hello everyone!
i'm finally back from india (:
first off:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MINMIN!
haha i hope you liked your carebear cake that you've been longing for ever since you were tiny XD even though you had to go get the cake yourself -.-
anyhoo...
my life is
i fell sick about 2hrs before boarding the flight in chennai -.-
and in the plane, the temperature was SUPER FRIKIN COLD.
so much so, i ended up having a temperature of 40degrees
*sigh*
i can barely stand up for 3 minutes without feeling dizzy, thanks to stupid jet lag which suddenly decided to trouble me after 16years of trouble-free air travel.
life's great that way.
whatever.
i'll post soon when i stop feeling dizzy whenever i stare the the white computer screen.

its less than 5 hours to boarding time and my mum still isn't done packing yet.
i swear, this is literally last minute packing.
didn't go back to cedar thanks to my mum.
so i spent my day learning up my scores
and i'm happy to say i've memorised christus and most of confite (:
i just hope i don't forget it by the time i come back to singapore >.<
nothing much to say really.
other than the jellybeans i bought yesterday has some seriously disgusting flavours. there was one that tasted like soap.
but there were nice flavours like grapefruit, lemon and mint (:
ok i think i should go now, before i start talking crap and making no sense.
so byebye everyone
hopefully i don't die of boredom in india.
see you guys when i come back (:

just got back home from a day out with shamini and neerajha
first off, i would like to say something to them:
COULD YOU PLEASE STOP CALLING ME THAT STUPID, UNLGAM, RIDICULOUS, ANNOYING
ok, now that thats done...
i finally got school shoes XD the nice, simple, brown converse i got are LOVE (:
and so are the extra paino shoelaces <3
haha but i'm not changing the shoelaces till the existing white ones get old.
1) i don't want the piano ones to get dirty first
2) i don't think i can lace up the shoes as nice as they are laced up right now >.<.ok FINE i'm a noob. WHATEVER.
anyway, had lunch at pastamania (: yummy chocolate mousse XD
after some window shopping around at forever 21 and other places, i dragged shamini and neerajha to little india to get my eyebrows done. [it was my mum's idea, not mine]
and they kept complaining about it like BABIES.
seriously!
they complained SO much just because we had to climb down the stairs to little india mrt, after threading, because there were no escalators going downwards. need i remind you that climbing downstairs is hardly tiring since gravity does like 70% of the work for you?
and apparently, now i owe them BIG TIME -.-
those two loosu people even sprayed on deodarant once we finished climbing down the [according to neerajha] 500,000 flights of stairs, because they 'didn't want to smell like indians', especially when they were going back to vivo.
NEWSFLASH! you guys ARE indians!
haha those two arh...
but it was like a 'one of a kind' experience for all 3 of us. first time we went to little india without parents.
which was kinda weird. especially since i was wearing shorts. seriously, i felt damn uncomfortable wearing shorts in serangoon.
i just hope shamini's and neerajha's parents don't throw a hissy fit if and when they find out they had been to little india without parental supervision.
oh well...
OH! i got some jelly beans at candy palace on our way to the mrt from vivo. god i haven't had those in so long!
shamini got some sour sweets and marshmellows at minitoons while i got the piano shoelaces.
and we were eating them on the way to the mrt XD
anywho, overall, it was a blast going out with those two again.
especially since the last time i saw shamini was at F.A.R.T.S last year haha
i want to go out with you guys once more before school starts! maybe plaza sing then F.A.R.T.S? shamini, you can have 4 [or maybe even more] nice cups of falila's coffee XD
just no random singing, or dancing, or singing AND dancing outbursts anymore please.
one can only suffer so much embarrassment!
oh and no more name calling. i need not be reminded that i am [unfortunately] vertically challenged, every 4 minutes. go pick someone your own size XD
lol now i'm blogging while helping my mum pack.
i never knew i needed to spend SO much time to pack for a 9 day trip to india [my mum has repacked the suitcase AT LEAST 3 times]
ok, i better go before my mum kills me for not fetching her random stuff from all over the house.
i'll update tomorrow, before leaving for india (:
here's a long over-due random picture...
this is almost how my new shoes look like (:Ysunanda
10:36 AM
can i not go to india? please?
i know i sound like a spoilt brat [which i am not, thank you very much]
but i really have no interest whatsoever to go to india. or anywhere overseas for that matter.
and i know, as a cousin, its my duty to be there for arjun's poonal, but still
i barely even talk to him or mithun, much less keep in touch and communicate through msn.
and deepa isn't going to be in chennai at all ):
i just want this trip to be over and done with as quick as possible.
i've got absolutely nothing to do while i rot in my grandparents' house.
seriously.
no music, since my ipod is corrupt; has been since 2 years ago.
i can't even learn up my scores becasue the isn't ANY form of musical instrument in that house, much less a keyboard/piano.
no internet, which is typical in india. and even if there WAS internet in the house, it would take HOURS for the dial up, and 5 minutes after the connection is established, it will be lost -.-
so, the gods have doomed me to an uneventful, dull and boring stay in india this time round.
although, i'll be shopping for a new eastern wardrobe (:
so thats a plus XD
ok gotta go get ready now. meeting shamini and neerajha at vivo (:

