When the lions roar

3 cheers for our Lions!!!

Honestly a job well done.As agonising as the wait was,the results were well worth it.
I could even sense the tension in Sasikumar’s voice {smiles}
Like I told those at home watching the game with me, I have too weak a heart to deal with the tension surrounding penalty kicks, Which is why I think our lions and those who always step up to take these kicks indeed have real balls {pun intended}
Let me just say at this point that i do not pretend to be one of those girls who appear to understand everything about the game neither am I one of those local Singaporeans who condemn the Sleague or Singapore talent because watching white men from another continent play looks more watch worthy. I have always supported local talent and this time it’s no different and I am not ashamed to stand up for our local teams. Come on if its anything these guys need its our support and not criticism.
So whatever the results were or maybe, lets just keep them going and enough of the “Oh I don’t watch S league because they suck crap”
Because honestly no one appreciates an armchair critic.

Great job guys!!It’s kick ass time.


I watched WATER

Guess who’s flying down to come see me{widest grin ever}

erm..

These full circle moments are getting a tad bit too freaky for me to handle.

The Oscar nominees are officially out and DiCaprio is in for best actor for the movie The Departed. I really hope he wins this. He kicked ass {literally and figuratively} in the movie. And Mark Wahlberg was sooo funny.

Laa dee daa..

I miss jc and my friends big time and a tiny part of me actually misses studying too.I miss memorising history dates and quotations ,I miss trying to decode all my lit authors intentions ,I miss having to read and re read my Econs notes. I actually miss school.



“When I was your age they would say, you could become cops or criminals.
What I’m saying is this when you are facing a loaded gun, what’s the difference?”






Next movie on the list would have to be Blood Diamond.

u laugh when its funny

I loved this movie

And just when you thought Bush was under control, he does it again.18 000 more troops to be sent.. Holy mother of Krishna!
I feel a little sorry for TT Durai. No doubt what he did was wrong but the media publicity he gets.. .One can only imagine the toll it has on his family.

Anyways I never really got down to analysing how 2006 went and how I suppose 2007 would be.So I shall begin..

2006

I can’t quite remember how I even ushered in 2006.Damn
The school year began with LEAP camp and as usual it was another opportunity for a4 to gather and create ruckus. We were best CG after all..{smiles}
Exams, tests, exams,”get your shit together” motivational talks, exams and more tests.
Multiple student breakdowns {I was one of the very few who didn’t loose it}
Literature evenings {haaa memories..}
And finally the much awaited and equally dreaded A levels..
I realised as everyone does after the exam that all the hoo haa was not quite necessary. it was manageable.
Apart from that, my dance classes went fantastically well and I go fantastic news regarding dance as well.
As you can see, this was a year where my social interaction skills reached an all time zilch.
My Aussie trip{smiles for various reasons}

2007
What lies ahead..

My A levels results should be out in about 4to 8 weeks
My University education
My brother’s final year before he becomes a law graduate{one down}
My cussies wedding
2 dance shows
And lots more..I am just too lasy to analyse any further


Did I mention I LOVE The Office because I really DO..

"Wife?What wife?I have no wife."

Suddenly there is so much of hype surrounding The Arena.I must say I was ecstatic when I saw the trailer for this programme. It had like numerous clips of previous debate competitions and my UNCLE was in there. He represented Victoria at some national debate that was televised on telly a good 20 odd years ago. I think my granny might still have the tape though .Anyways I only managed to watch the last 30 minutes or so because I was busy doing something else{uh hum} and I am mighty impressed with Karthik from R.I..In my opinion he was the best speaker there, he was very articulate and it was very easy to understand him as compared to the others.

To Loyang:A job well done.

I and a friend were discussing general affairs when we got stuck at the topic of adultery. Apparently he knows this couple who recently separated {not “divorced”} because while the wife was in a foreign country the husband was busy “cosying” himself up to another younger prettier lady [what are the odds?] And now he completely regrets it and is desperately asking for{ yes you guessed it} a “second chance” According to him, it was a “mistake” and it was something he did not know how to and could not control{ so they say!}

I still don’t get why they do it. And by “they” I don’t just mean men I am fully aware of women cheating on their partners as well. So I asked why?My only typical and naïve reason is simply the fact that they are not getting were they signed up for. And I asked another friend why do you think people willing and consciously engage themselves in infidelity. Her answer was “maybe it’s just the thrill of doing something you know is wrong and getting away with it” Oh yes she would know wouldn’t she? Coming form a girl who has two timed many guys; I decide to accept her view. Her view was substantiated soon enough. I happened to watch Grey’s Anatomy last night and there was this intern {Grey}who questioned her superior if the only reason he kept coming back for one night flings was because of the “thrill chase” So there..
My aunty also let me in into the very shocking details of what goes on amongst married nurses and doctors in the hospital.

Is marriage still an institution?
I desperately hope so..

Love is blind and marriage is the institution for the blind.

School's OUT

Freshly starched blouses and skirts that refuse to sit in place.
Pure and untainted shoes, socks that embrace ankles
Brand new bags and ink filled stationary
Thick Shakespearian readings and
Commentary that makes you go giddy.
Tiny sized fonts that narrate Lenin’s treachery and Napoleon’s glory
Intimidating lecture periods that yearn to enlighten us with complex yet simple concepts
Single file rows and patriotic obligations
Assembly periods that provides one with the much needed cat nap
And provides undisturbed entrance into dreamland
Quizzes, tests and exams that makes your heart pound and sweat glands work overtime
Teachers who become the source for lunchtime gossip
Last but not least, friends that make your world go round and give you a reason to push

Something I am FINALLY done with after 13 years {for the time being at least} and something I am starting to miss..

Random..
I am in love and this time its with a guy who is at least 18000 KM away form me..damn the long distance. He comes complete with a Brit accent, just what I wanted..haaa

I am in the mood for Bhangara

I have a sudden urge to hang out at Timbre

The office is on tonight {whoo hoo}

Teri masti

hello

I am back.

My holiday in Perth was FANTASTIC.I allowed myself to indulge in activities that I never would have tried down here. The best part of the entire trip would have to be Dirt biking at Landsaline,I kicked *** driving the four wheel. It was as the Aussies would say “wikid”{don’t ask me why they spell it like that}My uncle and Aunt also brought me to Burswood Casino.My oh my everything in there was like a scene out of the American series Las Vegas. And I totally get how some of the card games are played and I also tried my luck at some{which by the way didn’t turn up very lucky}I loved the ambiance there not to mention the super cute card dealers behind the counter and the good looking security guys {whoo hooo} The pub I went to was another cool place and their live music was “awesome” {another Aussie word}And I also tried my hand at fishing and as my luck would have it just when I started to steer our boat the damn motor had to crash and we were stranded in the middle of Australind. Despite having an airplane engineer and a car mechanic on board we had to end up getting help the old fashioned way by screaming and waving frantically and eventually getting towed by another boat. I met loads of “cool” people and made many new white friends .In short I truly enjoyed myself.

Oh and guess what movie they showed in the airplane…The Departed. It was fantastic. I would have liked to see more of Mark Wahlberg but nonetheless they rest of them were “****ing” good. No I did not curse on purpose if you had watched the movie you would know why I chose to use that word.

Having said that, nothing beats home. Singapore is still my favourite. I shall upload the pictures when time permits.

Random:
My family pictures which we got professionally taken turned out beautiful. My saree matched all the colours perfectly and I especially love the picture that had my 2 brothers’ stand behind me {double whoo hoo}

I am desperately craving 2point9.Please come down..




Happy 2007 people..
The best is yet to be..
