Earlier this week, I wrote a blog, about how I was being compared to a character from a tamil movie that was quite childish and silly all the time (watch Santosh Subramaniam, you'll know what I'm talking about). I titled the post 'stupid, retarded me'.

I wasn't expecting anyone to comment on it, as it was just random ramblings that were playing on my mind that day. However, today I checked and saw that someone had left a comment which very strongly disagreed with my choice of the word, retarded. It was a shock to me to read the comment, which stated that using the word 'retarded' was disgraceful and demeaning to those whom are actually mentally challenged. She also said that by using this word so casually, I had not realised that I may have hurt those who are dealing with this, as well as families that have mentally challenged family members.

It was like a slap on the face, and I must thank this person for leaving the comment for me. I've chosen to leave the comment on the post, now titled 'Something about myself'. This has taught me that the choice of words, no matter how trivial the matter, has to be chosen with care and caution.

Rest assured I meant no disgrace or offense to anyone. I'll be more careful from now on.

Githa akka is getting married!!! That's her, and my new macha, Senthil anne :) So handsome my brother-in-law. I think this photo is sooo cute la. haiz. Well...finally, that big day is just about two weeks away now. After Sheena akka's wedding two years ago, this is the next big event in the family, and I have to say I am pretty excited. I just LLOOOVEE weddings :D

Senthil anne is one heck of a fun guy to be around, and I love him to bits and pieces. The both of them together are just one beautiful package by itself. Its a pity they're moving back to Perth, which means I won't be able to see alot of them. Haiz. Well hopefully they make enough money to be able to come home often enough.

Githa akka I've known all my LIFE. And yes, she is my big akka that I love so much, and I'm so happy for because she's finally found that one person for her. I remember dancing around with her and Gowri akka when I was younger, and all those Shah Rukh movies we used to go for, memories from Klang...sigh. We grow up fast.

I love the dress akka's wearing here, and the setting is just perfect :) I wish you both the best in Life, and may Swami shower His blessings on you always and forever!

One thing I'm going to do before the both of you head back..take loads of pictures, and bully Senthil anne a little. Oh yea..and you too.hehe.

This is the paternal family, taken last year during akka and anne's registration. I love this picture :)

So now its just Gowri akka la..its okay akka, I'll come visit you sometimes. ;)

That title sounds like something my sister ashi would come up with.pfft.

So anyway, yup back to blog after what seems like eternity. I'd say that there really wasn't much to write about, or speak about. Not that there's anything special I want to say now. However, I did do some massive thinking today (oooh sounds all so serious), and I've come to the conclusion that I am, not all that I think I am.

Let me explain.

First of all, I'd like to talk about this particular tamil movie that was showing in theaters some time back, it's called Santosh Subramaniam. The character of the female lead in this movie is one that is extremely childish, annoying, cute in the beginning but then just gets on your nerves later, stupid, and amazingly ignorant of everything around her. There's this look of innocence, that one can mistake of stupidity that's plastered on her face 24/7. Hats off to the actress for performing the role so well. Requires a lot of patience and hard work.

Basically she was a ditz.

Not long after that film, people started calling me by her name. First I thought it was just because we had the same hairstyle. And no, I was not amused at being called Ha Ha..Hasini. What did I look like, an 18 year old ditz???

Then I realised...I did actually have some of that ditzy characteristics. It shocked me out of my own brains! I don't skip on the road, and talk to random people and all...but I do slip into that childish character sometimes, and I do eat random food as long as its FOOD, I do wear all those gypsy skirts and tops that she does, and I do laugh a lot...

It was the dawn of a new beginning after that. Did I really look that ditzy?

Anyway...well..that was my first indication of being a HASINI.In some way. And it wasn't any help either that most of my guy friends thought Hasini was actually cute. I for one, thought she was very, very annoying.

And then...the things that I've been doing without thinking! Oh God...sigh. I wonder sometimes, am I really 23? Because it doesn't seem like it at all. Ive been watching movies and wasting time on the internet, and studying at ungodly hours. By the way, exams are in two weeks, after which I will be officially done with university.

This post isn't meant to be thought provoking, or interesting in anyway. Just randoms.

Did I mention I was in Terengganu for the weekend? The Ma'Daerah Turtle Sanctuary, and amazing place really. It was part of the Tropical Aquatic Biology (SCM3011) unit Im doing this semester. We spent the weekend with turtles, on a beach. So much fun really. We learnt a lot, made new friendships that will last, and had a relaxing weekend. Pictures are up on facebook, so have a look whenever.

My best friend Deeban is coming back next week for a break, and I'm looking forward to seeing him. Haven't seen that donkey in a while, and there's so much to catch up on, not to mention the food spree we have been planning since last month. Deebs had a little accident yesterday in his room, which resulted in some stitches on his forehead. I hope and pray he's doing okay, because it just worries the crap out of me. Why do I love this boy so much? I don't know. I just do. He's just that one boy who gets me..a girl's best friend ;)

No more fooling around for me. Time to work my ass off. This post sounds eerily, almost annoyingly similar to my sister's ramblings. Oh God.

Still.Sometimes the ashwini in me just surfaces.
