Revethi & Ragini
All I gotta say is
I just wanna have some fun
And I'll do it until I'm done
I'm telling you
I'm just a crazy kind of girl
I'll tell it to the world
I've just begun having my fun
Inside me there's something I found
I wanna shop around
I've just begun
Don't wanna settle down

Hey guys! Sorry for the delayed post! Went for Gaya's chalet yesterday. Honestly it was only fun until the guy came to yell at us when we were playing catching(young at heart you see). After that it got pretty boring. We retreated to the room to talk a little then everyone dozed off except for me. Decided not to sleep and it's not like i could anyway. I was actually waiting to get home seriously. The people weren't very accomodating. Hopefully, Gaya will have a pleasant night with not too much drinking. Unfortunately for her, the rest of us left because celebrating the coming of the new year was more meaningful than anything else. I would rather surround myself with them instead of drunk teenagers looking for some meaningless fun. No offense or anything but maybe some people just prefer more meaningful new year celebrations. I sneake out with Gaya around 5am to go to the beach. Picked some shells and watched the sunrise and all. After that Gaya just went back to sleep on the couch so i decided to go to the other more deserted part of the beach to pick shells by myself. I've never enjoyed anything so much in a long time. I was alone with the sun the sand and the sea for company. Picked pretty shells. I was so taken in by everything around me that i've decided to go to Pulau Ubin on Sunday with Him just to cycle around and get dirty! Hah! Anyway, Kaanthan brought us home from the chalet! It was such a coincidence that he called when we were about to leave and this time he had a car so everyone got a lift! Very kind of him to take 5 extra people from one stupid end of Singapore(Changi/Tampines) back home. All in all, It was fun with Gaya, Arch, Reka, Melanie and boyfriend as well as Salma even if it was for a short period of time. Gaya just messaged me and told me that she took my advice and went home. Good for her! Haha.

Looking back at 2008, i can only say that things happened very differently. Different. The decisions i made this year are different ones. Decisions i wouldn't normally have made, but i did anyway. This year i learned a few lessons in life, about who i can trust and who are should just shake off. I've learned that treating people like dirt will get you no where and somehow bring you more pain than you would have suffered earlier. At the same time, i realise that you should never regret the things you do. So no matter how bad my decisions have been, from boys to toys from clothes to shoes, i don't regret them. Everything happened for a reason this year and i;m glad everything happened that way. I know from now on, that i'm surrounded by the people i trust and love. Those who love me for me and not as a trophy or doll. I made some pretty bad decisions concerning my A levels. I think i am going to do badly. I can only hope and pray that i scrape through. And if i don't i've taken time to consider my other options as well as overseas ones. This year, I learned to be a more responsible daughter and sister. With my father in Thailand, i've become the unofficial in-charge and everything became my problem, fault etc. The initial difficulty of not being able to handle everything diffused and now i'm really the in-charge. Permissions, opinions, practically everything goes through me. This year i realised, how much more i love my family. How they all have thier imperfections but they make it work together. My family is the most beautiful thing to me by far. 2008 has also been a testing year for relationships in school. The gang fell apart but things slowly got better. Everyone's talking to everyone even if it's in the smallest way. Love wise, I realised when i was alone in the beach today that i'm actually very much in love. It hasn't changed for 7years. It never went away for whoever i was with, he was always much deeper herself. This year, I got an iPhone. Sure Apple's stylish and all but the phono is really weird! No forwardng messgaes etc etc. I also got another guitar this year in an attempt to rekindle my previous skills. So all in all, This year was a difficult one indeed.

I'm not going to blog about the resolutions and all. That'll come after midnight because i'm dozing off right . Till then, good night everyone!
LotsaLurveeee,
Ragini(:

wello!
i'm going to watch bedtime stories tmr with haz momo and probably syl. and i just watched mission istanbul. good movie. loved the mockery of Bush. btw if some of u rmb, i was kinda upset at the fact that kristin kreuk had cut off her long flowy hair. but i'm over it. she still looks good.





but i still prefer her with longer hair. she somehow looks prettier with longer hair.



enough said! and if u haven guessed alr, she is the prettiest in the world as far as i'm concerned.

momo: "today i have the worst stomachache and rev told me to eat raw veggies. yucks!"

i know. i give good advice. i'm bored. will blog again later not if i feel like it. be good till then.

Hello everyone! We just finished watching Harry Potter again. Somehow i never get tired of reading the books or watching the movies. And it's suddenly so intriguing. What if we were all in that world instead? Which house do you think you'll be in? Lol. As you can see, i'm getting pretty carried away with this whole thing am i not? Murale lent us his HP DVD collection and i swear the extras included are worth every bit of the 49 bucks paid for the DVD. So now i know why everyone's into fan fiction. Just because the last HP book has been completed doesn't mean fans are satisfied. Which is why i think i'm going to buy This other book that goes in depth and helps you understand everything you need to know and gives you other information that you probably never knew about!

I went to Causeway today with Viknesh to help him service his phone at the Nokia centre. Honestly, no matter how many times i said i hated that place when i was in IJC, I realised that i REALLY miss it. I miss going there with the girls after school everyday to eat and rot before we headed home to finish up all our tutorials and studying. I miss going for random movie dates and just walking around with friends. If it wasn't for me being in IJC, I would have never thought of leaving the central area to go to a stupid place like Woodlands. Honestly, no offence to my friends living in Woodlands but i really can't stand that place. With it's loafers and gangs and whatever. My O.K. zone stops at Admiralty with only Yishun at the other undesirable place along the way. Btw this is with specific reference to the Indian community. I have issues with them as it can be seen clearly from what i've said so far. Anyway, i didn't do much. Just waited for his phone to be sent in for repair then i left the place. It just isn't the same being there without the girls. Headed home after that.

