Exams are over!Christmas is almost here and so's the new year!Woohoo! But I'm down for a minimester next week :(..its a whole semester's class squeezed into 3 weeks. Classes are everyday from mon to fri from 9am to 12.30pm . Tsk. But looking on the brighter side, its ONLY for 3 weeks and finishes kinda early unlike normal sch days..atleast i have the afternoons off. Next semester only starts on Jan 17 and I've till then to do nothing.Christmas is coming!! I like!! Darsh and i are gonna join forces( and money) to get presents for everyone coz we're not exactly in a very financially flourishing period. haiz. But hey, with any 'spill over' money we have after buying the presents, shopping(for ourselves only) is gonna be great coz the sales here are amazing. And yeah, we're not THAT bad coz we're sharing presents ya know...rule is, only adults get shared presents;kids get one from each of us.so there...i can't wait to hit the stores!
Today was the first day after exams..woke up at 9+ and watched tv the whole day.Tom & Jerry, I Love Lucy, Grounded for Life,Full House, Endrum Galaata and Thirai Vimarsanam..
Mali akka, hang in there.Things will get better.Pray.FOR THE RIGHT THINGS. And not for u-know-what.I love u.very much.
Pravin, I dunno if u ever read my blog;but just in case,
Happy Birthday.
To u. u better have enough stories to tell me by the next time i call u!much love..

We had Thanksgiving Dinner on Thursday.It was basically eveyone stuffing their faces with food and talking around the dinner table. Food was YUMMY. I cooked the whole day. Made almost all the dishes(big grin)..with directions from my aunt, of course. After dinner, Santhiyaa, Darshy and I went for a walk and ended up helping a girl looking for her puppy which got lost.Headed back home after that.And slept.Haha...Santhiyaa and me dozed off on my bed and Darshy crawled in the middle shortly after..guess all that food made us so sleepy.
My aunt's dog chewed on my DRIVER'S PERMIT. Yup. It was inside my handbag on the couch. He somehow managed to topple the bag over and rummage through the contents which were strewn all over. The damage wasn't THAT severe, just that the top left portion is missing. I taped back part of it but still couldn't find the other part so I'm guessing he ate it. I really couldn't find it anywhere...
I passed my final driving test!Woohoo! I was all nervous somehow. as if I was getting behind the wheel for the first time. Thankfully, all went well and I passed. Can't wait to get my own car...it'll be like getting wings.
Just came back from watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire..it was alright.I'm not much of a Harry Potter fan so I didn't get all excited. But I still had fun...
To u. I love u too. And miss u loads.

God answered me (not the one on the tagboard.that was vish). Not my prayers either, but my bumper sticker on the previous blog that says, "What next, lord?!" Something worse did come up.Just when I thought things couldn't possibly get worse. I'm not even gonna blog abt it. What did I do to deserve all this huh? I feel f****d up. Depressed. Stressed. Just plain miserable.I WISH I WERE DEAD. Seriously.I mean how strong can a person be? I think I've done a marvelous job surviving here thus far. But I really can do without the extra happenings. Give me a break man. PLEASE. I don't think I can be pushed any further...I'm on the verge of snapping. I just feel like crawling into a corner, crying and staring into space until either I get over this or I just drop dead. This is not me. At all. Gone were the days I was perky, happy, funny, bubbly, teasing someone, doing things I love. My days are so monotonous now. Wake up in the morning, go to school, sit through classes, finish up homework when I get back home, have dinner, continue studying or completing homework then sleep. Day in, day out the same thing. Checking for any new msgs on friendster, my mail, or if someone had tagged me on my blog are about the most exciting events of the day. I'm considered lucky if someone I bother to talk to comes online. SAD. To those who've been motivating and telling me to hang in here, thanks u guys. You people are the reason I'm still clinging on to whatever sanity I may have left. Vish, Darsh, Malz, Yo-garage, Santhiyaa, Caroline, Pv anna, my aunts, my uncle...love u guys a lot. Hopefully I grow out of this...be my old chirpy self. I'll try to pick myself. Yet again. Go on with life pretending nothing ever happened. Maybe then time will fly and I'll be in S'pore before I know it. Wow..That would be good. But yea…high hopes aside. Recover from this damned depression first and do well for my finals. That's my goal for now...

