Quite a tiresome day today. Missed many classes (like maybe for 2 consecutive weeks) so am quite lost in the class. Have to go around asking my classmates. I don't like to attend class cos most of my friends opted for different papers and i opted for a different one where i don't have any one to talk to or do fun stuffs in the class. All of them are so into what the teacher is teaching that i hafta even pretend along otherwise i'll be the odd one. Its not like they are bad or something but its just that we have different tastes and.............i donno lets jus say i miss my friends terribly.
Outside there is a party or something and the music that they are playing?, are like really bad. M gonna sue the DJ for making me almost puke with the kinds of songs that he's playing (and ya his screams in between the songs are really sending chills down my spine) so i'm hearing songs (my headphone's kinda hurting my ear) at the fullest volume. But i do wish they stop playing "summer of 69 (bryan adams)" and "in the end(linkin park)" cos dats like really so old (no offense to the artists just the DJ's). I guess if i don't get a job i'll open up a teaching center for them.
One good thing that happened today was that one of my friend gave treat cos she got money from working in a fair so my stomach's quite bulging (i love chicken/beef sizzler) now and i can hardly breath. Thought i'll watch movie but i didn't (got a dvd from my friend who got from our teacher but as u know teachers' selection of movies and ours are quite different..........). Dinner bell has already rung. Guess i'll miss it. But i gotta meet my friends and update myself with their stories. Everyday is an interesting day and we always have something to tell each other. lol!

2day's earthquake!
Today morning, i think it was around 5 when the earthquake occured and i wasn't asleep at that time (i was listening to songs) when the dogs started barking and then there was this weird sound followed by shakes. First i thought something was wrong with my headphone but then the lights went out and then i realized what was happening. The first thing that came across my mind was that i didn't wanna die at this young age (though my wrinkles are starting to show) and i just dashed out of my room without slippers. Then i thought of my laptop, mobile and money so i ran back again and locked the room (though i didn't see how that could save my stuffs inside). lol!
I called out my balcony mate's name and she was quite unaware of the whole thing. By then people had started coming out and some girls even started to cry. I thought i'll cry too but then my tears weren't coming out so i just called my friends who stays in B block (i stay in D block) and told them to come down. We were initially really scared but after the fears sunk we stared joking about it. I didn't feel like going to my room so i slept in my friends room and missed my class (my excuse was that i was so scared that my mind needs a proper sleep and that i wouldn't be able to focus what the teacher was saying).
Well everything's back to normal. I wonder whether it''ll happen again tonight. Some of the girls are saying that it might happen again( you know how girls are, everytime wanting something to talk about, esp. yesterday night's event had kept most of the girls awake talking for hours about that 1minute quake). Gonna sleep in my friends room tonight (we've bought waiwai to eat later). I'm still in my room now writing this. They'll start giving miss calls and i''ll have to go. They're scaring me that D block is the oldest one amongst the 3 blocks so i'm sleeping in B block in case it happens again and if it happens again this time i'll have someone to scream and run with me.

Update!
Its been quite a long time that i'm writing again. Winter's come and i seriously hate waking up in the morning for classes (though i rarely go i still like to complain ha ha ha).
Attended an advent christmas celebration and i really enjoyed myself (not to forget the meat). On one hand i'm glad christmas is near while on the other hand i can't seem to get out from my bed which makes it worse in that i have lots of pending work. Only if it snows here i wouldn't complain.lol!
It was funny how people had different versions about christmas. One of the guy had videotaped people giving their views on christmas. Most of them said that it was about gifts exchange, cakes, pastries and the likes and thank god atleast one of the sardarji guy said that it was about the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Well if that guy was there videotaping me and asking for my views i wouldn't have given an answer different from those people. A good reminder for all of us i think, esp. for the christians.
Tomorrow's monday again, yet another boring class lectures, xeroxing materials (at the end of the year we have lotsa stuffs to read and limited time to go through them so its of no use but there is a thing called "mental satisfaction").
Well its not my bedtime, yet I gotta go off to sleep because am kinda feeling sleepy now (thanx to the heater) and I gotta submit one of my assignment tomorrow. Tuesday i'm supposed to come up with 3 personal contacts of companies for our final placement(seniors) but so far i haven't had so much luck to even get one. Whatever! Lets see, and if am not able to get one i might bade farewell to "placement cell" and not get placed after my MA (i might as well be lucky if i get to pass the exam). I believe in destiny and wherever she places me it won't be my fault but hers (if i land up in real bad situation i.e.). Good defence mechanism i must say.lol!

Remembrance!!
I wasn't intending to publish this in my blog but then I thought maybe because of my story someone would be blessed by reading it and also the fact that Jesus takes care of us every day wherever we are.
It happened 2 years ago when i went out for shopping with mom and my sister. My mom had come to visit me and sis in our university and stayed in my sis hostel. We thought we'll go for shopping in the evening and as we were about to leave the hostel mom wanted us to pray. So we prayed to God to take care of us for the rest of the evening.We were having a nice time and sometime later i wanted to have an ice cream. I usually frequent this particular ice cream parlor and as i was about to reach there mom suddenly had a change of heart and wanted us to go back.
2 minutes away from that shop and we heard a big blast. I saw a big ring of smoke in the sky. At that time we weren't aware that it was a bomb planted by the terrorists. There were some people whose face were covered with blood. Some thought that it was a cylinder blast. Had people known that it was a bomb blast there would have been a stampede and we might have been lost/injured. Thankfully we got back home safely though i was quite worried for one lady who were asking the whereabouts of her friend. I still don't know what happened to her friend.When we came back my friend called us up and informed us about the blast. After hearing that we were so scared and at same time thankful to god for bringing us to safety.
The next morning when we woke up we saw the pictures of the blasts and i was horrified to see that it was the same ice cream parlor that i was about to go. Had i disobeyed my mom i wouldn't be here right now writing this.. Considering the fact that i'm a kind of a rebellious person and kind of stubborn i was surprised at how i readily agreed not to eat ice cream that day. That one act of obedience was what kept me alive; not only mine but my mom and sis's life as well.Indeed god's hand is never short enough. He's always there and am glad we prayed that day before we left.
As days passed i took granted of the fact that i was minutes away from death and never even testified about this incident. But today out of the blue i remembered the incident because it was during this month that it happened. I probably would never be able to forget this incident and wish never to so that it may serve as a constant reminder of how much god loved His children and that He's willing to do anything for us only if we lean on Him.
