Orientation night for TCPJ n TCHT students!

Well well as usual Nadeem got an offer for us to perform on the orientation night for the new intakes during their orientation night party which was held yesterday. For a week..well actually only 4 days we practise a whole new song called halla rei ( ok i dun know e spelling but its from the movie nil and nikki). Nadeem did not know the steps to the song he actually chereographed it as we go along and believe it or not we finished the whole song in 2 days!! The other 2 more days were for practise only and polishing up the steps.
Then with a snap of the fingers, its friday!! It was a tiring day...i slept late on thursday had to wake up for classes on friday then waited for Nadeem and Sneha to join us at college...Practised for a while then i had to run to the Lab to retrieve my IDTP work from my student X drive to find out that i cannot log in and the ICT ppl said they are experiencing some problems and that they are working on it and it will take abt an hour to two! WTH!! so i gave up and decided to redo my work only. Went down waited for them to finish their luch then decided to go and buy the mounting board myself first... Then was already dying to go back so i can rest and get ready for the dance had to wait for Mr Kumar to come down from whereever he was just so he can pass something to Nadeem. Finally when i got back to ridzuan...laze for a while, took shower then tried to curl my hair...BUT unfortunately in all the rush i did not manage too! made a mess out of it so i decided to ask Melanie to help me. Sneha and i went to her place to get our hair and makeup done. Took so long to curl my hair and it was not what i wanted then comes the make up...gosh im cursed le.... I always somehow will face either wardrobe or make up problem when it comes to performing!!!argh!!
This does not mean Wendy or Melanie does a horrible job..they are great!! But i think somehow thick makeup does not go with my face or something...i looked like a ghost after my makeup and i was freaking out already coz i was late.. rushed back to my apartment and had to redo and touch up here and there then finally only im a bit satisfied.... Sneha did her own make up and it was a little bit more elaborate then usual makeup but not really stage makeup so i looked like a prostitude or something...* haih*
Nway we finally got there and gosh...the occasion was grand.!! I felt like i walked into a Prom night! People were so dressed up!!! As in beautiful dresses, heels, and handbags!! and the guys were also nicely dressed up! The area was nicely decorated plus e lanterns for CNY added to the ambience. There was a DJ too...nt bad nt bad. Why din i get that for my orientation!!!hmph!! Anyhow my dance was like e last one but i assume it would be early but I was soooo wrong! The party started like 7 plus and my dance was at 9.30 plus. So basically it was waiting, waiting and more waiting! I was so damn bored and nervous!! At least my friend was there to accompany me through sms....We din really take part in the events coz it more for the new intakes so we just sat around doing nothing... Oh the food there looks great! it was from e hotel school and it was a buffet BUT unfortunately firstly they din know so many would turn up so the food was nt enough and secondly we were performing soon and din wanna dance with a full stomach therefore we din eat. I did not get to try the food and it looks so nice...=s
There were other performances too such as an Indian instrumental thingy...a singing performance by a Korean guy, there was lucky draw too( i din get anything) and this juggling thingy performance by a fellow hotel school student name Keith if im not mistake. He was juggling liquor bottles which were flaming at the bottle's mouth! It was so cool and he looked soooo good! *drool* hehe... then there was an Indian tradisional dance too and finally finally ours!! =P whoa!! the crowd was anticipating something and we gave it to them with a bang! The grand finale!!! hehe... I cant even put it in words my feelings when i was dancing...the cheers, the applauses and the ppl taking videos!! I loved the whole moment.! One of the things i love most to do is performing!!! And this was different somehow coz last time it was all for competitions only and well we were performing for majority Indians only...but this time it was an event in college where soo many diff people were there! so many new faces!!! An opportunity to knw more ppl and be noticed... =P Hey im single, i can look ok!! Then there was free dancing! That was great! We were all dancing and mingling...got to know some of the new intake mass commers...It was all fun! The only sad thing was...the irony...we practise a song for like a week sometimes till 3 weeks or more then when we perform it is for like 5 -7 minutes only and we are done....Its like such a waste...hehe i feel not satisfied and wanna dance more!!! lol...im a dance freak le!!
Then finally rad and all wanna go home already.... But before that DINNER!!! I was starving already by then! So we decided to go Asia Cafe as usual..I went there with Leon and Matt first coz Rad had to fetch Shalini and Sneha back and then they joined up with us...So while waiting we decided to play a round of pool but before i got to play my friend called me and i went out to chat with him..Then finally e guys cames and we had dinner , chatted and then went back...We were all sooo dead tired... oh well im literally relating the whole day's events of last night lol...ooooo so many people came up to us telling us we danced great plus nadeem got more offers!!! yay!! we even got praised in ridzuan while eating!! hehe....
Oh well i wanna go back to sleep now.... sooo tired plus my body's aching!!

