i'm going to start blogging... whimsically.

Because I was just reading this one blog. And it was so enjoyable to read. But I can't MAKE myself blog like that, it has to come naturally otherwise it'd just sound fake and all the secret blog readers floating in cyberspace will have something to bitch about apart from doing nothing else remotely productive.

I had to leave school 2 hours early today cause of a bad back. Went to tampines polyclinic only to find they had closed for lunch. I was hobbling around cause every step hurt.

The muscle relaxants are taking effect so I shall take a nice happy nap (after a shower) now :D

god damn it

I had a life-changing moment in a blog post, and then blogger ate it up.

Sigh.

big toothed person reporting!

Had a lovely day today with the classmates at Ms Lim's house for CNY. Talked nonsense, ate good food, tossed yu sheng, window shopped, took silly neoprints, chilled at Miss You Cafe and called it a day.

I'm going to watch American Pie cause Kenneth left the DVDs in my bag so i'll update proper maybe tomorrow.

I swear I love Grace Kelly by Mika. It's so delightfully happy sounding.

MY BRACES ARE OFF!

YAY!

YAY!

YAY!

YAY!

YAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But my teeth are quite huge hahaha.

i am the suayest of suay, i swear.

I had this big-ass pagoda of all mothers of pimples on Valentine's Day. I did the right thing and I didn't touch it at all. And went down!

And then.

It has reared its ugly (punLOL) once again. What in the fuck la SEEEERIOUSLY. I've been such a good person with my face. Stupid stupid stupid. My face is not getting any better. But it just looks terribly dry cause of the chemical peel.

Had the most hilarious experience with Teng Kuang today. Little did I know the quietest person during lessons is actually eavesdropping. Not that I minded la, it was pretty funny. Had a very open conversation with Fatimah about how i've been feeling the past few days, and she shares the same sentiments as Mon and Raushan.

Oh what a stupid, stupid girl i've been.

*EDIT* i've run out of southpark to watch. But the greedy native americans episode cracks me up like crazy all the time. HA ha ha ha HA ha ha ha HA ha ha ha.

random photos

This is a frog in a tree that looks like it wants to keeeel me.
























This is some sunset at some flying club in some country up north of us.
























This is my one week late valentine's day photo. There's only two people in it. I have no idea who they are, but this is a nice photo :)

I can always rely on Mon to give me words of wisdom. Thank you for always being there for the last 4 years. People say i'm their sense of balance, and you're mine. Thank you.

Like the older brother I never had.

Oh man.

Please fuck off from my life :(

Please.

so i THINK i'm about knee deep in shit right now

But whatever.

The most random people read my blog and it shocks me. Some girl from Texas? Random people from school? It's damn bledy scary and I think my site statistics are lying to me. Cause if there were really so few people reading my blog then there wouldn't be all sorts of reasons for me to get into trouble.

Everything will be fine as long as nobody adds to the problems I already have, as some of you might've read a few entries down. Because nobody has seen Aruna crack... yet. It's not pretty. I may have the tolerance and patience of a rock to put up with some fucktards.

I mean, seriously, why make mountains out of molehills? You waste precious time you can spend being happy. So this and that happened, get over it and move the fuck on. And if you can't? Get over yourself. Don't spend days and days moping over the most trivial things. So the feeling sucks, cry for a day, and get over it! It's quite simple.

Ok i'm good.

1 year ago they were showing the Hot Chick in January according to one of my Jan 2006 entries, and they're showing it again tonight. Channel 5 is indeed sad. Yesterday Yiggers and Surin came over after wanting to go to Foo's House but it was closed. Had lethargic time of Monopoly, Scrabble and watching tv. After falling asleep while Surin watched some soccer, they left at 2am. Surin's wearing the watch! Yay. Take care of it okay! Status symbol okay.

I was reading a year ago that I fall for people very easily. Seems that it's changed now. Settling down? Not really. Just no time for that at all in the first place? Bingo.

Much would be appreciated if I wasn't judged based by the crap you read here. It's just scraping the surface. So if you think you know me based off this blog, you know NOTHING :)

lazy sundays

I woke up this morning thinking it was Tuesday cause it felt like I was sleeping forever. The devastation lasted for a grand total of 4 seconds before I remembered falling asleep watching Southpark last night. I seem to do that quite often. One night, I fell asleep towards the ending of one episode at about 12am and was woken up by my sister... at 1.30am. I can just imagine the hilarity of finding your stupid little sister sleeping with a laptop on her tummy with her hands on the keyboard.

