awesome's partay!

mommy dearest
my mommy dearest suddenly insists in controlling me mega-ly. i really dunno why la. haiyo. she was just superbly stubborn in not letting me go for brenda's farewell party (which has been said to be the "awesome partay of the year"). so, dakshy, not being able to do much about it, had to just shut up and listen to her.
what to do la? i'm still under-aged and havent obtained my own fucking driver's license.

siewie saves the day
last night, siewie called.

"dak. you coming for the party rite?"
"no la.. my mom's not letting me go! damn pissing of you know!"
"well... how IF you tell her that i can provide transport?"
"actually, it isnt about transport.. its just that its too late at night la."
"but i want you to see my new haircut!"
"new hair cut?? now i wanna go! how siewie?"
"how IF you tell your mom that ................ ??"
"OH MY GOD! that's a really good idea. but, i dont think she'll accept the second part of it. lemme try asking her."
"okie! make sure you gimme some good news!"

final decision
after the mega pleading and literal begging....

"fine la fine la. just go. haiyo... children nowadays can be SO persuasive la!"

muahahahahahahahaha! i'm going for the partay!

what to wear
some how or other, the most stressful part of attending a function would be when the question "what do i wear?" arises. and damn it! it has just risen. actually rite.. i never bothered thinking of what to wear cos i just never thought my mom would allow me to go. so, i didnt bother thinking much. but now, since i'm going, i have just come to realise that i have less than 5 hours to pick something to wear, get dressed up and look for a birthday gift for awesome. damn it!

my options would be:
@-- pants and a blouse (formal)
@-- jeans and a blouse (smart casual)
@-- skirt and blouse (elegant)
@-- super short skirt and blouse (kinky)

hmmmm...

baking outta the blues
day before yesterday, for no absolute reason, i thought of baking. asking opinions for what to bake, it turned out to be a cake. after thinking a while, i came up with an orange cake. the perfect orange cake (dakshy's very own recipe).

and the baking began.

wah! one hour later, the whole house was filled with the smell of my orange cake. fantastically fantastic! perfecto! exquisite! simply beautiful! name it la. it was just happening. perfect moisture, perfect texture, perfect colour, just perfect.

ok. i should stop.

anyhow, after that, my sista and i thought of baking strawberry choc chip cookies. and not surprisingly, that was also perfect.

playing safe

before my friends decide to whoop my butt because i havent been blogging regularly, i shall play safe by just blogging though i've got so many many things to do right now. : )

driving
dakshy's supposed to have registered for her driving classes and started her undang-undang nonsense, BUT nope. i havent registered. wait, i havent even found a place to go for the classes. so, yea. i guess i'm yet to complete my after-spm must-do's. damn it wei. i have gotta complete the bloody list before my matriculation starts la. ish ish.

nevertheless, i have felt the ultimate pleasure of driving a mercedes benz, honda city and a savvy. so, i guess i'm not that far behind my list. *winks*

holidays!!
while hanging with my family the other day, we were discussing about the right place to go for holidays this year as we've all had a super stressful year. so, thinking thinking thinking.. suddenly, my sista comes up with an ingenious place to go to.

SINGAPORE!!

well, it was ingenious to me cos i've never been there before. yea. i know i sound bad shape. but yea. everyone in my family have been to singapore except me. and that would be because i wasnt born the first time when they went as a family. and i guess that would be one of the disadvantages of being born very much later. you just miss it. simply miss it.

so, anyhow, coming back to the holidays plans. we have decided to go over to singapore on the 26th, 27th and 28th. that would be the day after christmas. we'll be staying over in my aunt's place in johor and visiting singapore. also, we've added into the plans to spend a day at a happening waterfall in johor on one of the days. lets just see how things go.

holiday go-ers would be :
yoga, dakshy's family, shamita's family, mira's family, aunts.
total : 18

that's gonna be quite a big group of us going together gether.

christmas decorations
oh lord!! you've gotta check out the curve's christmas decorations wei! no joke. its GORGEOUS!! seriously. its a happening white christmas there. ish ish. so beautiful wei. i really wonder where they get all the inspiration to do all these stuff wei. and it seems that midvalley and the curve are competing for the best decorations. midvalley's decorations are no less attractive wei. its like an autumn christmas there. damn chun man.

christmas is my most favourite time of the year wei. so, if i start getting a little carried away, dont bother.

new year plans
for the upcoming new year, dakshy's joining her sista for some "adult" celebrations. yeap. i'm officially going clubbing! haha.

but actually right, i'm not that excited. the whole idea of being in a place filled with cigarette smoke and people wanting to fall all over you for 5-secs pleasure puts me off. i think i'll just go over for about an hour and then go out dating with my bf and spend new year's with him some where quiet. that's more like dakshy.

new year's dress
dakshy will be going for new year's dress shopping too! whoa! that's something i'm really looking forward too. because, recently i've been having happening cravings for nice dresses. maybe because i've waxed my legs and now my legs look bloody good and shapey. haha.

but anyways, will be going with my sista for dress shopping on the 29th. most probably. : )

college
havent registered. havent thought about it.
fuck it.

after math

oh my god. if my blog were to have hands and legs, i would have confirmly gotten a slap across the face and a kick on the butt. no joke. i havent blogged in centuries wei. i feel so un-updated.