I'm stuck at one of the last levels in my TombRaider Underworld edt. I just can't handle her damn sports bike so i'm leaving it to Him when he comes over tomorrow. I DIDNT SWIM TODAY! ):
So yeah. That's about it i suppose. Oh did i mention that people like smelling me? Everyone says i smell nice. They're hooked to it! Every Ex, every girlfriend and even Him! Want to know my secret?

I DON'T SWEAT!

I am such a showoff really(:
I'm also a really bored showoff.
Okay everyone. I'm going to go play some music right now. Everyone else is asleep so this is my chance to play without bursting any eardrums or mirrors.

There's something i reallyreallyREALLY want right now(:

Any takers?

Just kidding!
Alright y'all! I'm heading to bed not. Sleeptight!

LotsaLove,
Ragini(:

Random but a reason to be rebellious. Rebellious people are happier because they get what they want.


Cause you're rebellion

Be wary of others
The ones closest to you (oh)
The poison they feed you
And the voodoo that they do

But in rebellion
There's a sparkle of truth
Don't just stand there
Do what you got to do

You'll find it in rebellion
Your body starts breathing
They're not believing what they're seeing
'Cause you're rebellion

You'll find it so compelling
With everyone yelling
'Cause your soul, you're not selling
'Cause you're rebellion

By the Queen B herself.


I swear i'm becoming more and more like a boy. I swim everyday, sometimes more than once. I run like crazy. I eat heck a lot and of course i mess up the area around me in the process. I yell and i scream in public. Are there any perks to being the opposite sex? Maybe. These are probably the things i'd do if i were a boy for a day?

I'd run around topless in the middle of Tekka on a Sunday evening.
I'd go into the men's bathroom see how the zipper thing works.
I'd smell nail polish to study the reason for men to call it smelly.
I'd tell the truth if a girl asks me if she's pretty.
I'd treat a girl right and let her have it her way just to see a different reaction other than the usual annoyed, irritated one.
I'd stay home with my family more often just to see how everyone's doing.
I'd be brave, Not act brave/tough but actually be brave/tough.
I'd wake up, take my shower and go out looking just the way i looked when i got out of my shower.
I'd backpack around the world alone.
I'd break a girl's heart just to see how much of pleasure i can get from it.

I'd do all these things simply because i believe guys are just that way. Going about town topless is really one of the only things a woman can't do that a man can do right now so that's a must! And why do men act like nail polish is poison dammit? Don't they realise it's insulting when they cover their noses and run away? Of course when you ask a guy if you're pretty and he says yes, he's lying. They never mean it and when they do, they're obsessed so either way back off. Don't you men ever realise that women get angry because of you and/or the things that you do or put them through? Well it's because of you so get to work and make a girl feel good about something for once. Guys generally start to drift away from their families at a certain age. You'll start seeing lesser and lesser of your sons and brothers and even cousin brothers when they get older. Suddenly, the house becomes like a hotel. They come to eat and sleep and then they're off. It'd be nice if they stayed home and observed how things have changed because of them. You guys need to stop acting tough and actually be tough. One of my previous relationships saw me being the guy and the guy being the girl aka wimp. It sucks to know that i'm tougher than my supposed knight in shining armour. Why is it a girl looks good when she's going to bed and dreadful when she gets up but a guy looks exactly the same? That's just against the natural order of life! I don't attract rapists. People are afraid to whack a guy just in case they get it back. So why don't you guys quit fooling around and start enjoying life? I mean you can travel the world alone. Free and easy and you don't do it? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?
The last one. I just have to know. What kind of sick pleasure to you get when you mess a girl up or break her heart? I just have to know.

My number one reason for not wanting to be a guy?
I don't want to have anything dangling between my legs. Durh. That is just SO uncomfortable. Not to mention totally gross.

Did you know that a female fetus is more likely to survive the 9 month gestation than a male fetus? We're stronger from the moment of our creation.

It's good to be a Woman.

Good night everyone!
LoveLots,
Ragini(:

PS: Phone's working people! Managed to get like 10 missed calls this morning. I think it was carried forward from yesterday. Plus i recieved 5 missed calls from a Blocked(pvt) number so if it's you please call back!

My Ex just spoke to me after 3 years.
Suresh, was the person who once called me "Airport".
He was referring to my relatively flat chest.
I just HAD to say that.

Cheers!
Ragini(:

Time for an attitude check.
All you Divas out there, get a grip.

You definately have not seen the worst life has to offer.

So what about you start being nice to everyone?
More tolerant of the most irritating, self-absorbed fools you may know?
Anything to prevent karma from acting up.

This might or might not be a note to yourself.
Might or might not be a note to someone else.
But then again, if it was someone else, i would have mentioned a name right?


I did a shoot today at the Esplanade!Met Arch's friends. All pretty nice people. Very nice actually. Funny as well. When i mean funny, i mean St Marg's funny and not the stupid dry humour you find in places like IJC. Revethi might be included in this solely for the fact that she's been around me so much that this kinda humour is growing on her. Heh. Anyway, we had lotsa fun at the Esplanade. Gotta go back for another shoot on Monday nd then we'll all probably chill at the cool new cafe there again. Awesome place i tell you. Reminds me of the Mandarin Oriental family suite i stayed in once. And now i feel like going back there. Oh wells, it can wait because we're off to Gold Coast again in like, 3 months! Anyone interested in joining us? Drop me a message. Lol. I'm looking to plan a backpacking trip for the YEC and all who want to join and i need help with ideas for that as well. It has to be within Asia and should cost around 500 bucks max excluding airfare. Suddenly i have a dozen things to organise for the YEC and my PHONE isn't working! ):
For all of you who tried calling or messaging me yesterday and today (and probably tomorrow), i'm really really sorry! There's something wrong with the iPhone updates and i can only accept calls or send messaged for now. Until it's fixed/updated, i won't be able to see missed calls or text messages so please call my home number is there's anything or leave me an offline message(msn) or TAG me!
Hopefully, there'll been an update out by tomorrow. Checked out with someone apparently it's normal and i can retrieve the numbers if i go to the Apple centre or Singtel. Like Hello? Why would i get up and walk down to one of these places just to get the numbers? If it's important, the person could have just called my house. Lol. I'm going swimming again tomorrow morning so i better get to practicing and then to bed or else i'll be too exhausted to swim.
Good night everyone!
LoveLots,
Ragini(:

