hey people,
Today is the 16th day of me in pune and I am now a certified bastard son who will will never miss home whenever he go. Honestly, up to today, there is no sign of homesick whatsoever in me. I am living here just like I am living life every other day. Life is getting interesting.
For the past one week, Thomas and I went through departmental orientation, meeting every departmental bosses, to acquire knowledge about how every department runs their operation. But for thursday and friday, we just plainly redundant by doing nothing since the two bosses we are scheduled to meet have to travel outstation.
Although I didn't manage to go to Turkey for a traineeship but Turkey came to me
Gocke, the gorgeous turkish girl, my apartment mate and another turkist friend, Arp, they are simply the coolest and the best.
Gocke, how can I not write about her man....I can feel the chemistry in the air already...the other day, we team up to cook together for the rest of the apartment people (5 altogether ). She cooked a turkist soup (mercimek corbasi) and me on the other hand was the main chef. I fried noodles with slices of cili padi, onions, tomato and scramble eggs and gosh, it was fantastic...shit ...I am soo good...Dinner was great. Everybody praised my cooking and demanded me to cook again which I did it again the day after which continental fried rice with scramble eggs, slices of tomato, onions, garlic, masala, cili padi etc.

I even did the dishes and clean the kitchen eventhough we have a maid to take care of it. Man...this simply remind me of my time with Checkers restaurent.
After the dinner, turkish girl and I started to roll a joints and with beers, we proceeded to the A20 balcony.

She got the joint from Goa
Getting high, just the two of us, was great. The feeling was so good and we talked through the night. Morning after, I helped her settle down by fixing the cupboard and the bed and I didn't know I can be a carpenter too, ...shit!! I am good:)
She gave me the the turkist eye stone, which tied to your wrist with a leather string, which meant to protect you from the bad things and jealousy. Pekyen, do you have any idea about this??
Smoking joint with her was really great and the night seems endless. Fuck we were aeroplane in the air. I flipped through her CD collection and fuck, it is all stoner motivated and inspired legendary superstar like Bob Marley, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Radiohead etc. But she's quitting her traineeship and I am afraid she will be leaving us.
Oh Adrain geh....everytime I got high, I will surely think of you
Not all housemate are clickable. There is this guy from Germany, his name is Bernard. He is strange with his peculiar attitude. All the trainee community , which including me, always bitch about his peculiarity behavior. He strange behavior is just like Jack Nicholson in the movie "As good as it get".
Then there is Dutch girl name Hendrieneke, I call her Jimi hendrix, not because she have any resemblence at all to the guitar maestro but simply because it is easy for me to call her. She's the most senior and always think she is smarter than every ones. She is the one that with the house rules and stuff but no one really give a damn to her:) Let's move on.
There is so many travelling trips and I am saving my ass really hard. Most of the time, I will prepare breakfast and dinner myself. My usual bfast is cornflakes with fresh cowmilk, mix with benana slices and honey, fried & scramble eggs with toast bread, butter and marmalade. Dinner are fried stuff but when lazy just toast bread and fried eggs.
I am saddened by Kerry's lost in the presidential election. I actually anticipated Kerry to beat the Republican idiotic Bush but I guess the Americans knows better. In India, most of the Indians including the magazines, government and the public are all in favor of Bush. They jubiliated for Bush victory. But as for trainees I met, whether in Pune or Mumbai, including the Nathan, are in favour and are supporting Kerry and we all loathed Bush and his global approach and foreign policies. I finally found out why the Indians are in favour for the Republican, because the republican are assisting and supporting their nuclear programs against Pakistan as well as financing the development of India.
Thomas, Dawson and I went to Mumbai on friday's night with bus. It tooks us about 4 hours but the journey was really great. It was very cold and we were freezing. We met up with Gabielle and Alexia in one of the happening pub, provogue lounge. We partied until 4am and grab a train from Dadar station to Santa Cruz station. The train was really shitty and fuck-up but worth experience it, after all what is coming to India without taking the train ride. Mumbai...the city never sleep. It was so funny that we were waiting for the train and clearly, there was very few people in the station becoz it was in the middle of the night. we tought we gonna have the best ride home but shit, once the train sounding horn from afar, hundreds of people suddenly rush out from nowhere and jumped and hooked on the still-stopping train, leaved us dumbfounded.
Daytime train ride was even thousand time worst. So fucking many people for that miserable fucking little place. I was being push here and there and yet unmovable. So fucking smelly. The train station is soo huge that people can builds their own slump houses. People rushing people peeing people shitting are common and of coz stray dogs are everywhere. A day in mumbai is like a day in overcrowded hell. But anyway, It was all worth it and sad to say, we only experience "dust in the air" of mumbai only. We will surely go back for more.
In mumbai we stayed in one of the trainee's house. His name is Alexia from Belarus. Again, I must confess my ignorance and stupidity because I don't think I know about this country then, but now I know:) I thought it was somewhere near Russia. Even though he was suppose to be unhappy about it (political reason) but due to my ignorance he pretty understand it. In fact most people said the same thing to him especially the local Indians, they thought Belarus is somewhere or part of Russia.

