hello Guys,
How r u? I am doing good. Hope u are also doing good. So last week was a mixture of adventure, emotions, work & tragedy. There are many things that i want to write down, lets c how much i recollect.
So again week started with work, work and work. last week there was a release so was busy in work @ office and cooking @ home. But i was excited during this whole week, that after some 3 weeks or so, i wud visit sm place or explore singapore island (Pulau ubin).
finally this weekend i got my shipment from India. wowowowow, lots and lots of things, samaj me nahi aa rha where to start. there are namkeens, good day and hide n seek biscuits, all dals, all masale, some books and novels. on Staurday i made rajma, with my own cooker, and masale. Rajma was very tasty, if u wud ve been here then u wud ve said "wowowowowowow", well u knw " kitchen king masale ki baat hi kuch aur hoti h". kafi tasty bani thi, so first experience will my cooker wa good, but chahpti thodi si jal gayi thi, not so good exp, but yar apne tawa pe first time tha, time lagta h adjust hone me na sabko, but maza aaya, u knw whn i was cooking, there was a very good feeling that finally i am making food in my own utensils with my own masale, now no dependency of cooker, waise yha sab milta h, but yar India se aaya h so acha to bnega hi, pehli bar after coming here, i used "ghee" for chapatis and maza aaya khane me. pls find some pics of my food i take during lunch and dinner. i hope u'll enjoy watching it.So it took arnd 4-5 hrs to settle my cargo @ home, ab kitchen me mera drawer bhar gya h :))))) so this was saturday and lets come to sunday : the day.
Sunday: so i planned to visit one of rural island of Singapore (pulau bin), which is in the far east. the weather was perfect to visit this place. on saturday night and till sunday noon, it rained so climate was pleasant. So early morning, i made my breakfast. bread toast, and then also took some coke and bread rajma with me. so reached the east of Singapore in 1 hr, there we met our other 2 frnds. we took a bumboat, a ferry ride to reach to that island, it was a 10min jrny.
let me introduce u bout Pulau ubin - well it looks like 1970's singapore, govt has taken precautionary steps to prevent the island from commercialism, there are hardly any buildind, hardly any vehicles and perfect surrounded with sea and its a kind of jungle.
so we reached thr by 1.30 PM, we rented 4 bicycles, yes bicycle is a only commuter thing thr, kinda prevention from pollution. I remebered my school days, till12 th i used to go by cycle daily for 12-13 km, kabhi bag gir jata tha cycle se to kabhi kisi frnd ko lift de dete the, were good old memories.
So our adventure started as soon as we were on our cycles. the roads were good and some was kacha ilaka type. jab upar chadai aati thi to waatt lag jati h, but then upar se niche jate the to wow 50-60 ki speed hoti thi. in that island thr is one very good place named, jalan wetlands, it was very serene, very calm, lovely place. we went thru forest, explored sm mangroves trees and then reached to anpther corner of island, where thr was pure sea, since airport was very near to that island. we could see lots of planes landing, ships and since its not commercialised and crowd was less even on weekend. one can spend almost half day, far from city, from buildings, from vehicles. A perfect place to explore the nature. Early in the mail i wrote that this week was lil emotional also.
Emtional why, my cargo, my things arrived from India , then from island, airport was very near and i could rem my day when i landed in Singapore, the same lush green side, planes landing and departing. and also last week and this week few of my friends are gng back India, So sabki yaad aayi :(
So lets continue, here are the pics of my trip http://picasaweb.google.com
the east is very lovely, so greeny, and thr was also a small beach thr, family come for a picnic on weekend , cook seafood, build tents and spent quality time. thn we took a bus, new rasta, a new way to reach to our place. everything was fine till now,
but when i was about to go to sleep @ 11, unfortunately i locked from room from inside and thr was no duplicate keys with e, even my window was lcoked from inside, maine socha kar dia "locha" weekend khatam hote hote. now imagine , i am running @ 11.15 to get duplicate keys from house owner. na maine kabhi uska flat dekha na kabi dekha, but somehow reached and they handover me duplicated keys, chalo jyada duur nahi tha , it was 15-20 min walk. gha pahuncha and gate khola and so gya.
u knw i have realised that hume weekend kyon chota, i mean aisa lagta h ki abhi to aaya tha abhi chala gya, in my case coz i was totally at home for 3 weekends, ghar se bahar nahi nikla isliye, but abhi lagta h ki this weekend was long coz i planned smtng and finally executed it.
So guys enjoy the pcture and do send me your reviews.
so some new findinds this week:
1) door pe key lga ke rakho, jisse aise raat ko bhagna na pade.
2) found some new raste, new paths.
3) a lovely island explored and recollected school memories.
take care
Cheers!!!!
