The big "O-9"

So 2009 is here. Funny how this sounds exactly like how I started the previous entry.

But anyway its been a pretty fun week or so since the last post. I had a great new year. Spent new years eve at East Cost Park and I think the flares released by those on the ships look so much more awesome than the fireworks that look like they've just been rinsing and repeating the same old box since god knows when. The flares seem to be ever lasting. Like big red lights just hanging in the sky. I was there with my family, and a few family friends, and it was quite enjoyable.

After that it was an all guys reunion at, surprise surprise, Jons house again. As usual after an awesome dinner provided by Jons mum, we went on to talk loads of cock, and play retarded games. One of them stood out to being the STUPIDEST game I have played in a while. Not because the games retarded. No, Pictionary is quite fun. But when you're playing it with Eugene? You've got a BIG problem. He's got this DUMBASS way of drawing animals. I can't really explain it, but all I know is that we really just couldn't stop laughing. I'll upload them once my handphone stops being cranky and lets me transfer the pictures. After that we played risk till like 5 in the morning. I HATE Risk. I think its really annoying, mainly because I don't like being to expansionist in that game, and it comes right back to bite me in the ass. Then I played a few games of Magic with Jon, and I finally realized that my deck is pretty decent considering that I beat him three times in a row. Of course he was not using his best deck, and I did get lucky a few times, but hey, I'll take that. XD

Friday was even more fun, with the whole SIFAS gang reunion. So after 2 whole sleepless nights, I went (in quite a groggy state) to hang out with the SIFAS gang! Nandita, Bharat, Varun (NOT SONI), Shreya, and Sudarshan. Funny enough, other than Shreya, none of them read this blog! haha. Anyway we had lunch, lots of laughs, and then we went to watch (quite a random decision actually) Seven Pounds, the new Will Smith movie. Here and now, I'd like to say that Rotten Tomatoes is BULLSHIT. They totally rubbished this movie, but let me tell you this, if you can watch this movie and not get emotional and all teary eyed even once? Go see a bloody doctor. It was brilliant. Will Smith acted quite well, and the whole story was really touching. Dont believe the reviewers. Just go watch the damn movie. After the movie, I had to head to the airport to see Bala off (NOT BALAJI) and there I hung out with the cricket dudes for a while, ran into Warran, etc. By the time I reached home, I was ready to collapse. haha.


I just spent Saturday at home, and then Sunday was Sasta Preeti (I think thats how you spell it, so sue me). Its this funny prayer thing I go for at the beginning of every year, mainly because I get to meet most of the SIFAS gang and other friends again. I spent most of the time helping out in the kitchen and talking cricket with everyone there. Then to serving food which was quite difficult considering the number of people. Bleagh.

OH. And btw, I've heard that the results will be out mid-feb this time. God knows why its been pulled forward so much, but yea, that's what I've heard. So I really have to get my ass down to enjoying whatever time I have left. HAHA. OH AND TO ALL TJCIANS WHO ARE NOT IN NS ON THE 13TH, DO GO DOWN FOR OPEN HOUSE! Haha. Miss Kwan told me to get everyone back, and so I have. XD

Well peeps, thats all.

Cheers.







"I’m the oracle in my chest.
Let the guitar scream like a fascist.
Sweat it out, shut your mouth,
Free love on the streets, but
in the alley and I ain’t that cheap, now!

I don’t care what you think,
as long as it’s about me.
The best of us can find happiness,
in misery."