Hi everyone,
Today was really weird. I mean, it totally didn't feel like Xmas! It was boring and the weather wasn't too good. I spent my whole day playing TombRaider. Managed to get pretty far and now i'm stuck because i don't really know how to handle the bike. Sucks. I swear i felt like puking and breaking the Xbox controller at the same time. Yes, i clearly have anger management issues.
Other than struggling with the game i pretty much just lazed around, played the guitar, lazed around and nothing else. Watched some teevee and just my luck there were two good Rajini films on! I used to be a fan. Maybe because our names sound so alike? Heh.
Anyway, FACEBOOK is the coolest shit i tell you. You guys should all go get one. You can do the most fun things and right now i'm hooked to the pet society. It's SUPER cute! Honestly i don't know how i'm going to manage a strict front with my students when school opens in a week's time. Can you imagine what their reaction will be when they see my pet Genie on Facebook? They'd probably think it'd be okay to play punk with a teacher who has such a cute pet! (:
I'm blogging from the balcony and this is probably my favourite place in the whole world. I can see everything! Temples, Hospitals, Condos and a few Sky Gardens and of course the busiest stretch of the CenTral Expressway. There's a party going on strong in the condo opposite my place and i can hear their music! It's not very near mind you. I think i'm going to invite all my darlings over one night to have a BBQ in the balcony. Like a private affair. Oh and that reminds me, I'm going to test drive an Audi R8! Of course i'm not joking. Only sinister people like me can come up with a plan to test drive a car that i'm obviously not going to buy yet. See, the Xmas holiday gave me time to think it over and i'll be contacting those involved in my plan shortly! Don't worry, I'll try not to get you arrested or anything. Btw, the 5 Cs should become the 5 Rs! Really, all a person could ask for:




i realised the snowflakes of all the envelopes have been ripped off :( so much for my spending time making 24 snowflakes from scratch :(

HELLO!
I got my guitar today.
I wanna be like Sharanya. Self Taught.
Actually i had lessons before. I've just been putting it off for some time. Anyway the sudden decision to get the guitar was because it's on my list of things to do before i grow old or die. I mean ballet is done, dance is done in general, travelling is halfway through, and of course there's the guitar one. I promised myself i will continue and Yamaha was having a sale! Oh well.
Met Mai and Raj when we went to get the guitar. He's funny! So both boys are funny people who like to bully their girlfriends. Sadly. I had to cut off the nails on my left hand to handle the chords. There goes my manicure! But it's all in the name of music. Anyway Murale's been asking me to continue playing it since like Jan? So might as well pick it up and make some music(:
Pretty much the whole dau was spent on playing TombRaiderUnderworld. It's more fun to play it when you have company really. Scream and get excited and agitated together. Everything i do has to have some drama you see.
Revethi seems to have planned out her day pretty well. I hope it went well. And yes of course Kajol is SRK's best partner! She's really really pretty actually. Classic beauty that doesn't seem to age with time if you ask me.
I need to dance more. Someone take me out to dance. I was supposed to go out with Nalini tonight. Called it off because her mum didn't allow her out. Could have been a blast really.
It's Okay! There's always tommorrow!
Okay everyone. I'm going off to practice my strumming. I have to show Him what i can do by Friday. Ooh i love a challenge. I love it until i lose. Then i don't really like it anymore.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
LoveLots,
Ragini(:

Hello hello!
I think i'm one of those people you call "waterbaby". I went swimming twice today and stayed till the pool closed!
Anyway, went hunting for earrings and bangles for Arch today. I only woke up at 4pm. Exhausted after my morning swim at RI. She's really picky about her stuff so it took pretty long. Not that i have any problem with that. I think i'm worse actually. Rushed off to JlnB swimming complex to swim again with everyone else. It was good. Laps and then playing at the kiddie pool. Haha.

Something ticked me off a while ago. This guy, a really cute one actually, added me on msn and started talking to me. I don't intend to protect your identity Mr Kishen from SP. He starts talking to me. Everything's fine until he finds out that i just finished my A levels. And then he started his nonsense. Like "A lvls ah? not bad. smart girl. blahblahblah" and then his WHOLE attitude does a 180 and suddenly he's this useless, insecure, lowly person who is totally unhappy with his life and so he doesn't like girls who are possibly more intelligent than him. Actually, right now i believe every girl could be smarter. Funny how within a matter of seconds, a totally cute guy goes from hero to zzzero. Anyway, I'd rather block him(which i did a few mins ago) than keep talking to an insecure person like him. Insecure guy rather.