after math of spm
spm ended on the 26th of nov. the MOST memorable date of my life as i finally finished my highschool and sad bye-bye to history, biology, bm and moral. oh yes and not to forget EST. yeap. most memorable date.

celebration for spm
initially, plans were, we were all supposed to watch a movie and then head back home as a big family and chat the whole night. also, my sleep-over was supposed to take place. BUT, as we all know, that didnt happen. instead, after my spm, i headed back home, had my shower and came to the shop. in the shop, i was lepaking the whole day. the whole bloody day. it was fun though. you know, enjoying yourself without having the guilty feeling. wah. happening wei.

anyways, that night, yoga, dakshy, sista, shamita, mom, sucjita and aunt sue went out for ice-cream to baskin's. initially, it was damn fun cos we were all chatting and all. after that, it got kinda irritating when mom started stuffing me with the ice-cream. seriously wei. you can stuff me with normal food. but ice-cream?? you want me to look like a pumpkin is it?

relationship
dakshy's in a relationship! with who?? well, if i was willing to let the whole world know, i would have titled the blog with his name. so, you figure.

plans
after spm, there were quite a lot of things i wanted to do. as in piercings, driving, outings, college, dresses and all. but currently, the only thing i have done is WAX MY LEGS. wah! wei. my legs are bloody chun now ok. they're like bloody silky and all. it was quite a painful experience but what the hell. the outcome was fantastico. now, dakshy only wears skirts and dresses. hehe. and i made a recent discovery.

i have got bloody skinny legs! BLOODY SKINNY! i never knew la. damn it. its time to build some muscles in the gym.

blog later
wei. i really no mood wanna blog la. cos i've got a project to finish. i'm doing some body's birthday gift actually. and i simply cannot rest in peace before i get it done. you know me. so, i shall blog once i'm done.

9 down, 1 to go!!

9 down, 1 to go - courtesy of awesome
oh my god! it's really one more subject more for crap-shit-good-for-nothing-bitch-pain-in-the-ass-mother-fuckin-SPM to be over. just ONE MORE!!
a little exaggeration:
just 2 days. after that, i'll be floating in freedom blown by the november 26th's wind. i'll be breathing in the sweet scent of relaxation given by the rustling of paper when biology 3 paper is collected by the invigilator. i'll be walking on the path leading to heaven tarred by the celebration confetti. i'll be opening my eyes to the new realm of peace designed by the jumping and rejoicing form fives. i'll be listening to the soothing lullaby sung by the screaming science stream students....mmmmmm....
wah. call me Shakespeare's daughter wei. haha.
end of moral for life
moral is officially over! O.V.E.R. i tell you! haiyo.. i cant express the way i feel right now. i think i just need more than words to let you all know how G.O.O.D i feel right now. there's NO MORE memorising nilais, definisis, kandungan akedemiks, NOTHING!! reading all these, you should have just a gist of how good i feel. but, try being me wei. you'll be floating on cloud nine already.
right now - i'm feel weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...
biology - the mother of all disaster that is to strike
oh fuck the world! do they really have to keep the "best" for the last?! why the hell la? can't bio be the first science subject so that we can get it over with?! why the hell does the ministry of education have this much of anger upon us?! ish. so, i guess for the next 2 days or so, cells, plants, blood, heart, animals, ATP, experiments, nutrients and gases are gonna jam pack my brains.
just 2 more days. just 2 more days. *dakshy chants repeatedly*
future plannings - once again
things are finally taking shape right now. mom has decided to apply for the south-Australian-matriculation (SAM) course in either taylor's or sunway. so, that would mean that i'll be spending the next one year (starting from january) doing that. gonna be quite fun i think.
bloody period - literally
on thursday, while talking to siew, pei yi, mei kay and wong, we suddenly started talking about stress and period.
"do you know that both our period is delayed cos we're so stressed up by these exams?" siew asked, referring to herself and pei yi.
"oh really?" i ask.
"yea. but brenda got her period on time." siew says.
"yeap." wong says, carrying up her hand.
"during the trials, my period was bloody hell 3 weeks late wei. i nearly thought i was pregnant." i said, exaggerating just a little.
"how nice if we were all just stressed up 24-7 and then we wont have period at all??" wong fantasised.
we just laughed.
and now, i've got my bloody period. damn it! my stomach is damn painful wei. how on earth am i gonna succeed in studying nonsense-biology with this excruciating pain?! it's not exactly "excruciating" la.. but it's just a pain in the butt - literally.
mouth ulcers and wong
on Thursday, when chemistry 2 - chemistry 3 break was going on, siew, wong, mei kay, pei yi and i were lepaking in the canteen, studying ways to make ester and effects upon electrolysis with different electrodes, when the topic about mouth ulcers came up - courtesy of pei yi, since she had mouth ulcer. we were just talking about how disgusting and painful ulcers can get, especially when you tersalah-ly bite them. ouch! it hurts like hell wei. anyhow, while talking about it, wong came up with the ultimate disgusting statement.
"can you imagine how would it be if your ulcers begin to undergo mitosis and multiply constantly? and then, it's like your whole mouth has ulcers. AND THEN, you bite them all together! the juice comes out with all the blood in it. can you imagine uh?"
the best part was that, she just HAD TO expose her wild imagination just as i was having my lunch. haiyo. i completely lost my appetite. ish ish. wong wong.
sleep over
the sleep over in my house that was initially scheduled to be on the 26th, has been intentionally post-poned to the week after. mostly because mom and sis wants to get some things done at home with my help before i can officially start party-ing with ma homies. and also rite, i feel if it was on the week after, i can all my things at home cleaned, especially my room before we can jam-in. so, i guess its for the better lor. i can also stock up snack food supply during that week to make the night an official blast.
i think this plan is chun-ted bukan main chun-ted.
waxing!
on the 27th, which is a tuesday and my sista's off day, i'm gonna be going in for waxing! finally wei! it's high time i go for a bloody waxing and start wearing skirts without feeling so super duper conscious. i can start wearing short dresses too! ooo ooo ooo! i saw this really really nice dress in the BlackBook in bangsar! it's so bloody nice wei! and my sis has agreed to get it for me! weeeeeee!
just 2 more days. just 2 more days. *dakshy chants once again*

