SCHOOL.

Okay so, here is my longer post.

It's Suh's BRILLIANT idea for us to start writing for the Berita, which is our school magazine. We hunted for the PA (The parent association) for a bit because we desperately, or at least I desperately wanted to see my writing in print. Unfortunately, we couldn't contact them. FORTUNATELY,  Suh's friend told her about a school newspaper, the MKIS BEAT! that was full of student's works, art and photographs that was about to be launched. This Tuesday, Suh and I are going to ditch lunch and go for our very first meeting!

I really hope that they will let me write short stories for the newspaper or better yet, give me my very own COLUMN for my weekly/ monthly writings. FINGERS CROSSED!

Anyway, this week has been rather long, though other people think otherwise. Lessons are long, but I'm using this time to get to know my other friends that I wasn't that close to in the first place. <3
I hate PE right now, mainly because its full of running. I love swimming. This Saturday, I'm attempting 800m swim in 15-16 minutes. If I approach 20, my dad wins. He doesn't think that I can do it, but I'm going to prove him otherwise!

Well. I'm running out of laptop time, and I need time for research on my current events. Oh yeah :P I nearly used a year old article for CURRENT events.
I'm smart aren't I?

The Kite Runner (NO SPOILERS SO DON'T WORRY.)

I loved this book. Khaled Hosseni is a beautiful writer. When he describes something, I can practically see it in my mind's eye. It's one of the rare books that speaks to me. I feel like I'm IN Afghanistan, watching Amir in his life with his father and Hassan.
The books is also terribly depressing. It was hard to sleep last night because I couldn't stop thinking about the events of the book. However, it did finish on a good note...ish. Depressing or not, I have to read it again.

Sorry I've been MIA for a while, my computer time has been limited -.-

Well, in the past week or two since I last wrote, I've started school again ^.^
Unfortunately, I don't have many classes with most of my friends, but I guess its okay. I have two classes with Suh though :) and I'm growing closer to her :)
 WELL.
I have to go but I promise I'll write a longer post tomorrow!

Na and Dan

Two of my best friends left this year: Nanibananinapodnano and Dahn the Cave Man.

I miss them already and I've decided to dedicate a blog post to both of them.

Na: You are one of the most amazing girls that I've ever met. You were the first person I brought over to my house and I was quite proud of that. You even watched a hindi movie with me on that first day, something I found pretty impressive. Since Day 1, you were my personal make up artist, something other people found troublesome, but you poured your heart and soul into making me look beautiful and then photo shooting.
You are so cheerful and happy and pretty and (endless good adjectives.) I always knew I could trust you and you never gave me a reason not to. You helped me improve myself and I'm thankful for that. I hope I was there for you as much as you were there for me.

Dan:
Oh Dannydandan. You are quite adorable with your amazingly hilarious faces and your witty comments. I love how you are always there and helpful and everything. Though we didn't get much chance to bond in the time that I was here, I really enjoyed it.
"You broke her wardrobe due to your CORPULENCE!"
"MEGHANA!"
"DANIYELLE"
"I LIKE EGGS"
"Oh my Voldemort!"

Asian Studies was a fun time with you, and I apologise that I haven't written much, since I can't put into words how I feel about our relationship, but I hope you understand what I'm trying to say.

I miss you both and love you too
