The Last Sight.

Every step

I willingly took

led me to a new beginning.

The young black eyes met

Lack of fear

full of hope.

A silver lining

the day after tomorrow

I saw in his eyes.

Eight steps away,

the garroter stood,

ready to call the day off.

I took a glimpse

at faces with wrinkles

of suffer and death.

Adieu people,

I told them silently.

The Light shall come

when my sight goes Dark.

Another Chance.

It is easy to forget where you came from. It is easy to forget the purpose you have in your life.

Still breathing.

You blow me away
Fallen from the tip
You left me dry
  to be crushed here and there
Yet, you fail.
I’m still breathing.
I crack from your flame
I erode from your acid
You feed on my company
  and left me alone and dusty
Yet, you fail.
I’m still breathing.
Blooming flowers dry out soon
Colourful rainbow fade too quick
Though short-lived, they bring smile
Though I’m broken, I carry hope.
I’m still breathing.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Once and for all.

It’s been a very LONGGGG time! How was the song I posted on the blog? Hope you like it. Anyways, I have lotsa things to tell you, but I really think I should finish what I have started. Do you wonder what it is? Yes!! The 30-Day Picture Challenge thingy! 30 days have become 90 days now. Lol. Now you know my procrastinating talent. Well, I think I’m gonna cram em all in one post. [For your information, this is a procrastinated blog post by a week. ]
20 A picture of somewhere you'd love to travel

A walk along the Great Wall of China

21 A picture of something you wish you could forget

I don’t think that will ever happen.

I love you.

I hate to say that I love you
I hate to say that I miss you
I hate to say that I need you by my side
I hate to say that I care for you
I hate to say that I even cry for you
I hate to say that I wanna be everything in your life
Why couldn’t you see
Why couldn’t you just sense
Why couldn’t you know that all I wanna say is
Boy, I really know that there’s
No another day without you
Now that you have a lil’ of my soul
I love you.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 19

A picture and a letter.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 18

I’ve decided to continue the 30 Day Photo Challenge after a long time. Well, today I have to post a picture of my biggest insecurity. When I think about it really hard, there’s one thing that I am scared of the most: being alone. Although I enjoy being alone most of the time, deep down inside my heart I’m scared that I’ll lose everything if I stayed alone for a long time. For now, I am just glad that I have my family and friends to keep me company.

Refresh.

In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve given a rest for the 30 day picture challenge for a while now. I had been, and still am busy settling down in Toronto, Canada. Plus, I haven’t move into my residence yet, so the internet connection’s quite unstable. The inability to go online frequently has forced me to explore Downtown Toronto with friends as much as possible. The first day in Toronto was the most unexpected day so far: I walked for eight hours continuously in the city! Eaton Centre, China Town, CN Tower, and so much more! I took many photos along the way, but I haven’t been taking photos ever since. I got lazed down. Anyway, I’ve had fun strolling around the streets of Toronto. What I’ve learned from walking around here is that we can hardly get lost here. Hats off to TTC for amazing traffic system which favours pedestrians. Now, I should really tune down up for the F!rosh week! I have looked up what that means in a dictionary, and it is clearly stated FUN! So, I’m all hyped up for it. Not to forget, I’m also looking forward to finally being able to move into my residence, the mysterious Loretto College! Seriously, I couldn’t find a thing abut that place in the internet. But, so far I find the Dean, Assistant Dean and the Security Guard to be really nice people. It’s really hard to summarize everything in just one blog post, but I’m so lazy to write another one. Ah, well. I’ll write more when I’m in the mood. Haha. Btw, not like there’s no tonnes of pictures of Toronto in the web, but I’d love to add some photos to the collection. That’ would be soon enough, when the internet’s stable. Then, I’d continue the photo challenge. Till then, bubye! Muaxx

p.s I miss my mom’s cooking so much!

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 17

I never knew what changes it would mean when I saw the offer on the web on 21st of May last year. A year in Taylor’s College, followed by four years of engineering in one of the universities in Canada was beyond my imagination at that point of time. My life kicked off for a transformation after that, and believe me, life has been better than ever for me. I’ve met many people, done things I never thought I can do, experienced fun like I never did before, and practically have relived my life! Now, I wait for another big change in my life – I am going to Canada to study engineering! All of this is happening because of the scholarship I got from the Public Service Department (JPA). It has made a huge impact on my life recently. Thank you, JPA. Thank you, people of Malaysia.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 16

A picture of someone who inspires me. My dad.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 15

Today, I tried something on http://brass612.tripod.com/cgi-bin/things.html. The website has a list of 100 things to do before I die. As I went through the list, I realised that I’ve only done 14 things out of the list! This is what I got:

Get cracking. You've got a lot to experience.