spm - going on

the night before
the night before spm, which happen to be day-3 of deeps, i was in my uncle's place for lunch cum tea gathering. normally right, the first 2 days of deeps would be in ma place and the 3rd ay would be in my uncle's place which is in one of the damansaras. so, leaving home at 12something, we reach there at 1 something. the whole gathering goes fine and we have a whole lotta fun and take a whole lotta pics. that was bloody fun! the camera was clicking nonstop.

but, a few hours later, when it was time for us to leave at around 7 something, my entire family started wishing me all the best for my spm and all. they started hugging me and "motivating" me. fuck wei. that was when i really started feeling that spm was the very next day, in less than 5 hours to be exact. wah. before i could get into the car, my heart started racing and i started having chills already. by the time i could get into the car and be off back home, my heart was beating faster than a bunny's. sitting in the car, i was super duper silent. i barely spoke. my family (mom, dad, sista, grandma) who were in the car with me, were constantly checking on me. i was also loaded with motivating speeches from grandma, mom and sista. dad was least bothered to give a talk as he knows quite well that no matter what, dakshy will not be motivated and will remain silent.
this proves that i got my intelligence from my dad.

reaching home, i head straight for the stairs to go up to my room. my sista then requests me to stay downstairs and watch a movie with her as she didnt want me to be all alone. i oblige and place a pillow on her lap and lie down. i started feeling a little better and less tensed until my mom came over and said,
"dakshy.. are you okay?"

wah. that was when i completely broke down. i was bloody freaked out because of the exams and started crying on my mom's shoulder. then, my grandma came over to me and gave a piece of her mind to me. she was really irritated that no matter how much she tried consoling me just now, i'm now sitting down and crying. i got mega screwing. just what i needed.

minutes later, after the tears had dried up and my eyes were less bad-shape, yoga walked into my house for dinner with dinner as a "surprise". thank the lord that i wasnt still crying. oh lord. what would have happened to my maruah diri?? anyways, he was wearing this really really nice green top that looked really nice on him.

despite being in such a horrible condition, i could still notice fine details. ish ish. dakshy dakshy..

the morning of day-1
reaching the temple at 6.15am, i suddenly remembered that i forgot to bring my IC!!! dad straight away voluntereed to get back home and get the ic for me. then, mom, sista and me, finished our prayers by about 7 and walked down the hill of the temple to get a cab to get to school, as planned since dad had taken the car. walking down the hill, i get a message from yoga saying that he was already in the temple and asking me if i had left already.

"yoga!! oh my god! send me to school!" i said, explaining the whole situation in super speed. he then obliges and send me to school. oh my god. he was god-sent wei. i was getting bloody late to school some more.

my saviour!!

exams review
bm - painful. FUCKING painful.
history - essay was dumbshit.
english - chunted. literature was GREAT.
maths - fantastico!

birthdays
today happens to be yoga and awesome wong's birthday. so, best wishes to them!

deeps arrives!

the night before...
the night before deeps, when you're supposed to be helping your family with the spring cleaning and the decorations and stuff, dakshy and her sista went out for a pre-deeps party. and what actually happened in that pre-deeps party?? ALCOHOL BABY!
damn it la. i dont want it to sound that way, but what the heck.
so anyways, we had alcohol. a whole lot of em. wah. actually, i dont like drinking outside of my house, cos i just feel really awkward. also, i feel that girls should not drink in public and should not look like alcoholics. i know i sound as though i'm from the 15th century, but i guess that's how i am. anyhow, my sista's friends got so excited after seeing me as they havent seen me in a really long time. and also, my spm was coming and they wanted me to "relax". so, i was given a glass with alcohol in it. to be precise, chivas regal.

i thought it was only gonna be one glass and we can go back after that one glass as i wanted to leave really really soon because the dumb mosquitoes were getting the worst out of me. but noooooooo. they continue topping up my glass everytime i was done and never allowed me to finish my drink in full. wah! at the end of the day, i bloody hell had 7 glasses of chivas - on the rocks! haiyo. my head started spinning already la. they made me bottoms-up every glass some more. at that point, i would have been able to sing twinkle-twinkle already as there were so many stars above my head la. ish ish. so much for the 15th-century-dakshy! fuck!

