Chumi Lakshmi

i’ve been so busy the past week…enjoying my holidays n shopping…hahaha!!! i think the last time i went on a holiday with the whole family was when i was in primary school…we’ve been planning to go somewhere every year when mum n i come to india….but things dont work out the way we plan..cos something unexpected comes up each time….like someone wont be able to make it or, we dont have enough time…. but this time, we really made it a point to go around bangalore n mysore….though all the families weren’t able to make it…..my aunt came from chennai with her 2 daughters to bangalore to join my mum n me….then hired a Tavera Chevrolet n went around bangalore n maysore for 2 days n got a smaller car the 3rd day to go shopping in bangalore…. i’ve been in bangalore for 1 n 1/2 a year now…n i still didnt know anything about the tourists spots n landmarks here….so, had to hire a tourist guide n a vehicle….:p…anyway, after such a long time, i finally saw parts of bangalore, which is other than my c...

Dooms day wasnt too bad…:p i got my results 2 days after that actually….eerr….like i said…results wasnt too bad…but nothing to shout about too….so, i dunno wat else to say about my results… anyway, havent been doing much off late…am happily going out shopping with mum almost everyday…n eating out all the time!! :D its only been 2 weeks since college started…n i’m stuck with loads of assignments and project works already…not only that…my lecturers have managed to come up with even more work to do during the so called holidays which is next week…. we only have exactly 1 week of break next week…n that too with christmas n new year…how on earth can they expect us to do so much of work during that time!!! n d lecturers say its a 2 week break for us…my ass!!! well…there’s no point in arguing about it or cribbing about it…cos nothing’s gonna happen…that’s indian education n educators for u!! i better log off and start doing my assignments!! n i guess t he next time i blog will only be after n...

ok, i’m officially a gonner tomorrow… i just heard from a friend that my 3rd sem results are gonna be out tomorrow…..its no problem that i’ll be getting my results tomorrow…sooner or later i will have to check my results anyway …d problem now is that my mum is rite here with me in bangalore….!! it would have been so much easier if mum was at home n i had to tell her my results over d phone….i wonder how it;s gonna be tomorrow…. :( i am so freaking here….but i dont seem to be showing it…it happens all the time….especially before the exams!! even if i havent studied a single word for any of my exams…i would look as if i’m so confident of score 100 on 100!! n everyone thinks that i’ll raise all of them!! i am so dead tomorrow….n yet i dont seem to care!! GOD HELP ME!!! well, i’m not sure if i’ll be blogging tomorrow…or any time in the near future….till d next time…bye ppl….

i just found out that one of my cousin brother is engaged to get married to another relative of mine who’s also a friend…. she’s not a very close friend…but found out that we were related (thanks to friendster…:)….) it makes me wonder how closely related each n everyone of us are here in friendster…..n how small d world can get… when i heard from Vid that my cousin bro was engaged….i thought it must have been someone from india…but then she told me that girl is a malaysian…n that she was in friendster…. ahahha…i’m still shocked at how small d world is…it’ll take me some time to get over it….its been some time since i had this kindda plesaent shock….:) n by the way…Subbu anna…if u r reading this….i’ll come to u when i need help in my relationship!! hahahaha!! i’m serious k…!! :P

i see colours everywhere!! i’m going so crazy about bangles now!! hahaahha… i spent more than 2 hours yesterday arranging n rearranging all my bangles, n took loads of pictures from every possible angles …hahahahah even my mum was so jobless, helping me to arrange everything, n told me to take piccies from different angles….hehehehe… this is d height of boredom!!! d doctor told me not to strain my eyes…so, my mum told me not to go online, or read books….n since i wasnt sleepy…i started doing this….n even my mum didnt sleep because of me….heheheheh…. anyway, i was more than pleased to be able to use my photography skills to use……n i wanna share it with everyone….but i can possible upload some 30 pics of my bangles alone….hehehe….so, i’ve uploaded only a few in friendster…. anyway, i got to go now…i shouldnt be staring at d comp screen for too long if i wanna go to college tomorrow…. bye

Anyway, am getting better already now….i dont wanna get sick anymore!! i’ve had enough of medicines n injections n tablets, n restrictions!! n i havent been sleeping much off late…..i’m surprised with myself… i wake up at all odd hours of the nite, n cant get back to sleep again..n i dont even feel sleepy in d afternoon…because of that, ppl say i look ver...

I’ve had so many dreams off late….eerr…within this past 2 weeks…. I’m not d kind of person who usually dreams…Normally, when I wake up in the morning, I remember that I dreamt something, but I wouldn’t know wat exactly it was. If I remember any of my dreams..its usually very stupid and impractical ( I get weird dreams when I’m dead tired or when I have lots of things in my mind…it’s a way to laugh at myself n relax a little bit I think..:p)……or I only remember it when it happens…it feels as if I rewind and play that few minutes in my life…cos I would have dreamt about exactly that situation ….. at first it was kindda scary…but then I got used to it…but my mum took some time…hhaha….when she’s talking, or when we’re driving or just anytime, I would just stop whatever I’m doing n tell her that I dreamt that….mum thought it was spooky….but she eventually got used to it..cos it was becoming ones too often…now my friends here are getting spooked….hhehehe…it’ll take them some time to get used...

