CountdownKTV Episode 1 was Fantastic. So Was KTV episode 2 this morning - though we were all somewhat tired. I am sorry if I was cranky in any way, was so tired...but still *ahem* I believe some incriminating 'noise' was recorded. After which, my dearest S. and Y. accompanied me to Cold Storage and we yakked while choosing fruits for my Granny. My patient friends! We then walked on to some corner

I love these people, I really do. The Ichee Darlings popped a fabulous surprise by bringing themselves right to my doorstep, not short of a delightful treat that marked the beginning of a new decade. I had to convince myself that this was neither an illusion nor a fabrication of my mind. And though I gave up crying a long time ago,and hence could not shed a tear to show how touched I was - the

The Spring Diaries (VIII)It's amazing how someone so small can make so much bloody noise.The banging of doors, the loud incessant chatter, the brash and insincere fake-it parallel conversations, the 'can-hear-you-even-two- stories-above' inconsistent queen's english accent -are in short, bloody annoying.I admit we are all dramatic at one point, but so much insincerity in such a short form (much

But how many of them genuinely mean it? ---I do... because I understand how comforting it is when you have someone to hear you out. I understand because I know you will always be there if I need you. xxxI extend my help to you tooAnd I love you more than words can say.

Happy New Term Everyone streamed in again, from all parts of the world, to Notts which is seeing more light, much to my delight. Familiar faces sprawled over all parts of the campus, lovely flatmates soon to fill the flat with much jovial cheer and spirit. Not to mention the lovely gals (my soul sisters); the West Entrance of Notts has never been so lively since the last term ended. Though, the

Back from a holiday (A memory from the last part of 2004) It has been a heart-warming and rather bizarre holiday. One moment I was visiting family friends, soaking everything that was synonymous with a traditional English Christmas; another moment I was introduced to an assortment of lovely acquaintances, amidst wine and bacon covered sausages. Drove up to see one of the most beautiful sunsets/

I open the windows and look across and every little pigeon hole like room is dark on a Monday morning and even the trees are bare, thin mean branches forking the scene. So where are my lovely darlings? Probably

What's the date today? Haven't been majorly pissed off in months, but today I am feeling irritable and annoyed at the general state of affairs. It's almost the end of term, save for that annoying tutorial we have next week at some random time; and the crap we have next tuesday that will probably amount to nothing important. Having said that, while I should be giving some sort of nice closure

Lounging Around While I am glad to say that I stay in sobriety all of the time, it's absolutely hilarious to see your friends drift into semi-drunkness, and ramble on about their lives indefinitely. The first test of intoxication is probably when everyone starts screaming at each other for no good reason; followed by nineteen year olds repeating themselves ad nauseam. Then you get slightly