I don't know what i wanna do right now. Bored and hungry. So i guess i'll just go watch something on teevee and eat my Snickers bar. Happy Xmas eve everybody!
And friends of the guy i referred to above, please don't bother spamming me? I'm pretty thick skinned so what you say to me won't hurt me and neither will it sink in.
Good night!
LoveLots,
Ragini(:

Hello everyone!
Today started out rough but got better by the hour. (:
The kids' Xmas party at the CC was today. It went great! I love my YEC family really. We're all from different walks of life but when we get together it seems like we've known each other for ages. Anyway the emcee for the evening had a thing for roads/highways/cars. She was alright but she got pretty weird later on. I WAS THE DJ TONIGHT! Yay me! Of course Shawn was there to help me. Priya too. Thank you very very much. Managed to put everything together and it went well. Pretty fun even for the adults. The minister mingled with us as usual. It's becoming hard to see him as a minister and not just another one of the PA members usually walking around the CC. After the whole party was over, we went into the conference room to eat and chit chat and of course dish out the latest gossip. Got to know Priya much better. She's 28 and has a great personality. And you can tell she really loves being a teacher as well. Vik came back after a pretty long time today. He's been busy with work as usual. Other than that it was just Shawn teasing me. We made plans together though. Lol.
Revethi's coming over tmr to bake! I mean she's doing the baking. I'm just doing the icing part. I'm actually good at that so if anyone wants really pretty icing contact me! I'm getting so boring even my "fan mail" has stopped. Lol okay fine it wasn't fan mail. Some were clear-cut hate mail. But hey, at least it was something. Revethi has almost completely stopped blogging because of her obsession with hindi movies. Crazy girl. So here i am trying to bring some life to the blog and of course, failing miserably. I need to get out more. One ladies night outing can't do any harm right? There're chalets coming up though. Melanie's, and Gaya's New Year's Day chalet as well!
The new year's going to be really different. Hopefully much better and full of opportunities and love and of course some luck for everyone. I don't know what you guys pray for when you go to your place of worship but i always pray for peace and love and for everyone to be happy. Sounds like something out a pageant right? Pageants have made it a joke to say things like that seriously. But really, it's all i can hope for. When everyone's happy, everyone else around that person is happy. I think. The last time i went to the temple(which was in like april?), i prayed for someone to move on and be happy. And true enough, they did. And i was happy for them. Still am when i clearly shouldn't be. See, He works wonders. He may be represented differently in various religions, but He is still one being. Every religion has a way of putting it across to their people, a direction given to them by mere mortals. We can't see God. At least, that's what i believe. We're still fighting though. The entrie world is at war even when all the religions show some form of connection to each other. I mean aren't similarities a good thing?
You're all confused about your faith if you ask me. Seek spiritual counselling. You people clearly need it.
Other than that, i don't think i have anything else to say. I'm pretty sure there was but i forgot. I'm going to go back to (attempting) to stum "I'm Yours" and then watch a hindi movie about dance, which i dearly miss right now. Can't wait for SYF when Rekha, Thulasi and i have to go back and teach our juniors their routine.
Have a great week ahead. Work hard and play harder.
Goodnight!
LoveLots,
Ragini(:

Firstly, I apologise on behalf of the both of us for not blogging. For those who checked back everyday, sorry! Not that i was being a lazy bum on my part or anything. This week's just been busy because Reka and i have been helping Arch run everything for her sister's surprise 21st birthday party. Everything paid off because today was definately good! (:
Started out with Arch and me going to Tekka to give her tailor some material for her Xmas suit. On our way there, we got harassed by a Vasantham central crew. This is what i deserve for calling them a good for nothing channel(refer to earlier post). The guy approached us and the camera was straight in my face. SUDDENLY, i was all alone. Why you may ask? Because Archana Balakrishnan decided to FLEE in the other direction. She pretended as though she didn't know me! After some harassment on their part and begging on my part, the guy finally pitied me and let me go. Archana you're so SELFISH! You didn't want your face to appear on a "disgusting channel" but you didn't mind the guy catching me trying to escape his interview on TAPE!
We ended up not sewing anything cause the crazy lady said it'll cost 65 bucks to make on suit. Extra 10 bucks for express service. She made it sound like she was running a factory.HELL-O there's such thing as a ready-made suit you know. So we went to shop for suits instead and of course with my excellence in guidance etc, we managed to pick a really really pretty suit for her.
In your FACE you expensive tailor!
Went to have tea and we called Gaya to come down and join us. Been really long since we met to do something fun together so we figured this was the opportunity. After she joined us, we trotted off to Tekka mall's 5th floor. For all those idiots who think we have no life but to hang around Tekka, i'm sorry but we're not shopping for dance costumes and beer like you people are. FYI, The Concourse party shops have shifted to Tekka mall's 5th floor and as everyone should no by now, there's nowhere else you should go and buy Xmas decorations except for The Concourse shops. They're beautiful and in the case of most of the ornaments, cheap. They don't look cheap and don't be decieved by how expensive they may look. Make sure you look around all the shops before buying because price competition is rampant and some of the shops sell prettier ornaments at cheaper prices. Something the 3 of us had to learn the hard way today. Haha.
Archana did her W.Goldberg dance in the middle of Tekka today btw. I should be the one pretending not to know her. Thank God for her, my moral values are against discrimination and animal abuse hence my tolerance for her(:
Had lotsa fun. Somehow everything i tried, from the Devil's horns to the Xmas hat looked kinky on me! Lol. I think Gaya might agree on me. I hang my halo at home during the day and my horns at home at night. Everyone agree?
Went to Arab street after that. Before we went to the actual area, the three of us got ice-cream to keep us busy. Of course i didn't take my concentration away from the ice-cream even once. This shopkeeper said hi to me and the moment i opened my mouth to said hi to her, my ice cream fell out of my mouth. Made a mess and embarrassed myself seriously. Archana said she wasn't surprised. Don't think Gaya was either. Neither was i actually. Went to check out the boxing school. Time to get fitter than the guys since i'm of course, already much more mentally capable than them. The only thing guys have left is their masculine-ness and once that's gone, they're on par. Haha. Ambitious am i not.
Rushed to TPY after that to get some stuff for the decorations. We had almond stock for lunch(:
After that it was all just rushing to get all the stuff done at her place.
After that it was basically party time.

