samedi, juillet 19, 2008 Took a walk down Little India today... .jpg) ... to get my eyebrows threaded, but I wound up buying a 2ndhand Dell 19" LCD monitor for my mother instead.It was a very interesting experience, buying from this shop (shown on the left) - it almost felt like they didn't really want my business. I had to ask them for everything, and I didn't really know if I was disturbing them or not. My mother surmises that they're actually a wholesaler, and I was basically being an annoying pest who wanted to buy only one LCD. My argument against that was - they never said that they were a wholesaler, and they did ask if I was looking for and LCD, and they did entertain me... so I'm going to chalk it up to a whole different culture of buying and selling instead. I also took a walk down to the hotel that used to be my house with my grandmother, before the government repossessed it. It's now called Madras Hotel, on Madras Street. Yep, for those in our audience who don't know, I spent most of my first 4 years in Little India. Here are some photos of my old apartment today: .jpg) Not too bad a day to spend my birthday: remembering where I came from, sort of.
