HAPPPYYYY TURKEY GOBBLE GOBBLE GIVE THANKS AND PIG OUT DAYYY!

i read timmy’s xanga (yeah xanga! remember that?!) and he was like take a moment out of your busy life and let the people who mean a lot to you know how much you’re thankful for them.. so i shall do just that =D

lets see..first of all.. even though they arent going to read this… i am thankful for my parents! they give me the support i need, listen to me in time of crisis, give me practically anything i ask for and trust me so much..i feel horrible when i break their trust which is something i need to work on.. but besides that i love them to death and i cant imagine being apart from them for more than like 2 days (i dont know how you people who dorm do it! lol)

then of course, i’m thankful for my nabz! my jaans! neethi, even though youre in india. i can always count on you for your great advice and of course im here for you anytime! gia, im so glad i get to see you this semester since our schools are so close.. i love it when we gossip lol and benny..oh benny where are you? lol i still love you though

third, i am thankful for oh seven! even though most of us are separated because of college, when we do meet up, it just feels like old times and i hope that feeling never goes away..thanks for being the amazing group of friends i can have

fourth, bootlegged family and others from hs whom i cherish.. you guys have made high school bearable..i love our HUGE group outings.. i love the diversity..i love the different personalities and im thankful for it all

fifth.. my hunter-ta group! i’ve gotten close to a lot of you and college is bearable because of you.. its awesome to not have to make new friends since we were forced to be friends in the summer lol.. but i love all of your talents and im greatful to have people to hang out with and share similar dislikes about joojoobean between our horrible college schedule

and lastly..anyone else whos made an impact in my life..im greatful for knowing you lol

anyways.. as for updating my life..my aim hiatus is over and i can live without aim! thats so amazing..but i seriously think its a waste of time and i get so much work done without aim.. so if im rarely on, you’ll know why.. my chem exam and presentation went very well…as for my bio exam.. well i didnt get my results yet and i dont want to jinx it by sayin anything…

and now its finally turkey day vacation.. my lovely people came back from their colleges and we got to hang out yesterday! it was such fun day started out with 22 people..the day was filled with ice skating on a lake, pasta..mm pasta, m&m’s and bubble tea! hehe i love the city..

the weather was soo nice that the ice at bryant park was like melting.. i fell once because of stupid nadeem..but i was satisfied because he fell after and got all wet! haha..we skated for a good 2 hours or so and then went to olive garden for a late lunch.. we left the place when it was dark lol…we walked around lovely times square with all the lights and went to the m&m store.. then went to 71st and austin for bubble tea.. im broke after it all.. sigh lol but it was worth it! i have pics but they will be on facebook so i dont wanna post them here….

tonight.. i will be going to my cousins house in long island.. its going to be a giant turkey feast followed by curry of course lol.. and i made sweet potatoe pie! =]

anyways.. i should try to finish some work before i leave…if only i can write my essays for english with the same passion i have to update my blog! lol

leave me comments <3

Okay… i broke my little hiatus twice already…BUT both times were homework reasons! so technically i wasnt getting distracted by aim! aww..arent you proud?!? lol

alrite…big update… IT IS NOVEMBER 1ST! (well 1/2 an hour left at least!)

this means, theres like less than 8 weeks left of the year 2007! in about 3 weeks its thanksgiving! then 2 weeks after that the fall semester is OVER! 2 weeks after that its christmas(ICESKATING DAY!!!) and EID (again) and then a wholeeeee month of nothing! it is going to be my first LONG break since last summer! woot.. now i need a job or something to keep me busy!

i was going to take winter classes, but i’m a freshman, why rush so much to get out of college and go into the real world? its awesome how i dont even do much and i get checks mailed to my house.. i got a check for $400 in october and today i received my vallone scholarship of $625! i made like 1 grand by doing nothing but going to school…so amazing…

college is getting better.. besides the studying.. i think i am starting to manage my time better to study more and have my time to watch my TV shows! I also have time to go to clubs and hang out with friends… but lets just hope its good enough to improve in my classes and do better on my next exams!.. i have a chem exam tomorrow! (the 2nd–my nephew aamir’s bday!), i have a chem poster presentation next wednesday! (and its going to be baddd, because the teachers grading us are very harsh!) and then the 15th(my mommys bday!) i have another stupid biology exam.. i am starting to study for that.. and that is why i am on the break from aim..so i can STUDY! hehe!

but after bio exam.. i am soooooo taking a well needed break! i want to see american gangster!! i havent seen a movie in the theater since… the simpsons movie!! which was alll the way in july? wow..

okay.. any other updates.. ramadan ended, and eid passed.. i wore YELLOW! and i was so bright! lol.. i did eid for 3 days actually and it was veryy fun! thenn after eid, my cousin came from england! he brought the wedding dvds from the summer.. and as we were watching the hilarious home videos.. i started to get that post-london depression again! argh..but its gone now…lol.. i believe my cousin and his bride are going to come sometime this month.. my grandma came to ny from london also! i misssed her so much and shes going to stay with us until thanksgiving.. then shes going to north carolina…

umm what else.. i went to my first party at hunter with my friends… it was a desi club sponsored party.. lots of brown people.. lots of playing  and good music, no drinking or smoking so it was a decent party..lol..but i dont have pics and i got home late.. but omg.. this was actually the first time i told my parents the truth and they were like.. sure, go to the party! loll

halloween also passed! i didnt dress up or go trick or treating because i had lab and i didnt get home till really late.. butttt my cutie little arisha was a lamb! and her mom’s name is mary! so “mary had a little lamb!” SO CUTE! haha =]

umm alrite..i think thats a long enough post.. i actually have pics but i’m too lazy to upload them..so next time..and until then.. leave poor ol’ ellie some comments <3