HELP ME GOD.
Last week SUCKED. Big time. I think I'm losing it. And considering the amount of work I have coz my final term exams are in abt 4 weeks, I think its inevitable.Here's the list of crap I went through just last week.
It was 6am. Yet another wretched Monday morning. After hitting the snooze button 4 times, I finally woke up and made it to the bathroom to shower. Just before putting my make-up on, I wiped my face coz water had dripped onto my face from my wet hair. I had just pulled away from the towel when I realized that my right eye was suddenly very blur. I was horrified to realize that I had rubbed my contact lense off my eye! My lenses were permanent ones and they were brand new!I couldn't ask my parents for a new pair, they'd hit the roof.And I couldn't even buy a new pair coz specs and contact lenses are so god damn expensive here.Basically, I was doomed. I quickly dropped on all four and started searching frantically for it in the carpet. And the darn carpet in my room is a RUG carpet. I had to give up halfway coz I was running late for sch,but my aunt came in to help me search for it. I was kinda uncomfortable at the thought that she had to be in my room when I'm not around and that she'd find smth she shouldn't see. Not that I have many things to hide, but I still didn't want anybody going through ALL of my stuff know...throughout the entire day, I was upset. And I din know whether it was because I had lost my contact lenses or bcoz my aunt might prance upon smth. But thank god when I came back I somehow found it. Used a torch and covered every inch of the area i dropped it.
Tuesday.Well tuesday's episode was actually a build up for Wednesday. Still, I got yelled at in the morning and that totally ruined my day. I got yelled at coz I was supposed to pass my aunt my teahers' numbers and I just kept forgetting. She wanted to call 'em just to check how I was doing in class and all. So yea...I was in a very irritable mood the whole day.
Wednesday. The worst day of week. As promised, my aunt called my teacher in the morning. My teacher told her that I had been skipping my classes frequently, never handed in any homework and that I had been failing all my tests and quizes(I passed everything but when my teacher told her this, she thought I had been hiding from her the ones I had failed and only showed the ones I passed).Well, all hell broke loose . My aunt called both my other aunts and told them everything. They all decided to 'talk it out' with me and were suppose to come over in the evening. I had no idea all this drama was going on. I went to class and we had a quiz that day. When I handed in my quiz, my teacher looked at name on it.
Teacher: YOU are Nishalani ah! omg...
Me(all blur): ya...y?
Teacher: Your aunt called me this morning..
Me: yea, she said she would..
Teacher: oh no..
Me: y,what happened?
Teacher: I thought u were somebody else from my another class and told ur aunt that u never came for classes and failed everything and never did ur hw!
Me(on the verge of fainting): Miss B! u've got no idea what u did!
Teacher: I'm extremely sorry, love. I'll write u a letter explaining what happened and u go give that to ur aunt, ok?
Me: ok...I dun believe this...
Teacher(laughs): I'm so sorry...
So she writes me a letter saying that she had mistook me for someone else and that I was doing well in class and all. When my aunt comes back in the evening, I quickly asked her about it. I din wanna wait till she brought it up.Obviuosly she was so angry and upset. But I quickly showed her the letter and cleared things up. The thing that upsetted me most was that she really believed that I would pull off such a thing. As for my other two aunts, they suspected from the beginning that my teacher must have made a mistake. Both of them told me this when I was alone with them on separate occasions. I felt really touched that they had this faith in me. They were still upset and all but somewhere deep down, they knew that I would have never done that. Maybe its bcoz they only migrated here like abt 3,4 yrs ago and knew me alot more better than my other aunt who has been living in US for about 20+ yrs now. But then again, I couldn't blame her. i mean, WHAT ARE THE ODDS that a teacher would actually mistake her student for someone? And that too, a BAD student. 3/4 of the semester is already over and my maths classes are three times a week. Really, how could such a thing actually happen!!!
Thursday. My first class finished at 9.50am and my next class was only at 1pm. For my 1pm class, we had to read a few essays as there was gonna be a quiz on them. So that was what I did during my long break. Read 4 extremely long and boring essays. At abt 12.45pm, when I reached my class, I saw afew of my classmates standing outside the room. One of my friends saw me and said, "Babe, class's cancelled." And he went on and on about what a bitch our teacher was because she hadn't informed us before hand and all. I wasn't even listening to him..I was so pissed! I had a just wasted 3 hrs of my time when I could have gone home and did better stuff!
To all those who might find it funny, take it from me, it really WASN'T. You'd know if you were in my shoes.Things have been so against me lately, I'm so worried about what might happen next. haiz...
To u.well done on the presentation. and i do understand. sorry if i had given u a hard time this morning.

