realized it aint bad to even be a taxi driver in such countries where people look for quality of life & not measure success in life by your visiting card.Petronas towers was simply superb.Kuala Lumpur is 50 yrs ahead of India currently & the shopping never ends. Girls could simply go mad in that place .Malls with awesome clothes with things like - Pick anything for 25 ringets...! ur kiddin me..!1 ringet is just about 15 bucks..

I have defntly lost a couple of things in the last 6 months, I wish I could get them back,How much ever badly I want them back,they are just not coming back.Somethings just dont click.But this trip has enriched me in more than one ways.

Reverse Bungee,Tiger,across the lake,Indian Embassy,Ports,Industries,Millionere Alums ,Chinese Sardar,CBD,Russians,Wine,Starbucks,Casinos,Nightclubs,Night safari,Raffles place,63rd floor,Duck,Mustafa,Thai food ,Petronas towers& lot more..

I just learnt that my next destination may be dubai soon..looking forward to it!