I want to be like Archana's sister when i grow up. She's truly, a role model.

Anyway that's about it for now people. It's really hot out here so i'm going into the room to chill a while and eventually knock out. Good night everyone. I urge you to come back again tmr and check if your name appears on the blog.
LoveLots,
Ragini(:

I woke up at like 2pm today.
So i couldn't possibly have done anything much let alone anything productive.
Read the papers, played carem and talked to Revv online about the haunted places we're planning to visit. Oh and i created a facebook account as well. Pointless but i couldn't help it. Everyone kept asking if i had one so i got one! And now i'm watching The Suite Life on Deck and typing this post.
Watching Disney channel helps me forget that I'M TURNING 20 IN TWO MONTHS! ):
God help me.
Anyways, about yesterday. I was that exhausted because i had been running around since 730 am yesterday. My Granddad's in the hospital. I really hope nothing's wrong with him. Only left the hospital at like what, 8pm?
Just re-applied for my relief teaching thingy cause Murale's cousin said the job's available. So there you have it, Miss Ragini Anpazhahan or cher for short. Lol. Actually i haven't exactly said yes to it simple because i was thinking of finding another job? Like something that doesn't involve rebellious 13 to 17 year olds? There's so much i wanna do right now. Play music again, learn kickboxing and workout. Haha. How ambitious. Van asked me to join her for Veenai classes and well i want to but my mum's making me choose. So i can't have it all. More updates on that later.
Revethi and i have planned for a little ScareFair of our own. We're going to visit a few 'haunted' spots in Singapore for cheap thrills. Everyone's welcome to come along with us. No Old Changi Hospital though. I have this belief that the ghosts from OCH have fled due to the increasing traffic consisting of teens looking for a thrill, eccentric photogs and other insignificant people. So there's really no point going there. So there's the devil's bend, the song sisters' house and a few others. Hopefully they don't turn out like Block 852. Lol.
Anyway i think i'm done, for now.
Lastly, i would like to put up a special something for the guy who was acting all macho until he tripped and fell at my feet outside SGH yesterday, my blessings are with you dear. Though try not to act like that in front of a girl again. It can get ugly. I'm sorry you had to experience it.
Lol. Crazy things always happen to crazy people like me (:
I have to go off to do stuff now. I'll post later everyone. Have a good late evening!
Ragini(:

I'm really too exhausted to blog. Long day ahead tomorrow as well. Sorry guys but the post is going to have to wait until my eyes can stay open for more than 2minutes. Nights Everyone.

tsktsk. ragini is angry. i haven talked to her about it but seriously. whoever pissed her off should know better! anw, in accordance to her second last post, i sorta go throught he same thing. ok i honestly dont love going out with my family but i dont hate it as well. it's just that when we go out together most of the time my sibs will be laughing and chatting away leaving me to rot and my dad.. well. he's never been the same since that day. so why would i love the outings rite? and my bro and i are movie junkies. and that's only because he never goes out much. my sis doesn bother taking him out unless there's smth in it for her most of the time and yes, he's lonely. so we go catch movies whenever my guilt overwhelms me. besides, he's totally different when he's out alone with me. he's not the annoying little pest that starts crying at the slightest touch. he's actually kinda fun.
yes anyway, apart from that, i watched my bollywood bride and kabhi kushi kabhi gham yesterday! awesomeness. kajol and SRK make the perfect couple i swear. anw anyone wanna tell me why kajol refuses to use her last name, mukherjee? :P i'm gonna watch hum tum and kuch kuch hota hai today. and u me aur hum and pyaar ke side effects tmr! whee~ bollyjolly!

ByTheWay, hasn't anyone taught you people that rippng, is bad?
Stop ripping off the way we post.
If i catch you, i won't scold you. I'll just publicly humiliate you on our blog. Using your name of course. And since i'm in a bad mood, i'll probably spread a nasty rumour about you as well. Brutally honest, am i not?
Get my drift and get out of my way before this blog becomes your downfall.
Ragini.

Bitches are getting younger these days.
Just so you know, being so rude, arrogant and stuck up is NOT going to get you anywhere. Open your eyes and take a look at the real world before your little world crashes down on you.
Other than Twilight and the train ride after, today was NOT good.
Somehow things have changed. Everything has NO for an answer. Maybe it's because i'm getting REALLY old, family outings feel estranged. I mean i LOVE going out with my family but it sure doesn't seem the same the other way around. I can just see it. Mum's never home. Sister is of course, never home. I take my brother everywhere. Mainly because we're both so lonely and bored at home. I tend to feel very guilty not taking him out. I wonder if anyone else feels that way.
Maybe i should find something to occupy me. I don't know, maybe get a JOB? That's it. I'm going to look for a job. One that ends really late too.
Really don't feel like blogging either because something just TICKED me off.
Night everyone.
Ragini.

