yes i had a leaflet through the post today talking about graduation! argh! scary to think that ill be graduating from lufbra in less than a year! feels like ive been here for years (well 5 to be precise)! i moved into lufbra properly today so im sitting in my cold student house (too cheapskate and lazy to turn on the boiler!) trying to fit all of my stuff into my room. its much bigger than i thought and my walk-in wardrobe is fantastic! hehe! i only have 25 pairs of shoes with me and 17 bags, im slacking! last night was, erm, interesting! we were home by 11:30pm, grrr hinckley sucks! wont go into details but just grrr! i hate bouncers and policemen! hehe! ive updated my photoblog with some old photos i found lingering around on my pooter, some of you might enjoy looking through them! thats it for now, just about to go and meet nat bitty and go out and about in lufbra! the terrible two are back in town!! xxxx

I was checking what it says on the BTPL website yesterday and under the list of clients they have emporio Rmarni and tommy HILFINGER! hmm! not sure if these are new and exclusive designers ive never heard of, the cheapo rip off version or just a spelling mistake! hehe made me giggle anyway! as well as writing my dissertation im also watching 'pimp my ride' on mtv, theyre taking crappy cars and making them even crappier! stop it with the body kits, stupid sound systems and glittery paint! argh!!! im off out tonight with the woodlands crew! yaya! not seen them all since i got back yet so cant wait to see them! partay in hinckley! :-S eek! ill write more later depending on whether i survive late night hinckley! wish me luck!! better get back to my indian lunch now.........SUPER NOODLES!! hehe xxxx

tonight i feel like a tiger!

RARRRR! hehe. thats what one of the guys in reel big fish kept saying last night! the gig was ace! i loved it! dave actually admitted that i knew more songs than him which is a first i think!! they did 2 of my favourite songs their cover of 'take on me' which always makes me scream when i hear the first chord of it! its an automatic reaction! the other song was 'dateless losers' i love the chorus 'we are the dateless losers, lonely until we die, so unappreciated, why why why why?!' hehe. they did a few songs from their new album, which i got today but it was mainly all the older ones that i know and love! so i sang/shouted along while dave stood with his arms folded (its not cool to look impressed apparently! so i was looking seriously uncool!!!!). im still really happy from the gig, i was so excited! we missed the first support act cos we were in pizza hut, the 2nd group were called 'skinjury' they came on saying 'do you like punk? *crowd screams*

an indian reunion in france!

what a wicked weekend! i left zodiac on friday afternoon, i was quite sad to leave cos id had a great time! caught the train to waterloo and met anna in the eurostar cafe, she'd dyed her hair and turned into a brunette and i almost didnt recognise her! it looks so nice though, makes me want to get on with dyeing my hair again! got to calais frethun and waited for fan, meanwhile i called emhen to find out where she was and it turned out she was at the wrong station and had had a little bit of french plonk! hehe! we eventually all met up anna, emhen, fan, geraldine and i and went to fan's holiday home in a little village called Wissant. the house was lovely and we sat down with bread, cheese, french sausage, wine and beer and caught up on all the gossip and thought about the good old days in bangalore! the next morning we went for a loooong walk on the beach! the weather was lovely and we could see dover! there were people kitesurfing, windsurfing, jogging and swmming

i may be missing india too much!

well its my last day at work today. :-( ive really enjoyed it actually! got one more visit this morning to see another buyer and then im off to france! woohoo! cant wait to see all my girlies! :-) got an email from srinath this morning: You may be missing India, when you ...... ....Re-wire all the lights in your house and insert a random selector .....Start washing your clothes in the local river -id forgotten how amazing washing machines and tumble dryers were so i dout ill be going back to this one! .....Start commuting to work on the roof of the train -it nearly came to this today! .....Start sucking aniseed so you can spit on the wall in the yard .....Put a 'Horn OK' bumper sticker on your car and blast horn every 3 seconds .....Re-wire the bathroom to leave all the cables exposed .....Start peeing in your sink .....Set the farmers cows free to roam the streets .....Open a market stall to sell used false teeth. .....when at Starbucks, you get a second, empty

well and truely cream crackered!

im sooo tired at the moment! still loving work though! ive been sitting in on meetings with clients yesterday and today and its all very interesting. yesterday was great cos we were on oxford street and after our meeting it was time to go home so instead of going home straight away i visited schuh! hehe. i did end up trying on 5 pairs of shoes, i only came out with one pair though thankfully! can you believe that out of all my shoes i own, i dont have one pair of comfy work shoes so i decided to invest in a pair! they are very nice and actually fairly sensible! wow! hehe! only got 2 more days left at work now, its shame, id liked to have worked there a bit longer but a week's given me a taster! at least i can have loads of lie ins next week! cant wait! hehe! not really with it tonight, bit like a zombie so i think im off to bed! *yawn* nighty night! xxxx

just finished my first day of captain kirk and no need for any ducking and diving!

well 1st day of work's over. it went well and they all seem a nice bunch of people. wasnt too hard to get from where im staying in woking to mortlake either. off to visit topman tomorrow i think then some other visits from various companies during the week. i couldnt concentrate very well knowing that the last day of the cricket was on. noone in the office was that bothered about it either so i only caught the score every half hour when the news came on! incase you hadnt heard WE WON! hehe. really wanted to watch it but just seen the highlights on the tv which wasnt as good but never mind! came back to aunty dels house tonight to find them dogsitting. shes a really cute brown labrador, very jumpy and has a liking for yoghurt! i walked in and she stole one of my shoes off my feet as i was walking (theyd been hurting me all day though so i didnt mind them being taken off me!) then when i was having my tea i had to leave a bit of yogurt in the pot so that she could lick it

hi ho hi ho its off to work i go

im off down to london this afternoon ready to start work on monday with zodiac. im dead excited, cant wait! not too sure what ill be doing exactly but itll be good experience and at least ill get some money! yaya! hehe. next friday im off the france to visit miss fan and some others from the india crew, should be ace! so a good week is looming! maybe even get a chance to shop in london sometime in the week! hmmmm! my wages might not last that long actually!! yesterday we went on ashby canal for the day. we had some americans coming to visit the uk and we said we'd help them get settled on the narrow boats. it was so relaxing and brought back memories of the backwaters in kerela (a very loose connection but there was one!). the only downside was the grotty weather, it drizzled all day (it was that fine stuff that soaks you through!) but didnt dampen anyones spirits. we did the typical tour guide thing and took them to bosworth battlefield and then into market bosworth for a pub me

forget RolaCola, top of the pops is the official crap pop!

its true. i can see why its moved to sunday night (not sure how long its been on a sunday but it was news to me!) it was really poor. i used to love totp and all the cheesy pop stuff etc but i watched it last night and it was painful! couldnt switch it off cos i thought it must get better at some point but no, it didnt! the only good bit was gorillaz being number one! anyway rant done, i always seem to start my blog with a grumble at the mo, sorry! saturday i went to windsor and had quite a nice day. shopped for a bit and went on the open top bus. i also got to see 3 mates i hadnt seen since chrimbo-caz, helen and qyan. had a good catch up and a giggle. ive almost seen all my mates now since getting back, only a few more to go! on the way home i got an invite from damith to go out in lufbra again! so of course i said yes, got changed in 10min then was back out again to boogie the night away. i need to be careful cos soon im gonna be seen as a regular in 'Chos! the em
