Just One Of Those Days

It has been long since I posted something here but I did drop by in this page so many times and each time I did, and clicked "new post" , than I stare at an empty screen, just lost in thoughts, so many issues and stories I want to write here, but its all messed up in my head that it seems so difficult to organize all of it, & than I eventually log out. Today, I thought to myself I shall write down anything that comes to mind. I have been extremely busy in the last two weeks with studies. That apart, I have learned so much about my friends, new things about some of them. As the days go, I am becoming a little timid, funny, I used to be brave last time, never gave a shit about anything, but medicine is really one field that just at times makes you want to run away from everything, despite that I have told myself it is a challenge I have to face. And I think this year is going to fly really fast.So many competitive people around.It is about keeping yourself at the top, you know that constant pressure to be good. In the last two weeks, there was one day I came home crying for some reason that may sound stupid to many yet hurting to some. I fell into the hurting category of course. Thank god, I had someone to hear me cry and that was mum of course.Next comes the family. I think despite all our busy schedule, someone has to take the responsibility to have a gathering and to bring all of us together, otherwise there will always be a distance when we are adults. But, I guess I am lucky in that sense=) We should always care for one another, it does not mean if we are blessed with our own lives the rest is forgotten ( yup, at times you have to poke your nose to keep the rest in a better position). Oh yes, I have a new mission this year, but that I am afraid I can't reveal, but anyways wish me luck=) And, as a child I used to be a movie freak, like a really bad one, at least for Hindi movies. Dad used to get so angry during my secondary school days when he catches me watching movie at 3 in the morning. When I am back for holidays, I could go on watching till 5-6 in the morning, that is how crazy I am. Nowadays, it is the opposite. I hardly even know what are the latest movies playing in the cinema and I feel awkwardly awkward having to go through a 5 minute conversation with my buddies on movies, I would be so glad if I can even survive the first 3 minutes of the talk. To add on to it, I have friends who are taking advantage of my character, it is pretty annoying ( well, it happened today, so I just feel like screaming). I mean it wouldn't take me seconds to tell them off, but yet I don't see the necessity of being nasty, so I just shut up. Just because I never say "no" to most of the things and have been using the word "chill" zillion times , so yeah they eventually think they get to decide what I should be doing. And I think it is really immature that people think like that, you are supposed to be grown-ups, at least act professional! So yeah, that is pretty much most of the things that took place, but not all. The remainder is just meant for me...

That Is What I Call Love

I go weak at my knees, my heart racing,pounding in my chest and feel the change in temperature in my body as I slip unknowingly into my imaginary world. A world full of beautiful things, full of colour, brightness, sunshine and most importantly a world with endless love.

That is exactly how I am when I am into one of those love story books. Did I mention that my favourite pass time is to fantasize? Yup, I think it is the girl in me who goes all weak as I read through the wonderful verses of love. I fall in love along with the characters. Imagining how I would like to end up just like that.How I would want to be swept off my feet just like her? I am a dreamer. Really I am. I have always wondered how it felt to have those strong arms wrapping around me, feeling loved and safe. How it feels to be kissed under the moonlight? Dancing along with him with all the eyes on us. A sort of like a princess but actually a very simple girl with the blessings to be in love.

So yeah, this is just part of the raw soul of mine that I bared here. I am so into the loving mood after reading Judith McNaught's Untill You that it hit me once again how glorious it is to be in love.Don't you agree?

Walking In The Rain

The puddle of water
We both stepped our foot on
Together
Shattered to pieces

The rain drops
Lost its grip
And fell to the muddy ground
As if it was clinging for life
At the tip of the umbrella

The sunset
Colored my surroundings
With orange and a tinge of pink
Felt so joyous
Like I was standing at heaven's door

With the pin drop silence
Only two things was loud to me
One the rain
The other your breath sound
Beautiful
Truly splendid
How the rain brought us together
Sharing an umbrella
Feeling the warmth of your skin
When it rubs against mine
As we try to avoid the puddle of water
Lost our balance
And held on close to each other

We did not say a word
And yet it felt just right
Like this moment was meant for us
A script that was written for us
I just had one wish
That this path would be long enough
For me to enjoy each passing second
And lock them away in my memory

Yesterday,I...

What a blissful morning! After 12 hours of sleep ( I know, I am a natural sleeper , is there such a thing? hehe), I feel so good, bursting with energy. It is almost a month since I shifted, and I am getting use to this place. I discovered a jogging park last week and thought I shall go explore the area. And, I did yesterday morning. It feels soooo good. I love this jogging park-it is filled with people and sort of gives me the feeling like I am in touch with nature with all the jungle like trees and with sounds of the insects and birds. In one corner, there was the aerobics group and the other end the tai-chi group. A real stress free place. After the jog, it was visiting a friend time & than early lunch, and reading the papers while watching High School Musical 2 & Oprah.Because I liked it a lot, I went for jogging again in the evening=) Than I discovered more things. There was a man in the corner who sells hot dog & drinks, there was also couples dating, & a playground “infested” with kids & a photo shot. Yup, a photo shot by a Chinese couple that will be tying the knots soon. She wore the prettiest white wedding gown. All eyes were on her. That’s because we are all in clothes soaked in sweat- a- T shirt & track suit while she on the other hand looked like she got lost among the joggers, thus all the attention. I had a beautiful day. How was yours?

S-U-S-H-I

Now, this is one of my must eat dish each time I am back home-sushi! I know tons of u guys love it. Is it tasty? Well, I wouldn't really classify it as such.So, why do I like it? It is fun to eat! Really it is. Try it if you haven't. The idea of putting the tiny tiny pieces into your mouth along with the wasabi- not only it is fun, plus the wasabi brings out funny and different expressions in all of us.The sauce ( referring to the wasabi, not sure though if that's what its called) gives you the "shooting" sensation. I don't think there are words to describe the feeling unless you give it a try! So do try and let me know how it is.

Caution= For the first timers, please consume a very tiny amount of wasabi! You will see why Chilling out with mum in Sushi King. Chechi joined us after work. I love this place. Besides the dish, the ambiance is definitely the other aspect. Oh and the
moving sushi plates on the table top too!

My spectators.While I eat they watch=) Mum especially, it is so hard to get her to try anything outside-miss fussy pot! I even tried the emotional blackmailing thingy to try getting her to eat like how she use to do to me when I was a kid " Ruby ma, if you love me, you have to eat the vege" Sounds familiar?=) Anyway she tried a pinch of the wasabi and held on to the table,hehe.

The Good Thing About Exams

How was your day? Hope all is well. Yes, you, I am asking you=) So, today I came back 2 hours before the actual time from the hospital.My legs are aching due to the on call yesterday and my eyes is constantly falling "asleep", it is as if they are living in their own world. Both the upper and lower lids just never asks me before meeting up with each other. To add on to that, the sun outside is practically piercing through my skin. Can someone please patch up the ozone layers? And I woke up late today morning + Aunty "flow" came visiting yesterday. So, I was totally exhausted!Now, instead of sleeping, I was reading the papers( felt like I have not read them in ages).Thought of browsing the net before starting my studies. And, with that said, this is where I ended up. Anyway, while studying for my professional exams last year, I sort of got in touch with the artistic person in me. And this is what I created during my holidays, thanx to my exam induced ideas.

( Yes , it is the elephant god- I totally love Him! So how, is this nice?)

I am planning to create more "stuffs" in the future and I am finding the time to start painting once again.Hopefully that happens soon. With that, adiyos! May God fill your life with happiness.