Hello everyone! I think Revethi had a sudden feminist streak in her. Seriously, look at those posts man. 3 within a day! Not bad.
Went for Gayathri's wedding today. She's really the sweetest person around. Seriously. Great character and the groom's really nice too. I hope they live happily ever after!
Got up at like 7 and started getting ready for the wedding. Haven't had any sleep since then. But it doesn't look like i didn't sleep does it! Vik came over today. Played The Game of Life. Funny how the game reflects on the different types of indians around these days. There are the stingy, money hungry indians whose main aim in life, is to earn and not spend. Then there are those who spend wayyyy too much than they can afford and lounge in debt. Of course they don't have kids. Oh then there are those who have big houses, cars, family, wealth but are still unhappy. The silent middle class who're contented with life and finally, those who are never happy with what they have and always want more. My mum let Vik drive our baby today. He was alright. Now all i have to do is ask my dad if we can borrow it from Tuesday. Actually i really have nothing left to say. NALINI AND I MADE PLANS! La-la-ladies night! Haha. Feel good therapy. I promised to make her better and i will. Trust me, being out and about with a nut like myself will make you wish you were never upset to begin with. Haha.
I think i need some sleep really. Been sleeping at 4am and getting up at 7am for the past few days. And i'm going swimming again in the morning. Maybe jogging before that. Workout mania i tell you. If you wanna join me, gimme a buzzzz okay? I'm good company when you jog. I'll make you breathless before we reach the 100m mark! (:

We all know that men are not quite as adept at fashion as women. In fact guys will pretty much wear anything, anytime, with anything. This creates the false impression that guys just "throw" any old thing on. This however is not the case. As this handy little guide points out, getting dressed is a highly complex and organized ritual for men.

Just finished watching Miss World 2008 live and Miss Russia won. I was kinda expecting that actually. The woman defines stunning. Really pretty, really sweet and amazing body! Her eyes were probably her best feature during the pageant. Moving away from that topic, the day was just about shopping and preparing for the wedding. Of course there was also something that just added on to it. I attempted to heal a broken relationship and it just took it's first successful step. We only live once. Life's too precious to lose things that were once very precious to you. Things like that, usually remain just as precious till the day you die. I should be sleeping right now especially since the wedding's at 9 am and we need lotsa time to get ready. Talking to Arch online. She's still reeling from the shock of her twin sister winning the title 30mins ago. HOW DRAMA RIGHT? Tsktsk. We're planning to rent a car for Tuesday's adventure because my car's a continental and my mum certainly doesn't trust me when it comes to taking her 90k Lilac Opel out for a spin. The case closed the moment i said ''spin''.
Parents. Haha.
Spoke to Gaya a while today. Just catching up on stuff. We're planning to go check out the kickboxing school at Farrer Park tommorrow afternoon though i have a feeling we might end up walking very far away and chatting endlessly about life and its perils. Lol. I have so many things going on suddenly! My license, my ballet classes, working out and next kickboxing! All part of my very futile attempts to make myself feel useful. I'm secretly applying for a bike license as well. Haha. My mum's not letting me but hey, what can she do after i've got one? Lol. Trouble magnet.
MY ABS ARE GOING AWAY!! All those weeks for dancing and swimming! VITHYA TRAIN ME PLEASE!
I'm going to go away and sulk now. Well, not really. I'll go away and watch a nice movie and drink my hot chocolate. Yes, this is my current life of luxury. Chocolates, shopping, sleepovers, eating, dance, girls, family, iPhone, Vaio and well, myself! My own little world. Haha. Okay since Miss World 2008 was crowned a while ago, i'm gonna put up some trivia about the pageant alright? I have a thing for pretty people and pretty people events naturally draw me. The Miss World pageant is the oldest and longest running pageant in the world so it deserves the credit it's getting right now!

• The winner of the first Miss World contest was Sweden's Kerstin Hakansson, who was chosen from 26 contestants and received a cheque for £1,000 and a pearl necklace along with the Miss World title. Kerstin was the first and the last winner to wear a bikini.

• In 1967, Misses Finland, Denmark, Italy, Lebanon and New Zealand were advised to take bed rest for health reasons. However, all of them appeared in the line-up on stage.

• The shortest reign as Miss World was that of 18-year-old Gabriella Brum of West Germany. She was crowned the thirtieth Miss World in 1980 but resigned just after 18 hours.

• Eleven Miss World finalists have been Bond Girls. To assist James Bond, casting directors across the world have looked at the Miss World alumni.

• Three countries have successfully held the Miss World title for consecutive years: Sweden in 1951 and 1952 United Kingdom in 1964 and 1965 India in 1999 and 2000.

• Elizabeth Chovinsky, the fourth runner-up in Miss World 1953, was the only citizen of Monaco ever to make it to the finalists' line up in a major international beauty pageant.

• Lynda Carter, USA, did not go beyond the semi finals in 1972. However, thanks to a popular television series of the same name, she became more popular than the winner Belinda Roma Green of Australia.

• Since its beginning in 1951, the Miss World pageant has registered more than 3,500 national winners and currently receives approximate 1 million entries per year across the world. It is the most coveted title in global beauty pageants.

• Aishwarya Rai, the second Miss World from India, held the title in 1994. That same year, another Indian, Sushmita Sen, was Miss Universe.

• From 1980 the contestants were judged on personality and intelligence as well as looks.