at around 10.30, i was so glad that we were gonna leave and that i can STOP bottoms-up-ing. i reach home and my cousin mira is at my hall all prepared for the kolam she was gonna do.
dakshy. come and help me finish this. i 'm kinda tired and i wanna finsh this fast.
huh? ummm...
what? it's a simple one la. come.
miraka... ummm... gimme a few minutes. i'll be right down.

i dashed up to my room. fucketty fuck! kolam?! i can barely see the bloody ground! how the hell am i gonna see the rice grains on the ground?! not knowing what to do and how to handle the situation, i head straight to the bathroom and switch on the shower and hit super cold water on my head. got wet for several minutes and felt waaaaaaaaaay better. after that, at around 11 something, i went downstairs and finished the kolam happeningly. mission accomplished!

deeps morning
barely slept all night as bloody ass-pee-am was just stuck in my head and spoilt EVERYTHING. at 6 something, mom comes over to my room and literally bangs my door.
dakshy!! wake up wake up wake up! it's deepavalli!
huh?? i mutter as i just fell asleep less than 20 minutes ago.
wake uppppp!
ooookaaaayyyyy...

i wake up and go downstairs. grandma comes over to me with the oil and some herbal stuff in hand. makes me sit down and applies the paste on my hair. she also successfully makes me sit down with that thing on my head for one hour so that it seeps well into my head. as soon as she left my sight, i dashed up to my room and washed my hair 3 times with the shampoo to remove the effect caused by the paste.
2 hours later.....

SUCCESS!! the paste's effect was gone. hair not oily. perfecto!

minutes later, deepavalli morning prayers took place. that was when i played my veena to my sista's singing and got blessings from my parents. me getting blessings from my parents only occurs once a year. that is only deeps day as we get $$$ when we fall on their feet. so, i guess the pain felt when i had to kneel down when i touched their feet wasnt that bad. : )

friends visit
ma clicks came over to ma place on deeps!! waaaaaaah. it was so bloody fun!
siew - walked in with the phone on her ear, talking to her mom about what time she's gotta get back and how she's getting back. (it was all about getting back) i wouldn't blame her though. i was bloody surprised that she could make it in the first place!
awesome - in a skirt as usual. haha. and i humongous marker-written "tattoo" on her arm saying 'i love the click five'. typical.
catherine - runs staright to me and hugs me. waaaah. so glad she could make it.
becca - wore a green top and looked really nice in it (it was green - of ocurse la nice!)
mei kay - in her shorts-looking skirt. so so so excited as it could be seen all over her face. (cho chweet la she)
koo - wearing a punjabi suit in conjunction of deeps and looked really nice. (green again!)

as soon as they came, i toured them around ma place and showed them the entire house. after that, we hung out for a while, while munching down some happening cookies that dakshy made. *smiles* after that, lunch was served on a banana leaf by mom and grandma. so very the fun. ma clicks were so excited, especially mei kay. haha. that one no need to say la. she was so cute. anyhow, while they were eating, i was having the time of my life watching some of them fiddling with the rice to make it enter their mouth.
coughbrendacough
haha. soon after that, mom became the survivor and gave her a fork and spoon. anyhow, they enjoyed lunch ultimately. and that was great.

soon after that, we headed over to my room and lepaked there till they left, while munching down some cookies.

that night
at around 9 something, my relatives started coming in. angpaus count started increasing rapidly. *winks* after all the chatting and the gossipping and the in between fireworks presentation by yoga, deeps gathering ended at around 12 someting.

happy happy happy

jam tarts

ingredients
one packet jam tart mix
2 egg yolks
250g butter
pineapple jam

method
cream butter.
add in yolks and beat till fluffy.
mix in jam tart mix.

i practically memorised the recipe to this cookie yesterday. no joke wei. my sista and i started baking at 10am and stopped at 12am. and YET, we're not done with the orders for jam tarts. we successfully made 4 bottles of jam tarts but we have another 5 orders to go! fuck wei.

i was so physically and mentally exhausted yesterday that towards the end, after baking the last batch, i told my sista that i really cant continue and told her to get the maid to help her clean up. it's usually me who cleans up after the baking as my sista will be in charge of preparing them. but yesterday, my body was just fully used up (wrong choice of words - i know). i simply couldnt move. neither could my brains function anymore. my back was so fucking painful that i still cant sit well. eeeerrrr!

and you know what's the best part? i am actually supposed to be studying but i'm baking jam tarts and choc chip cookies instead. haiyo. something tells me that i'm not doing the right thing at this point. to reimburse all the waste of time yesterday, though today is saturday and it's supposed to be my lepak-ing day in my mom's shop, i've decided to stay at home and study. that's fantastic right?

actually, that depends on whether i really study or not. hehe.

man u VS arsenal
ooooohhhhh damn! tonight is like the MOST anticipated game of the season. i'm so bloody freaked out la wei. haiyo. and the game is at 8pm tonight. i just really really hope that man u wins. if they dont... oh lord. my life would be officially over. my friends, who happen to be arsenal's greatest fans will torture the life outta me. and that's for sure.
rooney - keep scoring darlin! you can do it!
ronaldo - pleeeaaassseeee. for goodness sake, DONT DIVE!
anderson - whoa! you're fantastic! keep playing this way!
nani - run with the wind hun!
tevez - score whenever you get a chance and bring man u to the top of the chart!

