At 9.15 PM and i took plane to go to BANGALORE... i’m met some indian and i try to let them know that i’m going to bangalore and they were nice... we talk about ourselves, and of course about india, bangalore and they give me some tips in bangalore. At 11.20, i arrived in bangalore. The airport is new built, it’s so modern, futuristic design, great facility like just in singapore airport but much smaller.
And you know what i met once again, an indian girl who I met in changi. And she guide me since the plane landed till I got into the bus. The immigration check was so easy, i just passed it easily, i didn’t take much time there. And just for your info,the bus is smell unique... hehe smell indian hahahahahaha... and the bus sometimes turn off the AC (maybe to safe fuel), and i took 1 hour in that bus. And i felt sick in that bus, very sick, after long flight. However, i’m very excited... so different here, the houses, people, athmosphere.... funtastic
And the bus dropped to somewhere call HOL or HCL, thea after ten minutes prateek and daven picked me up to springfield apartemen... I arrived at 12.30, there were Tiffany (chan yap chen) and Hazel (Ling Hui Jung) from taiwan opened ther door for me. They are very nice. We talked until 5 a.m
In the morning at 9a.m there milind and shvarman took us 5 (me, stephani, tiffany, hazel and wendy) for break fast amd after that we went to mall.... and you know what, we watch indian cinema in Indian theater ( like blitz or bioskop 21).... the screen is much bigger the sound system were crazy it’s so loud... it took 4 hours, so many dancing, singing, and unbelievable action(jump from high place or something) with no subtitle. And the unique thing is there a break during movie... its so funny

In the apartemen, the facility is so complete... there is a swimming pool, gym, tennis court, badminton, snooker... food are cheap ( maybe same like in indonesia)
Anyway.... we have so much fun here... my rommates are nice, fun to hang out with them.. although there are some things that i don’t get or they not provide what they wrote in TN details.
Thank you so much dessy...
