Simple question, simple answer

The welcoming "Ding" of the last bell could be heard. Children packed up their bags, and were already leaving Sunday School. My friend and I were talking about the latest songs when a guy walked up to us.
"Hey" said M.N.M
"Hi" I said, as my friend left so we could have some time alone together. Just then, a little kid came and pushed M.N.M.
"What the -?" I said confused.
"My younger brother," he replied.
"Oh. He's cute"
"Cuter than me?"
It was a simple question, so i thought i should give him the simple answer which would make him blush. Instead, i just smiled and walked away..


"What are you daydreaming about?" asked the teacher.
"Huh? Oh, Hi miss. Nothing really," I said with a sad smile.

*Sigh* If only i could go back in time. But one year is ages. And he's probably forgotten me already...

♥♥♥

Arrive in style

A shiny silver car stopped by the school gate. In the corner of my eyes i could see M.N.M., walking through the school gates.

"Bye Thaththa,"

The door slammed and i stepped elegantly out of our vehicle. I could see M.N.M staring, but he recovered quickly and went from the pool side. As usual, i sneaked past the section head and took the "short cut", so i didn't see him after that.

*******************************************

Sadly, it didn't rain a lot today.. But since this is my last term, i gotta keep focused and get really high marks. My mom will kill me if i fail history again, plus Glenny wouldn't accept me if i did, and i don't wanna die so now i study history every Wednesday.. I'm gonna miss my friends and family, especially Dinky. He's like my best friend. Aww, I love him!

Dinky and Snovie 4 eva! :)

Rainy days

Rain poured down. It was a gloomy day, and so was my mood. Homework, piles and piles of it waiting for me at home.

"Only 3 more months. Hang in there kid,"

*Sigh* .Sometimes it hurts to go home, but it hurts even more to stay in your motherland, a place where you don't belong.

Strange meetings

"Tell all the others to come. Quick! We don't allow children to do the papers after two-thirty,"
"Okay Miss,"
I ran up the steps, alone.. The message was repeated to the others, who took ages to come. I was running outta time. Fast. I ran back, and the bridge was coming into sight. I could hear heavy footsteps approaching, but i didn't care. I had exactly 30 seconds to get to the classroom. Next thing i knew i was face-to-face with M.N.M. One of his "brothers" was smirking at us. We were way too close, too close to be just friends. Everything was forgotten for a few seconds. My heart skipped a beat. What was going to happen next? There i was standing with a guy i barely knew, when i had like ten seconds left. He looked like he was going to kiss me or something. I didn't have time for romance just then.
"See ya!" I yelled, as I passed him. I was just in time for the general knowledge test.

**************************************************

♥♥♥

Change - nothing lasts forever

I saw M.N.M after school, talking with his friends. He's changed a lot. Or maybe i never really knew him for who he truly was? I remember only a year ago, what happened Sunday school, the message my best friend whispered to me.

*********************************************

"WHAT?!"

"Shh. Miss is looking!"

"I don't believe you,"

"Would i lie to you? And it is true. He told me,"

"Oh shut up. Why would he tell you, obviously, you'd just tell me, like you did. Who'd do that sorta thing?"

"Err. That dude over there,"

"Would you like to share your conversation with the class?" said the teacher

"No miss," we said as we got back to our work.

"So he said he likes me? me? O.M.G. Eww?"

"Why eww? He's hot,"

"True,"

"Stop talking girls!"

"Okay miss," we replied.

"These sums are too hard, Miss!"
"Yeah, Miss, please give us some easy ones. You love our class," said one of my friends in a persuasive, sweet voice. The teacher was not fooled, and she was not dumb either.
"Because i like you guys, i give you hard sums so you then you can pass the tests easily, and get high marks," *STUDENTS GROAN*
"But miss, in religion, you said that we should treat others the way we would like to be treated. You give us hard sums. So do you like hard sums? Would you like it if someone gave you lotsa hard, confusing sums to do within 40 minutes?"
"No, but we teachers are in uni now, we don't need to do sums, our education is almost over,"
"But what about Ms. A? She's almost seventy. Does she go to uni?"

LOL. Nice one moron. :D

It doesn't hurt to flirt?

