So clever..

I spoke to Rakhshi after the longest time ever.. And it was one of the most refreshing, most long awaited and.. An absolutely great conversation. Which lasted for 2 and a half hours [Phone, by the way]!

Some of the best bits of today's conversation.. Ahem:

Rakhshi: *Serious tone* There's this guy called Noah, and..

Me: *Passively*.. Does he have a boat?

-------------------

Me: We have houses made of bricks..

Rakhshi: Houses made of Grapes?!


There were loads!! =D But I guess you just had to be on the phone with us.. It was a great conversation, and here's to many more to come!

Revelation - An update

I've been spending a lot more time on the internet recently.. Call me extremely sad and newbie-ish, but it's a whole, massively different world. And I love every bit of it!

YouTube has always been my source of video's and all that stuff.. But I've started to watch movies on it as well.. It's a bit annoying cause it stops in the middle, but it's okay when it's a silly movie that i'm not really interested in anyway..

Ahem, I probably sound really sad, but it's quite amazing, what the internet has, and the depth it goes into! =O

Facebook has become a recent fascination, so to speak. It's so wow, how you can keep in touch with all those people from school[s]. I found so many people who I knew when I was in year 6 - 7. So it's been a refreshing experience! And I think I may continue for a while.. Hi5 however, was a massive let down. I really do hate such social-interacting places - MySpace, Hi5.. so on.. But Facebook is much better than the rest. It took me all of 4 hours to register, look around, add all my bits and bobs and I was on my way. It was complicated initially.. But it wasn't long before I got the hang of it. Unlike Hi5, it doesn't allow outsiders to just look into your profile and get all weird. So that's a definite plus point right there.. But all in all, it's been quite nice. Even though there are the few who were all "Like OMG! I miss you sooo much. How are you?!?! muah xxxx", and get all small-talkish, and it's so obvious that they couldn't care less where you were the past x years, or what you are doing now. I guess it's just poilitness at the end of the day.. But as a whole, I think it's quite good.

Other recent addictions are definitely - TV shows. Moreso, Gilmore girls. I've watched the whole Fifth season in 3 days. Or less. I've been addicted, and am on my way to the sixth! What can I say, it's a brilliant show.. As is Heroes. I've watched most of the episodes of season one, in less than a week as well!! =|

Something else - Never, Ever, EVER watch "Material Girls".. Possibly one of the most.. Poorly acted movies, ever. It was so bad, that even though I was so bored, I found a piece of paper on the floor more interesting. I only watched the first 20 minutes or so and made up my mind about the movie. And even 20 minutes was far too much. It was horrible. Tsk

In other blab..

Three people I know, not that well.. But know.. Are either engaged/married. Oh, and they are 18 - 20 years of age. Scary? Oooh yeah. It's quite strange what is happening all around.. I'm very happy for them, that they've found the right time to be now and all of that.. But it's kind of scary. I mean, that was a thing of you know, my parents time. But to see it back again, is quite.. Ahem. Scary, refreshing but all in all though, I wish them all happiness. [And Fog, i'm no longer 10 =P]

- It's valentines day soon. Something I don't believe in/celebrate or anything. It's just another day for me, apart from the fact that it's my sisters wedding anniversay and my nephew's birthday.. The day is just another day. I don't get the big "hoopla" about the day. It's just.. Unnecessary and.. Actually, I won't get into the whole big rant =P I shall keep it to myself. But I will say, to all those who are in love with someone, don't wait for one silly day in the year to tell them.. However hallmarky that sounds, you have 364 other days in the year, all of which should be spent in telling them how much they mean. *Phew*

Anyhow.. Ta ra to everyone!

Alot of nothing

I've had a pretty busy week, what with all the University stuff, and organising myself for their open days.

It's been really exciting, and a bit nerve-wrecking too! The first open day is for Royal Holloway, on the 14th of Feb. I'm going by myself, and trying to figure my way to there has been quite interesting. After visiting 6 websites, looking at the Great Britain Map, and emailing the person incharge of the open day, I realise that the directions are already there.. On the leaflet provided by the university, which was RIGHT infront of me. Tsk Tsk. And after the w
hole thinking that it'd be a 2+ hour journey from home to there.. I look at the leaflet, and all it says is: "There are frequent services from London Waterloo to Egham [Approximately 40 minutes]".. Did I hit myself? Why ofcourse. I wasted about an hour and half doing all sorts.. I *actually* took out the massivest great britain map book ever. So, my fellow people.. What does this teach you? I'll tell you..

Always *read* ALL information given to you by Universities. However boring/long it may seem.. You'll be surprised how much you can learn about them, just by reading a 2 page leaflet.

Also.. Don't follow my footsteps. *shakes head*

So now that I have all of my offers, all that is left for me is to decide which one I want to go to.. Which I'll only know, once I go visit them personally. =D

Look out world, the most intimidating, most confident, most bestest, most brilliantest, most wonderfulest, most wowest, and most cleverest person is coming through! MAKE WAY!
[I can't pull that off =(]

Ahem..

If I was you, I'd just look out. I'm on the loose.. Be scared, be very scared..
