I’ve adjusted better to the weather here. Yes, it’s hot … today it almost hit 50 deg C especially when we were having the site meeting … the heat just hits you in the face like a blistering sledgehammer. Everytime I leave the hotel apartment, my glasses gets fogged up and it’ll take a couple of seconds for it to clear itself again.
Food wise … now that’s sad. I’ve been having ALL my meals at the same restaurant since I first arrived. That’s right, you heard me … 2 days … 6 meals … all in this South Indian restaurant. I think it’s called Sunlight Restaurant or something of that sort. Why you ask … I don’t really know how to answer. Convenience perhaps … afterall, it’s just located opposite where I’m currently staying but then again, there are so many other restaurants around the area. Hmmm … I’m puzzled too but somehow, the people I work with tend to head there for every meal. Taste wise, it’s ok la. Really nothing worth mentioning but pricing is reasonable.
Oh, I’ve found a gym I can go too here. It’s located 5 minutes away in a hotel which belongs to the same group of hotels which I’m currently staying in. Hence, I’ve been granted free access there. Woo Hoo!!! … but it’s a small gym le … something like 2 treadmills and 2 bicycles. Alas, beggars can’t be choosers. Also located where McDs, KFC and Burger King is. Found two oriental restaurants located nearby. I now know where to get a haircut and pharmacies are aplenty. So survival shouldn't be an issue. :p
Work load is rather heavy at the moment. Not complaining though … at least it’s a productive way to pass the time. Beginning to adapt to the working lifestyle, the culture in general and hopefully, this exposure will equip me with better knowledge and experience once I’m done for good here.