The constant drone of her voice filled the air. I couldn't believe that such a pretty teacher, could be so cruel and could have such a short temper. Her teachings were good though. I was tired, since it was the last period - we had a lesson filled with the crappy stuff people did "those days", and I was almost falling asleep when:
A crazy grade 9 guy passed and blew our history teacher a kiss. She slammed the text book down on the table and rushed out of the classroom. The grade nine, was someone we knew. He was a total flirt, but we didn't think he'd do something like that! The poor guy must have got blasted. All the morons were wolf whistling and screaming. My friends and I were whispering. Soon she was back.
"Quiet!" she said. Immediately, the class was silent, and we got back to work.

It doesn't hurt to flirt?


*********************************************************************************

It was my first grade five ballet class and i stayed after my grade 4 class. Just before class began, i talked to our two ballet teachers, about leaving my motherland, about pointe work, and i trying hard to blink back the tears. Eventually, they had to hand me a tissue. One sympathized with me, while the other watched me sadly in silence. I felt better, and danced pretty well. I didn't know much of the complicated steps, but i was not alone. The teachers supported me. Plus, i made a new friend, in grade five, who could dance way better than me. She was bespectacled, silent and shy, but kind and helpful. Every minute of the lesson was spent on dance. By the end of the lesson, i was extremely tired and my feet and arms were aching horribly, but it felt good, to dance, to let the music captivate my heart and soul, controlling me.

MNM - mysterious nerdy man :P

"Our biology teacher wants Snuffles' biology book," a girl said as she entered our class.
"okay," replied the teacher.
I was too busy doing my maths problems to notice, and i was thinking about one of my friends who was not talking to me, because i said something i shouldn't have said. It was all my fault. The devil and the angel where already having an argument in my mind;
Angel: It's not his fault. It's partly your fault. What made you say something like that?
Well, that was kinda true,i really shouldn't have said that.
Devil: Your fault? How can it be your fault? He never says a word, you have to do all the talking for him.
Aha! There was the voice that always stood up for me.
Angel:Maybe he had a bad day. You could have asked.
"Can i please borrow your biology book?" the girl asked me. There was no reply. The voices of the devil and the angel were getting louder, and i couldn't think of anything else.
"Hey, Snuffles is sleeping!" yelled one of the morons in our class. It took a while for me to react.
"Say whaa? Oh.Hi.Yeah sure," I said, giving my book to the girl. The morons were laughing at me. I didn't care. I'd be outta here soon. Only three months left.

*************************************************************

He was walking towards the pool area, with his school bag. My friend and I had gone to buy a milk packet. Our eyes met. I looked away. It had been ages since i last saw him. He was tall and dark but way more handsome than when i first met him...

Had a bad day

Don't you just hate those days when everything goes wrong? Today was one of those days.. School was horrible.. The morons in the back of the class scribbled on our poster that we worked on for ages! We had a huge argument which ended in the morons throwing the poster on our heads.. Not happy. Luckily, we had loads of free periods, but when our Biology teacher found out, she forced us into writing lots of long and confusing notes. But it doesn't end there.. The guys had a fight because one of our classmates' glasses broke, due to some action of the morons, but being morons, they escaped from what they deserve- being kicked out of school. Instead of owning up, the morons blamed some other innocent guy, who got in trouble! How mean can they get? But still, that dude's glasses are broken, so I'm going to give him my Aunt's address - My Aunt is an optician. I can't believe they didn't own up! We should have told the teacher, but we don't like to complain about other students. There's more.. The history period was the worst! Prob'ly because we have the worst history teacher.. Oops! Our history lesson was really boring, as usual.. But today we read about slave trade.. We don't actually learn anything in that period. Anyway, our loving *sarcastic* history teacher punished the whole class after school, just because the morons in the back were hooting and whistling in the silence bell. We didn't even do anything! She reminds me of those slave traders - inhumane beasts!

My grand-dad bought me an ice-cream after school, which made me feel a little better.. Thank God It's FRIDAY!!

Here's one of my fav. songs that i sing when i had a "bad day"

♥♥ BAD DAY - Daniel Powter ♥♥

Where is the moment we needed the most?
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
You tell me your blue skies fade to grey
You tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Because you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well, you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong (ahhh...)

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh, you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

'Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

(Oh, yeah, yeaaah, yeah)
Had a bad day
(Oh, had a bad day)
Had a bad day
(Oh, yeah, yeah, yeeeeah)
Had a bad day
(Oh, had a bad day)
Had a bad day...
Had a bad day...

How to make an excuse

How to make an excuse

Late to school again? Well here's how to make excuses so you don't get detention!

1. Tell yourself what the situation is :This will help with coming up with the excuse. Let's say you forgot your homework. The old dog-ate-my-homework excuse isn't going to work. It has to be something more natural. Something that could really happen, something reasonable.

