wah la!
and i am still alive! lol miracles do occur. anyway, it is freakin 3.01 in the morning.
and here i am, trying not to fall asleep. dont ask why, it's a tat too complicated to explain

ANYWAY, great news
We finally MOVED!
i now reside at Hougang st. 91, very very close to many of my loved ones -
malini and family, mei mei, vidya(one neighbourhood closer than before la..)

the house is great, a lot more spacious than the chicken coop of a house i used to live in.
but of course great memories i bring with me over to this new place.
the walls are lovely - only cos i painted them, with the help of a beloved friend.
THREE FREAKIN NIGHTS, to paint the whole house.
was a bit tedious cos the creative ideas we had - feature walls, lines, yada yada yada.
only difficult thing is that we have to live with limited furniture as its all only coming on the 23rd of decemeber which wld be just in time for the great x'mas gathering im tryinna plan!
im actually thinking of cooking for all of them - mass murder right, i know.
hope my sister can bail me outta that one - except she doesnt do criminal law. lol

so besides that holidays have been great.
bintan has been postponed to next hols. sigheth. only major disappoinment thus far la
besides that oh yes the BONUS! god bless MOE.
i mean its not THAT great, but it pleases me. lol i dont feel so poor no more! lol

hmmm besides that? oh yes, im apparently still tryinna work on my fitness.
i should la. feel so old when im only 20 years old.
Trying real hard to avoid falling victim to the indian-woman-syndrome! :S

i think that sort of sums it up. shall post new photos of the new place!!
of my BOOOTIFUL paint work. lol
till then,

out!

Facebook

2009-05-08T10:21:00.000-07:00

wahla! I made it back in about a month. lol
Anyway, I is going to dedicate this post to Facebook.

Quite recently, maybe more than recently, a friend mentioned that Facebook runs my life.
Only because, I told him that while studying I would switch to using
Facebook to take breaks.
As the conversation went on I confessed that these breaks occurred about
after every 20 mins of studying. As I was saying it, I realised that eh, thats not called
taking breaks. lol

And so the conversation turned into an arguement as soon as my friend mentioned
that Facebook if absolutely NO USE to anyone.
I KNOW!! You can simply imagine how furious I BECAME!! lol

Then the conversation got very heated and im not going to indulge in the details of it. lol

So after that I started observing the amount of activity going on on Facebook.
And I realised that it does run everybody's life.
Well, atleast the lives of people on my Facebook.

Every second there's a new update on the home page.
Someone does some quiz, someone finds out
how good they are in bed *i love how almost EVERYONE who does that one likes to publish
it.heh.*
someone finds out how old they are suppose to be or when they are supposed to die.
*When i did that one, it said i'll self-fucking-combust. WTH RIGHT? lol*

So yeah, currently its the quiz-mania that seems to have caught on to people on facebook.
Now people have started doing quizzes to gauge how well they know their friends. lol

And what astonished me was that even during exams all of us were so badly hooked onto facebook.

And atleast half the people on my facebook had statuses mentioning how badly hooked they were and how they had to get off facebook and start studying.

Previously friendster, now facebook. I wonder what is coming our way next. I heard something about twitter except I dont fully know what that is about.

As much as all of this appalls me when I sit back and think about it,
I am not going to deny and lie that Facebook has got no grip on me.
Every single day I'm on facebook. It's the first thing I check when I go online.
Not even NIE's Teacher's Portal.
*though that is the set home-page on all our laptops. lol*

Not just that, it has also helped many of us get in touch with old friends. So many of them
I swear and facebook deserves the credit for that.
And yes of course it has helped some people make new friends.
So no doubt about it being a platform for people to expand their social circles
and develop their networks.

Yet, it is fascinating to realise how much of our lives we've dedicated to the internet and all that jazz it offers.

What do you think about it? If you happen to read this, please feel free to share.

Now I better be getting back to Facebook. Need to set a higher score at Bejeweled Blitz. LOL

Night folks,
Out!

what's on your mind?