Was having a nonsensical chat with Chang Yuan yesterday about stuff like pronunciation and vitamin C. He brazenly insists he can take better photos than me. Well... Okay. Haha. I'm not saying no. But I quite like his livejournal. It's so whimsical. I've always wanted to blog about the little quirks, bits and bobs in my life, but there's just something about me wanting to blog about everything. Almost everything actually.

Next weekend we've been invited to our tutor's houses for CNY. Despite the new quota on how many times i'm entitled to go out, it's only polite to return the favour and go to their houses. They all made it a point to come to my house, and my whole class will be going to their houses.

Okay this chemistry e-learning module on Chemistry is sucking ass. Not that I can't understand what they're talking about, but it would be tons better if it wasn't online. So many distractions! Roar! And a whole bunch of awesome vintage clothes have been released online too.... Damn it.

hooray for long weekends!

Wait let me finish my oreo first.... Ok done. Listening to the lovely Bebel Gilberto now and spacing out. I feel so calm right now - it's been awhile.

Because I'm messaging Raushan now and I have to get my mind off you, I shall blog about my mad mad night on the 13th of December with Raushan and Raj. Both random schoolmates. People might be going OMG ARUNA HAS OTHER INDIAN FRIENDS APART FROM HER 2ND PERSONALITY so for the record, I now have more indian friends than I ever did throughout my life. No idea why. Maybe it's JC, maybe it was Cambodia, I'll never know for sure. But I digress.

So it all begins when I reach my class chalet (what, you thought my parents would let me spend an entire night out?) in Pasir Ris to drop off my things, change, and leave to meet Raushan at 7.30pm. As usual I was late to reach the MRT station, so I msged Raj whom we were meeting at Bugis that we were gonna be late to meet him cause of me. Hehe.

The train ride was hilarious. Raushan said he wasn't gonna talk to me till we reach Bugis cause we kept arguing from Bedok onwards. But he wasn't very successful with that. Upon reaching Bugis we lauched into yet another argument about where Raj would be waiting for us. I insisted Raj would be at the control area cause that's where everyone waits, and Raushan said he wouldn't be. He was right so there was yet another argument about it.

We walked to El-Sheikh at Baghdad St for some dinner and shisha. They ordered rice meals and I had some wrap thing which was a significantly smaller portion. So they kept calling it a kiddy meal. After picking on my small appetite we got shisha and chilled for awhile. Raj kept getting calls from Aneesa which put him off, while me and Raushan shrugged it off and started tickling each other. Forked out 20 bucks each for the bill then set off for our next destination: Bishan.

Took the train then a bus to Liquid Kitchen in Bishan, cause Raj goes there often, knows the people and has a bottle with less than a cup of Jack Daniels in it left there. After four sambuca shots each Raushan and I stopped, but Raj had 3 shots and a flaming lambo and that did it. The bill came up to a whopping $170 which we were $17 short of paying, and they didn't take NETS. The lady was so sweet and let us off anyway, but we told Raj to pay her back the next time he comes around.

It was about 1am and we couldn't let Raj go home like that, so we walked him home cause he lives 20 mins away. He ended up inviting us over to his house when we were at his void deck and we were too arsed to take a cab so we went up. Drama ensues.

I KO-ed when Raushan started playing Meal or No Meal on Raj's computer while chatting with Aneesa, lying to her and later on enduring her launch into bitching about Raj. And for some reason unbeknownst to me at that point in time, I had someeethinggg to do with it. A whole lot of bullshit happened after that, and it ended yet again with me and Raushan shrugging it off. After talking cock, sleeping a bit and enduring the Raj-Aneesa soap opera, we left his house at 5+.

On the empty train at 6ish we wondered to ourselves how could any couple behave the way they do. I mean seriously. It's one thing to be hopelessly in love, it's another to be a possessive, obsessive, paranoid, mood swinging hypocrite of a retard. I've heard so many variations of the Raj-Aneesa (henceforth named Rajneesa) drama that I guess i'll never know what the true story is. But.... fudge 'em.

SO where was I? The train from City Hall onwards was packed with sleeping zombies for people going to work. I whispered to Raushan, "If in 10 years i'm ever like this, I swear i'll kill myself." It was really sad. Think about it. Every morning waking up before the sun rises (to me this is unethical by the way), showering and dragging your feet to work. Then coming home, sleep for a few then it's the same routine again.

