Life in India

I feel like i owe u all an update, hehe, so here it goes....
First, here's the answer to zhao ming's question: we do hav esprit here, but only in the big city like Bangalore which is 10 hours from Manipal if we take a bus.
Now, let's proceed to the conditions here:
1. the roads r very bumpy, so we dont really like to travel here
2. there's dust everywhere.... EVERYWHERE!
3. no food here can remind me of malaysian food; it just makes me miss malaysian food even more
4. my accommodation: a room with attached bathroom in a hostel
5. the laundry service here sucks, the clothes u sent may return smelly
6. i always thought that only malaysian ppl r inefficient; it seems that indians r just the same! (except for the photocopy service, they r really fast! it's like double the speed of photocopy workers in malaysia)
7. there r frequent power cuts(at least 2 times a day)

moving on to classes, the subjects for my first block(1 block is 10 weeks) r anatomy, biochemistry & physiology. i hav lectures 6 days a week(sun off), hav dissection class every morning(except tues cos it's in the afternoon, thurs n sat). the cadaver on my table is 2 years old.
sometimes i hav PBL(problem based learning) class n sometimes SDL(self directed learning). once a week i hav a boring PPD class(personal n professional development) which is similar to the moral class we used to take back in malaysia. i just hope we wont need to do assignments n presentations for it.
Thinking back, i kinda miss intec life where u can sleep or play with handphone in the class, sit wherever u want in class, sometimes can ponteng without producing an mc(just need to act like u r sick, lol), sometimes classes r cancelled n end at 10am then can go shopping, can wear just jeans n t shirts for lecture etc etc. I also miss akasia where there's a kitchen in the house n a place to hang clothes if u wash on ur own, a badminton court to exercise, washing machines to wash clothes easily.
I miss my kfc, i miss sunway pyramid, one u, i miss singing k, hanging out with friends, playing cards n mahjong n rotting at home. Well, i'm not saying that i've chosen the wrong path, i know that it wont be a bed of roses since the moment i made my decision, so i guess i can't really complain much. just hope that these 2.5 years will end quickly so that i can leave this place asap.
