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

I think that my aunt and uncle are pretty cool.

Pamela Ammai and Kiran Ammaman are the best :)

An Afternoon in Annapolis

With my iPod Nano blasting "Time is running out" (by Muse)  in my ears, we set off in the 40ºC heat to Annapolis Docks. Annapolis is a a city in Maryland, right next to Washington DC, which made it convenient to visit. During the course of the 40 minute ride, I fell asleep numerous times due to the heat, only to be jolted awake by my younger sister. I couldn't sleep, though it was very tempting; I had to look at the scenery. After we arrived, we walked around a bit, got greeted by tired, panting dogs and got some ICE CREAM :D

Two scoop ice cream cones here are gigantic, double the size of the Baskin Robbins scoops in Malaysia. Chocolate chip cookie dough was simply DELISH. They even had these small lumps of grey stuff, that was sweet and delicious. The only problem was that we went outside of the ice cream shop as soon as we got them, and after a minute of being outside in the sun, they looked like someone had blasted it with a heat ray. An ice cream that is melting needs a strategic method of licking. I knew what to do and successfully managed to finish the gigantic cone. My sister however, did not eat it at all. She would give it a few light licks then watch as it dripped around her wrists, down her arm, off her elbow and onto her converse. It was quite a sticky situation, everyone who passed stared at her and a few even laughed. I'm not sorry to say that I was giggling too.

After the ice-cream, we rushed to the washroom and then we were back in the car on our way back.

'Twas a pretty good trip according to me. 

HAI.

Hey everyone :) 

Judging from my previous posts you must know that I'm in Washington D.C..

I love this place so much. The house resembles a part of a brownstone house, when it is actually a townhouse. The supermarket is just a block away and the living room glass door opens into the pathway around the the town house.

On the floor of the living room, my baby cousin Anjali sits  on her mat, playing and throwing around her toys. In the kitchen, my grandmother works to keep everyone full (and considerably fatter after the visit). 

I love this place so much. It's perfect.

It is so great to see everyone again. There are the comments about how my sister looks taller than me, and how I'm not as little anymore.

I can't to have fun :)

Hey you guys!

I’m sure I mentioned a million times in my last post about how I’m going to the states. Right now (not literally, since this post was done on word and then pasted onto blogger.) I’m sitting on the plane, waiting for my plane to land in Frankfurt.
I’ve never been to Europe before and though and airport doesn’t really count, and its only for two hours, I can still say that I’ve been to Europe! ^v^

I learned some interesting facts on this flight. Singapore is 10289 kilometers away from Frankfurt, 11 hours and 50 minutes.  I misplaced my book for now and I don't remember how far New York is from Frankfurt, but it was an 8 hour flight.
18 hours in total. 


plane is about to land :)