2. Build up the excuse :If possible, blame it on someone else.

E.g :- "My parents were invited to a family party and I had to go."

"When I came home from school yesterday, I found out my dog was sick, and we had to take him to the vet."

3. Play it cool- stay calm. Speak naturally and calmly, but still with expression. Whoever you're speaking to will think this is really true only if you pretend it actually happened. Acting skills come in handy here!

Tips: Try not to say "umm" or "errrm" too much.

Make sure your excuse isn't too far-fetched. Don't stray too far from the real reason. If at all possible, make it something that can't be checked easily. Make sure that you know who you're making an excuse to. If you say something like "I had to go to a family meeting" to your mum, of course it won't work. Don't use the same one too often. People will start to realize it's fake when you use it over and over again.

Keep on making mischief!

Doesn't mean anything - Alicia Keys lyrics

Doesn't mean Anything

ALICIA KEYS

Used to dream of being a millionaire, without a care

But if I’m seeing my dreams, and you aren’t there
’cause it’s over
that just wont be fair
darling,
rather be a poor woman living on the street,
no food to eat,
cause i don't want no body if i have to cry.
cause it's over
when you said goodbye!

all at once...
i had it all
but
it doesn’t mean anything
now that you’re gone
from above seems i had it all
but it doesn’t mean anything
since you’re gone

now i see myself through different eyes,
it's no surprise!
being alone will make you realize
when it's over!
all in love is fair I shoulda been there, I shoulda been there, I shoulda shoulda.


all at once...
i had it all
but
it doesn’t mean anything
now that you’re gone
from above seems i had it all
but it doesn’t mean anything
since you’re gone

I know I pushed you away
What can I do that would save our love
Take these material things
They don’t mean nothing
Its you that I want
All at once...
I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Now that you’re gone
From above,
Seems I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Since you’re gone

All at once...
I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Now that you’re gone
From above,
Seems I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Since you’re gone....

♥♥♥♥ Tigger ♥♥♥♥

♥♥♥♥ Tigger ♥♥♥♥

Tonight I watched Winnie the Pooh with my brother (LOL- Yes i am like 14, but it doesn't mean we can't have fun!). My favorite character on Winnie the Pooh is Tigger. I dislike Eeyore, who always seems to be in a bad mood.

Eeyore always says “Thanks for noticing”. He has a slow outlook on life. Eeyore is how I see some people. Just plodding through life. Sad. Gloomy. Dull. Forgetting how to enjoy life, and just have fun.

Tigger’s bouncy and full of fun. But the wonderful thing about Tigger is he's the only one. The most wonderful thing about ALL OF US is that we are the only one. Every one of us is the unique person we were meant to be by which ever God we believe in. Tigger is full of confidence and believes that he is awesome.This sort of attitude should be present in all of us. Tigger is also is a trouble maker and loves scaring people- something we have in common. TEEHEE..

We can choose to live life as an Eeyore or a Tigger or somewhere in between. While Eeyore is fun to watch for a short period of time, do you really want to waste your time walking around thinking "poor me."?

Tigger rox!

GROUNDED!

GROUNDED!

Don't you just hate it when your parents say "That's it. You're grounded,"? They just have to take away the things that we love the most. But it is for our own good of course.. But sometimes, they're just too cruel.. Some of my friends are going to play badminton for their sports meet. So i decided to come along and cheer them. I even bought green T-shirt (the color of the team i'm supporting is green). All in vain, my mom said that i can't go because i have exams. Such bad luck! And the worst part is that i'm not allowed to go on the computer after this Friday! I have to study 24/7.. So i guess i won't be blogging until 7th of April - HOLIDAYS!! YAY.. No more grumpy old teachers.. TEE HEE *wink*

REAL EYES REALIZE REAL LIES

REAL LIES

In the world we live in, there are loads of liars! When you lie frequently, people stop trusting you, they don't know whether to believe you or not. Some people, who know you well can tell the difference between when you lie and when you tell the truth.. But is it possible to have a machine that can tell whether you're telling the truth? The answer is yes. There is a machine which does exactly that. Here's how it works:

The lie detector measures skin resistance which goes down when you lie. It compares the normal heart rate, pressure and sweat with those of when the suspect is asked a question. Also known as the Polygraph, the lie detector can detect deceptive behaviour. The lie detector is an awesome machine.. It would be a great device to test your friends' honesty (hope the teachers and parents never use this on us! LOL) .If you'd like to make a cheap, simple polygraph, just click on the link below. Kip Kay's video gives excellent instructions and support, but of course, you should have a little electronic experience.