countdown to spm
my sista has started making a countdown for spm for me. how fantastic is that? it's like every time she's bored or something, she reminds me that there are only a few days left to my spm and she also does a countdown to the number of days left for my spm to be over. oooooowwwww. how sweet...
DAMN YOU!

medical career
for the paffilion-th time yesterday, my sista and i had a talk about my medical career. oh lord. i really cant take this la wei. why am i being tortured this way? and i just realised that the only reason my sista wants me to become a doc is so that one day, she could say..
"dakshy, my sista, is a cardiologist!"

do you even think that's gonna motivate me in any way to become a doc uh? it's actually making me get even more agitated as the only reason you want me to study so bloody hard is so that you could boast that your sista is a doc. why cant you even think of my happiness at any point? do you know how fucking hard it is to study medicine? it's not something i can complete and pass the cert over to you and move on you know. it's a life-time of studying! how the hell am i gonna do it if i dont like it?! does anybody ever think about this?

why do i feel that everybody around me are being so bloody self-centered? think about me for a second and think of the things i am gonna go through once i embark on my medical career. THINK.
at this point, i feel so low.

baking spree

as deeps gets closer, the oven in my house is required to work over time. that would be because of the piling orders for our deliciously delicious cookies and cakes.
*smiles*
what do you expect la? dakshy is baking. of course la the orders will pile up. they might even mountain. haha. anyways, in the spirit of deeps, cookies, cakes and sweet stuff are supposed to bring the family closer. as preparing them will require helping each other and working together.

deeps - last year
last year, we were baking in massive quantity. no joke wei. we were baking for like closed to 200 orders and stuff. so many many types of cookies and for so many many people. so yea. we were practically baking and baking and baking nonstop before we could clear all our orders. the reason as to why we actually took in that many orders in the first place was because sista, miraka, shamita and dakshy were really really free. sista didnt have much work in mom's shop and so did miraka. whereas shamita and i had already finished our exams and we didnt exactly have much to do in school.

and the results or baking that much was super high profits. that was fantastic wei. but, the results of baking that much was also...
~ sick of the smell of cookies
~ ability to memorise recipe for each cookie off-hand
~ disability to look at cookies
~ disability to stand the taste of cookies
~ dreams all about cookies
and so much more..

nevertheless, it was a fun experience as we were all really really having a whole lotta fun being together and yakking and gossipping all through out. that was really nice. i dont think i'll be able to forget last year's deeps anytime soon.

deeps - this year
no orders for deeps. that would be because dakshy's having her spm. i cant help out with the baking of the cookies as i should be studying for my upcoming spm. and miraka's got a new job which requires a whole lot of her time. and my sista's kinda busy in mom's shop.
that was the initial decision.

right till deeps was around the corner and a whole lotta people started asking why we arent baking this year. all those people started messing with my sista's head. and made her change her decision. now, she's decided to take in orders. that doesnt matter. what matters is that, who's gonna help her bake??

dakshy of course! ish! how the hell am i gonna study la like this?

initially, she said that shamita can help her out with the baking and i dont have to help her at all. but then, after baking couple of batches and realising that shamita isnt of that much help, she resolved to me once again. so, now, i'm measuring flour and sugar rather than measuring the growth of plants due to hormones.

it's not that i'm complaining that i dont have time to study and all. it's just that i feel guilty that i'm not studying you know. it's just that fucking annoying feeling that irritates the life out of you because you're doing something other than studying when your exams are just 10 days away.

fuck! 10 days?!

*dakshy breathes in and out several times to calm down*

headaches
i've been having constant painful headaches nowadays and it's getting the worst out of me la wei. i really really cant stand it you know. and my mood is so badly affected because of it. i can barely concentrate on anything. i think i've got some mega brain disease. maybe brain tumor or some acute nerve problem.
*TOUCH WOOD!*

tuition comes to an end
yesterday was my second last add maths tuition with my add maths teacher. towards the end of class, he was giving me some pep talk. haha.

"dakshini. exams are getting really really close. i know you'll be really stressed up right now and you'll be having all the pressure in the world over your shoulders. your head will feel as though it's carrying one tonne of weight. dont worry. that's something everybody goes through. just remember that you have all the potential to score A1 for your add maths paper. i know you can. just relax and sit for the paper in a relaxed state. you'll definitely be able to score well. and make sure you eat a lot of cucumber and a lot of vegetables. they'll help with your memory and also make sure you're healthy and dont fall sick before your exams. and dont get wet in the rain. especially drizzles. take care of yourself. we'll do some questions next week and you'll be all set for your A1."

waaaaaaaaaaaaah. so motivating wei.

margaret's bday!

margaret
margaret lim is one of my old friends who i've known for quite a long time. but we talk very little. not because we dont have much to talk, but because she talks very little. she's a very timid person. but mind you, she's really really sweet and nice. we've known each other since like form 2 as we've been in the same class and all.