I still have a long way to go. I have many things that I wanna do before I die, I couldn’t even choose the ultimate one! Maybe…


I wanna visit Taj Mahal. And I don’t want to visit it alone.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 14

What a day! I spent four hours sitting on a chair while four women took their turns to play with my wavy- more towards curly hair. Alas! Before I knew it, my hair is sleek and straight! A new transformation in my life! Speaking of life, today I’m supposed to post a picture of someone I could never imagine my life without. The perfect candidates for this task are my parents, but they’re already chosen. So, I’m gonna post the runner-ups – yes, runner-upS. They are my sisters and cousins. All of them are important to me, and I can never imagine what fun family would be without them.

From left: Geetha, Mohitha, Shree, Karthiga, Gopee (the dude at the back), Kalidasan, Devi (the cute girl in the arms of the previous dude), Kumeren, and me! Warning! The photo is incomplete.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 13

A picture of your favorite band or artist.

Band or artist?

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 12

Phew! What a busy day! Today, my cousin taught me how to format my laptop (hihi.. thanks kumi! <3 you! ). It's pretty simple, but I'm just tired of installing back all the softwares, including Adobe Photoshop. Speaking about Photoshop, today's photo is is supposed to be about something that I like. Well, that's pretty simple. After a loooooooooooooooooong day in front of my dearest lappie, I think I deserve vanilla ice cream. :P

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 11

This is so easy.
Something that I hate the most. No offense.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 10

If you ask me, life is all about choices. You get to choose what you want to do. Most of the time, I choose insanity. It won’t make sense, but that’s what I’ll end up doing. So, you can guess that I do the most ****** (whatever that means ) up things with almost anyone, as long as that person is sporting. I even act crazy alone. That is why I cannot simply choose a person for today’s challenge. Therefore, I choose the place, instead of person, I do the most ****** up things.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 9

I am at my cousin's house now. Haha. So, today I'm supposed to post a picture of the person who has gotten me through the most. I am proud to say that I am blessed with many people whom i can share my joy and hardships with. So, I couldn't think of a specific person that suits this picture the most. All my family, friends, teachers and even strangers have helped me to get through hard times in my life. So, I decided to post a general picture of people.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 8

My days in Canadian Pre-University has been nothing but fun. I had a totally new learning experience there. I especially adore all my lecturers in CPU because they are very friendly and funny. They come up with sudden, crazed up things at the most unexpected moments. One of them is Mr Rose, who comes up with the best dress-up ideas. He has dressed up as a nerd, soccer player, wolverine, scuba diver and many more. I could never stop laughing in his class whenever he dresses up. Here is a picture of him dressing up as a scuba-diver.

A picture that makes me laugh.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 7

I know this is really late, but I’ve been busy the whole day. So, today I’m supposed to post a picture of my most treasured item. For me, all things are treasures. I like to collect gifts and souvenirs throughout my life. When I’m bored or if I miss someone, I’ll just go through those souvenirs to recall sweet memories. Among all my treasured items, the thing that I value the most is my photo album. Nothing can talk to my brain as picture does, and it’s certainly the best way for me to reminisce. Nowadays, it has been so easy for me to look at pictures when I feel like doing it since I can have photos in my mobile phone, but the traditional way of having photos in photo album is a must for me. So, here it is. My most treasured thing.

the hat is there for decoration purpose.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 6

Who knew this small child will become the first Indian-American woman to go into space? Her passion to fly led her to become a NASA astronaut. At her age, she never knew that she was going to be an aeronautical engineer. She never knew that she will explore the outer space. She will always be a girl that I admire. Kalpana Chawla, a person I’d love to trade places with for a day.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 5

Today’s challenge was a hard one for me. I have to post a picture of my favourite memory. I couldn’t find the right memory till just now. I was scanning through my photo albums three or four times to recall which memory was the best among the best. Should I choose an old memory or a new one? Family or friends? Local or international? Then, one of my college best friend called. Both of us talked for slightly more than 40 minutes! At that moment, I knew the perfect memory for now. Not that other memories are not my favourite, but at that moment, this memory was in my mind all the time. So, here it is! Picture number 5!

