midnight fears!

okie ! this is really silly , i know ! but maybe its partial claustrophobia o something but i can never take a nature's call after eleven pm !! trust me.. i mean its after this ungodly hour that i have to pee and i absolutely fear that confined bathroom of mine !
i always have to call up someone or text them n need coaxing to go to the bathroom ! and also as I'm standing in front of those doors i have a feeling that something will either creep up from the sink , or someone will see through the exhaust window or there will be a creepy hand crawling through it !
the fact that its a confined space elevates my fear and also all that I've watched on TV today.. like today for example, i had to pee real bad as mom made me drink gallons of stuff today as my body was overheating ! she made me drink the last bottle of barley water and went off to sleep.. at eleven.. after watching castle , scrubs , 30rock , Hannibal (aah! this was the culprit!) and csi : NY i went on to the next facility of entertainment : FACEBOOK !
as it struck 12:25 a.m., i had to pee ! i had been trying to hold it in but hell, i wasn't ready to go through another night of sheer discomfort ! so yes, i went to the bathroom. switching on all the lights in the process ( yes. i am environmentally aware, which is why i would do the damn thing faster and come back to switch them off. duh!) and finally those creepy doors made me freeze. there was a certain chill in the humid air. also it is the monsoons here.. finally as i went to open the door i had a fleeting glimpse of blood slowly trickling down the walls through the same damn window !! aaaaaaargh !
but wait !
my curiosity overcame the fear. and i opened the door , did my business and zoomed out ! yes.m feeling very triumphant at the moment.
and this will last until tomorrow night.
just like clockwork !

vacation time !

its june. m done with my exams and done with my semester and im done with mysore for the time being. and m back in mangalore ! *nostalgic music*
its vacation time. now vacation for us girls who're bound by rules laid down by parents born in the 50's ( and think like they're from the 15th century) means that we sit at home, learn to cook, go for driving classes, spend time with a la familia , go on temple tours and sit at home. no movies, no TV , no roaming around window shopping and no going to cafe coffee day ( good heavens ! such a bad place ) . no , i don like cafe coffee day . m more of the beer and watch football kind ( or wine ) with my manly buddies and scream n holler the place down or roam around get drenched in the rain , play volleyball in the beach (once again in the rain) and be everythin my mom thinks m not !
so m in a compromise. i sit in my room the whole day, google everythin of interest , facebook 24*7 , play (yes. i do. u got a problem ?) and watch the rain thrash about every electric pole in the area.
if only wishes came true.
and if only my mom knew what im always upto.
i hope that day never comes.

someone owes me big time !

its a really wonderful morning and yes i am in mysore.. n yeah, for the first time in three years i've actually found a morning i've not only liked but also craved a beer to enjoy with.. yes. beer at 8:30 am.. :) a fascination, thats all..
its still raining.. n i woke up to "feeling a moment" by Feeder.. lovely track n it only contributed to my lovely morning.. that was until i stretched , turned over and opened my eyes - n saw my laundry pile ! all the elation i felt a min earlier drained away..
i really don kno what is it with me doin my laundry n rain ! its sheer evil i tell u.. the same things happened the last time i did my laundry n no it was not during the monsoons.. (i do happen to do my laundry at irregular yet frequent intervals , thank u very much..) the last time i had to run all the way up to the terrace to rescue my lovely sun dried clothes !
i am planning to go home this weekend and now m worried.. mom sees my laundry pile n ill have a blasting which will jus shoot me back to mysore.. maybe ill stay back in mysore.. (yeah right!)
it jus looks like one of those conspiracies the universe has against me n good behaviour.
doesn't look like i have much of a choice here :( .. mom's definitely gonna make me eat veggies ( basale , harive , cabbage.. *tears* ) for bringing my laundry home !
(and the track playin right now is "overkill" from Colin Hays.. ITS A CONSPIRACY I TELL TOU ! )

HUNGRY !

my life here , away from home has truly been an ordeal >< ! eating absolute gunk my stomach's gone for a toss.. along with that my intestines too.. to all my friends who are reading this, no ! this is not the result of partying and drinking cos i have not drank anythin but wine from the past FIVE months ! yes. m a strong woman. n yes. a "woman". lower numerical of my height does not alter the fact that i AM a woman.. also , m glad my mom doesnt read this blog ( or my sisters for that matter ) . they'd have a hearty laugh n a smirk for the next seven days just cos i used the word "woman".
now back to the topic in question. "hungry" ! why? the heat here in mysore is killing all of us.. yes, with an upset stomach as the canteen gives u masala n pepper filled food that guarantees u a sick stomach for a week.. which is why m hungry today.. :( i havent been able to eat anythin. at all. save for three teas and tender coconut.
i miss home.
i miss my lunches with sid.
i miss home cooked meals.
i miss the good days.
whe i could eat all i could n sleep it off too.

