Rupster says "About October 2010"

A busy month it has been. Busy with college and submissions of assignment. For some weird reason, this semester all the assignments were due towards the end of the semester. So there was definitely lots of rush. Plus, most of it has been group work. Rupster has always looked forwards to group work but this time it all turned out to be a disaster! Yes TOTAL disaster! Hated it to the max! 5 peoples work being done by 2 people is never a easy task! On top of that only finding out it was not done just the night before and the morning of submission was a real KILLER!

Rupster has always had the policy of no matter how last minute the work is being done, it has to be done and finished the night before the submission date. Or else Rupster would be having nightmares all throughout the night! This time, it was totally the opposite. It was just finished in time before the submission time at 4pm. This was how bad things got! And they just never bothered to offer any help in any form! Grrrr

Other than college, October has also been a very testing month in term of emotions! Only God knows why. Its been really hard to go through all of these! Mind diverting has only been the way out of it. So there enters the world of Television, Facebook and YouTube! Not that it does not help at all but it does. If any of these don't help than its time to turn to games!

Outings still is there. Mostly all last minute plannings so there is hardly any time to look-forward to something exciting. But the last minute rush is equally exciting too. Classes are all finished and done for the semester! Now its time mug the books and notes for the semester for the next 2 weeks. Nerding time! But before that its Deepavali time.

Don't know how is it going to be this year. After 22 years of our usual routine, this year onwards its going to be very different without grandma being around. This year would be a very low-key because there is no celebration as a mark of respect of her death. So let's see what is install for Deepavli this year. It's only after Deepavali that major studying spree starts!

See you in NOVEMBER!

Rupster says " About Everything is Ending"

A tough semester it has been! Just cant wait for this semester to end! With all the inappropriate hours of traveling, jam-packed trains, delayed train, last minute rush of assignment by group members, and all sorts of other things!

Working in a group can be fun but that is only when you know your team members well enough. Though we start late, everyone is done by the time promised. But how if you hardly know them? Well this time it really hit Rupster hard! At the begining they were doing fine, but as time went on, they started giving all sorts of excuses! Sigh...Never went through this situation all through a student life! This was the worst!

2 people ended up doing of 3 people...name sake there were 5 names in the cover sheet! At times, thinking of it, it is just not fair but at the end of the day we want the marks too! So we just cant afford to give but to do their part of the work as well!

The worst part is compiling the entire thing hours before submission date! Rupster hates that the most and never does that at all! No matter how late Rupster starts the work given latest it is finished should be the night before. Before going to be bed, let it be what ever time! Hate going to bed knowing something is not done is due the next day!

Well, maybe that's how life is! What is life without compromising! So we got to give and take to have a pleasant flight ahead of us!

Rupster says "About 10.10.10"

10/10/10 was a date chosen by us to meet up! We last had the entire group together was way back in school which was about 6 years ago. Not that we totally lost contact. We did meet up in between but it was never complete. Even this is is not complete. 1 more important member could not make it...

 After much of planning and decisions, we finally choose Mid Valley to meet up since it was the central point for all of us to get there. There was a slight delay in the timing, so by the time we reached there was already lunch time. Being it a Sunday and the place being Mid Valley, it would not easy to find a spot to eat.

 Since we decided Pizza Hut, we had to wait for about 10 minutes before we could get our seats! But God knows how fast time moved on as soon as we sat on the seat! So much stories and it was day filled lots and lots of laughter!

 Many of us have changed. But the "kiddos" in us have yet to change! We still bully each other. And the person who always gets bullies is still the very same person since we were in our 1st year if high school!

 We had lots to catch up and lots to patch back among ourselves. Over food, we laughed and talked all the way not realising time has been really passing by fast. We even did not realise that there was someone watching us! Yes! It felt like we were stalked by this one particular waiter there!

 Feeling the discomfort of being watched we decided to walk around the mall, get some more food to munch on. Through that journey, we took tonnes of pictures!