Happy belated Deepavali!
To all those I din call n wish, I'm sorry.It was Halloween night here on the eve of deepz(which would be ur deepz morning) n I was out trick or treating.so yea..
My first halloween.i went to my aunt's hse coz she lives in a huge neighbourhood with lotsa kid. I din exactly go from hse to hse knocking on their doors but i followed my cuz who did. nope, i din have a costume.hehe. the rain spoilt it a little though.din stop till abt 8+. only after that ,the kids started to come. they were sooo cute.especially the little ones.There were witches, princess, angels, batmans, spidermans, draculars and so many others. I gave out alot of candies too. Alot of ppl really took the effort and decorated their front yard with scary stuff. Pumkins, spiders, skeletons, tombstones. I can't for next yr's halloween to come. hopefully its doesn't rain then.still, i had a good time n collected tons of candies and chocs.ohhhhhh...heavenly. Vino and Shreeram, i dunno if u read this but thanks u two!
Deepavali. Mannn this is when i miss home the most. I juz wanna go back for one day for deepavali n come back.Miss my mum's cooking,the shows on tv and the live ones in yishun,the yummies,getting all dressed up,bumping into frens and family at the fair,putting henna on my hands,the $$$..everything. It realli sucks being away at this time of the year.This yr's deepavali was the most boring one i've ever had in my entire life.I WENT TO SCHOOL. Eng class was cancelled that day so I was done with sch early. My aunt picked me up and we went to a Chinese restaurant for a buffet lunch. It was us both and her office ppl(its actually my uncle's company and they work under him).She wanted to give them a treat coz it was deepz n all.they're all indians.(Mali akka, A came too.*I can imagine ur probable reaction now* Good news: He's still yummy looking. Bad news: He has put on quite a bit of weight and din shave). Anyway, the food was really good. Gotta bring Darshy there coz she said she wanted to eat Chinese food when she comes back.So after that, I had driver's ed. BORING. Came home, finished hw and slept.
I've got smth to look forward to this weekend. My aunt's having a huge deepz party. I'll have lotsa work to do but it'll really be fun. Darsh n Dinesh are coming from St. Antonio and Ramesh is coming from Paris.Haven't seen him since i came here. much food, much much dance and much much much fun .yay! I haven't decided wat to wear though...saree or punjabi suit..hmmm
to u. its always happening to us. can't reach each other at the most impt times. sorry if u felt upset that i din call u. i did.promise.y wouldn't i huh.so anyways...happy deepz to u.

~One of my most favourite pictures in the world~
Went to a CHINESE restaurant for lunch today.yes.chinese.we had dim sum.was really yummylicious. but they only had authentic chinese food, not stuff like kway teow or hokkien mee...sigh.still, it was a treat by some family friend i din even know.hehe.so no complains. I'm kinda moody at the moment coz i'm quite tired.contemplating whether to take a nap or not.got tons of hw left.C.R.A.P.
We went to the temple yst.Meenakshi Amman Temple. They were having a Deepavaali fair.Man,Texas really has alot of indians.alot. the place was totally packed. I kept having this funny feeling that i was gonna run into somebody I knew.besides my family members whom i went with, of course. obviously i didn't, but ya know how it is in S'pore when there's a crowd of indians and its inevitable that u run into someone u know.i din even feel stupid looking ard for familiar faces. It was fun at the temple. They were was a bazaar,food tents and firework display . There was also a show where they sang songs and kids,even some adults,did the garba dance. The people here are really sporting.Not the least bit shy to dance in the middle of such a huge crowd. Came back pretty late...dozed off in the car.
To u.Looks like u're upset abt my testi for u-know-who. I seem to be doings things that irritate u as of lately.I'm sorry.Will make it up to u.