My friends in college and I have done a lot of crazy stuffs. One of it was walking 5.9 km with my friend, Vinotheni. Both of us walked back from Taylor’s University Lakeside Campus to Casa Subang. We even went to a night market on the way that day. It was so fun to chit chat and snap pictures along the way. That day was an unforgettable memory for me, and it is certainly one of my favourite memory. So this is it. Day 5.
Signing off,
Deepa.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 4

Deepavali. I love that day because it has my name. Every year has been a blast. For me, it’s a day of family reunion and appreciation. Last year, I had the most amazing Deepavali celebration ever. It’s partially amazing because I won’t be able to celebrate the festival with my family for another four years. Last year’s celebration was different because my cousins and I had a barbeque party at night. We had a fun time eating the barbequed chicken, dancing crazily for songs, talking with uncles and aunties and finally the firecrackers! I’ve had many memorable nights so far, but that night is what I will remember when it comes to Deepavali for the next four years. Here’s a collage of pictures of that night: A picture of my favourite night.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 3

I am a television addict. I can watch television for 48 hours continuously, given there is food within reach. So, when it comes to choosing my favourite television show, I am in dilemma. How can I choose the best among the best? Glee, Amazing Race, Gossip Girl, CSI, House, The Biggest Loser, Chuck, Hannah Montana – The Series, Wipeout, Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles, That’s So Raven, How I Met Your Mother, and the list goes on and on. But, all this while, only one television show has been ringing in my head. TEEN TITANS. However old I grow, I would not forget this cartoon show. Even now, I can watch the series again and again even though I have watched it for thousand times. Today, I am supposed to post a picture of a cast from my favourite television show. I decided to post the picture of my all-time favourite cast from my all-time favourite television show. Presenting Raven, a gothic girl with complex personality.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 2

 

Hey everyone! Today’s day 2! I’m supposed to post a picture of myself and the person I have been closest with the longest. Well, that’s a simple one. I know who I have been the closest with for the past 19 years. But, the only problem here is I couldn’t seem to be able to find a picture of all three of us together. I have to skim through my photo albums before I finally found one. This picture was taken last year during the semester break. These two persons have always been there in my life, either to save me from whatever big mistake I have done or to just have some fun. My life has been moulded by them, and I think that’s the reason why I am still able to hold on to myself. Thanks Manogaran and Tamilkodi for all the things you have done for me. You are the best parents that I can ever ask for.

With love,
Deepa.

30-Day Facebook Challenge: Day 1

Hey! Yesterday I was googling on fun stuffs that you can do in Facebook when I hit this link: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_30-day_Facebook_picture_challenge. Well, the 30-Day Facebook Challenge is really interesting that I figured that I have to try it! So here it is. The first day challenge. A picture of myself with 10 facts about me. I really had a hard time coming up with 10 things about myself, but well, here it is.

It’s a picture of me. Now, 10 things about me:
1. I have buried a dead snake before with my sisters.
2. I made my very first scrambled egg in microwave oven when I was 18+.
3. I prefer baking to cooking.

Sri Lanka's Killing Fields by Channel 4 [Full video]

Today, my cousin brother asked me to watch this video. When I watched it, I just couldn't believe how brutal humans can be and how cheap humans' lives are to these people. The Sri Lankans say that they have won the war, but the truth is everyone loses in this war. They lose their dignity, humanity, and most of all, lives of innocent people. May God bless all the souls that have died in this war and justice to be served to those who deserve it.

First half.

A buzzing sound in my head. Ticking clock on the wall points its arms towards twelve. I looked away from the clock and realised that I am still laying down on the floor, eyes glued back to the colourful screen of Dell Inspiron. My fingers found their place on the keyboard and typed out the strings of letters floating away from my  mind. I was just reading through my blog just now, and I realised that I have a way long journey ahead of me to self-maturation. I have come this far in my life, and yet I am more childish than my younger sister. How shameful is that? I am so lazy to move my butt off the floor, but I guess I have to move it someday and keep moving forward. The first half of the year is way past than over, and it has been better than the best! I have explored the world of video editing as I always wanted to, enhanced my skills in shopping (now I can shop for A BILLION DOLLAR!), braced myself for food I would never have

How to rot during holidays?

“Every day is a new day!” Well, in my case, I’d say “every day is a bored day”. I’m practically rotting in front of my laptop, not knowing what to do. Since I’m becoming better and better in rotting, I decided to give some tips to you on how to rot during holidays. So here the list goes:-
1. Think about starting to blog. Even though you don’t know what to post, you’ll figure something out, just like me.
2. Update your laptop’s music library. You don’t want to listen to the same, old songs everyday, do you?

Scribble

Hey there! I've been lazing in my house for a week or two now. It has never been SO boring till now! Well, I have been watching Gossip Girl for a few days, and I have to say that the series is so damn ADDICTIVE! I have not been writing for a while now, so I just want to scribble something on the blog before I tune back to GG. So, bye!

