Shamini will be back! =))

Work didn’t start off with a good note and I am up to my neck with work now. School has started and we all have tons of research and two reports to submit not forgetting a group presentation! It doesn’t help that it takes up 3 nights and 1 Saturday for me(9am-5pm).

The first week hasn’t even passed and I am soo drained.

All I can say now is 2010 has begun and I can’t wait for it to end.

Personally, life has not been looking good also. Sighs. The astrologer said this year until 2011 won’t be good and it seems like it’s coming true!!

But all is not bad..there are sunshine moments like gift exchange with my girls. I love ‘em!

I am trying my best not to go into retail therapy to make me feel good. The word here is trying.

Hope life gets better. =)

I just realised it has been a month since I blogged. Like I always say a lot of things has happened during this mini hiatus. I got nearly 2 weeks of MC because I am now wisdom tooth-less. Yeap, extracted all 4 and I can say I am enjoying the emptiness in my mouth. At least now I won’t get constant throbbing pain at the side of my jaw.

My module has come to an end but not my final report which is currently due on the 28. The only consolation I can say is that is not an individual project. This project is pretty interesting and I’m glad that I got the female lecturer as she gives good feedback. Another thing about working in a group is compromising with each other. We learn new things with new people around. Learn from mistakes and try not to repeat them again. Can’t wait to get my project over and done with.

Attended one of my junior’s wedding. Feels like I am one of those old hags left on the shelves. Hahha. But I love weddings. They are such joyous occasions. But I hate the pre-wedding prep that comes before that. The boyfriend and I was just discussing today as to how much I think we would spend for our wedding. And the thought always bursts the fairytale scene I have in mind. Seems like we will be needing loads and loads of cash once we graduate – for ROM, traditional wedding, to buy a house and renovation. Goodness gracious..but oh wells, that can be all chucked one side at least for now. Right now, is for us to study and graduate!

Met up with the girls at Villa Bali and had a great time. Like I always say, it’s great to see that even though we have grown up and come from different walks of life, we have never changed. We always become those ‘little crazy girls’ when we meet up. I am glad that she has decided to move on and also be the bigger person in forgiving him. No matter how good the man is, there’s always a side that will tempt him to stray. That’s mankind. And I am proud of my friend’s action.

I dyed my hair again and I am loving it. It’s far from the golden monkey brown or blonde. It looks much much decent and way healthy right now. Oh why, it looks nearly black. Think I am going to be sticking by this colour for some time. I hope.

Like Durgz said, sometimes it’s best not to be too close to someone to avoid disappointments. Maybe when we are too close to a person we expect certain things from them; and when it don’t get fulfilled we get upset, disappointed. If we take it as it is, life will be so much more better. There are certain friends whom I have not met for the longest time. Whenever I bump into them, they squeal in delight which of course is a pleasant surprise. Then they go on to say that we all have to meet up this and that. When we finally get to the planning, they have 1001 excuses not to make it. But then when I log into Facebook, they have uploaded pictures of recent outings with other friends. Hmmm… sometimes new media may not be of good use after all. Hahhaa.

2010 will be arriving in a couple of days time. Quite a bit has happened in this year. I finally got my driving license something which I have been wanting to achieve when I was 18yrs old and a couple of things which are too early to say right now. I just hope 2010 will be a better year at least.

I am glad to say I do not want any resolutions for the new year. Life with resolutions is like having your achievements fixed and if you don’t succeed you feel useless. Take things as it comes, learn from mistakes made, embrace the happiness and love that is showered and spend money wisely(something which I shouldn’t be telling as I am the total opposite) haha.

I am not sure if I am going to be blogging anytime soon but if not, happy new year guys!

Exam is over. I blanked out and I feel so disappointed with myself! I could have scored with a paper like that. I am just hoping for the best since there’s equal distribution of marks between my group project, individual project and exam. BUT STILL! But then, there’s something called ‘no point crying over spilt milk’. I am just hoping for the best. sob sob.

I want to go out, anybody free?

I have always disliked exams since young except for English because it was my most preferred subject. Though my course now is not application based but languaged based I am still not looking forward to my exam on Wed. I am not proud to say I have not studied but the thing is I just dislike this particular module! Everyone is so lost. I hope the questions I am expecting turns out for the exam if not I am super dead!

