Words...

This is a 1st year Architectural design project we had to do. We were supposed to use 50 words that came to mind when we thought of the word TRANSITION to make a picture. Sure mine is (again) Anime-related but what the heck...
It works for me ^^

Sorry, I"m not posting too often. Things have been a little crazy at home, We're leaving to India on the 22nd evening :D and we'll be in Cochin on 23rd morning \m/....
And after four days there, we'll be touring south India. ^^.
Oh also, this summer we're having a graduation party for me and three other cousins of mine who've all passed out of school and will be starting college this year too. It's been a while since the whole family got together. It'll be nice to see everyone again :).
But I'm really really looking forward to going back to college... :)
It'll be great to see everyone again. Man, I've missed those nutjobs :P.
So anyway, I'll post again from India when I can. We don't have a net connection over there so the posts will be far and few until I get to college, at least.
Oh and my results are STILL not out yet -.-.
The professors at our college have been postponing it and postponing in and I've had four sleepless nights already >.<. I'm really sick of waiting for them. I just want to know if I've passed and get it over with -.-
I''ll post again soon <3
Peace

Song on my mind: The Pretender- Foo Fighters

First EVER Payday :D

So yeah, I told you guys about this internship I was doing, yeah? The one I thought I was doing for free and 'for the experience' as my dad put it?
Well in the end I DIDN'T end up doing it for free.
I GOT PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAID :D :D :D \m/ !!!!
And a LOT more than I'd ever thought I'd get for going to the office and goofing off for a whole month :O.
And with one third of the cash I got, I managed to buy a brand new iPod touch.

My baby <3

(The rest of the money goes to my parents as my first salary ^^).
But it sure feels awesome buying things with your own money. And the new iPod is a dream ^_^....
(I'm addicted to this game I downloaded on it called Temple Run ^^")
And yes, I am completely in LOVE with my new iPod...
However, as for it's name, I'm debating between iHop and bunnyPod.
Why?
Here's why...

iHop / bunnyPod

My little sister convinced me to get it.
Every time I look at it, I go 'What was I THINKING? :O' in my head. But at the end of the day, it's still so darn cute :P.
So which one? iHop or bunnyPod?
By the way, my final first year results are out on Wednesday and I'm really freaked. I'm praying I don't get a  supplementary paper :/. Keep your fingers crossed for me :S!!
Peace ;)

I've been messing around on Adobe Photoshop 7 a lot these days... And I gotta say, I'm getting pretty good at it, even if I DO say so meself :P. I mainly experiment at when I'm at work, heh heh ^^".

This is a photoshopped, and cropped pic of me at our college annual day.
Photography credits to Shamik ^^.

Song on my mind: Hungarian Sonata- Richard Clayderman...my sis has been playing it on the piano for the whole of last week....and now it's STUCK in my head -.-

Yo. It's been AGES.
Almost a month, in fact.
So yeah, I've made a draft of this post so many times i lost count. There's actually not much to say. But here's what's happened so far.
1. I made it through my first year of college. Alive.
Woot?
:P
2. I got an internship job here at home, working under a Polish architect. I'm not gonna be paid ( boo hoo :'( )....but it's good experience anyway ^^. It's kinda sad about the no pay thing though. The real reason I wanted a job in the first place was so that I could make some money and buy myself a new iPod, since I lost mine in college (I've kicked myself mentally SO many times after that for being a careless ass -.-).
3. I went into some shopping frenzy and bought myself a WHOLE new wardrobe. I mean, i DID lose 11 kilos so all my old clothes were loose for me. And it feels awesome to actually go shopping and find clothes that fit you :). The only down side is that all my jeans are loose for me now cos I've gone down maybe 4-5 inches around my waist.
Ah well.... I guess I can always buy new jeans too :D
4.College opening got postponed

*Something inside me DIES*
I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY NEED TO POSTPONE It!!! -.-
I want to go back to college :'(
I miss my friends.
Okay, I know this has been the LAMEST post so far...But I really have nothing much to say. Things have just...STOPPED HAPPENING ever since college closed for the summer :/. I might not be updating too often, considering I have absolutely NOTHING of interest to say. But I will when I will, okay?

