HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY

Atlast...Finally...after SO many days I've got my laptop back...and the exams are almost over but there's more to come - the results!!

Finished reading 'The Machine Gunners'. It is indeed the best book aout WW II, well it's not exactly about it...it's about other things too, read it if you want to know. I'm not gonna write the story here. Went to the library last evening, and started reading 'Jessica Haggerthwaite: Witch Dispatcher' last night. This book's by Emma Barnes and I haven't read any book by her yet. So it's about a girl (Jessica) whose mother wants to be a proffesional witch. And she wants to be a world-famous scientist and having a mother who's a witch would be weird. I haven't read much but the illutrations remind me of 'The Witches' by Roald Dahl. Umm...Tim Archbold but it was Quentin Blake for 'The Witches'....the sketches look same though.

"One child a week equals fifty-two a year, squash them and squiggle them and make them disapper." This is the motto of all witches in Dahl's world. Ever read that book? Well, you're not gonna read it now right? I read that when I was 11. And even 'Charlie and The Chocolate Factory', 'The BFG', 'Esio Trot', 'The Girrafe and the Pelly and Me', 'James and The Giant Peach', 'Boy' and 'Matilda'.

So today my friend's gonna come back to Bhopal for the holidays, from her boarding school in Rajasthan. So we'll meet up somewhere and party! Bye and take care!!

Bring me to life...

Shit happens...

Stop talking about these exams puhleeze!!

Enough...I'm a loser and no need to tell me again and again...
I thought this blogging would be a great idea but it just turns out to be a reminder about the exams...and other stuff. Sorry about this but...leave it.


So now I'm reading this book called 'Machine-gunners'...but I don't wanna talk about it right now. Wanna hear MY story? It's not good enough to be read. Sorry this post was a bit short but I'll try writing about happier things later...

Actually drowning, not waving...these exams are gonna kill me!!


I'm reading this book-'Waving, Not Drowning' by Rosie Rushton. It's a story about three 16 year olds. I've almost read half the book and it's about Fiona or Fee whose father is a very famous actor. Jay who has no parents and lives with his Gran who is getting a little forgetful, not really a little and Lyall who lives with his foster parents and thinks that they're gonna dump him. More about the book after I finish reading it!




Now the exams...So far, so good...but it won't last for long. Tomorrow, french...help!!






I have no idea how the paper would be. But the last two were easier than I expected- Social Science and English, the only two subjects which I can manage to study. Uh...I'm talking about SST, not English...no need to study for it. And this time science is looking easy, atleast Chemistry is. Bio has all these diagrams! And phyjics...I mean physics is...you know how it is. I'll have to get serious now, time for some real studying!!

Bored!!

Bored...bored...bored...bored.....
Nothing to do except study!
And the number of hand-outs has increased so much that I can't even keep them all in one place. I still have to write the letter and speech for the English homework. Blah blah. My brain isn't even working, after looking at (not studying, not possible) all the rubbish in my 'phyjics' notebook.

Now, not much to write here. I keep typing stuff and deleting it. Okay, finished with the book, started reading another one called the 'Terminal Chic' by Chloe Rayban.

The sad news is that my laptop isn't working, some prob with the messenger and explorer. But thank heavens, Limewire is working fine. I'm working on my bro's PC right now, and he doesn't quite like it. More about everything tomorrow or maybe later. Ciao!

Hi people....

Hey there... after reading this post, please don't forget to leave a comment.

I was just reading 'The Royal Bengal Mystery' by Satyajit Ray. This is the sixth book in the series- The Adventures of Feluda. I've read almost half the book, well I just started reading this to keep my mind off other stuff, I had no idea that I'd find this book interesting.
I had tried reading one from the series some years ago, but it seemed boring. Weird, this book reminds me of the movie- Kaal. Many of you won't agree, but I did find some of the parts of the movie scary. For example, the well scene...oh no, I'd just shutup, it's quite late at night and everyone else is sleeping. I get scared easily! So, I was reading this book and it is kinda exciting, I hope I get a chance to go to Bengal some time and see a couple of tigers, if they're left that is! I'm seriously worried about them. Hunting shouldn't have been a sport. It's all wrong...no-one can be proud of hanging tigers' or deer's heads on the walls.
And the cover of the book, a skull....help me! Wonder why I ever chose this book. But now I have, so I have to finish reading this whatever happens. I never leave a book unread if I've
started reading it, even a single page. Well, you can very well guess that-- 'The Cutest Book Worm'. Okay, I may not be cute, but surely I am a bookworm. And let me warn you, most of the posts here would be about the books I'm reading or about some of my favourite books, so stay away if you hate books or find them boring. It came as a shock to me when a few of my friends asked me if I 'really like reading books??'. They didn't know that? Ofcourse, I do.
So that's all for now, I have to get up early tomorrow and study for the HYs. Bye and take care all!!
