Random gibberish

Sorry for the lack of posts lately, things have just been really busy. Between jetting around on my scooter, hand making roti's (an Indian flat bread), hand washing my laundry, working and hanging out with fun people on the weekends, I just haven't had as much time to write. Oh another reason is last week we had many power outages, a few days there was no power for 4 or 5 hours. It would go back on right before I would go to work, so writing was impossible.

Things are good though, been really busy with work and have worked a few 12 hour days. But I have been moved to a Canadian portfolio, and I can't go into too much detail here, but basically I am dealing with Canadian customers, and I have to train the agents on Canadian culture. Which is so much more fun than American culture. But there is really nothing done on Canadian culture so I basically get to develop all the material from scratch, which has been fun but exhausting.

Been hanging out at a few pubs more often, and although they close at midnight here, they are quite fun and reminiscent of the pubs at home (minus the live music). After the pub we head to our favourite restaurant (OK that is a lie, it's the only place open after midnight) for a buffet Indian dinner. Yum! We all load up on chicken and mutton byriani, yummy veg curries and then Indian dessert. Because most of us work the graveyard shift we all stay up until 4 or 5 am anyway.

I've also been cooking a lot, and have now experimented with coconut prawn curry, fish curry, beef curry (i found beef at Q-mart) which is mostly a place to buy many foreign items. I found ground beef, which is difficult to come by in India. many of my friends eat beef, since they aren't Hindu but Christians. Although I have only eaten it a couple of times since I have been here, and don't really miss it all that much, it is still nice to have once in a while.

Well that is about it for now, I will be posting pictures soon of our last weekend adventure. Hope all is well back home and everyone had a great Canada Day.
