Lucky Escape

Dear all,

Did you watch the news?

There were terrorist attacks in Mumbai and Bangkok!

To think that I just went to these two places not too long ago...

I can only say that I am really lucky!

Let's hope that all these bombing and killing will stop one day...

GESS Table Tennis team's visit

The GESS table tennis team came to Shanghai for the annual training/ exchange.
I met up with all of them for the weekend!

Too bad their schedule is very tight and the weather is cold and wet.
I wanted to bring them around but there is little time and it is always raining here.






Miss Tay stayed over at my place for one night and left Mr Phua with all the girls :p
Then I invited all of them to my apartment. They were fascinated with my toilet (???)
Thank you for bringing news of GESS and Singapore food to me !!

Miss you all!!!

My trip to Mumbai

I went to Mumbai, India for a course earlier. It was 3-day course.

Mumbai is a very interesting city and the people are quite nice.
Too bad the place is polluted in every way (land, air, sound, etc)
Poverty is also pretty evident.






I met many teachers of different nationalities during my course and we exchanged alot of teaching ideas and resources.

The most exciting part of my trip is my flight.
Mu flight is arranged as such:
Pudong, Shanghai --> Hong Kong --> Bangkok, Thailand --> Mumbai, India (16 hours)

My return flight will therefore be:
Mumbai, India --> Bangkok, Thailand --> Hong Kong --> Pudong, Shanghai (18 hours)

Why 18 hours flight? Because we could not board the plane on time at HK, therefore
we miss the flight! Almost have to spend the night at the airport transit area(reminds me of The Terminal).

Life is sure very exciting in Shanghai (or Mumbai?)

My New Apartment (Part II)
