Noodles and tea.

I have been trying to get my tea and noodles right for more than a week now. After some experimenting, I realised that it's not my method that's going wrong, but it's the tea and the noodles I don't favour. The tea is just blant and tastes almost like water no matter which proportion of water, milk and sugar I add. Meanwhile, the noodles has this strong smell of egg which I hate (should've realised that when my friends said that it smelled good when it didn't for me last week =.= ). I'll at least try to finish up the tea, but for the noodles: "Sayonara! You are going into the rubbish bin".

To shop or not to shop?

Lately, I have the urge of stocking up my room with furniture and apparels. Boots, jackets, cabinet, bed, etc. I'll be planning to go and buy these stuff during every first lecture. Sadly, as the day advances, that urge of buying stuffs is slowly replaced by the sense of unworthiness due to extreme lag in studies. Oh well, dear shopping urge, you gotta wait for a very looooooong time indeed.

The Tale of My Boring Self

A few things my mom told me unconsciously made me realise how much I've been missing out lately. 

She told me that she was checking Facebook to see if I have uploaded any photos by any chance. I realised that I take less pictures this year compared to last year. That might be probably because it's my second year in Canada, and I'm not so excited as I used to be anymore. Also, there hasn't been many photo-taking opportunity for me lately. I barely go out for a random walk nowadays, and this year I have less opportunity to hang out with people. So, I guess naturally I won't have many (if not any) photos to be uploaded. 

Secondly, she was talking about Deepavali preparation for this year, when I asked her when is Deepavali. She was kind of shocked and asked me, "Deepa! It's your day! How could you not know?". Oh well, I guess ever since I came to Canada, I stopped getting excited about those annual festivals, including Deepavali. After all, what are festivals without family?

Then, she asked me whether there's any Tamil movie showing in cinemas here, in Toronto. I told her that she's asking the wrong person. I never kept myself updated with any entertainment news. I think the last time I watched a Tamil movie in theatre was more than a year ago. Not only Kollywood, but I dont even know what's going on in Hollywood. I even stopped watching television shows for a long time now.

Oh well. I guess I'm appearing more and more boring to myself as I age. Hopefully I won't have a hard(er) time to fit in with my Malaysian friends and family the next time I go back to Malaysia.
