rendezvous

out with megha the other day for a movie trip to TM
watched 'THE MIST' ...

another day ... akanksha, nisha and nandini at tampines mall too, watched 27 DRESSES . 4 stars .
then hung out at the mall and starbucks! had a great laugh with them.

out with hau yiang and krishna to check out this medical book store near bugis.

who's the pig eh ? lol

a lot of books there , but didnt see any that i needed.
just yesterday was the 'class gathering' ... another one planned by hau yiang!

grace here trying to scare the camera into shutting down!

यह लड़की थोड़ी रेसिस्ट है ! मेरे साथ रहेने के बावजूद ।

grace is moving to australia for her studies, but is worried she might get an indian landlady!

its ok grace... indians arent so bad :P

wendy with nurshera!
finally shera! on my blog ... hehe.. looking good too.
both pretty ladies.
felt kinda bad u cudnt have proper dinner.

andy and suan siong.
adeline, thom and grace trying to decipher the bill! was it in japanese too ? :P
unequal happiness?!

some girls like flowers, some dont. get over it!
saw a latin dancer in swensons! ;)

IBM place , a ritual

so yet again my laptop goes bad. some startup problems. i had to get it done at IBM place. had been there last time too ...

its becoming a ritual visit now.

at the bus stop near my building, chose the best day to get out ... look at the wonderful weather!
bus stop ... no one's there in the afternoons
gotta take 32 to kembangan mrt
this is where i get down to go kembangan mrt station,
u can see the Trumps condo behind me ... pretty cool.
at the ibm place near expo. those guys helped me restore it for free. and i had krishna join me to chat, so we were sipping juice and chatting abt college while the lappy did itself :)
thats krishna, now in 5th sem (clinicals)
done with the laptop ... so we left ibm.
the sun was coming out strong again.
haha this expo station looks like a UFO just landed! lol

thats the UFO sucker prejection / lift :P
mrt entrance ... krishna buying himself an EZlink .


going up
thats the expo ... we were inside the train to changi T3

mind the platform gap!


T3 changi

i was out with krishna, so after my laptop got repaired at the IBM place, near expo, we decided to check out the new terminal

reached the airport mrt station >>


looks like an arrival hall in itself! great architecture.
the whole of singapore's current network. its gonna be more complex soon ... with the new circle lines and proposed additional line ...



going towards the T3 building. the other direction leads to T1 and T2.


just reached the stunning T3.

anyway .. so the entrance to T3 was pretty neat .... our mouths were open when we saw the ceiling and all... gg up the escalator to the departure area.
this is a restaurant near the departure area, japanese i guess,
from a wall of glass, we can see the arrival hall and its baggage claim area. a real work of art. totally beats other airports around the world i guess ... the huge thing in the middle is a vertical waterfall! and the green stuff r real plants on a vertical garden, which stretches thru the whole length of the terminal!
the main hall with marble floors and tall pillars giving a very elegant and grand feel.
and the roof has adapted natural lighting.
check in row 11 , the whole of this terminal serves singapore airlines mostly! and is equipped with gates to handle the airbus A380!!
krishna trying to check in, but i didnt allow him, he looked like a terrorist ! called security on him.

need a shave :p
the viewing gallery not only provides view of the runway and parked planes, but also inside the transit area!
there! i told ya! papa says the carpet makes the trolleys difficult to push ... hmmm ... something the designers missed out ?
nice lamps.
before leaving we had a cup of coffee at the coffee bean .

nice day.

its so joyful to leave nepal :)

after a gruelling exam semester, i left for home with my friends, unsure abt the results that await us after a month or so...

only given a pitiful 3 week holiday after we gave our lives mugging and mugging for the exams!

still, we leave determined to make something out of these 3 wks and enjoy to the fullest~

leaving the hostel with zoheb and sambhav. poor sambhav had eye pract last, he lost his sight :(
haha , just outside our yeti flight.
zoheb took 'camera-shy' to a whole new level - ppl look down , but he's closed his eyes completely!

oh look ! there's a bodyless hand stuck on sambhav!
अहमद कि अदाएं !! अनीता को लुभाएं!
our thai flight to bangkok with anya and umesha.

they fly to sri lanka frm bkk after a 3 hr stop!

lucky me, i just hop off this and hop onto the sg flight!
