SCHOOL SEH!!!


Yup, school has started and that means I will only blog like maybe once a week. Hah! Well so far schools been good but the only crappy thing about school is that the effing building is not completed! ARGH! We had a lecture in a room where there was construction work going on! And like the freaking furniture is not in yet so like most of the classes are empty! They said give them 2 more months! Which mean I will be spending an entire term in nothing but cement and white walls!!! Well besides the horrible and utterly disappointing building... projects have started to freaking pile up already! But it is dip year after all but I guess I have chose not to exit at year 3 with a diploma but at year for with a degree instead. So yup... and now I have an extra module, Advertising Comm. Like major DISHK! la... but besides that schools really fun la... I mean after 3 months of rotting, I really missed everyone and now being that Jeya and Renu have started they foundation year too is GREAT! I get to see them all the time!

Will try to take pics of the new campus. It is really really nice la... and HUGE! I am still lost as to where my bloody classes are... But its all in the fun! Sleepless nights and huge eye bags here I come! Oh and if you guys wanna read about the new campus... There was a 2-3 page spread about it on Straight Times Live or Home... can't remember....

HAPPY 42ND BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!


As we all know, Today, 9th of August 2007 is our nation's 42nd birthday... I am watching the absolutely spectacular National Day Parade which is being telecast on all Media Corp Channels.. As much as we do not realise... We have alot to be proud about. Its weird as too how we know what to expect when we watch the NDP's, yet for some reason we still get that sensation when we see our men from the Singapore Armed Forces march onto the Arena accompanied by the the Boys Brigade, NCC, Girl Guides and PAP contingents. If we take time to look back, we have come a pretty long way from being a small fishing village to being one of the 18 most richest countries in the world. But hey.. we could not have done it without you and me... We all play a significant part in our nations growth. I know I am coming off a little rehearsed but it is August 9th. When else can I be patriotic and seem weird right....





!!!HAPPY 42nd BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!!!
May you prosper and grow for many many years to come
And may we as the people of Singapore live hand in hand
The world will write Stories about our country and our people
One People One Nation One Singapore
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

ANOTHER PROUD MOMENT

Every year, Qihua Primary Schools Indian Society organizes a talent show called Vanavil. Students from primary 1 to 6 get to showcase their talents from singing to acting to dancing. So like every other year, my younger sister Aishu took part in the singing category... which I kind of had to coach her through with the mom and the akka.... She sang 'Konjum Mainakaley' which was a pretty hard song to sing especially for a nine year old...




I had to freaking wake up at 7 am on a Saturday la! But my mom told me not to use too much make up... cause it was more a talent competition than a performance kinda thing... Then the mom went about telling me that we should dress traditionally as it was an Indian Cultural Show.... Balls to that la! For starters I cry even when I have to wear a punjabi suit to a temple... Not my thing la... I mean Deepavali and Weddings I understand... But to a school hall where its going to be baking hot....
I don't think soooooo!!!!




Her singing... She almost forgot one of her lines and for like 5 seconds she went quiet and stared at me... and i started singing the line out... She like read my lips and than continued la.. and we kept looking at each other and smiling... so cute.... Sisterly bond seh!!!!

She won SECOND!!! Yay!!! But I personally think that she got second because she almost forgot and she became a little stage fright after that 5 secs and had like 0 movements or expressions while singing... But nevertheless,
I am very very proud of her!!!





Mom with Aishu... yay! yay!
And yes... she wants to take part in next years Vanavil as well...
Maybe she'd get first than!

!!!FISHING!!!

Jeya, has recently picked up this hobby of fishing... I mean he'd spend days and days on end going down with his friends or cousins to fish... And I for one have never done it in my life... So I was like what the hell man... Lets just give it a shot... But also cause he kept asking me to follow him one day...
So yeah I was like... Just ok and see what its like la...

Maybe I may even come to like it. So yup.... And Kunju and Renu were supposed to come but they DIDN'T LAAAAAAAAA!!!! FED UP SEH! But ok la... they will make up for it some other time.... They better.... Yup so we left Woodlands at around 4 in the afternoon and headed down to a fish shop near by to
buy 'LIFE BAIT'! I know I felt so bad la...
but it was all in the name of experience... Here are the picturesssss.......