 Only than did we realise, we only had 1 picture of all of us when we were in school..So we took more and more pictures!

We ended the day at almost 7 because everyone had other plans planned for the night. Some of us were trying to meet up for the night to continue the session but it just did not work out. As an all, the day turned out to be a very fun and memorable day for all of us. Going down memory lane, is something very beautiful to look at! Looking forward to more such events!

Rupster says " About September"

September. The 9th month of the year. Lots of this has been happening. Its been a great month indeed. Filled with lots of emotions and important dates to keep in mind! Its also been month with a little traveling. Not only the the traveling to college but also traveling to other states of the country!

We made it to Malacca with the family. Than to Johore. The following weekend after Johore was Seremban. And in between a few other places as well! And not forgetting the highlight of the month which was the 60th Birthday bash! Very short planning but we believe it turned out awesomely!

Other than that, its just been the usual school going routine. A truth revealing month as well. Thankfully it all turned to be very smooth! Don't know what more is there to come but just got to keep staying strong and believe in ourselves!

Avery short entry. Lets see what has October has to show us!

Rupster says "About the trip to Down South"

During our childhood, one of the most looked forward trip was the trip we went as a family to down south which is Johore Bahru to visit dad's sister there. As time went on, we hardly went there as everyone was busy with their own lives since all 3 of them are married. Than last December, Rupster went down again for Christmas with friends. Mange to stay for 3 nights in aunty's place. though uncle and aunty were in KL at that time, cousin brother and wife were there to entertain Rupster.
Last weekend, 25th to 27th September Rupster headed for down south again. This time was to attend a graduation ceremony at UTM. It was a very last minute decision to go though. But after going and coming there was no regrets at all! The experiance was totally unexplainable. Never really got to see such things happening in a Private University or College.

So going through that whole experience was something memorable, and most importantly the person who graduated! The weather was not very fine though. It was raining through out the day. In fact, all the 3 days there it was raining.

The 1st night we spent by touring the whole campus of UTM. The campus was freaking huge! We went on a night tour rather than a day time tour. The scenery was fantastic. Especially the scenery we saw from the hill. How often you see a clear night sky with a ring around the moon? Yes! That was what we saw first thing as we got out of the car.

With a glance the 1st night was gone. Than came the second day. Which we literally spent the whole day in the car going here and there. Not forgetting catching a movie to fill in time and a little shopping as well.

Words a little, let the pictures say it all!

p/s And did we mention that KB Menon has its own very model now?

NO??

So here it goes!

CONGRATULATIONS!

Rupster thinks she knows how much you went thorough. The last 2 semesters in particular. There is more to come in life. Go ahead achieve and achieve all that you have dreamt of achieving!

Rupster says " About Suprise 60th Bash"

Its been a month filled with public holidays too! Yes. Because it is the festive season time, Almost all the Thursday in September seems to be a public holiday! So there you go! Even longer weekends cum holidays!Hari Raya is all about Ketupat, lemang and rendang! And Rupster has been having lots of them!

Rupster has been sort of busy actually. With the horrible timetable in hand, with the loads and loads of homework that need to be submitted even the long weekend does not seem a long weekend.

Updates has been very bad this whole month! Its already the 20th day of the month and it is just the second post of the month! Well actually the 1st since the other post was the overall happening for August!

Tuesdays and Wednesdays are the worst days because that is when we rush to finish our work! Plus with all the assignments, getting the group members to get done with their work is never easy!

All the busy schedule, also included a surprise 60th Birthday party for dad. To get the guest and to make them understand not to say a single word to him was easy. But keeping him at home and doing the preparations was not easy at all! There was an idea to send him for visiting but he would not go alone unless mum or Rupster follows. Mum could not go because she had to do the cooking.

The menu was basically on a pot-luck concept. At the end of the day, everything turned out perfectly! Everyone loved the food and not forgetting the CAKE! It was a Mango flavored ice cream cake. Tobby & Teddy @ T&T looked super cute on the cake!