He of couse provided the best hospitality to us.
I was suppose to stay until mid Sunday for a Mumbai-trainee saturday house party but we were too tired and we decided to get back to Pune day earlier.
People, this mail is still gonna be long. I think you should come back for more. Because after this email, I won't be able to on line for at least 1 week. It is all because of my south India (hampi) trip. Yes, it is all fixed and we will be going for a 15 hours roadtrip to hampi. We hire a van to drive us there. The whole trip will be from wednesday to sunday which all of us will be off for deepavali celebration.
Yesterday night was cool. We hung out in our A20 balcony. We light up few candles and the whole surrounding like people lighting a vigil light for mother teresa. And of course being a guy with all the CDs, I am again, the self elected DJ in the house.

With me, you will never miss Eric clapton's blues, U2, InXS, styx, Bob Marley, Jimi hendrix etc.
It was really great. The weather was cold, and we bought 2 box of Kingfisher's beer (india's leading beer) and 3 bottle of wine. No weed for that night, we were completely clean. We hung out quite late and we woke up to organize a sunday breakfast festival. But this time is not in A20 anymore, we did it in C1, another trainee apartment. It was fun. But this time I didn't do or help in preparing, just rest my ass and eating like a pig.

Toast breads, masala scramble eggs, butter and cheese and marmalade, yogurt and fresh milk and fruit salad. It was really great. Hendrix did most of the part, so I am in no liberty to curse at her after this:)
Sunday was relaxing. About 15 of us including the Magda and Martin from bostwana went or a motorbike trip to a snake and mini zoo. The zoo was big. Of course it was not the zoo that excite us but rather, it was the motorbike helmetless riding that excite us.

In India, motorbiker are not require to wear helmet unless you love your fucking head which they are not. I went on the bike with mama Hendrieneka. The traffic in India is completely shocking and amazing. The bigger size and louder you are, you rules!!!There is no rules, everybody drive their way and turn whenever they like...
The zoo was huge. Apart from hoohaa with the animals such as crocs, leopard, bears, snakes and yang sewaktu dengannya, we went for the boat ride. The lake was huge and beautiful. Took a few photos and lots more on their digicam.
If you don't know, I also pick up writing a diary for myself. I started it day before leaving for Pune and until now, suprisingly, the flame of writing still burning. Apart from my diary, all emails to you people are also part of my journal, so bear with me sometime especially when I mention names that is not matter to you.
16 days and still counting and I completed Jeffrey archer's "not a penny more, not a penny less" and "The prison diary" and tomorrow, I will start another of Archer's classic, "Shall we tell the president" which I brought it in mumbai for about RM5, original wan....
I just wish Archer will write again because I think I almost read all his collection already except for "Matter of Honour".
So here I am. In Pune, writing my daily craps to you. I think traineeship wil be one of the greatest thing ever happen to me. Sometime I ponder to myself, am I really in Pune doing traineeship or am I just dreaming. It was a real dream come true for me. Talking bout regret, I don't think I will ever regret this decision even though my traineeship to Turkey and Eastern Europe didn't wotk out as I want it to be. I guess, it didn't really matter where you go or what you do, you will have the best time of your life if you have great surrounding and great people with you. India is great and Pune is wordless. Simply amazing.
I dreamt of Yik Hun yesterday, travelling with me around india, talking and talking and also showing his skills in tour guiding me. Fuck!!Of all the people, I dreamt of this petpet!!! I mean it should be the Turkish girl at least....
I guess God gave a sign, that Yikhun, you are destined to travel with me in India:)
I am really excited about the South India hampi roadtrip. I cant wait anymore, to see the ancient civilisation's building and temples leftover, the mountain and river and all. Also not to forget, getting stone with the turkish girl amid the beauty of natures:) I will write more when the trip is complete.
Coming December, We might be travelling to GOA. It is a island, a beautiful one and one of the top touristy island in India. It is similar to Phuket, but I think bigger. I am going for broke really, but as for now I have to survive and keep saving, so I can go for more trips. One thing for sure, when everything is over, I will be back home jobless and penniless and if you ask me later, would I be regret, I guess I won't. This is a one of the fucking lifetime opportunity and the best time to do in at the prime of your youth. So any of you still thinking about traineeship, trust me, it worth more than all your obstacles and challenges you may go through, just for a traineeship.
There is a MT traineeship in Pune, if you are interested, email me.
Weihan, one of my freind here is a current Japanese MC. His name is Yoshke. He said he know you and the fat/short MCP:)
Anyway, it is one and half hour I have been nonstopping typing oledi....So i guess tis is a call from me. See you in a week.
love and regards,
Peter