invitation
she invited me for a dinner during the graduation day. when i was on the stage with mary anne and all to take some photos and stuff, she came over to me and invited me. not being able to concentrate on what she was saying, i UNINTENTIONALLY walked away, informing her that'll i be right back. but, i didnt look for her after that as i couldn't find her. i repeat, unintentional.

then, the next day, while i was doing the kolam, i got a phone call from her. whoa! she actually went way out to get my phone number to call me and invite me.
i have to go - i told myself.

directions
the location of the place was unidentified. so, i called up mei kay, thinking that i'll be able to get the directions to get to the place. mei kay defines the place but dakshy doesnt get it. i called up margaret. margaret defines place but dakshy doesnt get it. margaret's mom defines place but dakshy doesnt get it. finally, giving up on me, margaret's mom sighs.

immediately, a lightbulb lights up above my head. IDEA! i send margaret's mom's number to my mom (who was attending a meeting) and told mom to give her a call and get the place. mom does so and succeeds. of course la. it's my mom! how can she not get directions?! she's like the queen of roads and directions. but dakshy is a total let down to her. hehe.

mom then calls me up and defines the directions to the place so happeningly that even my 2 month old cousin could get the place. chunted. these are the times that i love my mom so very very much.
*ahem*
a while later, yoga comes to pick me up from my mom's shop to send me for the dinner.

"so... where's the place?" yoga asks.
"ummmmm..." dakshy trails off.
"dakshy? where's the place?" yoga asks once again.
*dakshy smiles sheepishly*
"you dont know where the place is, do you?" yoga asks.
"mom!" dakshy exclaims.
"huh?" yoga's confused.
"mom knows the place. here. speak to her. she'll explain." dakshy dials.
"dakshy.... haiyo..." yoga sighs and gives up.
*dakshy smiles at her superb idea of calling up mom instead*

after around 20 mins or so, i reach the place safely.

at the party
wong, pei yi and mei kay were there way earlier. and the dinner started just as i stepped in. how happening can my timing get la?? haha. chunted.

karaoke
oh lord. they had bad shape karaoke songs all through out la. i just simply humanly couldnt take it. i dont mind the fact that they had chinese songs, as margaret is chinese and the entire room was filled with chinese people *like duh* BUT, play la some songs with nice beat. haiyo. they were playing sappy songs which make me sleepy and NOT meant for birthdays. and the english songs couldnt get any sappy-er.
*skip*

after party
as the party was coming to an end, wong was about to leave. she was gonna take a train back to her place. i said no. really la wei. what am i supposed to do? watch her take a train all alone at that time of the night? i dont think so. so, i told her that i'll drop her back home. and she definitely agreed as she couldnt stand me being so bloody paranoid. what do i say? i am a little bit of a persuasive person at times. hehe.

map
as i reach back home, exhausted to the core, i go straight up to my room, undress, remove make-up and sleep. suddenly, at around 1 something in the morning, dad comes up to me and knock my door continuously till i replied him over the shut door.

"dakshy. i need a favour."
"now?"
"yea. i need you to help me draw the map to our house."
"map? for what?"
"for the visitors who'll be coming to our house on deepavalli."
"NOW?!"
"yea. faster come downstairs."

and i went downstairs, half sleepy, to draw the map to my house. with perfection according to my dad's description.

call me daddy's little girl.

the indian kolam

saturday night
as i reach home after a really tiring day after my graduation and music class, i walk into my house in desperate need of ATP molecules. anyways, dropping myself on the sofa, grandma comes over and feeds me. haha. she's a darling wei. seriously. and since she wants me to eat so badly, she goes waaaaaaaaaay out to just get food into my stomach.

menstruation cycle's bad timing
i amble up to my room after dinner, cursing and swearing because there were just SO MANY steps in my house and it requires me climb em all to reach my bloody room. and minutes later (literally 'minutes' as i was walking super slow), i successfully reach my room. FINALLY!

dropping my handbag on the bed, i went straight to the bathroom and undressed.
FUCK THE WORLD!
i got my bloody menses. haiyo. just what i need to give the finishing touches to my absolutely "wonderful day". and the best part? i was out of pad. fantastico! aaaaaaaaaaarggggghhhhh!

message sista who was out with her friends :
sis. i need pad. only whisper. nothing else. dont mess with a girl who has got her menses by getting another brand.

sista replies :
ok. oh and btw, yoga read the message. he pulled the phone outta my hand.

WHAT THE FUCK?! haiyooooooooo.. why la? WHY?!

*i dunno why am i capitalising so much*

"early" notification
at around 7am, i get a call from my cousin sista, mira. i pick up the phone. still sleeping.

