My Apartment in Bangsar Permai Condominiums & Contact Info

Vishen, (founder of MindValley, the company I work for) dropped me off at my apartment. As you can see it's very Westernized. Above are several pictures of my room.


The apartment is fully furnished with a living room set, dining set, dinner plates and utensils, tv, radio, & washing machine. Above is a picture of the livingroom.

Overall, it is more than what I expected. Spacious, furnished, gated with security guards on watch 24/7, there is a pool, gym, racketball room, and of course the location is perfect! 5 minutes to LRT & monorail, and 3 blocks from Bangsar Village (over 70 shops, bars, clubs, restaurants, & coffee shops with wireless hotspots). It literally is in the best area in town!

My address is
17-3-4, Bangsar Permai Condominium,
Jalan Tandok, Bangsar,
59100 Kuala Lumpur
Malaysia

My cell number is +60 017-608-5134
I am also waiting for my Vonage phone to arrive in Atlanta so Sharath can ship to me. When I do get it, I will also have an Atlanta phone number that everyone can call.

AIESEC Malaysia pick me up in KL!

I arrived in the beautiful KL International Airport after over 23 hours in flight(ouch!)

Here you can see AIESEC MC's (Malaysia National Staff). Special thanks to Anisha (the one who has her arm around my shoulder) for being my main contact helping me with the process of getting into Malaysia.

@ the Glen Ivy Spa with Korakot!

Ahhh...how relaxing it was to spend half the day with Korakot at the Spa! This was the best gift I could have received after a long and hectic week of finalizing my plans to KL. Not to mention, it was the same day as my flight! Thanks Ivan for such a sweet gift! Korakot and I really enjoyed it.

Last Day in ATL!

So I'm running like a mad man completing last minute errands! Wow...the day has arrived...and so fast too!

My flight to LA leaves tomorrow afternoon and I stay there for one night. Mainly to see my, Lola. (My sweet grandma who is unfortunately sick at the hospital). I will be staying with my best friend, Korakot.

Karaoke Going Away Party @ SPiCE Restaurant!

I just wanted to give a BIG Thank You to everyone who came to the Karaoke Party on Sunday night! I had an amazing time singing with friends and family!





The Spice family has been so supportive to me and I will miss working with all of you! I have been at Spice for over 4 years, but I feel I will always be part of the Spice family. You are all awesome, beautiful, and hard working people....My best wishes go out to you all. Special Thanks to Chris, Melissa, M, and Natalie for setting up a great party!



To all the AIESECers, especially Missy, Erin, Gaurav, and the current officer team....I had an unforgettable 2 years being part of the organization. We (AIESEC) truly IMPACT lives through exchange! I personally will be one who knows what it's like to be on both sides of this process. I have learned and grown as an individual through my experiences in AIESEC. Hope you all enjoyed the party as much as the Spice Family!=)



To all other Friends....(Sealling, Karsten & Bjorn, Nuper, Tom & Cristina, Asaka, Yumiko, Shinya, Crystal, Divina and the whole GA Tech & GA State crew)...I'm glad you all got to make it out on Sunday night. I wish I can personally see all of you before I leave. Thanks for all the thoughtful gifts and cards!





To my Family...particularly, Dad, Mom, Cecile, Nicole & Sharath. You all mean the world to me! Knowing that you guys support my decisions and always encourage me to be a better person keeps me strong and confident. I think about all of you every day and I ALWAYS give you guys my best wishes! I Love You! Dad, I wish you could have come to the party....Everyone was looking forward to hearing you sing=)

Happy Anniversary!

Sharath and I celebrate more than 3 Years together. I Love You, Sharath!


To the One I Love on Our Anniversary
You are my partner in love
and my soul's truest mate...
You are the sharer of my dreams
and my very best friend on this earth...
Yours is the face I want to grow old with,
and yours is the hand I want to hold
at the end of each day for the rest of my life.

I'm Matched!!

Most of you know that I was an officer of AIESEC @ Georgia Tech, matching students with job opportunities overseas. Over the past 2 years, I have seen how this exchange has impacted lives. I've always wanted to study abroad, but for financial reasons was not able to. . .Now that I have graduated, I feel it is my turn to experience what it's like to live and work in a totally different environment!

A few months before graduation, I began searching for traineeships(paid jobs abroad) through AIESEC. There were so many traineeships that interested me...From Kraft in London to HP in Banglore. Then Missy, my friend and former AIESEC GA Tech President, sent me an email with a description of an amazing opportunity that was said to be "The best AIESEC traineeship ever!"

So after two interviews and a test project given by the company, I am excited to share with you my good news. . . I'm Matched!!