Quote Kumar: "I'm just Indian, so we're just born beautiful"(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3gL8rDry6M 1:45minute mark)

Okay every, Enjoy your Sunday. Personally i HATE Sundays but who knows, you might have your own reasons for liking the last day of the weekend. Nights everyone.
Love&Peace(since it's pageant day),
Ragini(:

I just got back from shopping for 5 hours. Lol. And i created a new tagboard! Okay it doesn't look much different but i had to do something right. Good experience though. I freaked out when i first edited it cause the whole page looked distorted and the only thing on my mind was " Omg Revethi is SO going to kill me!". But, i managed to do it! (:
Anyways, this is an early post. Nothing much to say. Nothing much to do even though it's a Saturday afternoon. Maybe the last 7hours of this Saturday might get better. Hopefully. Arch called just now. She accidently brought back the EXPENSIVE Sennheiser earphones from the Museum! And of course she was panicking like crazy. So to add on to her trauma, i told her that they track their devices so she'd better go return it asap. And of course that made her cry. But it's okay. She can live with it until she finds out i lied. SHE'S the one who called me 3 times and lied to me that she was lost/harassed /CRYING. Horrible child. Don't scold me when you see this or i won't drive you on your errands on Tuesday. I won't let Vicky do it either. Lol.
Okay everyone. I'll post again later. Bye bye!
Ragini(:

Hello! I swear Revethi has a thing for pictures on blogs. Her entry is miniscule and her picture, huge! Then again, pictures speak a thousand words right? Lol. Revethi is a woman of few words. Sadly. By the way, she TOTALLY screwed up her "secret thing" project! Haha. I tricked her into telling me what she was doing. The best part is, she thought it was all Vithya's fault. (:
Just got back from my cousin's bangle ceremony. Gosh she looks so pretty now. I think the last time i saw or spoke to her was when she was in jc, 10years ago! Time flies so fast. The wedding's on Sunday and she's getting married to an ASP. Not bad ah. Today was really busy actually. Went to swim at like 8am with Dana,Hariharan and Maithilli. Lap over lap over lap! I think we did like 20 laps altogether? (: Once we got home, we took our showers, had lunch and rushed of to Tekka to thread and then straight to get our nails done. So all in all today was a ''feel good'' day. No guilt of lazing around with nothing to do. I even stayed away from gaming today! Well of course i'm going to start after this. Yes, i will never change. Oh there's one thing i've been thinking about putting up since last night. I read Shanthini's latest post and i think it's really interesting and inspiring. All you girls should go check it out. And guys? erm, go ahead if you can read and be able to see the message. Most men are just thick you see. Actually i think all men are. Those that aren't, are gay. Okay guys i don't really have much to say right now. Mainly because i'm really excited to get back to the game. I hear my Xbox controller calling out to me, "Come Ragini, Touch me, press my buttons, PLAY WITH ME!". Lol Lol. Okay i'm going off now! But of course i wouldn't go without leaving you dears a little something to read and enjoy.

A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he wants.

A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't want.

A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.

A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.

A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.

A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

To be happy with a man you must understand him a lot and love him a little.

To be happy with a woman you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.

Married men live longer than single men.

But married men are a lot more willing to die.

Any married man should forget his mistakes.

No sense two people remembering the same thing.

Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed.

Women somehow deteriorate during the night.

A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.

A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change and she does.

A woman has the last word in any argument.

Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Its THE WEEKEND!! Catch up on your sleep, watch all your shows and just waste away! Goodnight Everyone!
LotsaLurrrveeee,

wello everyone! my internet connection has PMS i swear. anyways i've got to catch up on gossip girl and desperate housewives! rahhhhh. i would watch supernatural but cw's not airing it till 21st jan!! :( sadness.
and i realised this blog has got more readers than i imagined it would. and many more haters. but seriously. i'm surprised some of u actually read the posts, add one of us on msn, wait for us to come online and then tell us that we sound bitchy. i mean come on. our As are over and we thought that we had a lot of time. seriously these ppl need a life. they can go volunteer at YMCA where they MIGHT actually be appreciated.
vithya just wasted my time. i spent a good 20 min searching for a way to lock her blog and she decided not to. tsk. that bimbo owes me. anyway, it's ok. i've got so much time to waste anyway. tsktsk. i feel like cycling. i think i'll go check out the new park later. actually i dunno if it's built yet. hmm. yes anw i've taken a sudden liking to koko krunch. dont ask cuz i myself am trying to figure it out. i'll stop now before i start ranting.

Hello everybody!
I was so engrossed in my game that i couldn't tear my eyes away from my laptop! Been playing since 11am which makes it like 12hours straight! Anyway the only reason i stopped is because there was a glitch and the program stopped running. A sign for me to take a small break. Anyway I think i'll just sum up yesterday and today in this post. I can't remember doing much yesterday. Went to buy my mum some orchid plants and chocolate from Royce',which is by far the best tasting chocolate in Singapore. But then again, best depends on perspective. Anyways, it was just Maithilli, Hariharan and me travelling up and down with flowers. Lol. After that i rushed off to meet Him at Funan cause he promised to get me the game! Haha i swear he is THE best. Came home and ordered pizza. You know they should REALLY monitor the people who take order calls. I swear some of them just 'uh huh, ok, what else' and then hang up! How bloody rude. I actually had to ask him if he got it right. The delivery boy looked like he was 13. Way too small for the pizza bag and definately too small for a bike. Anyway i tipped him! Because he deserved it for risking his life, speeding on the road, just to deliver pizza to hungry people like myself. (:
I swear i'm turning into one of those gaming freaks. I can't remember what i was going to type.
Anyway we went to the Apple store yesterday as well because i was getting irritated with my pink flap cover. So i got this totally unglam but user friendly hard case for my iPhone. And well i practically blew off all my plans today. Lol. Went to my grandma's place and had a good time with the other kids! Yes despite the fact that i'm in the last few months of my LAST teenage year, i still consider myself a kid. Lol. Was supposed to meet Shiv but that plan didn't pull through cause i had elsewhere to go which really doesn't count because i brought my laptop along to play!(:
I spoke to Van after quite some time yesterday. Her oldest brother's in hospital with a high fever. She sounded pretty worried before she went to the hospital. Hope he's doing better now. She's officially gonna be at the shop full-time so i hope she doesn't exhaust herself either really.
I think that's about it for now? I'm really just stoned.Random Thought! I Suddenly feel like going back to the Egyptian restaurant He brought me to in Jan this year. Craving the Kebab.
By the way, i also want to send out a message to some of these "haters" as Rev calls them. If you have something to say, say it. If you have nothing nice to say, it's okay just say it. If you have nothing interesting or useful to say, fucking zip it. To the loser who came online to tell me that i critisise too much and that i should look at things from a general point of view, screw you. I say what i like.