so in order to help this food deprived person , any amount may be donated.. u can contact me thru my mail n i shall give u a heart rendering story of how impoverished i am when it comes to food. n of course scam u off. n then point at u n laugh..

don worry.. im not all that mad.. its jus the hunger takin its effect on my brains.

ill shut up now.

to all the gods above.. n maybe below too..

i dedicate this post (or specifically just the dedication) to the following :

a) to the gods above : for helping me get through this pre-fest ordeal of the envisioned ENVision.

b) to the gods below : for helping me be such a vamp.

c) to the lecturers of our department.mainly and humbly.

why?

if u have read my previous post, which of course u have my extremely few readers , then u would know about the infamous fashion show happening in my college. wait ! happening?? no no.

okay. i cant help but scream this out : ITS BEEN CANCELLED !!!!!!!

Yay ! Hurray ! eureka.. hallelujah..

*evil smile*

why, again u ask?

oh it had something to do with the intellectual intelligence of my harebrained fraands and them not knowing the basics of organising something as glamorous (not in this case) as a fashion show. and it also had something to do with them not informing the required lecturers.

oh i don't blame them. they were busy u know.. with straightening their hair, doing their nails, tweezing their eyebrows, facials and what ever that's needed for a fashion show. oh no ! u thought it had to do with them getting costumes , backdrop n lighting?? oh Ur so funny ! pshaw. that's what i had to manage sweeties. dint i mention damage control?

so now that the fest is tomorrow and the show was scheduled to be tomorrow and it got cancelled at the last minute ( no , not exactly but it'll do) all the anti-harebrains are exhilarated.
but I'm not so evil either.
i give hearty condolences to the harebrains and their blondish intellectuals committee. for them , i am deeply regretful , remorseful and all the other -fulls that fully explain how deeply sorry i am. i am also remorseful for the fact that my lecturer did not cancel it today evening because that would be the ultimately typical "last minute cancellation". but then again life is not easy and it sure does not let us have things our way. or the way we want our lecturers to do things our ways. i understand Ur pains. or not. u know how much i care.
so of course I'm sorry.
aren't we all?
gahahahahahaha.

grumble grumble n more grumble.

just when i thought my life in sjce couldn get any more painful in college, we the students of environmental engineering ( pronounced : enviraanmetal) and mostly my humbled seniors of the EEA ( environmental engineers association ) put forth an extremely interesting and happening event : branch fest.
this above mentioned event has been named : ENVision - 2010 . for all of us who do not kno which year we are living in right now, hurray ! we get a reminder thrown at our face at every badly done poster.. this , if we dont already have it in our phones , laptops , pg calendars........................
alright . let me confess. its not the fest that has me on such a crib-marathon. its the events !!! as most of them are pretty fun n jolly like an Irishman there's this one particular event that has caught my rapturous attention regarding its resourcefulness in raising awareness.
and the event is *drum roll* a fashion show ! aren't my seniors so darn clever. i kno ya.
as if their cleverness had not already been demonstrated they decided to put it into use. by handling the responsibility to the two most harebrained girls of my class. and this extremely clever decision was made due to the fact that they supposedly , umm , "carry" themselves well.
my poor highly envisioned seniors did not see the damage which was about to unfold on all us envi engineers.
so by the time they did realised it , in came myself n a friend from m-tech for damage control. yes , it did take all my seniors ego n pride (shedding of it that is) to come to me n hell yeah , a fashion show is not my thing. so smart little me enhanced the theme ( conveniently "elements of the earth") into something more of a play cum fashion show thingy and even gave the required music. as the earth was an entity older than new lil species of us humans , a traditional fashion show would be apt thought me n said so. my harebrained not-friends finally got an inkling of an idea as to what must be done.
but , as dumb blondishness struck cruelly upon my fate (luckily though) my harebrained batch mates forgot about the theme n established some sort of their-own-idea strategy which wickedly resembled my theme ( shocker! ) n went ahead with the whole planning n all the blah that was needed.
so i bowed down elegantly n washed my hands off this seeming disaster n left them at their work. the poor things.
now the scene a couple of days later : dear lil me has been reassigned for damage control as , *snicker* , the all the gods of disaster have descended on the theme. my not-friends have forgotten the theme n have made it a western cum traditional fashion show. which was why i have been secretly assigned for damage control. secretly, lest the harebrained committee put up a protest citing lack of faith , trust , responsibility and other seeming nouns and adjectives n what nots which can be used to fill up the blonde blanks.
the end result : not yet known. the rehearsals are tomorrow and i will be requested to do what has to be done. maybe i will , maybe i wont. depends on how my ego is pumped.
*evil laugh*