Song on my mind:Set Fire to the Rain- Adele

This is what kept me going the last three days, when i was going mad working. I laughed till I almost cried XD
I wish I had a couple of these minions. Maybe a foot tall and they'd speak like them.
And I'd make them draft my sheets for me XD XD...
But I'd love them and feed them bananas and kiss them good night :P
You know what I want for christmas, Santa.... now do your thing :P
Peace

Song on my mind: Ba Ba Ba Ba Banana...Potatooooooooooo..... :P XD

Just a month to go...

Aaaand it has been a VERY hectic time since I last posted... I am so sleep deprived and hungry right now, I think I'm gonna cry. There are bags under my eyes. FREAKING PURPLE BAGS!!!
It's the last month of drudgery before college closes for the summer vacations. I'm not very sure what to feel about summer...I'm going home to my parents and sister and I am really Really REALLY looking forward to that.... BUT I also will miss the people here. Life's gonna feel a little empty without this nutcase bunch around me, I guess :/
What kinda sucks is that they'll all be here in India while I'll be back home...Across the Arabian Sea...On familiar Desert Sand again...
Seriously. WHO the HELL goes to Kuwait in the SUMMER?!?! o.O
It goes up to about 50 freaking degrees there! (okay, maybe we have AC./..but it's not like I wanna be stuck home for two months -.-).
My sister's school doesn't close until the end of July so THAT's when I'll get to come back to India :/.
So anyway, a lot of stuff has happened.
For starters, I, like the careless twit I am, LOST. MY. IPOD.
I know. I could kill myself. Really.
So i was thinking,this summer, I could try and intern somewhere or get a job online or something to try and earn some dough for a new one :D. Keep your fingers crossed for me. An iPod-less life is a depressing life :'(.
Then we had our college annual day a few weeks ago. College was awesome the week before the show :D. There were either no classes or if there were, we bunked :P and we got to Jam EVERY day for hours and hours practicing. I was singing for the group song, We Are The World. The cool original version....
And then I was on keyboard for two songs, Viva La Vida-Coldplay and Stop- Buffalo Springfield.

There were four other fourth-year seniors of mine performing with me. (Kinda scary to be the only junior, especially when you're the one making all the mistakes ^^")
Stop was such an awesome song. It sounded SOOOO good! o.O
And we got Viva down after a little practice. I needed the practice.... I've never performed onstage on keys before. Sure, I've sung. And Danced. And done some other stuff. But NEVER played in a band before.
It was AWESOME. :D
BUT.
Our performances got cancelled on the day of the show. The program went on for to long and it got too late. The police came for some reason and in the end, we didn't get to play at all.
I was so nervous the whole day, imagining a lot of stuff about messing up on stage and whatnot...
But messing up on stage and not getting to play at all are two different cases. I'd rather have messed up, to be honest.

This is me on Annual day. A friend was trying to get me to smile and show off my new braces so that he could take a pic but I wasn't gonna let that happen, right?

But just to make him happy, I revealed my metal teeth for maybe 0.3 seconds and he managed to take this -.-.

Damn him and his timing.

I let it slide this time. I kinda like the pic ^^" :P
Oh yeah...I got braces.
Again -.-.
Ew.
And I'll have them for a year.
And I'll have to pull out two teeth.

*depressed*
Hmmm... Apart from that, we've just been our usual retarded selves. Same old crazy stuff with friends...but it never gets old. We surprise ourselves sometimes :P. We've also been having an overload of submissions lately. Exams coming up. i've passed in most but only just. My marks are going way way way way way down the drain as compared to my 12th grade marks. And my mom is sure as hell not gonna be happy with that :/...
Okay, I gotta go. Blogging from the college computer. The bus is probably here, so later!
Peace

Song on my mind:Viva La Vida-Coldplay... That song has been haunting me ever since Annual day. I just wish I'd gotten to play it :'(