Thank you for patronising our blog.

Okay so what the hell is a "blog website" ? That aside. We're entertaining you man. You read, you smile, you laugh, you yawn, you get ideas, you try and you buy. So overall, we're still entertaining you with whatever we type. You read it to get an insight into someone else's life and well, you compare or something. I'm not discouraging negative feedback here. Say whatever you want but please keep it to the tagboard yeah? And unless we say something brutal/cruel/false/hurtful about you(name will be mentioned btw) please don't get personal. We don't appreciate it. Revethi may be pretty nice with her words but i don't think my tongue can hold. And there's a limit to her nice-ness as well.
Other than that, everyone and anyone can leave comments on the tagboard! (:
Tommorrow is a long day. Hopefully no one else adds me on msn and gives me stupid, redundant comments.
So i'm guessing i'm just going off to bed now. Can't find anything to do already. Today Vee, Mai and i talked about pick up lines. So before i go, here are a few pick up lines all you single people out there can experiment with:

My magic watch says that you don't have on any underwear. (She says yes I do) Damn! it must be 15 minutes fast
I'm not Fred Flintstone, but I can make your bedrock!
You may fall from the sky, you may fall from a tree, but the best way to fall... is in love with me.
Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again?
I want to tell you your fortune. [Take her hand and write your phone number on it.] Your future is clear.
You know what would look good on you? Me!
If you were a new hamburger at McDonald's, you would be a McGorgeous.
It's a good thing that I have my library card. Why? Because I am totally checking you out!!
Are you a parking ticket? Because you've got FINE written all over you.
Do I know you? Cause you look a lot like my next girlfriend.
People call me John, but you can call me Tonight!
You must be Jamaican, because Jamaican me crazy.
I'm gay, think you can convert me?
Somebody call the cops, because it's got to be illegal to look that good!
Did it hurt when you fell? [Girl: Huh?] When you fell from heaven?

Happy getting slapped people! GoodNight!
LoveLots,
Ragini(:


Hey guys! The song is lagging my com so i had to take it down or else i won't be able to post in peace! So sad right. Anyway i found afew other people who can sing it already! Everyone wants to sing to me. It's a natural instinct actually. And a very unhappy person called ace tagged just now. I mean seriously. I won't comment on it yet. Maybe later during my end post.

Hello everyone!
Revethi and I went to the museum today! Haha. We walked from my place to the museum actually. It was really really cool. Worth every dollar really. The place changed so much since the last time i went there. It looks old and nostalgic from the outside but inside it's modern and chic. They currently have two really cool exhibits. One's called DoubleHappiness. It's a photog exhibit by this guy named Chang about the Chinese in a different perspective. Three segments consisting of Taiwanese men's vietnamese wives, Mentally unstable people and Chinese immigrants in New York. All three were eye openers really. The Vietnamese wives one was really pityful actually. Some of them were as young as 17 and really pretty but their chinese grooms were like, 60+? Wth right. Apparently they meet and the guy chooses which girl he wants out of the whole group. He then pays about US35K for his bride. 3 days later, they get married along with other couples. The women have to suffer because they are suddenly thrust into a different culture with a different language, different food and different ways of life. Kinda reminded me of pet shops. You know when people go and pick the cutest puppy and pay to take it home. Then they neglect it. Animalistic comparison. The other two were not as impactful. The New York immigrants one really put me off. The men work 20/7 and sleep in overcrowded dorms and building rooftops while their family back home in chinese villages have handphones, air-conditioning. They're considered to be living a life of ''luxury''. You enjoy ''luxuries'' at the expense of your father's entire life. Sounds farmilar? What really grossed me out is that the kids are actually VERY happy. Enough about that. The second exhibition was much cooler! It's called Voom and i forgot who the artist is. Some farmilar faces we saw included Brad Pitt and JOHNNY DEPP! Lol. Before we entered the hall we didn't know the ''paintings'' were actually videos. The very first one we saw was a Shaggy dog panting away! Haha! Totally adorable. Three of these videos really got to us. One, the panther: Breathtaking video! The panther was so calm. Maybe it was drugged but nonetheless it was really beautiful. Two, the arrow guy: He was still we didn't know if it was a picture or video! He controlled his breathing dammit! Kudos to the guy for making it an awesome work of art! Three, Johnny Depp: Not based on how much we like him. His picture had a very 'PiratesOTC'ness about it. His face was serious but the picture has some humour to it! Plus he had on a feather boa! Haha!
After that we went to the gallery of Singapore History. Found out A LOT of things about our pre-colonial history. Stuff like the different tribes in singapore and how the three princes, the oldest being Sang Nila Utama, are actually connected to Indian Mythology! And the there were the Malayan tales as well. Interesting. Oh and did you know that the Dutch wanted Singapore so badly that Raffles and this Dutch guy Van Der Something almost declared war. People actually wanted Singapore pretty badly then. Times have changed. Now we're the irritating little poison shrimp on the map. I was about to type something out but i stopped myself because i KNOW i'll get arrested for saying that. But i think i can go as far as to tell you guys to go and check out violation of human rights.
Went to The Flyer to eat afterwards. Couldn't finish our food for once. Lol. Other than that nothing else happened.
OH WAIT. I got the song up. Make sure you pause it after listening or it'll go on and on. Lol.
I'll post later when i have more to say!