2009-03-31T05:22:00.000-07:00

And yet again it has been eons..
atleast the blog still exists. I've been thinking alot today. And i feel like putting my thoughts down in words regardless of the fact that no one may actually be reading it. LOL

I was thinking about how easy it is for people to forget the favours they receive from another.
How easy it is for man to get so caught up with daily life that he forgets the simple things that people do for him. Worst still, sometimes we even forget to thank people for these favours.

Thank you.
Two words that go a long long way.

I have alot of people to thank for all that I have with me now. The friend who literally picked me up from the dumps and made sure I do what I deserve and still accompanies me like a shadow to make sure I pick the right path. The friends who always watch my back and cook for me all the time. The friends who tell me what's going on at school when I fail to wake up in the morning for lessons. And the people, who never fail to remind me that I am not alone.

Do you thank the people around you when you should?
But then again, it wont be totally unjustified to say that it is human nature to take things for granted even without realising that we do it. However, when we realise the need to thank someone, it might be a bit too late by then to do so.

We also should not expect people to constantly express their gratitude for the favours we do them. We should not do favours expecting something in return. Nevertheless, the appreciation we receive does add more meaning to what we do for others and motivates us to give more in other ways as well.

I have no idea why I am thinking about this today but, i just felt like sharing it with anyone who might be reading this.

Good day folks!
out!

and after 8 months and 3 days...

2008-06-26T00:50:00.000-07:00

Ah.. It does feel kind of good to be back at this again. Of course yet again, this is not going to go beyond say 5 posts? Suppose i am just not cut out for regular blogging. Anyways, i think i owe my blog an update of what exactly has been going on.

Following the prelims, came the A levels. Mother of all evil in my opinion. Following the A levels, came the screw up of the A levels - judgement day. I must admit, getting grades like BBCCD after having studies in a top - 5 jc (where everyone around you is comparing the number of As) is not the best feeling ever. Well, as they put it, you reap what you sow. So no qualms about that. Expected worst anyways.

Inbetween all of this came an opportunity to relief teach at Queensway Secondary School. Was indeed a lovely experience. So much so, it made me realise how fulfilling a career in teaching could be. Of course, there were also days when i had half the mind to just pack my stuff and never return.

There are some pretty interesting stories i have to share actually. Maybe in the next post. The things that our leaders of tomorrow are capable of are extremely amusing i must say..

Besides that, what else. Oh yes of course - yet another relationship. lol And in very typical sugu fashion - as some of my friends have established by now - this one failed again. But to give myself some credit , i TRIED. VERY VERY HARD. lol Dont want to turn my blog into a narrative soap opera *if such things do exist* by going into the very dramatic details of what actually happened.
However, the MORAL of the story would be... Relationships are (STILL) not my thing.
Sounds way too familiar doesnt it.. lol

Till the next,
Out!

dum di dummm di DUMM..

2007-10-23T21:46:00.000-07:00

been SOOOME time eh.
losing interest AGAIN. haha, we'll see how long more la.

anyways, i am honestly beginning to wonder why i even chose to
go to a JC. i am beginning to think, polytechnic would have been a
far more wise a choice compared to this. maybe i am just too lazy...
ok not MAYBE, i AM too lazy for this. atleast in polytechnic i would have
doing something i WANT to do - mass comm, business or smth.
oh well, no use complaining now ehh, abit tooo LATE anyways.

schoool 'OFFICIALLY' ended about a week ago. graduation ceremony was sucha a drag.
kinda amusing too actually. some band was called down to perform. QUITE sad la..
cos they weren't THAT good. the girl could sing thoughh. tolerable BUT unnecessary.
but yeahh, no tears, no crying, no goodbye HUGS. i mean, we ARE gonna be seeing each other
after this still right?

TWOOO years.
really SHORT compared to what 730.5 days would seem like.
secondary school life was TOTALLY different. the two extra years i suppose made all
difference. there was SO much.. not acadamic wise, that was kinda MINIMAL in my
school. LOL studies were RARELY the focus. back then we could afford that.
was nice.. lol fun Fun loadsa FUN.