How to annoy family and friends

HOW TO ANNOY FAMILY AND FRIENDS

Here are some great practical jokes guaranteed to wind up your parents, brothers, sisters or school friends.

* Wait for a rainy day. Pour paper confetti - i prefer glitter - into your mom's closed umbrella and wait till she goes outside and opens it.

* When your brother isn't looking, use a pin to prick a few holes near the top of his drinking straw. Water fountain! he he

* Chew on some small white mints, then pretend to bump into a wall. Moan and spit the mints out.Your Dad will think you are spitting out your broken teeth.

* When a friend is drinking something fizzy, distract him/her while slowly putting sugar into the can. This will make the drink froth up and pour out of the can.

* Buy a few gummy worms and carefully poke them into fresh fruit - apples work best - Give your friends a wormy apple for lunch or leave some lying around for family members to snack on!

Rainbow

RAINBOW

There is no color in the rain,
It's wet, transparent & plain,
Take a ray of sunshine,
mix it with
A shower of raindrops,
Only then the sky is filled with color,
Beautiful weather,
The sky is transformed into a peacock's feather,
To make a rainbow,
Shimmer in the sky,
You have to face the rain,
Knowing that it'll pass by..

Valentine's Day

Valentine's day - the popular festival of love traces its' origin to ancient Rome. The efforts of a daring priest, St. Valentine, is how Valentine's day got its' name. The story goes like this:

During the reign of Emperor Claudius II, Rome was involved in several unpleasant campaigns. Emperor Claudius was having trouble to find soldiers for his army. He thought that it was because the men didn't want to leave their wives and children behind. So Claudius banned all marriages and engagements in Rome (Hopefully this will never happen again! hehe). A romantic at heart, a roman priest, St. Valentine, along with another priest, St. Marius, thought it was unjust to ban marriages. So they secretly married couples who had fallen in love. Once Valentine's secret was discovered, he was sent to jail and sentenced to death on February 14th, 270 AD. The Legend also says that St. Valentine fell in love with the jailer's daughter. Before his death, it is said that he wrote a farewell letter to his sweetheart signed "From Your Valentine.." The priest has made the meaning of Valentine's day clearer and is the hero in this legend..

In the course of time, Valentine's day came to be regarded as the festival of love - not just romantic love. Today Valentines' day cards are sent to friends, teachers, parents, siblings and sweethearts. The popularity of Valentine's day has spread all over the world, and is increasing year by year..

Baffling boxes

BAFFLING BOXES

During the holidays, I went on a trip with my family. The hotel we were staying at had a smashing souvenir shop. One impressive item caught my attention. It was very unusual and unique.. terrific for troublemakers like me! It looked like an ordinary wooden drawer, but when you open it, a fake snake slithers out. My mother was paralyzed and almost dropped the box when the snake suddenly appeared! LOL. I decided to play this trick on another family member- one of my cousins - just to test his courage. He passed with A+ (maybe hero training helped *wink*). He wasn't surprised or scared - probably because i gave him too many clues.. But i still think it's a great product. In vain.. I should have brought another as a present for our new maths teacher.. TEE HEE

Ghost in the Chimney

THE GHOST IN THE CHIMNEY

Yesterday, I learnt a really spooky piece on the piano. We (My dog and I) decided to play it at night - to terrify the people at home! So last night, by the lovely silvery moonlight, I played " The Ghost in the Chimney" from scenes of childhood - by Theodor Kullak (1818 - 1882). My dog (Dinky) barked like crazy and backed away in fright. I reminded him about our evil plan. He stopped barking and accompanied my playing with his dreadful singing (more like horrible howling!). After a few minutes, we stopped and ate some cookies - singing and playing the piano sure is hard work! *wink wink* We noiselessly slipped upstairs (after making ghastly groans, sighs opening and shutting doors - just to scare the servant - he he). Soon we were drifting off to sleep.. Unfortunately, my brother (the person we were actually trying to frighten) said that he slept very peacefully that night. He didn't even notice! The servant said that she saw a thief last night. Since nothing valuable was taken, no-one believed her except the next door neighbour who heard strange noises is the night. Both women were really distressed! Mission complete!

Mission: petrify people

Result: 2 people were shocked, scared and startled, whole neighbourhood was disturbed!
