This and that and a little something !

2011 is just 4 days away..and it feels like this year has passed in a blink. Ahh..well I always feel like that when something is coming to an end :)

I haven’t been around in blogs ville this year. Made only 1 post without counting this... Feeling like a stranger in my own space. Well..I didn't stay away on purpose. I just didn't feel like writing anything… May be i was running out of ideas and topics.. May be I was too busy with my nose buried in ‘bailey and love’..Or maybe it was just me being too lazy.. *typical* ;)

With only 4 days left to say adieu to 2010, I felt like a post is long overdue here..I had no idea about what I was going to write. Nevertheless I just started typing randomly and then..I realized, all of a sudden, how much  I missed this place...All this time I thought I’ve lost my passion for writing..! I think I should put more effort into blogging..Or maybe I should  take care of my time management issues first..!

This Christmas had been really wet, cold and freezing as ever..But not even the heavy rains could dampen the festive spirit..Hope everyone enjoyed the Christmas..For me, the 1 week break for Christmas had been the highlight. :)

Well anyway..This year had been a really busy one..And, the next year is going to be even busier. Just finished the 2nd medicine appointment..and now so looking forward to start my 2nd surgical appointment…I know its going to be tough , hectic and everything..But still I’m sure I’ll enjoy it ! :)

That's enough for one post..Now I should probably get back to revising for the exams…

Cheers everyone..! Wishing you all a very bright 2011..!

Back to Blogsville..!

I’m back at last!! Just finished my phase 1 life sucking examinations. I did the exams very badly..Anyway, I hope to scrape at least a  ‘pass’ in every module.

Thanks to everyone who visited my blog even in my absence..even though I wasn't  visiting your blogs and Thanks a lot for allll your comments :) . Will reply to all of them soon. I’ll be catching up with all your posts from now on..

Have a nice Week end everyone! :)

A quick update..

I haven't been around here much lately. It’s now more than a month since I last posted anything here..I got lost among my studies..I let the works overpower me..I couldn't find any time to wander around here. But Its no excuse of course. I could have found time if I had wanted to. I’m so bad with time management so that I find 24 hours per day is not enough!

Well anyway..I’ve been feeling a bit low for a while . Don't know why exactly. Might be my workload, Homesick..or anything else.I’ve been so lousy that I didn’t read any blogs lately. I’ll catch up with everyone’s posts soon.

So here is a quick update of what I had been up to since my last post-

*I went home a week after my last post..and stayed there for a week! Yeyy!! Had a pretty good week there. I made some faluda and pudding! *Yeah I know it sounds a bit unreal*. But it is true.

My first time in kitchen- turned out pretty good. Only my mom had any trouble with it- She was worried that I might burn something . So she had been tottering around in kitchen while I was working there :P

Here are few pictures of the results of my 1st kitchen trial-

Apple Moss Pudding

*I’ve spilled the apple cream I made :( So I decorated it with real apples instead! :) *

Faluda

Same Faluda :P

Mango Flavored Faluda ;)

 

* Then , now I’m back in batti. Once again immersed in my studies. My phase 1 examinations are looming close (scheduled for July).

* I’ve got a tag to do. Courtesy- Saranya ;)

*I’ve cut my hair. Little above waist length. *Anyhoodle, it is growing back pretty quickly*

*I’ve managed to watch some movies – Outlander, City of Ember, Yes Man, Slumdog Millionaire, Pan’s Labyrinth, Beverly hills Chiwawa, Unborn, confessions of a shopaholic, and Marley and Me.

Apart from all this, life is getting on annoyingly usual..I’m pretty bored..

Have a Great week ahead everyone!

Have a Blessed Christmas..

Its Christmas already.. I came back from home yesterday morning.

I had a great time in Colombo. Did lots of Shopping, visited my friends and been to movies. Had great fun! Didn't study anything at all though :(

Yesterday hadn't been a good day for me altogether..Had a pretty tough day. Firstly, the train which I traveled collided with an elephant on the way! Luckily for us, the train didn't derail from the tract. But very unfortunately the elephant died in the spot. It was a huge one. We were in the middle of a forest line and we had to wait many hours before the railway people turned up , moved the elephant out of the tract and repaired the railings. The accident happened at 1am in the morning and we were able to move again only at 5.30 am - More than 4 hours delay..On top of this, I'm having a bad head cold and fever since y'day. Maybe its because I traveled in an A/C compartment on a very frosty night. I feel bit better today, and hope I'll be fine soon.

Well its Christmas today..I'm sure this day will be better than the one I left behind. Hope everyone is having a nice time.

These are some snaps I clicked away in a shopping mall l. I liked the decorations. (Pictures are not much clear as I took them with my mob :P Last one is blurred..I took it while on move. :) )

Merry Christmas Everyone..!

Joining in the Holiday spirit..!

Holidays at last..! Just 1 week though..:( *sigh*. Well still its holiday..!! :) I'll be able to get up anytime I want and do anything I want...at least for a few days..Yey! Isn't that wonderful..? *Whoops*

I know I shouldn't be feeling too relaxed as my exams are looming nearer and I'm supposed to be revising during these days..But..all the same- I couldn't help feeling elated and relaxed. Well, I'm not going to study anything today, at the very least :). I've spent the whole evening listening to my precious Harry potter Audio book (Currently 6th one - Half blood Prince) I'm mad about Harry and I've read the whole series more than 20 times..Nowadays I don't get much time to sit relaxing with HP and read..so I listen to the audio books instead, while I'm eating, driving, washing, etc..Audio books are good but still..there's nothing better than reading a book yourself..Yep, I prefer reading myself.

Christmas celebrations have begun already..Though the celebrations and preparations are bit quieter than usual. Or perhaps its just me imagining like that.

Another Christmas & another year ahead of us..I don't think the world has changed much except for the outbreak of few more wars and spread of poverty and sufferings..Even as you're reading this.. many people are suffering, killed or being deprived of food and shelter..in my mother land as well as in many parts of the world..There are many children around the world who doesn't even get the Christmas scent in the air.. As I think of it, I realize how very fortunate and blessed I am..If there's anything I wish for this Christmas, it is Peace and Love for everyone in the world.

I love this song by Late Singer Melanie Thornton -"Wonderful dream of Peace and love for everyone..." I love the lyrics and music.. One of my favorite Christmas season songs..

I wish this dream comes true someday..:)

I'm going home to Colombo tomorrow morning. I'm not going to stay there for long though. Planning to get back here on Wednesday and revise at least for 3 days.. Mom and Dad are not happy about me getting back early. They feel that I ought to stay till college reopens....Typical.. ;)

So Until I get back..BYE everyone..Have a great week end, Happy Holidays and Advanced Christmas wishes to alllll...:)