hmmm yeah i am done reminiscing.
deepavali is coming up. smack in the MIDDLE of exams. like ALWAYS. lol
my parents are kinda celebrating it big this year. guess cos it's been sometime since
we last celebrated. it's nice.. the spirit of celebration that is kinda overflowing in my house. lol
my ROOM is FLAMINGO RED. kinda SCARY.. but i like it. i picked the colour thinking
it was gonna be something else. but yeahh.. turnedd out otherwise. still its NICE. i think.. lol
the hall is sky blue, and the other rooms are magnolia. kinda COLOURFUL eh. hehe

what else what else?
i dunno. feel real empty depsite all that is physically going on around me these days.

empty? that's not the word.. but yeahh ya know what i mean..
EMPTY. somewhat..

kinda lost, lonely, battered and yeahh WEIRD. haha
nope i am not wallowing in self pity but yeahh feel like talking about it..
not to anyone.. to myself..
you know.. sometimes you feel like something is BUGGING you. your heart feels
kinda HEAVY. yeahh something like that. just not SOMETIMES.
but sort of ALL the TIME. like something is amiss.
i think i know what it is.
sort of atleast and i think thats what's bugging me even more. like why THAT?
i mean..

SUGU NEVER DOES THIS.

ponder about things that are not WORTH
pondering about cos its simply not within my control and yeah..
but noww...
WHYY?

hmmmmm....

FinnaallY..

2007-09-26T05:36:00.000-07:00

phew!
its been long.
and i still have not got tired of blogging.
in fact..
this is my FOURTH POST! haha that is cause to celebrate for me now!

anyways..
so what has been going on now??
prelims. err yeah i do not think i wanna dwell into that.
i am not hoping for much. just to pass everything, really.
that would be somewhat satisfying. sigh lets hope so..
but i am pleased with my GP. finally some sorta improvement.
i mean we have been doing it for almost 12 years noww..
english.. grrr and yet is so goddamn difficult to SCORE la.

anyways, random thoughts but my darling punitha has FINALLY decided to
start using MSN. so much easier to talk to her now.. so hard to catch her free..
council vice-pres all.. so proud of her..
she inspires me i swear..
all that love she has to offer every single living thing she encounters in her life.
how often do we meet such angels like that.
gosh punitha, I LOVE YOU!
yay!

28 days left for A levels.
after which i amm gonna NASLOONIZE myself..
gosh i cannot wait.
that is my sole motivation right now..
everytime i dont feel like looking at my books. i think of my beloved and
tell myself less than 2 months to go!

A levels are the hardest i guess..
education system in singapore is like a pressure cooker man.
(not that it has got any profound effect on me cos i am just too lazy)

and (haha) as amitha puts it,
the local education system makes people MYOPIC.
lol.
well good thing is, she doesnt look bad with spectacles.
pretty nice actually.

what else is there?
vasantham star!
haha.
my lord EBBI is such an ENTERTAINING dude.
sadly his vocal capabilities are kinda minimal.
but stilL!
his performance is so good it kinda overshadows his flaws.
yeahh.
i think he wld make a GOOOD vasantham star.
better then our jagged teeth 'HERO' who
ABSOLUTELY CANNOT SING.
gosh.
my FATHER thinks he is GOOD.
old man is deaf i swear!
oh and BLIND!
(and yes i am ENTITLED TO MY OPINION)

speaking of my daddy..
he has become a BALDY!
haha finally! i kinda coaxed him into it
*pats herself for a job well done*
it was about time i swear.
everything was dropping anyways.
atleast now.
he looks kinda cool.. looks TEN YEARS YOUNGER
he looks like gandhi actually..
but yeah.. next thing we need to do to him..
is fix a goatie..
wooohoo!
my daddy is cool man.
and i LOVE HIM!.
yup

ok that's enough for noww..

out!

malaysia truly asia. =)

2007-09-03T06:11:00.000-07:00

it was a pleasing, quiet and wonderful weekend.
lazing under the sun
by the pool,
cosying up on the couch
sitting through movie marathons,
not forgetting FINGERLICKING good food.
oh and yes.. some studying done.

i am glad i went to malaysia with my motormouth mother,
whiney sister and my kanchiong spider daddy.
my aunt was SO GLAD to see me, she actually CRIED.
i never thought anyone would be so happy to see ME!
oh well, she was definitely worth the 3 hour trip.
thanks to a vehicle breakdown and the wonderful jam we were stuck in
not forgetting...
thanks to the ever efficient immigration officers who take painfully
long to clear passports.
grrr..
security they call it.

