hello!

long time.. but i don't know what to blog. i haven't been doing anything at all. basically bumming around a lot, getting really bored and really peeved by numerous things.

like last week we all wanted to go out for dinner, and my grandfather came up with some shit that his 70th birthday resolution was to eat only at home and at restaurants that are purely vegetarian. as in, don't even serve non-veg. that basically rules out ALL the restaurants at the fancy hotels, and almost every other restaurant except really shitty places. then my dad looked through the bangalore city guide, and googled, and found one place which was fairly nice and we went there and fortunately the food was good and it wasn't out of those shitty places. but basically if i want to try the place at leela palace, it'll just have to be my mom and brother or something. unless my dad's cousin returns from his business trip and decides to take us out. anyway my daddy's gone back, and tomorrow he's going for his private screening of shark tale because they used hp technology to make the movie, and he heads the division in charge of it or something like that. i just realised that last year there was a thing for charlie;s angels two - but it's not an animated film so it doesn't make sense. maybe for the special effects or something. hmm. anyway, i'm peeved cos i wanted to watch shark tale and it released the day before i left, and i watched princess diaries that day instead cos sophie doesn't like computer-animated films. which kinda rules out all new animated films. shark tale looked cute! the shark was vegetarian. i think my dad's got to make a little speech before the movie, so he'll probably use the shark being vegetarian thing, and how he's vegetarian as well or something. my dad makes good speeches. last time before ice age, he made a hilarious speech.

another peeve: the preoccupation of teenagers here with the opposite sex. the guys do nothign but ogle everything with breasts, or even if it's just female and flat it's ogleable. she's ogleable, i mean. and the girls bitch about the guys or tlak about their latest guys or whatever. they have plenty of guys/girls in their social circles so it can't be a deprived syndrome. it makes no sense. basically, the last few days i have realised i have really little to talk to them about. because i don't know most of the people they talk about. and they generally walk around with their eyes glued to their phones cos they're constantly messaging or on the phone - flirting, usually. and i just hang around and look bored and try not to run away too fast, and then they ask me why i look so bored and i'm just lost for words. frankly, freaky bangalore guy is the nicest to talk to. and i STILL haven't seen james again.

apparently james is from bahrain. it's so weird, there was this other reallly cute guy last time whose family lives in saudi arabia. he was christian too, but he had this weird name ajoy. very strange name. i sort of had a crush on him cos he was so cute and he's the sweetest guy of the whole lot, and according to freaky bangalore guy he wasn't sweet to everyone, and that therefore he liked me. but then he seemed to be nice to everyone. and anyway nothign materialised. plus like all the guys i've ever seriously liked, he was much older than me. and i haven't seen him around so far either. i feel starved for company. i miss everyone in singapore like HELL.

bahrain reminds me: my cousin was here for the past two days. he used ot live in bahrain too. hadn't seen him in a couple of years. he's about my brohter's age i think, and tons of fun. couple of nights ago he, my brother and i stayed up till almost 2am watching The Ring, really freaked ourselves out. and then last night my brother fell asleep but he and i stayed up and he told me bahraini ghost stories. apparently his house in bahrain had a ghost in the poolhouse. heh poolhouse.. reminds me of the oc. i miss ryan. he's so cute. and i've never visited any of my relatives while they lived in cool places. my grandparents have lived in albania (which is now some godforsaken european country racked by corruption or something) and bhutan (which is on a himalayan mountain). this cousin's lived in bahrain. my mom's cousin lives in dubai now, and he seems pretty settled there so i suppose at some point in my life i could actually go to a middle eastern country. and my mom lived in trinidad and tobago when she was... my age. and all i've done is live in singapore. booooring. story of my life.

i now have to go and watch koffee with karan. first ep, shah rukh and kajol!!!