Sam Raj posing.... Yup well this is where we went to fishhhh!




And to my surprise, the place was extremely beautiful la... Really really quiet and calm and misty but obviously it was humid la! But apart from that the place was
breath taking....





Totally have to go la people! You have to try fishing! Honestly!!!!




Me with my rod!




The bait! Sorry!!!!!




Before the poor fish got hooked on... It was really really overwhelming la... never seen anyone hook a fish on a hook before.... All the vegetarians and Animal Activists out there... Sorry!




Jeya caught the first fish of the day! But he let it go cause it was pre-mature... still a baby! And it clearly states on one of the notice boards that we should let the pre-matured ones go... And so we did.... It was too young to die!





The stupid turtle which kept eating my bait and swimming away!!! IDIOT!



Sam Raj Fishing......



And!!!! TAA DAA! He caught a Fish!!!



I CAUGHT A FISH!!! BUT SADLY NO ONE TOOK A PHOTO OF ME CATCHING MY FIRST FISH EVERRRRRR! :(





So all in all we caught 8 fishes! And I must say it was really fun... never expected it to turn out this way... I mean its like a real bonding session... and the next time I go fishing, I am gonna fish for fun... Where as I let the fishes go instead of bringing them home and making fish sambal like what happened to the 8 fishes above. But I DID NOT EAT IT!

I DON'T LIKE FISH!

HOLLAND VILLAGE

Renu has been looking for a perfect foundation to match her skin tone... And finding the perfect foundation takes time and money... I know cause I was on that hunt once before and I finally found my ideal foundation.... Revlon's Toast. So yeah back to Renu, so one of her friends told her that the body shop down at Holland Village carries a darker range of concealer and liquid foundation to cater to the black community in that area. And being a dark skinned herself she wanted to go check it out la... And my my my!!! The darkest concealer was like my under eye liner's colour la.... Damn black seh! But Renu found her Foundation in shade 9 if I am not wrong... But now... She said that when she perspires the foundation turns patchy! Like so Dishk! I know..... So after we were done with the shopping we were looking for a place to have dinner. Than we saw Thai Express and all of us had not dined there for quite some time... So yup we decided to dig in... and we were too hungry la! We sat outdoor actually but it was fine la... It was like a windy night.. So we took about 20 mins to decide what we wanted and the food took about 15 mins to arrive... Yup.... As we were ordering this random punjabi dude like came up to the table and was like,

"Hi! Don't mean to be rude or anything but my friend said he'd get me a drink if I were to sit with you guys for 5 secs..."

HAHAHAHAHAH! I know... and we were like sure go ahead... and he sat there and he was bloody uncomfortable la... so he counted his 5 secs while we were looking at the menu and was like,

"Ok ladies you guys enjoy your food!"

and I was like,

"Yeah, you enjoy your drink!"

Hilarious!

Anyways here are the pictures.....




Kunju Palay with her huge bowl of Laksa!




Renu with her sweet and sour fish...



Me with my Thai Talay, stir fried mee thingy la...




And we like ordered this side dish, Stuffed Chicken wings... It was really really good la... and the sauce was orgasmastic!

So after dinner and a whole load of crap talking we headed back to the bus stop and it started to rain!!!! And we like had to take the over head bridge which had no freaking shelter la.. So after all the running and getting wet in the rain we reached the bus stop only to find that bus 95 that goes to the Buona Vista's MRT station doesn't come there... So, We randomly took a bus which was going to AMK MRT station instead... I mean like what the hell right... we just need to get to any MRT station to get back to Woodlands anyway! So we boarded the bus the journey was like 45mins!! and it was effing cold la! And we were clueless as to where to get off!




We did what any group of bored females would do...
We cam-whored and bitched about utter rubbish!!!




RENUUUKAAAAAAA!




As you can see Renu lost it...




And Darsh started doing her homework!!!!


Yup.
The new school year is starting in 2 days.
I am effing excited but I am also freaking nervous.
Its my third year.
My Diploma year.
AHHHH!

.XoXo.