The weekend was great starting off with Friday. Watched Paranormal Activity with the boyfriend and I must say it’s a damn good movie. There are no visible ghosts but the movie and things occuring at night are just plain spooky and disturbing. But the disappointing part was that I heard there are different endings to the movie. Oh well..next on the list is 2012! Sat was off to Thomson to see all the plants and reconnect with nature and evening was off to a Deepavali show at Bedok!  Sun was off to lots of places but the main highlight was to my sec school classmate’s Saras wedding reception. Met up with my girls and was surprised to see my old school teachers! Catching up with the girls after the reception was damn good. I laughed so hard till my head hurt. But it’s all for good. It’s a great feeling  to know that we are still the same even though we have grown. =) We may not be close or may not know exactly what’s going on in each others lives but that doesn’t make us any less of friends. And that to me is what friendship is. No matter what happens, the bond is there. =)

Deepavali has come and gone a really long time ago. I can’t believe the things we had to go buy, the cleaning that has to be done all for that one day when I wasn’t even home most of the day! Anyway I had a great time visiting and eating and catching up. I will never forget how my cousin Haruna and I suffered to sleep at the chalet all because all the beds were taken up and we resulted to sleeping on the floor. Thankfully one of my aunt was sleeping on the mattress so we invited ourselves to rest our heads on it. But that was not all! The damn air-con was directly towards us so basically we were freezing to death. And when finally we had space on the bed, within a blink of an eye, my dad woke me up!!  Anyway, took loads of pics which were uploaded by my dear colleagues and cousins.

My exam’s in a week time and I have not studied! Not forgetting I have functions on the weekends. I am super dead.

I have not met the boyfriend in nearly 2 weeks but it’s all for good. =) He’s has changed. He has decided to be studious. I am so proud of him. Muwahhaha. Finally, a new step has been taken and I really hope all goes well. 2009 has proven to a bit of a successful year for me. I FINALLY managed to strike off something in my Resolution list which has been there since I was 18yrs! Achieved my driving license  mid this year and have been driving around like mad. Sadly which has also caused my savings to be rapidly depeleted. I am so sad. I can safely say I’m broke. Tell me, how sad is this??!! Sighhsss.

Ok thinking mode…

Why do people find for you when they are in trouble/sad? Why do they forget you when they are happy? That’s what I have realised. When people have problems, they have the whole time in the world to talk to you about it. But when everything’s been let out, poof, nothing? It’s only left to you messaging to check if they are ok? That’s the sad reality of humanity I guess. But I know not ALL are like that. It’s just what I have been noticing so far.

I was actually set to let out certain things but I thought to myself , is it really worth it? Afterall, I am wasting all my energy typing on something which I should have known a long time ago. Sometimes I wonder if people’s fate are caused because of them, like do they really deserve it for what’s happening to them?

I should learn not to give out too much because in the end you will be left feeling unappreciated.

Ok enough of negativity around here…

Btw, have anyone of you guys who still exist in my blog watched Paranormal Activity? Gaya said screams guaranteed and it has pushed up my expectations on that movie! I am super duper excited to watch it.

I have to start reading. Miss that ‘me’ time. =(

Can’t wait to meet my girls on Sunday! Picture-taking time!

Can’t wait for 2012. The movie and the year! =)

I still have not done my mani/pedi yet and not forgetting my henna! =(

I just want a mini holiday. hahhaa.. and not forgetting I hate my current module. The lecturer talks to himself and he doesn’t explain properly. sighss.. God bless me.

I am looking for a good camera. Any suggestions/recommendations?

Life has been ok so far.. I wouldn’t say it was the best but neither it was the worst.. it was ok..

Turned 24 last weekend. Thanks to all who wished me =)

Finished my exam and am currently on a month long holiday and the feeling is great. I actually look forward to going to work everyday because I do not have to worry about school (for the time being).

Been indulging in a lot of make-up stuff and I am happy with my purchases. Got a free makeover at STAGE in ION. I ended up looking like a white ghost despite me telling the person I want it to look natural. Sighs. It’s free anyway. But the best part is I ended up spending 9bucks for parking in ION for 2hrs. That’s when my heart broke. =(

Went to catch The Proposal with Durgz. Firstly, we were a couple of minutes of late for the movie because 
1) there was a freaking traffic jam to BKE
2) Cathay Causeway decided not to entertain popcorn orders in the online/phone booking counter which they did previously all because they were short-staffed!
That’s a long sentence. Hah. Ok I digress. Secondly, I booked the seats that were right smack in the middle. So I ended up stepping on a couple of guys legs and I guess it was painful because one of them went ‘OUCH’.. tsk..

Thirdly, the movie was fantabulous! I loved it and so did durgz. We were laughing our heads off. Sandra was damn damn good.. and her body..to die for man.

Met up with Gaya at ION and headed to The Soup Spoon. Though I do not like mushroom soup, I must say it did taste good..but only for a while. =) As usual, we ended up talking till we were the last few left. Looking forward to our min-marathon!

I need to do something about my temper. I don’t want to put the blame on the pills I am on..but yeah..I need to do something about it. Maybe it’s time to do yoga back!

And where’s my green man?!