It's not so much the way you commute or what time you wake up, but the fact that there's a chance you'll be stuck with a job you won't like or enjoy at all. And you wake up everday, wishing from that very moment your day was over. I feel like that now going to school, but when I get a job I don't know how I can tahan. And yes, even though I cannot stand the fact I have to wake up before the sun rises, i'm forced to :(

I was hungry so I asked Raushan if he wanted to get some breakfast from McD's. It was almost 7am by the time we reached Tampines so we sat in a very dark and empty Tampines Mall eating and talking cock while enjoying the silence you can never get there once the shops open. I was dead tired and looked like a raccoon with my smudged eyeliner but I made it back to the chalet in one piece. Reached the chalet only to find a bunch of very irritating but adorable classmates either sleeping or not wanting to let me sleep.

So if I could summarise my mad (but toned down in here) night with a picture, it'd be this.























This picture makes me laugh out loud everytime I look at it, and the funny-ass smile on Raushan's face. Raj saw this on our way out of Liquid Kitchen and in a Flaming Lambo-induced stupor, he happily jumped on it after trying to do so on a real bike. And as you can see Raushan wanted a piece of the action too.

I might update about Rajneesa, I might. But I know jackshit about the most bit and i've washed my hands off of the entire ordeal, so maybe not. Stay choooned!

Yay! Got back awhile ago from the 4e2 cum Hadi's farewell barbecue. Took manymany fun photos! I've known Hadi since I was 11 when he stayed 5 mins from me, he was the best class monitor ever and now he's leaving for Sydney.... permanently. He'll come back for holidays but after his degree he's gonna start working there! Oh nooo!

Ah well. Tomorrow's the 2nd appointment to get my face peeled. Was supposed to do it last week but the doctor was conveniently on mc....roar.

Shit it's the middle of the month. I got a shock when I saw my ledger balance. No more online shopping till march! Argh!

It's been exactly one year since our last class bbq. Everyone's all so grown up now... Even Manpreet! He gladly gave every girl a piggy back ride too hahaha. Devin's mellowed down sooo much... No random screaming and yelling of vulgarities. Heck, even Bohan's more friendly towards me! It was all good. Had the BEST time with the girls - I miss them so goddamn much! Argh!

Just read Asri's blog about his Valentine's Day date with the honeypot. He sounds so lovestruck. While reading I felt soo...... awwww and at the same time a slight feeling of longing for something. It was really sweet how he felt about her and the way he put it down in a poem. Haha. HELLO A LEVELS FOCUS FOCUS.

Speaking of focusing, my mom gave me a real talking to about my going out tendencies. So now i've set boundaries for myself (with help from the mom). I'm gonna have fewer late nights out cause she doesn't want it to have repercussions on the next day (i.e me waking up in the afternoon, whole day wasted blahblah etc) but going out in the afternoons are fine. Its reasonable la, considering that she's gonna totally leave me alone once my A's are over. But for now I gotta start mugging :(

Valentine's Day was fun. Received over 10 roses and little presents and about 4 balloons from friends. The day was spent inhaling helium, losing balloons and dying roses. I swear this year's interns are..... *ahem* I won't say it la but it was a badly done job. Gahh. Last year's Valentine's Day was good okay.

I went up to all my chinese friends, shook their hands and said this really fast, "Gong Xi Fa Cai Happy New Year, Xin Nian Kuai Le Wan Shi Ru Yi!" I am the best ok. After A levels i'm going to learn Chinese.

I think the world is ending soon. Can someone invite me to their house for CNY? :D

happy birthday surinkumar!

It's someone's birthday today! Yay. Have a great 19th horz.

I haven't blogged since the 2nd worst day of the week, Thursday! The chem A level practical paper went DAMN well! Seriously. Had a bit of a problem halfway through but it worked out fine. The presentation in the morning went well too! According to people I asked. I went up with no script and when I paused to remember the next part of my script I might've given people the impression I was choking up in sadness. Heheh.

Friday's Road Run was fun shit. The 5 S02 girls walked the entire 3km route and came in last.

Aiya of all times for my mom to get on my nerves.

my week is going pretty BLAH!