"dakshy?"
"mmmmmm?"
"i'm gonna do kolam today. i need you to come help. come with your mom to the shop. she'll be leaving in the next one hour's time"
"oh. okay. do i really have to?"
"yes. i'll pay you."
"i'm coming."

so yea. i went to do the kolam after all.

kolam in mydin mall
the kolam was to be done in a mydin mall which is in USJ. so yea. we went there. and since the guy wanted a 10 feet kolam, he got a 10 feet kolam. wei. it was bloody huge ok. it was a peacock within a circle and the diameter of it was actually 10 feet. that's like double my height wei. and we actually took 7 hours to complete it.

dakshy, being the "flexible" one, had to reach out to some of the places to cover em up. that was the most toughest part you know. i mean, when you're doing it, you dont realise the pain, but then, the next day.... you would pray not to get up and be able to just be in bed the whole day. my body felt as though it was hammered like a nail la. ish. nevertheless, all the pain was worth it as the kolam looked gorgeous once it was done. absolutely gorgeous. photos shall be uploaded some time soon.

graduation 2007

late
the graduation was scheduled to start at 8 and students were all supposed to be all dressed and at the complex at 7.30. which means that if dakshy were to be there at that time, i have to wake up at 5.30 and leave home at 7 as i'll take 1 hour plus to get dressed and 30 mins to reach.
BUT
dakshy wakes up at 6.15. finishes getting dressed at 7.20. leaves home at 7.30. and reaches at 8.05. hahahaha. what to do la. i was damn tired the night before you know. i only slept at around 5. of course la cant get up in 30 mins right. some more my eyes were damned puffed up because of lack of sleep. had to apply extra under-eye powder. : (

reaching the place, i walked in like the vip himself. aahaha. with the prefects waiting by my arrival spot, friends waiting for my arrival and teachers greeting me as i dashed through. haha. and after that was camwhore session! whoa! photos photos photos.


siewie and sugary




awesome and sugary


ma clicks




that was when i successfully got hold of ms.khoo and pn.koh


pn.siti - one of my favs

kebaya
ultimately, kebaya wasnt bought. kebaya was borrowed. AND mega hemming had to be done before it was certified by mom to be wear-able. therefore, after borrowing the kebaya on the night before the graduation, mom had to get back home after her super tiring day of work and got hold of the sewing machine at 1am. after hemming the kebaya for a really long time, sewing ended at 1.45am.
result : dakshy looked good

during graduation
during the graduation, i had to sit away from all ma clicks. damn sad wei. this is what happens when you and your friends end up in different classes and the stupid name-list does NOT favour you. damn it! so, due to the fact that i was sitting in between people who i rarely talk to (except mandy chua), i was fiddling with my phone. just as i was reading some of the messages, a NEW MESSAGE dropped in. from siew who was sitting just a few rows behind me. haha. she was bored too. so, we were chatting for a while before the ceremony of officially over. like FINALLY!

oh wait. when my turn came to collect the cert and stuff, haiyo.. my headmistress.. when i "mistakenly" gave my hand to shake, she got hold of it la. and the worst part was that she DIDNT WANNA LET GO! no joke wei. i was actually standing there and waiting for her to finish her "dakshy and spm" speech. i was actually tugging my hand away couple of times before she used both her hands to hold mine and squeeze it like a bloody tomato. after a while (30 secs) i just tugged my hand off really hard and made my way down. ish. cant stand her la.

then the camwhore-ing continued. the camera went click click click! haha. it was fun.

after graduation
was picked up by dad and camwhored more at home. dad was so excited after getting hold of the camera and having his gorgeous daughter *ahem* who was willing to go on and on posing. haha. photos below.





and that wraps up this issue of "sugary speaks".

secret admirer - crap!

Kasturi seminar cancelled
I didn’t go for my seminar today. N.O.P.E. I just didn’t wanna sit in that class all alone, neither did I want to be somewhere so bloody crowded so much so the space given to me to breathe is as big a coffin. (extreme choice of words – I know). But seriously la wei. I dont think I’ll survive another lesson in kasturi’s seminar. For all I know “co-incidentally”, my class might be scheduled for a pervert to walk in a one of the teachers. So, no seminar for me. No thank you.

And I have made up my mind. The next time I step in there (in which I have to because I bloody paid for it), I’m only going in with siew. It doesn’t matter if I’ll have to share notes with her because they don’t give notes out to those who are assigned to different classes. I don’t give 2 fucks ok?!

School yesterday
As I mentioned yesterday, our group studies was cancelled. So, as we decided we should go back, we went over to the phone booth.

“Akka. Dakshy here”
“Yeah?”
“I’m not having my group studies today. Could you come pick me up?”
“Now?”
“Yea la.”
“Can I come pick you up at 3?”
“Why so late la? Come now la.”
“Cannot la. I wanna watch desperate housewives!”

This is when I made a conclusion :-
Sisters give more importance to starworld programs than picking their siblings from school. Therefore, schedule school timings according to astro guide.

Shellacking
The second floor of my house was shellacked yesterday, with strict orders that nobody is to step on that floor till 5pm. And what time does dakshy get back after school? She gets back at 2 something after begging sista to watch repeat of desperate housewives later at night. So, as I reach back home, I am told to be downstairs till 5pm. Without having anything to do as my revision books and stuff are all upstairs in the god-forbid-second-floor, I lie down on the oh-so-comfortable bed in the guest room. It was seconds before I drifted off to the gates of slumber land. Couldn’t help it la. I haven’t been having sleep for the past few weeks.

Anyways, before I knew it, it had already been 2 hours since I dozed off. Not being able to sleep any longer, and having so many things in my head that needs to be done, I stormed out of the guest room carried my bag and dashed upstairs. The things I had to do would be switch on my hp, take my bath, use the pc, and watch tv. Now, you tell me. waiting for 2 hours to do all these is too long rite? my point exactly!

