time to let it go??

how can you have a friendship for 19 years and just let it go?
how can you expect a friendship of 2 girls who used to be inseparable to finally separate?
the answer is one word: CHANGE

people change, its inevitable. some change for better, some for worse. some change to cherish relationships, others change to grow a hatred for it.

me? i changed into thinking realistically. you can say you love me how you used to, but truth is, its not possible. if you only contact me for schoolwork and nothing else, how is that “loving me”? if i contact you with funny thoughts, how is not responding “loving me?” whats more real, implying you miss me? or actually saying it. if you dont show it, then it is NOT real. and since it is not real, it is necessary to move on…because clearly you have and you will never realize how much pain you have caused.

i had a dream that i died. your current “best friend” comforted you and told you, its okay, i will replace her.

she is the cause of your change. your change for the worse. i dont think things will EVER be the same.

good times

Posted on Monday 23 February 2009

Story made by Nithi, Imti, Aamir, Aman, Shoba, Moin and me


Once upon a time, Imti, Nithi and Aamir visited a haunted house.

Aamir peed in his pats before going 10 miles. Imti couldn’t breathe and Nithi cried for her sister.

Aamir smells like cow and talks like Cindy the cat.

Imti eats pimples.

Then, 3 years later, Nithi and Imti had a fight and Imti cut Nithi’s butt off.

Nithi then got extremely aggravated and decided to kick Imti out of the house and after that Imti became a poor begger.

Imti went to the white house and ghosts came to him.

The ghosts were very mean and looked like Norine and Aman.

We found a mirror and brought it to the ghost, it died and the glass broke.

Roses are red, violet is blue, Ellie is fat and so is Imti.

Ghost in the Mosque.

The ghost in the Mosque then disappeared and it left a little gift which was poop!

Then in the Mosque, Imti and Nithi started fighting again and then Nithi had to go poo, she had no butt, so she pooped out of her mouth. Now it was back to the fight, Nithi used the poop-a-swored on Imti’s leg. EWW!

And in the end, Aamir peed in his pants again.

The End!

anyways..that was from saturday..then sunday alishba, kristi and i chilled at elz house with some really good tea and pizza! todayy we made “confessions of college-shopoholics..starring kristi, kulsu, arshi, priyanka, nitol and yours truly…good times…wonder what tomorrow has in store…

i just know i cant wait till our desi thursdays! wooo!!

and ooh yea.. e&e one month yay! <3

silly stories

Posted on Saturday 22 November 2008

 SO, today was a very LONG day. Went to my first “teachers conference”! and it was kinda funny.. but pointless because everything was math related and not science related. But anyways, after the whole thing we just chilled at starbucks, made ridiculous stories while sipping coffee and tea. Good times.

 

 Here is our very ridiculous story:

 

One day S,A,K and E were sitting in starbucks.

They were tired and bored so they just sat there.

Then they decided to go to Africa.

In Africa, they opened a book store.

The book shop sold a lot of self-help books.

Which they really needed because they have serious problems.

So they thought about shopping.

They bought really cute bags!!!

They were all kinds of colors like red, blue and white.

Kind of like that American flag which waves in the sky.

And they saw the airplane going down.

But surprisingly they weren’t shocked.

They became shocked however, when this really hot guy came

Because he was staring at them and S said, “I’d tap that hot ass!”

And I said, “wow that gum really does a thing!”

It gave them both a real great high! Lol

And they lived happily ever after =]

 

 

anyways, cant wait till thanksgiving! but for now, happy early turkey day=]

life is spiraling downwards…

Posted on Thursday 30 October 2008

I have neglected my blog once again.. for over a month…anddd October is supposed to be my favorite month since IT IS MY BIRTHDAY MONTH…but unfortunately there was no rain on my birthday and so I will not have a lucky year…

Bad luck already showed.. I got my midterm exams back… bitchy advisors for TA…my friend’s think I need anger management… lots of family problems… I don’t think I will go on…

But on a bright note, I had a great birthday… I had a full day of classes from 10 am to 7 pm but my friends and I went to Tangra for a birthday dinner. It was pretty nice and I love everyone who came and then extra credit for those who gave me presents even though I told them not to…

Anyways, I started tutoring my neighbor again, I am starting to take driving lessons and I can’t wait for thanksgiving turkeyyy!

Nothing exciting in my life to talk about (not even a CRUSH!) and so I guess I will end here…