AND i certainly hope she'll get well soon. it was sort of upsetting
to see her in so much pain.
and the doctors have yet to diagnose her. gosh.
its been more than a week already!

and i thought medical technology has advanced TREMENDOUSLY.
whatever it is.. i certainly hope she gets proper treatment SOON.
*oof*

anyways now that i have wasted more than 10 hours doing NOTHING.
i am gonna do more the rest of the week to catch up.
right.
i am going to.
i HAVE to. like now.
i WILL. now.
yup. NOW.

ok.
OUT!

whiney.

2007-08-31T08:27:00.000-07:00

back.
surprisingly i still remember that i
had created a blog cos the previous times, i kind
of forgot all about it the next day itself. anyways, i still
havent got any 'general' issue, vaguely interesting, to share so i am
going to devote this post to whining..

things have become such a technical routine right now.
i mean i know that it is part of the PROCESS but still, it offers
no motivation or encouragement. and it doesnt really help when
you're unnecessarily lugging EXCESS emotional baggage around.
i wish i had a choice. actually nope. i KNOW i do have a CHOICE
but for some bizarre ridiculous reason it's just hard to throw aside.
and i think its pretty pointless for me to go around whining to the whole
world about it. i mean at the end of day it is my battle. and only I can do
something about it. yup. only I can. grrr..

well thankfully it doesnt seem to have that detrimental an effect upon
the larger scheme of things but even so... i suppose anyone could do
WITHOUT all of this. but then again, as the QUEEN of SCREW-UPS, not so
surprising that i land myself in what i
land myself in. but its not ENTIRELY my fault.. right?? LOL.

*i love the way i exercise self-pity.*

not just that.. based on all these reflections i have just come to realise that..
i am a bad BAD friend.
probably BAD DAUGHTER
apparently BAD GIRLFRIEND
possibly a BAD STUDENT.
and the list just goes on.
GOSH.
grrr
goddammit. it's orite.. nothing is beyond repair.
it's bad when it could be WORST. so yes some hope left!.

and whining has finally gotten to me.. i sound like an annoying
old woman. oh well, i am pretty darn SURE that there are fellow
beings who share similar sentiments at the current moment.
so i'll seek consolation in that. and yes to you fellow beings!
you're NOT ALONE. lol ok i think i am SLEEPY. but NOPE it's
time for TAGANOMICS. ahh what could be more refreshing than math
at this hour. i know.. COFFEE and COLDPLAY.
PERFECT.

till another (hopefully not as boring) post,
OUT!

vhat doo youu dink yabout dis?

2007-08-29T01:40:00.001-07:00

so i am sitting here wondering what on earth i am doing here,
creating a blog when i am suppose to be mugging my time away
since there are ONLY 64 days left for the A's. well i suppose i've had
too much taganomics. if you're wondering what taganomics is
it just means that ya'll have not been blessed by my beloved math tutor..

MRS. TAG.
i swear she does it like no other. The most dedicated i've seen.
yes mrs tag, WE LOVE MATH. the depressing bit is that i learned
to love it abit too late. cos i lost my 'job' as math rep. i wasnt up to it.
mrs tag has got HIGH expectations ya see. you gotta be REAAAL good or
you're gone. i begged her to give me another chance. but nah-uh she wldnt budge.
damn i say.

now that i am done reflecting over my failure as a math student cum rep.

well, i have created 4 blogs so far. all got deleted cos blogging aint
really my thing. well i chose to try again. see if it works this time round.
(yah right).

if you're wondering why i named it what do you think about this here goes.

(a) i didn't know what to name my blog. as i was thinking this came to my mind

(i) nope i did not invent it
(ii) rishik and amitha did.
(iii) and dont ask WHY cos its a long complex story.

(b) i think rambling about my oh-so-exciting life would just bore you and myself
in the proces so i thought it would make far more sense to talk about issues that are
more general and maybe CONTROVERSIAL. and so you can tell me..
'what (d0) you think about this?'

but yeah right now i should head back to taclking more taganomics.
i'll see you at the next post with something more interesting and perhaps
contentious to talk about..

out!