It’s been ages since i wrote something here…. hey…it’s not because i was lazy…i had semester final exams going on…that’s y didnt have the time… Anyway, there isnt much to write about…cos i havent been doing anything at all other than studying for my finals…. Zoology was ok….eng was ok too (obviously…), ….i had biotech this morning…Biotech was lousy!! it was so bad!! I studied so much for it…i stayed up d whole nite, did revision, and didnt even chuck any chapters at all…i studied every single, freaking page of it!! but wat happened in the end…??!!! d paper was completely out of topic!! this other freaking college that set the paper, set all d questions out of the syllabus!!! How were we supposed to do an exam like that!! n all the questions were so so unimportant!! biotech papers are NOT supposed to be like that!!! we had loads and loads to study….loads of important stuff…and in the end wat do we get…a bunch of idiotic, unwanted, unimportant questions!!! i feel as if i wasnt worth it a...

i got this from a friend by mail… i thought i can share this here u guys….worth reading….:) 1. There was a church that had problems with outsiders parking in its parking lots, so they put up a sign: CHURCH CAR PARK - FOR MEMBERS ONLY, TRESPASSERS WILL BE BAPTIZED! That took care of the problem! 2. "No God - No Peace? Know God - Know Peace." 3. "Free Trip to heaven. Details Inside!" 4. "Try our Sundays. They are better than Baskin-Robbins." 5. "Searching for a new look? Have your faith lifted here!" 6. An ad for one Church has a picture of two hands holding stone tablets on which the Ten Commandments are inscribed and a headline that reads: "For fast, fast, fast relief, take two tablets." 7. When the restaurant next to another Church put out a sign with big red letters that said, "Open Sundays," the church reciprocated with its own message: "We are open on Sundays, too." 8. "People are like tea bags - you...

i had Environmental studies exam this morning….it’s not one of my subjects…but every semester we have to write some extra paper…so, this sem i got stuck with this one… We had classes every week for the past 4 months, but never had any test or assignment for it…so, i obviously didnt bother studying for it. n i had this paper today morning which will be included for the finals. i decently wanted to start studying since yesterday afternoon….but i didnt… then finally at nite, my friend i and forced ourselves to switch off the the idiot box n start studying. We started off very well…we were looking for the notes and important points, questions and answers for the very 1st time!! but it doesnt matter anyway rite..we still managed to force ourselves to start studying…..n sat for half an hour at one go!!! then we ended tup talking for one hour! :p and then, that was it for our studying….i ended up talking to my mum after that, then had dinner n went to sleep early, cos i was already having a s...

yup…u read it rite…..i’m going bananas….not because of my studies…..but because of MOBILE PHONES…!! EVERYONE around me seems to be changing their phones off late!! and i feel as if i’m being provoked!! if only it wasnt for that guy who stole my baby phone from me…i wouldnt be whining and grumbling and trying to talk my mum into getting me a another phone now! i really loved that phone…n i finally told myself and my mum that i wasnt gonna change my phone so often…like i usually do….. but since i lost that phone….n had to get another one before coming back to india…..i felt really guilty and upset…so i just got a samsung x650….. for the past four months, i didnt really think about changing my phone….n i never bothered looking around too cos if i did, i know i’ll wanna change my phone again…..but like i said…off late so many ppl around me are changing their mobile phone…..and that’s really really provoking me to change mine too…. when i say a lot of ppl….i really mean a lot of ppl!! my cl...

finally…all my practicals are over!! it feels as if i’ve finished my final exams!! well…that’s a long way to go…*sigh…* Anyways…today’s zoology pracs was ok….i could identify all the four specimens…n write about it…(i added my own grandmother stories in between though….;p) but couldn’t draw the last diagram…that bone was rather complicated…but it doesnt matter….i’ll only lose 1 or 2 marks there…. So, since my exams were over…( for this week that is…) i went out with my friend instead of coming back home straight after college like i usually do…she had to go to some place to collect some stuff for her mum…so i just followed her….n i had zinger burger today! ( after such a long time!) … then we came back home to leave our bags and books, then went out again…..eerr…..we were not loitering around the whole evening and night….we had to go to do the doctor cos we got wet in the rain while we were out in the evening…thanks to my weak immune system!! i didnt wanna take chances of getting sick...