Crash: When we are moving at the speed of life, we are bound to collide with each other...


My father brought back this movie which he got from a friend. Said it was very nice and that Oprah recommended it. Oh well let me give you a little bit about this movie for those who have not heard of it.
" A provocative, unflinching look at the complexities of racial conflict in America, CRASH is that rare cinematic event - a film that challenges audiences to question their own prejudices. Diving headlong into the diverse melting pot of the post 9/11 Los Angeles, this compelling urban drama tracks the volatile intersections of a multi-ethnic cast, examining fear and bigotry from multiple perspectives as characters careen in and out of one another's lives. Noone is safe in the battle zones of racial strife. And no one is immune to the simmering rage that sparks violence and changes lives."

A Brentwood housewife who thinks that people of other colours are useless and not dependable then finds out that the only one who is there when she needs help is her maid who is of colour. This got me thinking what really is a friend? A friend is not really a friend till he or she is there for you when you need help, support or just company. A Persian store owner who has everyone thinking that he and his family are Iraqis. How they are being mistreated and insulted. Two police detectives who are also lovers. A black television director and his wife. They were stop by a white police officer for check up just because they are black and the man was humilated to do the drunk test when he did not drink at all and he was forced to watch while the police officer molested his wife while not doing anything in fear of creating a scene. A Mexican locksmith..( oh i love this scene) about a man who works 24/7 n has a daughter who lives in fear of bullets coming through her window for they once lived in a bad neighbourhood. Her dad gave her his "magic" cloak to protect her.

The whole movie revolves around the lives of these people, and how their prejudices lead them to wrong decisions, or their racial discrimination which caused them to live in fear of other races and putting the blame on other people. Makes you think how the world has become.. It's sad to think that there ARE such things going around and IS happening still. Oh well watch the movie and then you would know how i feel right now. Feel free to include comments... WORLD PEACE!!

You wanna know why?! i have exams tmrw and i am still not studying!! nothing going in! Well I woke up today like abt 2 then went down for breakfast/ lunch, then tried to study by e pool with Nadeem and Van finished few chapters but nothing went into my head! then went back showered and went out for dinner with the two, rad n leon...As usual, spend some time there and by e time i got back its like 10 and now look what i am doing?
Arent i smart?? Im soooo freaking lazy by mind just refuse to study! Refuse to take anything in. When i was really young i used to think that my brain was like this box and that it has reached its maximum capasity and that everytime i have to memorise something i have to let go the other memories i have stored up in my brain! lol yea laugh all ya want!! Gosh my brain is overflowing!!! Can i dun study?? yea right...i wont let myself do so anyway....

Oh well music i am currently listening to....Remember me this way!! by jordan hill..from the movie Casper The Friendly Ghost! I LOVE THAT SONG!!! Right now its on replay!! keeps playing over n over again! haih.....*dreamy*

Merry Christmas N a Crappy New Year!!

Well firstly the year 2005 is ending and here comes a new year of 2006. A new year ahead, and god knows what is install for us next year. I know i am already partly there for i have been writing the dates down as 2006 by mistake a couple of times already.

Nway im in my room now, with sappy songs playing and no plans for new year! Im alone n to top it off something bad happened... which totally ruined my day... A good start u might say for year 2006... will the whole year be like this? i dun know!!

Well let me start with the words LOVE IS BLIND! and i so believe in it. (not that i am experiencing it..im saying it from an outsider's point of view) It makes u blind to anything and willing to do anything for it... To maintain it till any other reasonable aspects are blocked out and sometimes friendships are affected. I guess u would say love comes first. Well who am i to say, i have not been in love therefore i would not know how people in love are feeling or why they would sacrifice so much for the other... It just hurts to be the friend who sees the other side to it and feels sorry and the victim of misunderstanding...But what the heck! as i said before i guess LOVE IS BLIND!!

Well MY new year's resolution?! what can that be now?

