Volunteered Torture..

...as Kington so very aptly puts it.

Hi.
I finally, finally have Internet here in India, but the connection is soooo slow, that it takes a full half hour to sign into Facebook.
Was on for a bit yesterday, got so irritated that I decided not to come on for the rest of my stay here.
...but wanted to look up autism today, so here I am. :D

I'm keeping a journal of sorts, but it would take too long to publish anything here now, because I'd have to add in pictures.
Goodness knows how many years that would take.

Just wanted to let y'all know I'm still alive, and...I will be back.
;)

Still Not Fixed



Ze computer guy just left.

I told him over the phone that I needed my Bluetooth driver installed, and my webcam adjusted, and my resolution fixed.
So he came.
And sat down, and then proceeded to tell me

a) Eh you don't have a Bluetooth driver.
b) Your webcam is too dark. Must adjust brightness.
c) Wah. Your webpage quite distorted hor.

*smack head*
I KNOW LA. Tats what I told you hor?
I know exactly whats wrong with my laptop. Thats why I called you...to FIX it for me.
There has to be a reason you're the computer-techie-genius and I'm the blur med student.
-___-

Naturally he didnt ask for payment.
(never do anything, what to pay rite?)
Naturally, being me, I didn't ask. (he didn't do anything)
(I tend to be a tad bitchy with ppl who test my patience)
Which basically made everyone in my family go "Omg how can you not ask him if he needs to be paid??"


Like seriously, if he had wanted payment so desperately, he would've mentioned it.
-_-

My aunt ran after him anyway to ask him if he wanted payment, and hes like no need la, I never do anything oso.
...


Why do people not listen to me?





There was something entirely different that I wanted to blog about,
but now I cannot remember what it was.
When I do remember, I shall blog about it.



Meh.

Blackbird





I just watched Public Enemies today.
Johnny Depp ROCKS.
So does Christian Bale, but this time Johnny Depp stole the show la...as always :)
Two of the sexiest men in one very good movie.
Although the soundtrack a bit off...spose they wanted the whole 1933 feel. Could have done better with instrumental though.
Ah well.
Was the acting that counted, and there were no shortcomings there. :D




Transformers tmr then :D




I is still annoyed with me laptop, but nah...shall not repeat.
Like hole in the record (
please tell me y'all have heard of this proverb/idiom/phrase/thingy)




Om nom nom.




Kaftens are like
the most comfortable things ever.
Sooooooooooo nice to wear :D
Me like. :D






I am sleepy, so I think I should stop here before I go on babbling about something totally irrelevant and boring.
Hee.
:)

Aaaaaaaaargh.

Hi.



I am in the worst mood possible.



My laptop crashed on Thursday night,
then I took it to get it reformatted on Friday.
I specifically took it to the shop I bought it from, so that they wouldn't mess up my resolution when they reformatted it.
I hate it when my webpages are all distorted.
The last time I reformatted my laptop, they did a perfect job for me.
Yesterday, the stoooooopid lady there...I duno what she did, and now everythings distorted, she didn't reinstall my webcam and bluetooth drivers, and my laptop shortcuts have disappeared.
And DONT tell me I can adjust resolution through Desktop settings...I know how to do that.




I am so frustrated!
You know how sometimes people just go into meltdown and start throwing random things at walls?
I can fully understand how that must feel now.
I'm soooo tempted to take every expensive thing within my reach and smash it into the wall.
I need to break something.
And scream.



Aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh.




On the other hand, I passed my EOS, and OSCE.
Life could be alot worse.

Baby Body Used For Drug Trafficking

This is the most heartbreaking thing I've read...ever.
Got it through the mail, but I figured I'd rather put it here than forward it to everyone.







This story is extremely sad.

A lady, with her husband, was planning a weekend trip across the Mexican border for a shopping spree.

At the last minute their baby sitter canceled, so they had to bring along their two-year-old son with them.

They had been across the border for about an hour when the baby got free and ran around the corner. The mother went chasing but the boy had disappeared. The mother found a police officer that told her to go to the gate and wait. Not really understanding the instructions, she did as she was told.

About 45 minutes later, a man approached the border carrying the boy. The mother ran to him, grateful that he had been found. When the man realized it was the boy's mother, he dropped the boy and ran.

The police were waiting and got him. The boy was dead. In the (less than) 45 minutes he was missing, he was cut open and all of his insides removed and his body cavity stuffed with COCAINE. The man was going to carry him across the border as if he were asleep. A two-year-old boy, dead, is carded as if he were a piece of trash for somebody's cocaine.

If this story can get out and change one person's mind about what drugs mean to them, we are helping.

The saddest thing about the whole situation is that those persons who suffer are innocent and people we love..


Watch the video.

I cannot think of a title. At all.