Fridays = Awes0me s0ngs!!!!!

Hey! There's been lots of songs about Friday lately! I like Fridays (although it's not my favourite! ) I think these guys and girls have something more than just 'like' towards Friday. So here are a few Friday songs! Enjoy! :D

1. Katy Perry - Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)
-So far the best in my list! It's hilarious yet awesome!

This End of the Road.

Here I am,

on this end of the road.

Turning back,

I see wrong turns

leading to

this end of the road.

Here I am,

with glassy eyes.

Nothing else but

wrong turns in my mind.

How did I end up on

this end of the road?

Here I am,

looking beyond the end.

The path too rough

with stones and sticks.

How I fear to leave

this end of the road?

Here I am,

too afraid to let go

everything I have

for a new start.

Too afraid to step out of

this end of the road.

Here I am,

fooling myself.

False beliefs misting my mind;

false hopes lifting my spirit

though I knew I would be broken on

this end of the road.

Here I am,

not knowing how,

but knowing it by heart

that I need to move on,

leaving behind

this end of the road.

Deepa - All About Him feat Phairyn & Shankary

Hey, guys! Sorry for the loooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnng break!!! I haven't have time (and idea) to post many many many post in this blog! :P haha.. By the way, my friends and I have done some videos for you guys to watch. I'll be sharing the links here in this blog, so make sure you guys check it out! :D Here's the first one (Not really. We have done other videos before this). It's a trailer for the upcoming Auburn All About Him - Casa version. Watch this and like it if you want more! :)

Till next time.

The most beautiful advice.

Today, I received the most beautiful advice ever in my e-mail. It’s quite long, but it’s very meaningful. Have a look and give it some thought!
An Angel says, 'Never borrow from the future.. If you worry about what may happen tomorrow and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain. Even if it does happen, you have to worry twice.'

1.. Pray
2. Go to bed on time.
3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.
4. Say No to projects that won't fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise your mental health.

A small poem

It is just another random crap edition with different title that I‘ve come up with. It won’t make any sense, but I really wanted to post it up here. This poem is inspired by and dedicated to my best buddy. This poem may seem to be incomplete, so I hope you will bear with it.

Play in the playground like you're young
Hunt for the hidden treasure like a pirate
Unpack the wilderness contained in the heart
Make each day a magical adventure
Plop plop plop throw the stone into pond
Honk honk honk honk the horn at the blond
Apple tree is standing nearby
In a minute lets go on top of tree high
Roll your eyes and dare to say no
Yet you will see me go all crazy
Not alone but with my buddy! =)

Lazy Blogger

strewth! I just got hit on the head and recalled that I have not updated this since they invented sliced bread... You would not believe that I'd been abducted by aliens. I hope you still love me!.

I am overwhelmed with discovering time doesn't stand still, watching the grass grow, just generally being a worry to my psychologist, my day drifts aimlessly from crawling out of bed at 6.30 to sun down and beyond. I am not growing up. but who cares.

I declare solemnly I will update you with my nefarious activities as soon as I get a chance. You have my word! What do you mean you don't believe me?.

p.s. This post is generated from http://www.aussiebloggers.com.au/blogpost.html.

Bubye! Till next time! =)

The link between man and god.

This is an interesting e-mail that I’ve got from someone. Please read it. I’m sure it will open up your mind.
An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God, The Almighty. He asks one of his new students to stand and.....
Prof: So you believe in God?
Student: Absolutely, sir.
Prof: Is God good?
Student: Sure.
Prof: Is God all-powerful?

I have a religion.

It has been a long time since the last post. Phew, what a hectic life it has been! Exams, assignments, hang-outs, and so much more! My apologies for not blogging for a while.
Well, I don’t know why, but religion has been a recurring question inside myself. I would not say that I’m very religious. In fact, I don’t know most of the things about my religion itself! How this question has come across my mind? I have to admit that I’ve been thinking about it for a while. Study about religions in Moral class, a novel that I read for my English class, and conversations I had with my friends had made me to give a thought about religions.
I know what I believe in. I believe in light. I believe in hope. I believe in love. I see the God in the children’s smile. I see the divinity in the helping hands. I see the sacred holiness in the beauty of the nature. I always wonder how life and nature are intertwined with one another. It is the completeness that life and nature provide that I believe in.

NOT a robot.

For your information, I am NOT a robot. Thanks for noticing that.

Chinese New Year Break!

 
[A delayed post. Supposed to have posted on 07th February 2011]
Arggh!! I couldn’t sleep. Anyway, I had a great time with cousins during this break. Totally loving it! Do you want to ‘see’ it? Well, here are some pictures.