i officially suck.
HAPPY
how could i forget to dedicate may xuen a post on her 17th birthday?!
terrible sunanda!
haha sounds like something tan mei mei would say XD although, she would have probably said 'sunanda barawaj' instead
yes i know my surname is 'baradwaj' but ms tan never pronounced it with a 'd'
haha i miss her and her antics. like calling us raisins and geese and whatnot.
awesome teacher she was (:
anyway, i realised i'll be coming back from india on minmin's birthday!
wth?
how to wish her at 12am you tell me?
sorry yi min ): i'll buy you something nice from india haha XD
met sherri at the bus stop outside vj this afternoon, since her string ensemb. prac was also at 3pm (: congratulations baluku! now we have to wait for sonam and may xuen (:
then met cheryl at the concourse and prac started.
felt good to be singing in vj choir again, even if it was only a 2 week break from it.
reached home at about 8 after practice with a bit of a headache.
oh! i'm probably going to go back to cedar on friday to visit the choir (:
that, and i have to go find my non-limelight choir file. its probably sitting in one of the class pigeon holes.
anyway, thats it for now. gotta go pack for india trip, which i'm not exactly looking forward to >.<
oh! and theEIGHT i don't think i can make it for both ecp/sentosa
i need to pack! *shields herself from the random tomatoes and pointy objects thrown by theEIGHT*
haha sorry lurr
i'll make it up to you guys someday!

another awful start of the day. and i'm sure there will be many more to follow.
so many things have turned upside down in just a matter of minutes.
things have changed for the worse, and it hasn't even been 2 weeks since the new year started.
and its partly my fault for allowing this to happen.
i guess i shouldn't bore you with the insignificant details about my soon-to-be tragic life.
things to look forward to:
1)12th jan[need i say more?]
2)15th jan outing with my lovelies (:
OH! speaking of them, SOLEIL MAHANI AHMAD KAMIL ! i DO know where panama is ok? i'm not the one who thought chek jawa was in indonesia XD
lol
haven't seen ALL seven of you in such a LONGGGGGGG time. can't wait to see you on
and i realised, i've suddenly taken a liking to drag the last letter of each word.
like thisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
hm...
must be a phase
anywho, i've realised how much this blog helps me. i came here feeling so [as neerajha would put it] bleah.
but now that i've blogged, i feel a lot better, though i didn't really blog much XD
like some kind of therapy session. HAHA[inside joke].
ok, gotta go have lunch.
post later maybe (:

i'm in a MUCH better mood now (:
went to PS and meet the maths tuition people, minus shruthi[who fell sick this morning] and jessica.
lunched at pastamania first, then shopped a bit for shoes and presents.
head to the whatever place to play pool.
haha i have no clue as to what the name of the place is.
anyway, we had fun, even though sometimes we just anyhow play XD
came home at around 4 and didn't do much.
planning for 15th jan outing. i hope there aren't anymore last minute changes =P
going to the temple now. last time i'm going to the temple before results. i'm going to pray hard for all of us, especially theEIGHT.
ok gotta go
ciao (:

i walked my neighbours dog yesterday (:
haha so funn! went up to the roof-top garden to walk her. such a sweet and obedient dog XD very playful too (:
when i returned the sweetie to my neighbour she paid me like $5. HAHA
i was like o.O
she refused to let me go if i didn't take the money.
i came back home and my mum was like 'eh. everyday go and walk all the neighbours dogs. then you can earn money'
hmmm...i see a plan evolving.
anyway, tomorrow i'll be going out with maths tuition people (: haven't seen them since Os
meeting them at plaza sing [again]. lunching, then playing pool nearby.
realised i've been playing pool quite a lot these days...
...
as you can tell, there's nothing much to blog about.
results on 12th and i'm leaving for india on 16th.
DAMN.
i hope my nosy relatives don't kpo kpo about my O levels.
OH! and my dad's going to be overseas on the 12th! psle that time also he was overseas!
ugh.
i'm going to sue his company one day.
but i guess in a way, its a good thing. because, honestly, my dad doesn't know when to shut up when it comes to my studies. he think he knows so much about the education system in singapore.
in the end, we always end up in an argument, and we'll both be in a terrible mood after that. so i'm in a way glad daddy's not going to be here on the 12th.
but as much as i hate stuff about him, i still love him to the max (: so its kinda sad knowing he won't be able to be there when i get my results ):
nothing else to post about.
see you around (:

it states:
'The Ministry of Education said the results of the 2008 GCE O-Level Examination will be released on January 12.

http://www.seab.gov.sg/SEAB/eservices/oLevelResults.html
'Results for the 2008 GCE O-Level examination will be released on 12 Jan 2009 ( 2.00 pm ).'

