Everyone : EVo is out of order with food poisoning. Not just any food poisoning, it’s INDIA food poisoning.

I thought I’d developed enough immunity over the past few trips, mana tau kena again.

Good thing it started yesterday, after the last day of the EXPO instead of during the EXPO.

I can’t put my finger on what was it that caused it…yesterday morning’s egg during bfast, or nasi during lunch. But I’m sticking to good ol Hobnobs for my meals tomorrow.

Good thing there was a doctor around and he could get me some ubat…if not..

This is my current tally:

Puke – 4 times
Ceret beret – 4 times
Head aches like mad
Giddy the moment I stand up
Fever of 101 deg for d last 6 hours
I feel so bloated inside til now

And I thought that someone would say something to at least help me feel better but no, she won’t.

I’ve no idea why. Is it too much to ask for?

I had to cancel my appointments today, and hopefully I don’t have to for tomorrow’s.

I think I need to lie down again. Wish me luck for the next week people >.<

EVo

People I’m in India now! Woo hoo!

Dunno why I’m so excited la. Not that it’s my first time here also. What, it’s like my 3rd? 4th? 5th? Yeah 5th time..

Kinda sad right, when everyone’s taking advantage of dropping exchange rates and going to 1st world countries on holidays. Even the low low low Aussie dollar’s calling out and tempting me to ‘Buy me! I’m only RM2.2!’  T__T

And people like me are not taking advantage of the exchange rate and bergila-gila go to 3rd world India.

What to do. Looking at it positively, I’m actively participating in economy modernization. Now that don’t sound so bad!  xD

This time around, the weather’s kinda worrying.

It’s so hazy like The Hulk ate a lot of petai and let out farts every 5 minutes.

 

 

Even cows lose their way in the smog and step out blindly in front of honking cars.

 

I’m glad for this whole week I won’t be having to move around the haze too much. I still love my lungs a lot and will happily stay in the expo hall!

Anyway, what am I doing here again in the Land of Invisible Toilets?

 

 

We’re having this MMMM08 exhibition showcasing our China-made products called Universal Shafts. Don’t ask, there’s no melamine, just lots of steel Biz was pretty OK in India so we figured, it’s time to claim our spot in the Indian market. Ma have the exhibition lor.

4 of us are here btw. Me, bro, parents. Very family-family business I know.

Good thing about this is that I don’t have to pay a single cent for anything..haha..!

 

A few more pics on the event before the preparation…

 

 

 

 
Behind the expo hall where all the shipped display samples are kept.

 

The Indian worker’s policy : 10 guys will watch while 1 guy works.

 

Our crate is found!

 

 

 
Bro, me & dad.

I’m looking at my dad’s pic and I’m thinking : if I’m not careful, my tits and nipples may end up sagging like his. Better work hard on those bench presses! LOL.

 

The venue’s called the India Expo Center and is situated at Greater Noida, about 1/2 hr from New Delhi.

Just for the record, the city started as Delhi, then there was New Delhi.

There’s also a Gurgaon, which now has a New Gurgaon.

And now, there’s also a New Mumbai, like a derivative city of Mumbai.

I just believe that the old city becomes too messed up and the government decides ‘Let’s abandon the old city and move on to the New one’. Hence the ‘New’ cities.

I wonder what city’s gona emerge when those New Delhi get too messed up? ‘Newer Delhi’?

So after the Expo center in Greater Noida, we moved to the older part where there are shopping malls…at..yes you guessed it…Noida!

 

There was the usual road accident on the way…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is Centrestage Mall where we had McD for lunch.

 

Momo’s is a Nepalese food. Never ever try roadside food in India, as a rule of thumb.

No no, make it rule of HAND. Seriously, unless you wanna get food poisoning for 5 days that I very bravely kena in Jemshadpur last year. Nasty.

 

I have no idea what number plate this is. Maybe it belongs to some rich guy who could have had ‘A-Z’ on his number plate if he wanted to.

 

After some running around trying to find an India flag which I think was a waste of time, we finally came back to Greater Noida where we had dinner in a place called Yu Turn.

 

 

 

The food’s really Not Bad, We had Chinese food, but you know, Chinese food here’s all a la Indian. Basically it’s Chinese style using Indian ingredients, so imagine how it tastes like. They just call it ‘Chinese food’ to attract people…scammers!

To be fair, I rate it 4/5 based on Indian standards. Take 2/5 as my rating on Chinese standards.

But hey, looks not bad right!

 

Next up tomorrow…preparation!

 

 

And omg guess who I saw!

Hint : One of India’s most successful industrialists. I was that close to him! ^^

 

Cheers!

I was supposed to go for a particular Fashion Rave Event at Pavilion yesterday with Psychkin.

These passes came as single pieces in a Cleo magazine, which means to get two tickets, you gota buy 2 magazines. So that’s what happened.

One Cleo for Psychkin.

And one more Cleo for me. My very own first! *hugs my Cleo protectively*

Hehehehe.

Anyway 2 passes became one because apparently Psychkin had lots of work..

I thought biarlah. Can play with dad’s canggih camera by myself.

Then I realized I had a meeting in the evening which couldn’t be postponed to today.

So, terpaksalah meng-recycle the passes lor.

 

Good thing Cleo cost me only RM5.60. hehe..!

Anyway I always wondered. What’s so nice about Cleo??

Despite the many copies which I religiously bought off the shelf for Psychkin monthly, I never had the chance to look further than the front cover.

 

Of which, this month looks pretty good leh… *who in the world’s this babe???*   ^o^

 

With the magazine in front of me early in d morning, what to do?

 

(1)  Find out the page where this model was featured
(2)  Continue writing this post
(3)  Chuck magazine away and go to sleep

*check check flip flip* Aiseh. It’s only a cover model leh. Not featured also. Yeah of course I went for option 1. You think?  

Since the magazine was already open, I might as well flip flip some more.

 

 
Yummy.

 

Maximum girly stuff. Yeesh.

 

 
Silly ‘pop-quiz’ and results..

 

Hmm..this is worse than I thought…

 

 
This is the worst. Guys should sign a petition to ban Cleo forever! What la this kind of influence?? LOL

 

Orlando Bloom’s theory means that all other average guys look like pigs.

 

Eyy..I LIKE this one. very leggy. and skirty ^o^

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And I come across some details on the Fashion Rave Event. It might have been a good thing that I didn’t go..how does a guy do ‘Rockstar chic’ ??

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Probably the most interesting article was this!

 

Definitely worth a read. It’s so interesting that I couldn’t continue reading coz I got too sleepy haha..

 

Anyways I’ll be off to India from tomorrow till 24 Nov for an expo in Delhi. This is a leaflet which was proudly created by me as the invitation.

If you ever ever (based on the remotest possibility) come to Delhi, do drop me a line at +919967008527 or my 012 number. I’d be so happy to see a non-Indian face take you around!

 

Wish me luck y’all =)

Cheers!