1. Be my own master. Not be affected by what people say.

2. Not to care so much for i have realise that i am taken for granted and the things i do for people are not appreciated.

3. Focus on getting a Dean's list for every semester! And to finish my diploma with good results

4. Not too think so much and just go with the flow.

5. Be with people who care about me! realise they exist and not wallow in self pity.

6. Do the things i want to do!

7. Ooo get more money... work or earn it..something

8. Go and eat at Italiannies( i think thats how u spell it) at OU

9. er get a car?? lol this is one resolution i cant stick too...

10. Get my life straighten out?

ok the last two is just crap i cant think of anymore for the moment and i wanna make it ten so... i crap! will update it later when i think of anymore!

oh well HAPPY NEW YEAR PEOPLE! for those who are celebrating it with ya loved ones or close friends appreciate it!! u dun know how lucky u r!

Muaks!!!

A Thought For the DAy!

As I woke up today, obviously late in the afternoon, my sleep was disturbed by the glaring sunlight and the heat! Argh!! So I drag myself off bed, got down and urm laze around. Then it was time for lunch and I drove out with my dad and sis along. The weather had changed then, it was cloudy and windy.
Anyhow, while we were having lunch it began to rain heavily, pouring. As we were watching a woman walking slowly to her car under the pouring rain, my dad made a comment… He told us that he came across a magazine article (if he is not mistaken its reader’s digest) saying that it is scientifically proven that even if you walk or run under the rain, you would still get as wet. Is that true? Can I get opinions?
In my opinion, how can one be as wet if you walk or run? I mean would u be less wet if u run? By walking to a destination, it takes up more seconds, therefore you spend longer time under the rain, and then you would get more wet? Isn’t it like that? And the other way round happens, if you run towards your destination, it would take up less time… therefore you wont get as soaking wet as walking. So why this theory from reader’s digest? Anyone there to help me clear this up? Share ya point of view on this. For those who are interested le. I know some would think im too free to ponder on these kinda things, hey mayb I am bored or im just curious! =P

Does Memories Last Forever?

In our life all around us, we are filled with memories. Good or bad they are memories. Do they last? Is it sealed into our brains forever or do we need reminders? Little things such as maybe little pieces of papers with poems, messages or gifts or even a tattoo? It got me thinking on the topic of tattoos, on how far someone will go to tattoo the name or even the face of a loved one onto their bodies. Is it worth it? We all know that tattoos will last for almost forever, it leaves a mark so does it goes to show that your love for that particular person will last forever? What if you break up with that someone? What then will happen to the tattoo? It would just be a mark or even a scar reminding you of the relationship that once was. Well it could be taken on a more positive level, where the tattoo would remind you of the great times you had or it could be a scar or a slap on the face of how horrible and dumb one had been… The irony.. Therefore do people still continue on with it? They do.. Is that love? Is it a symbol of Love? Do we need such things to prove our love?

Missing...Longing are they the same?

Are they the same? In my opinion missing could be defined as missing a love one, relatives, friends, and even a partner but longing…longing would be the sense of loss when the other is not around. It hurts and the need to be in ones arms or presence is stronger then ever. But longing does not come as often and surely as missing.

Longing makes you see small little things that one would not realize or take for granted. Privacy becomes a need and is held sacred. Thoughts grow and expand to unthinkable heights. Things around us seems more clear, we feel the wind, see the setting sky…feel love but not just merely physical, engulfing us in this warm embrace. Yet there seem to be something missing… a void.. an unexplainable feeling..lost? The boundaries of life, the held backs, culture, religion has a part in our decision of life.

Therefore one would never be totally happy and would not be able to do what the heart wants for who would want to be the bad apple of society? The sense of longing is then developed slowly and unconsciously.. Will it be overcomeD? Can it? Longing…It is so hard to properly explain it in words. Something hard to grasp. It is easier to feel it rather then put it in words. Longing…Longing… ( 5th November 2005)

The Wind

16th August 2005
The wind is blowing strongly,
It is getting darker,
my surroundings are not much better
and so is my mood in comparison
like the wind,
I can feel it but yet I cant grasp it;
Smoothly touching my skin,
Undoing my hair;
It is a whirl wind inside;
Beating against the very walls of my heart
Affecting my thoughts; my emotions
Can it be overcome?
Will wind ever stop blowing?
Then only would the whirlwind subside

Just a message