That's about it in a nutshell and i've been feeling stressed every day. OCIP presentation to the J1s on tuesday was NERVEWRACKING. Standing up there in front of 800+ J1s with a poorly prepared script and powerpoint slides that didn't tally with what I was saying was making my anxiety mount and I stumbled here and there saying nonsense.

After that though, Mrs Ting said I was so confident! Yay! Hahaha. Tomorrow's the same thing to the J2s which is TONS worse cause random goons I know will be smiling at me trying to make me laugh and I will lose it. And start laughing.

Tomorrow is Chemistry A level practical too. I shall start studying... later. Haha. Cause I studied the whole thing twice over last week and went through it with my friends today. But still a bit blur.
Yesterday was pretty bad. Came home in the evening and saw Ash barging out of the gate and running full on towards me with his fists in the air screaming. I darted out of his way instead of confronting him and he gave up chase and continued running down the road and kicked a honda on his way down. I watched him as he continued down the road while Ma was barking at me to get inside from inside the house. He kept running with his fists raised and scared a lady out of his way.

Ma told me not to bother so I went upstairs and called pa to find him then I showered, and when I came out Aresha was already home.

In between Ash running off and me going upstairs was when Ma was full blown yelling at the new maid. I think she's sweet and needs time to adjust but Ma has outdone herself in making a maid want to leave within a new record time of 4 days :(

After I showered I read the newspaper while Ma and Aresha start yelling at each other about Ash. Ma pissed Aresha off so bad she threw her plate of food on the floor and ran out of the house. Ma went upstairs to shower and I just sat on the porch and cried. With Dog. Whom I shouted at. I'm sorry Dog.

Ma came down and started picking on me for not standing up for her against Aresha and accusing me of being 'everyone's friend by keeping quiet'. WHY! FUCK SERIOUSLY, WHY?

God damn it she just couldn't leave me the fuck alone! I went upstairs and she was all... Run away la! That's what you always do!

I was so pissed off when I reached my room I sent my dad a very angry message. You see, he decided to come home at 6am TWICE over TWO weeks without saying a word and screwed everything the family had together up. How we managed to bond so well last year got all fucked up because he obviously knew Ma was gonna blow up and never let it go.

He calls me right after and says he's gonna divorce my mom, then mockingly tells me I can stay with her and I can kiss my vet science education goodbye.

I'd continue, but it's getting rather late.

yay for skinny jeans!

Yepyepyep I finally bought meself a pair. Black ones from Mango. I know i'm like... 1 year late but screw it. People kept telling me i'd look good in them but when I started shopping online I hadn't visited shops proper in months. So when I did... I bought them! And they look nice! At least I think I do lah.

I did go to Mango like 2 weeks back with Yigang to check them out and the denim ones fit horribly. I went back yesterday and they had black ones so I tried them on and YAY!

So now I just gotta find a way to pull them off without looking emo/minah.

Anyways, I made a new friend! Council senior Amandeep who has the exact same taste in music as me. So now we've started exchanging songs! Lovely. All the brazilian/chillout goodness.

Got the D70s for the weekend, but so far I haven't had time to snap any photos, except some at the beach last Wednesday. Which turned out.... oookay la. I was playing with new settings but I managed to take at least 5 deviantArt-worthy shots. Tomorrow Ash, Aresha, Pa and I are going to a flying club in Malaysia for some business deal. So i'll charge up the camera and hopefully do my deviantwatchers a favour and post something better heheh.

Half my braces are off already! The bottom row. I just got the retainers for them today. The top row is scheduled to come off next next week. Yay! As long as I have them off by my birthday i'm a happy happy person. And I just started this chemical peel treatment for my face that my mom has agreed to sponsor as my birthday present. It'll be fornightly and the intensity of the treatment increases with every visit. It's some acid they put on my face that burns away the top layer of skin each time. It makes my pimples dry up as well as everything else so I was given complementary moisturiser. My mom told the doctor that it'd be good if we could time it as such that the treatment would end before my birthday yet again.

If things go well, I might celebrate my birthday as a totally different looking person. HAHA. Joke joke.

However, slight chance my face will be smooth like a baby's butt. If only. I don't know what will happen la, but I hope for the best :D

I went to the usual cheena place to do my eyebrows. I TOLD her to make it NOT thin, and that's exactly what she didn't do. Sigh.

I can't believe I have to study on a Saturday night. Not sure if I actually would haha.
