i think i'm finally learning to move on

i've been a way from home for many years now... so it shouldnt be a problem at all for me to move on. thats wat everyone thinks... but its not that way at all i always thought i was d odd one out in a new place. it has always been difficult for me to get used to ppl around me and the new environment. though i can adapt to anything easily... there's always something that's different. i think i've finally mastered d art of getting used to new places, to new ppl, and most importantly, i've realized who i have to listen to. i've found a few good friends now. i dont know if i'll be staying here for long, i dont know if i'll be able to keep in touch with them even after i leave, i dont know i'll be able to do wat i'm supposed to be while i'm here. all i know is that now i have a few good friends... whom i wish i got to know earlier

the tale of a stupid girl during the most important viva of her life

Her viva was scheduled on the 7th of Sept at 2.00pm, but she was asked to be there in the waiting room half an hour before time, just like everyone else. Little Miss Stupid Girl (SG) rushed to the depart almost an hour earlier because she was too tensed. she didnt even bother studying or revising on the morning of her viva. all she did was spend one whole hour getting ready for the viva. her reasoning was that she should at least look good and impress the external examiner even if she can't answer the questions properly. i must admit, she did look good. but there's no pic as proof that she did look good that day. Miss SG is not called like that for no reason you know. Her facilitators were worried looking at her. she must have been a sight! they tried to pacify her by telling her that it was going to be alright and that everyone else found the examiners to be really helpful and considerate. Miss SG wasnt convinced at all, but she tried to appear more relaxed and calmed. she rem...

LOL thats a real map, thats seriously ancient. it was HUGE and ...

I long for the days when

I didn't have a worry in the world I didn't know what deadlines meant I knew that 11pm till after 8am was sleeping time, and 9am till 11pm was studying/eating/etc etc time and not vice-versa I could fit into my fav clothes a couple of months/years back I wasn't a food piggie I had meaningful things to write (so it was only once in a blue moon... at least it existed rite!?) I don't need to moisturize or use make up I was at my best, with gorgeous hair, skin, and at my best size my laptop was super fast and obedient I used to start doing my work (especially a 6000 words dissertation with loads of original diagrams and tables and figure legends and references and annotations!!) 8 weeks before it was due and not 8 days before its due!!!

u wouldnt even wanna try n physically sit in one of those in public ( wat u want to do in my mind and heart is all up to u) u will by no means be able to sit in one of those n be transported around u'r not allowed on something as harmless as a trampoline bungee. Look how much fun that little girl is having!! i wanna have a go on it too!!!!!!!!! u'r not allowed to drive cos u'r too old, and not too young again.. not allowed u can only stand near the merry go round and enviously look at the little kids on it (i cant even remember the last time i went on one of those=( ) u cant strip n jump into a wee pond in public and have fun ... in public!

Glasgow River Festival Day 1

Image
the brochure and the website clearly said that the River Festival wasfrom the 24th till 26th of July, and it was bigger and better this year... but all we saw on the 24th was a major let down for all my expectations yes, i'm a daft... i got too excited when i saw that it was a festival, and it was near my place and i hadnt missed it yet, and for once i knew of a festival before it was over! hence the misreading of 25th as 24th! :S wat do u expect to see when u go a day before the actual festival?? ppl setting things up, closed booths and drop dead gorgeous navy crew!!!!!!!!!! (too bad i couldnt manage to take a pic of them!! sigh) an empty and quiet ship instead of one full of life and laughter and fun everything was so quiet and dead all we could do was hopelessly, and aimlessly and not forgetting, shamelessly, take pics at least, we had decided to drop by the next day to see if the river festival was really bigger and better this year... i wasnt too sure about it at all... but i...