I ALWAYS get emo after a while don't I?
I think I have like the worst mood swings on the planet.
T_T





Today was a pretty good day, all in all.
Spent half the day watching Jodhaa Akbar (the movie is
soooooooo loooooooong)
but his acting is superb and hes absolutely gorgeous so I suppose it was half a day well spent ;)



Hot people shouldn't get married and have kids so early -_-

Then watched Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi all over again.
I love hindi movies, have I mentioned that before?
Theyre awesome :D





OH OH
Hugh Dancy is
immensely adorable!
(yes I know I'm like super outdated, so sue me)
British accents are bloody sexy. hee. :D





Aiks.
See I didn't finish the statement above...the emo one.
*ahem*
*starts over*
I ALWAYS get emo after awhile don't I?
And I always ALWAYS end up announcing after a few days, that I shall NOT be emo, and I shall instead be awesome. :D
Being awesome isn't all that easy tho.
But NO, I am NOT emo today.
no no no no. :D







Pandas are the cutest.

I am honoured to be a panda.
haha wtf.





I want to reminisce, but
iffff I do, then this will be a very long post...
...which most of you will either not bother reading,
or will just scan through.
Why waste my own energy kan.
:p





There is one thing I have to clear up tho...I do admit, quite openly at that, that I am not at all a religious person.
I do admit honestly, that I am not too fond of temples.
That does
not, however, make me an Atheist.

I believe in, and love God so much,
so much that you cannot even begin to imagine.
If He were not there for me, to help me, and guide me and protect me every step of the way, I think life itself would hold no meaning anymore
He is my everything.




So no, I do not believe in temples and priests and rituals.
I do not need anyone to pray for me, I am capable of talking to Him myself, and trusting that he would listen to me as well as he would listen to any priest.
I'm not religious.
I'm staunch.
Those are two very different things.





phew.
I hope that didn't scare anyone off.

I think I probably should end here.
Nite nite evvybody. ;)

p.s. My blog posts are becoming increasingly weird, aren't they?




Sunday 5 July 2009

Om nom nom.



I've come to the conclusion that...despite all my constant whining otherwise,
I actually like being single.

Randomness.







I watched this movie today..think it was a Telugu movie, but dubbed in Tamil or smth.
Either way it had subs, so it didn't really matter which language they were talking in.
LOL.
Some black magic/curse/evil-spirit-out-to-take-revenge story.
It wasn't too bad la, alot of CGI, but the storyline was pretty good.
Pretty good acting from the leads and the main supporting actors.
The rest of the cast a bit cacat la, but they don't matter.
I think the villain is hot. :p


Sonu Sood - I think he looks alot like Shakti Kapoor...but most of you probably have no idea what I'm talking about anyway. lol.




I just realised I haven't watched Jodhaa Akbar.
Shall do so tmr. :D




It hasn't quite sunk in yet, you know...the holiday mode and all.
I still keep thinking "okeh vid 15 minutes, then back to work" and then after a while I'll be like "what work?"
Its kinda nice to be able to do nothing the whole day.
I'm going to get bored soon though.







I'm toying with the idea of putting up a video.
Of me playing Yiruma's River Flows in You.
What do you think?
Wanna hear me play? :p





I go watch Confessions of a Shopaholic Now k.
Bai bai.
:D





~vid~

Enough.

I'm sick of jumping like a frightened rabbit every time I hear a noise.

Dear God, I want it to stop.
Please.

Wtf.


I found a dried lime in my room today.

You know the type people use for prayers and spells and what not.

It was buried somewhere behind all my books...all my stuff was in a mess, cos I couldn't be bothered sorting it out before exams.

I dunno la.
I know for sure that I have never done anything to anyone that would warrant jampi-ing me.
Whoever it is la...can't you just fuck off and leave me in peace?

Warning : Emo Post.



For some reason, it takes so little to make me cry nowadays.
Maybe its the stress of exams,
maybe its dealing with the possibility that someone very close to me may be walking out of my life forever.




I've learnt that its possible to be in love with someone for so long, and yet be able to say no to a relationship with them.
I've learnt that people don't change, not even after a few years.
I've learnt that if its possible to discard your feelings for someone easily, it was never love in the first place.

I have fallen in love once in my life.
At the wrong time.
And with the wrong person for me.

And yet,
If I had the chance to turn back time and do it all over again,
I wouldn't change a thing.




Not everything in life is black and white.
You just have to get used to all that gray.

Sleep debt MUST be repaid wei.

Ah well.
I trust completely in God, and leave it to Him to decide which path to put me on.



I have so much that I have rediscovered over this study break,
so much that I want to do,
but I'd pushed everything away until after EOS, and now that EOS is over (finally) I don't quite know where to start.

Working out.
Meeting up with everyone before I leave on the 14th. (esp all the UK peeps)