Today’s practical exam wasnt too good…. :( i didnt have enough time to finish it…left a few things undone…the thing is, i couldnt finish it, not because i didnt know wat to do…i knew every single thing, i knew everything in detail! infact i was helping my classmates cos they didnt know wat to do. i was d only one who knew everything so well…..but i just didnt have enough time to finish all the experiments and graphs… none of the 25 girls in my class finished the whole pracs! 1st of all, we were the 1st batch to have Biotech pracs and to make things worse we had it in the morning. my teachers were not very prepared cos they were late. my pracs was supposed to start at 8.30, but it only started at 8.45am. my teacher gave us the questions, and then we started writing the procedure, the tabular column and watever that had to be done, and then we started the experiments. so far so good….only after almost 2 hours did my teachers realize that they forgot to prepare some solution and enzymes w...

A very very HAPPY belated DIWALI to all the Hindus and SEMALAT HARI RAYA to the malays…..i wanted to msg everyone yesterday…the lazy bum in me took the better of me… i was glued to the tv the whole of yesterday…there were so many movies n programs on tv….Charu, Shalini and myself watched 4 movies non stop since 10am yesterday! we saw : 1) Coffee with Anu (interview with Vijay and Trisha) 2) Surya and Jothika’s wedding preparation 3) Vasool Raja MBBS 4) Kalvanin Kathali ( i think thats d name…m not too sure, cos didnt watch the whole thing) 5) Kaaka Kaaka 6) Sami 7) Coffee with Anu (again! cos we thought the Surya Jothika’s wedding preparation will be repeated….:p) i had to leave half way while watching Kaaka Kaaka cos mum called….i spoke to mum for more than 2 hours yesterday…was talking about loads and loads of things….n i think i spent almost an hour to tell her about my friend whom i am staying with…..n spoke about EXAMS!! n then HOLIDAYS :D!! i never studied anything at all d whol...

i’m on study break now…eerr…actually…since d 13th …:p i finally started studying today…. havent started on full force….slowly picking up my pace….very slowly actually….!! i studied for 1 hour this morning…n couldnt take it anymore…!! ended up taking a break for 3 hours ( was watching a movie while having lunch)!! i wonder how i’ll do in my exams if i continue at this pace.. i have LOADS N LOADS to study…but by the rate i’m going…it looks as if i dont have any exams to look forward to! I gtg now….going out for another round of break before i continue studying from where i stopped this morning…hehehe…:p

I woke up at 7 this morning!! thats actually very early for me!! but considering that i slept at 10pm last nite…doesnt really help me rejoice in the fact that i woke up at 7am (rather than 9 or almost 10am, which is my usual waking up time) for once since my study break started last week I’m becoming so so lazy cos i’m sleeping too much…my friends have started calling me sleeping beauty!! i can sleep at any time of the day, for as many hours as i want, and still manage to sleep very well at nite till late in d morning!! i dont know y i’ve become like this all of a sudden…. this morning when i read the Bible….Proverbs 20:13…Do not love sleep or you will grow poor; stay awake and you will have food to spare….i felt as if someone was trying to knock some sense into my head!! i mean, its not like i didnt know that too much of sleep isnt good and all that..but i just cant help it….and its not like i love to sleep…i do like to sleep (who doesnt!!?) but not LOVE!! n i dont fall asleep intent...

hello all beautiful ppl of the world….:) Its been a good day today…a very good day!! ..not just because i did well in my chem pracs…but becauce God loves me so much! :) right from the time i woke up…i felt God’s presence with me today…i havent been a very good girl for some time now…but God always understands…The Lord was with me through out my Chem pracs today. before i reached college…was i having doubts of how i’d do the exam today, cos God helps those who help themselves…n i havent been doing that off late as well…so, i was actually mentally preparing myself to accept the punishment from God for not setting my priorities rite….but as i was writing d exam….i realized that i was so wrong!!! I wrote d paper non stop cos everything i read was just coming to my memory word after word!! Thank God for all that!! well…one pracs is over…2 more to go..n then theory papers will be starting from d 7th of Nov God’s love is the only love that is guaranteed to last…Jer 31:3 have a great day ppl!!...

Well, i’ve finally decided to blog…not because i want to…but because so many of my friends have been asking (or rather forcing, and threatening !!) me to do so! so, at least for their satisfaction i’m gonna do it… i’m not a big fan of blogging…but i do agree that it’s a convenient way of sharing our daily activities with our friends and family whom we cannot meet often due to circumstances…n since i’m so far away from home and my friends….i guess this will help fill them up about wats happening on my side of the world…. but i cannot promise that i’ll be a good girl and blog everyday….there’s no way i can do that!! i do write diaries….but i obviously cant post all of that here cos it’ll be a nitemare for me and also for u guys…..so..i’ll just keep it short and sweet here! :-) Anyways, i gotta get going for today….i have Chem pracs tomorrow (10 hours from now actually) which carries 25 marks for my finals…n here i am inaugurating my blog!! wat a time to start this! alrite then…so long fo...
