Jai Guru Deva....Ommm

The Beatles were obsessed with India. Met the big guns,the gurus and all and sang this song for him ..well till he was accused of molesting a young girl...then they sang another song.

Right so... DEEPAVALI is near!and its probably the best time of year for me. Taiping, food makes you gain 10kgs, new clothes, family. there's absolutely nothing to NOT like about it. One small thing MAYBE would be that its always around exams of some sort. Last year it was STPM,this year its my 1st semester finals....but that doesn't change that it's Deepavali and strictly no books allowed!

So college has started, well for two days before it was back to having a break again.

Tuesday, i realised that i liked travelling on the train these days. Sure it's tiring and takes me almost 2 hours (1hours on GOOD TRAIN DAY) to get to college but it's not that bad. I've actually met quite a number of interesting people. Quite a number of strange people too. and Friends i haven't seen in ages. and "Friends" i DON'T want to ever see =). and Everyday something interesting happens on the train. oohh and KL central is trying the new cue system which is cool once you figure out where to cue. There's red lines and green lines and blue lines and the door always seems to open somewhere in the middle but i suppose its not that bad. Oh ohh and they have a new train-voice "kita telah tiba di stesen seputeh. We are arriving at Seputeh station" . i miss the driver saying it at times though cause when he(havent heard a female driver,hmmm) says it, it's all attitude! you KNOW it's been a GOOD day or a BAD day. and they add in a little pzzaass!I've actually started laughing to a few too. Automated voices, well leave nothing to the imagination.

Wednesday, Deepavali mood made me want to clean up the house a little. (i have to watch my words here in case my sister reads this ) it's amazing what semangat-ness can do. Thanks to it, my house smells like Ajax Fabuloso! I packed for my much much anticipated trip to taiping.

Thursday, my baking day (hopefully!) I try to make it a point to bake at least ONE item every year. Deepavali-ness makes me want to bake. Shockingly, i actually seem to enjoy baking a LOT, more than cooking anyway.. just simply for the fact that things you bake doesn't taste half as bad as things you cook when it goes wrong!heheheh...and that happens a LOT!

Friday. Travel day.

Saturday to Wednesday. TAIPING. There's nothing more serene and calm than Taiping. Everything there is just easy....The lakes, the traffic, the everything! It's always a vacation for all of us when we go back there. All i do is sleep and eat and eat and sleep. Oh i do jog more when I'm there, probably knowing the fact that it wont last long ;-) and places you visit once a year has a way of making you wanna do the impossible, make EVERY minute count! Back here, there's always tomorrow.

Next Week... pre-finals preparation! Eeeeekkk......Week After, finals.