Walking on the “dry” surface of the parquet so gently, I reached my room safely. Pheew! Looking back, I checked for trails. Nope. No trails. Praise the lord. Actually, the floor dried way earlier. It’s just that my mom’s paranoia about the perfect-ness of the floor is really really bothering. I don’t think I can blame her. The shellacking did cost a bomb. Therefore, I’m quite sure that a teeny weeny little damage on that floor is gonna have me looking at one pissed off face who has all authority to throw me out. Due to so, the smartest move would be too take all possible safety measures.

Secret admirer
Last night, while intently watching ugly betty, a message dropped in. Reading the messages sent by an unknown, I replied almost instantaneously.

Holla hot gurl. What doing? Makan d?
Who’s this?
Your admirer. Fantasises you every moment sweety. Damn you look so hot.
Name please. No name, no talk.
Really? Come on. Been stalking you for the past few months now. At least I deserve a little chat don’t i? cant wait to take a bite on you.
Nope. No name, no talk.
Then sorry la. Have to take hard measures then. Hope you don’t regret.
Hard measures would be?
You sill see soon.
Right.
I’ll see you in school or your mom’s shop then.
Great.

And that secret admirer crap was a guy who I’ve been trying to avoid since god-knows when. He’s such a pain in the ass and he just doesn’t get the fact that I don’t like him and that his existence in the same planet as me is very bothering and gives me a bloody hard time. No matter how much you tell them, why is it they don’t get it? Is it because they are too dumb or their skin is 10cm thick?
I really wonder.

Sista dearest
Last night, when my sista got back from a day’s work in my mom’s shop, we had some sister-ly time together. we watched some movies and lepak-ed for a while. Though it wasn’t something big, I really liked spending some quality time with my sista. Really la wei. Its been so long since I’ve hung out with her. I really miss those days when she was still in school and wasn’t working in my mom’s shop. We used to spend so much of time with each other. Though we used to argue really often, we never stayed apart.

We used to watch at least one movie together everyday and talk so much before dozing off together in her room and we used to do our prayers everyday together. Those were the days. Now, she’s got a boyfriend who demands a lot of time from her and she works in my mom’s shop and only comes back home late everyday, exhausted to the core. I guess that’s what happens when your elder sister grows up way faster than you, leaving you to catch up with her later on. And I guess this is how the distance between siblings grow.

Don’t ask me why I am so emo k. just cant help myself.

No studying for the day
Studies for the day has been cancelled. Yup. Didn’t feel like studying today la. Maybe because I simply studied too much yesterday and that my brains just cant absorb anything anymore. So, I guess tonight’s gonna be one long night for me.

Chef dakshy
Today, I woke up semangat-ly thinking that I should do something to help out my grandma. Preferably cook with her. So, having that in mind, at around 2 something, I switched off the pc I was using and went downstairs to the kitchen.

Avva! I’m gonna help you cook today!
Huh?
Yup. I’m gonna help you cook.
Dakshyani. I cooked already. I was just about to call you to come and eat.
What? I though you only start cooking at this time, that’s why I came down thinking that I can help you out.
Dakshyani. If I start cooking at this time, then you can only have dinner everyday and no lunch.

So much for my semangat berkobar-kobar untuk mempraktikkan nilai kasih sayang terhadap keluarga. Cis.

kasturi seminar

kasturi seminar
waaaaaaaaaah. words cant express how much i hated that seminar wei. seriously. but since i'm blogging right now, i shall try my best to express it words.
*ahem*

1. siew and i were separated
yea! siew and i were actually separated wei. i was so fucking pissed you know. though we attempted to be in the same seminar sOo much, we were just separated. fuck wei. it seems that you cant change your seminar session though you know you cant make it for that class on that particular day and even if the class you want to go to is completely empty. what the fuck rite?!
do you actually mean to say that even if the class you wanna go to is completely empty, you just cant go for it because you registered for a different class?! ish! this whole scenario resulted in siew and me being all alone in our classes and yawning our way through each minute la wei. haiyo. i really dont see the use in this seminar thing if the teachers doze me with sleeping pills lo.

2. perverted teachers
wah! the kasturi add maths teacher can be given the award of being the most perverted one on planet earth la wei. no joke. every single line he uses has perver-tion in in (if there's such a word). eeeeeeeeeee! i really couldnt take it wei. and he is a braggart! he keeps bragging about his fantastic methods that can make people get As and that he created them himself and all that nonsense. haiya. you try this with my add maths teacher la. he'll flick you off like a feather.

school today
group studies got cancelled. cos most of them couldnt make it. but what the hell? i couldnt have been able to concentrate anyways. hehe. what to do la. all my ATP had been used up through out the day while running from one corner of the school to the next, trying to get the merit marks for the debate thingy and filling up the forecast results from teachers.
oh yes! and before i forget....
school today was great!
why?
because all ma clicks were present (except mei kay) and the classes were E.M.P.T.Y. it was hallelujah! and i spent 5 periods in siew's class. hehe. and yes! no graduation rehearsal. oh lord.
is this day a blessing from the all mighty??