haven't updated in a while.
baking cookies on sunday with mei xuan and vanessa was fun.
monday went to plaza sing to meet up with annmarie, may xuen, rena and sonam. then split up to watch australia/play pool. it was nice seeing them after a while.
today was year0[year1 already lah] outing. damn fun. although i was the suckiest amongst everyone else in blading. thank you ruby for being the MOST PATIENT person ever! if i were you i would have pang seh-ed me a long time ago.
fell down countless times. felt like a baby learning to walk.
lunch at subway after blading. then bowling. then left to ang mo kio for gathering.
as you can probably tell, i'm not in the best of moods. hence the short post.
to a certain asshole:
go to hell. if you're going to act like that forever then fine, be that way. i can't help but to think how foolish it was of me to fall for your tricks. some people just never change. i thought you had, but i guess i thought wrong. i would absolutely love it if you weren't a part of my life anymore. good riddance. just get the hell away from me, and stay there. goodbye.
to a certain someone:
i'm sorry i let you down. i couldn't find the spirit to push further. i'm sorry i didn't give it my best. i hope i didn't disappoint you too much. i promise next time, i will be better than before. next time, i will somehow pluck up my courage and give it my all. thanks for being so patient and understanding with me. i really appreciate it.

3) stop slacking and start working hard
4) be punctual in everything, be it work or choir
5) stop spending money unnecessarily and learn to appreciate the effort my dad puts in to earn the money
6) be organised
7) have more determination and willpower, especially when it comes to studying
8) stay focused and on task when i'm doing something
9) lose weight
10) be more studious, but have fun at the same time
11) be more selfless
12) stop going online and pestering people with my randomness when i've had too much chocolate to eat
i've decided to post my resolutions on my blog.
not so other people can read and whatnot.
it serves as a reminder for me, to keep those promises i made to myself.
at the end of this year, i want to be able to look at this list with every resolution, or at least most of them, cancelled off.
so cheers to me, and all those who bothered to draw up some resolutions and intend to stick to them (:

HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS!!!
haha i know its a little late, but still.
the party at my friend's house was kinda boring at first. but it got better later.
OH! and champagne tastes EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
seriously.
my mum let me try 2 sips and i was like O.O
haha and red wine smells like normal grape juice left open for 3weeks.
and i was high on chocolate. there was chocolate fondue and this pinata[sp?] FILLED with chocolate as well.
haha
by the time i reached home it was around 3am.
and i stayed up until 7am, chatting with people and watching 'bedtime stories' online.
i would have stayed up longer, but my mum got up and caught me on the comp and made me go to sleep -.-
haha i went to bed when the sun was rising.
i realised something.
it doesn't exactly feel like a new year yet.
i think its because usually the start of a new year also means another 'first day of school'. but since this year school only starts on 2nd february, right now i am sitting happily in front of the computer instead of frantically trying to finish the final bits of my holiday homework, and packing my bag for the new school year.
i'm really looking forward to this new year. waiting to see whats in store for me.
and i'm not feeling depressed about having to move on anymore.
a special friend told me once that i should never be afraid to move on, and that i should not give myself excuses to escape from reality.
i should learn to embrace the future and not hide from it, just because i fear losing everything good that i have.
i should stop brooding over the past, as my friend so nicely put it.
and now that i think about it, i've given SO many people this exact same advice before, although, the context was slightly different.
i always tell my friends and classmates, especially during the O level period, not to think about the papers that they think they have done badly in. that dwelling over the papers that have already been done, was a waste of time. i told them to focus on the future papers, concentrate on getting the distinction in the papers to come.
i guess i should have applied that to my own situation.
the past is past. and nothing i do can change that.
but i should always keep the sweet memories with me, wherever i go, and at the same time, embrace the changes in life and make the best out of them.
thanks to my friend for helping me loads. you've really been a wonderful listener (:
today was spent shopping with my family.
and i spent more than $300 on MYSELF.
and now i feel guilty.
one of my purchases was a swatch watch. i told my parents to make it their super-early birthday gift to me for 2009.
and although i seldom splurge on myself, i still feel quite awful for spending so much money.
so i've made it one of my new years resolutions to spend money wisely. like REALLY wisely.
it seems so easy just to spend our parents money. whereas, our parents toil so hard to earn it.
and since i didn't take up a job this holiday, i will be even more mindful of how i spend my money.
ok, enough of feeling guilty.
today i had fun with my parents and my sister.
it was an awesome time (:
i'm so glad i spent my new year's day with my dad, mum and sister (: i wouldn't trade them for anything in the world (:
and i'm NOT saying this because they let me buy stuff -.-
i really hope all of you guys spent today with those whom you love dearly(:
and with that, i'm off to bed.
i want to wake up to say bye to my sister when she goes to school for her first day of primary 6 (:
i'll post tomorrow maybe.
till then, i wish you guys a WONDERFUL, PROSPEROUS and HAPPY NEW YEAR (:
love you guys (:
