On Saturday night, everyone went into a cleaning frenzy, and I was told that relatives are coming over the next day. Sunday afternoon, I opened the door to a fantastic bunch of friends. THANK YOU (vaguely in order of appearance) Simran, Saranya, Thiru, Reema, Subra, Abhishek, Rama, Amu, Sneha, Manraj, Serena, Aditya and Dhevy! And my family of course, Sowmya in particular, for liasing with them =]
I'm not sure if it's okay to put photos up here. I guess I'll put up a couple =D
We were supposed to be staring at Serena's imaginary spider on the ceiling.
It was a great day, thank you all once again! From Simran's story about me (plus the poem, hahaha) to Rama and Subra talking in Tamil, to Serena's music, it was all hilarious and memorable. And thank you for the gifts!
And Monday was another surprise. I was expecting to meet Raghav, and Bala jumped out ("like a teletubby") from behind the wall! Thank you so much you two! It was wonderful finally meeting both of you! And the present was excellent!
It's on display, da. =D
And then was the meeting with primary school friends Yagnya and Shalini. Yagnya brought Chicago over (she turned 18 in December, haha) and after watching that, we walked to the beach and talked and talked and talked. (We were talking nineteen to the dozen, literally, if I may add, because I was almost nineteen and she behaved like she was twelve. Haha I'm kidding, eggie.) And rushed home in time to open the door for Shalini, after which all three of us and my sister continued talking and talking- we hadn't seen each other for so long!

My face and my favourite Victorian tshirt got cake-smeared =( Luckily the camera's battery ran out of charge. But it was fun =D It was fun overall, I mean, not the cake-smearing part. Haha.
[Just look at my sister (in blue) and I. No stranger would believe we're sisters.]
And a big THANK YOU to everyone who smsed/called/emailed me! I was really touched =]
Probably going to VJ tomorrow to see the ICS juniors dancing for the CNY concert. Exciting times!

Nadia:
Thank you! Haha yes, I often am doubtful. lol.
Mia:
No it's not the tilt in our heads, I tihnk we're smiling the same way in that pictures. Yes that first one is pretty interesting isn't it? haha.
Simran:
I care!! It's an identity crisis man! haha! WHAT BABE?? I don't see anyone of that calibre! hahahaha i'm kidding too. No, actually our eyes are quite different. Both in size and shape. No i look more like my mum, you just thought I look like my dad cos he's fair =] and YES our personalities are pretty similar.
she meant me, oi. she accidentally said 'the babe next to sowmya', instead of saying 'the babe called sowmya'. LOLOL.
yes our eyes are rather different. shre u forgot to mention colour as well. =p.
and are u sureeee our personalities are the same?? hah anw i take after papa in terms of 'temperament'...ahaha!
-mia
Hahaha, it was like a teletubby what? Besides it was all r's idea. Promise.
LOL now because of that (It's on display) I'm gonna get screwed by r. hahaha.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Belated. Just realised I didn't wish you! Man I suck. Ahhhh well. =)
Sowmya:
Ohmigosh what an ego.. Yea eyes are different, and what colour? You mean eye colour or skin colour or what? I'm not much fairer than you anyway. I KNEW I'd have backlash from you when I said our personalities are same. Haha it's hard to explain innit? It's same and different, both at once. But YEA you're mercurial.
Bala:
Hahaha! Yes it was teletubbyish. Lol! You and R come up with the most hilarious ideas mannnnn.
Haha why will you get screwed! It was darn funny then. =D
Thanks for the wishes! Haha nah that's okay. Man U doesn't suck. (pun! not grammatical error.) Lol and neither do you! =]
awesomeeeee. funky pun right there.
as a famous dude once said, "I Hump, Therefore I Am"
=)
dude. when the hell was it my idea? spastic NAANsense. the whole teletubby thing was YOUR IDEA. even though i said we shouldn't do it! ruuuubbbbbiiiiissshhhhh. although that saying at the end does save you some blushes. Try this one "I came, I say, I HUMPED."
XD
CHAPATIsense. you first suggested the teletubbies as a surprise thing, but took it back coz it was tooo "immature" for you. nyeh nyeh nyeh.
"When in Rome, HUMP."
Bala:
I suppose you're that famous person eh? hahaha.
Raghav:
Hahaha!! I'm laughing too hard to say anything else =D except this: it's "i came, i SAW, i humped." NO WAIT. YOU humped =D
Both of you:
WHAT IS IT WITH YOU TWO AND TELETUBBIES?!?! hahahaha eh what DOSAsense is this. i don't care whose idea it was, it was hilarious! =P it's alright to be immature now and then yea. lol.
and eh, this isnt rome! you shouldn't be humping here then =D
NO! THE I SAY WAS ON PURPOSE!
It was supposed to be, ".... I SAY, 'I HUMPED' ". If i change it to I said, it would sound funny. bleagh. Never minddddd.
"all that glitters is not HUMP."
your friends are funny hahaha and SHREYER WHY ARE YOU AND SOWMYA TALKING ABT YOUR SIMILARITIES HERE DONT YOU TWO HAVE THE SAME HOUSE?!?!
ps. no, it's the babe NEXT TO sowmya. sowmya, you can be the Babe Who Comes in Second to Simran :D:D:D:D that's pretty esteemed!
Raghav:
Oh, haha okay then. I'm not fluent in the technicalities of your very refined religion so i won't comment. lol. =D
NOTHING THAT GLITTERS IS HUMP.
Simran:
Haha we're discussing here for your benefit =D of course we've talked about this at home hahaha. Oh gosh i can't stand your ego. You two sort out the hierachy of "babes" *rolls eyes* yourselves. haha.
hahaha wow...suddenly balaji turned the convo a whole other way...what's with all the 'humped'? hahah.
and are u guys starved? looks like u really need a good dose of dosa, naan and chapathi wahahaha...
simran, yes, we're discussing this here cos we've talked abt it endlessly to each other, so now it's time to bring the discussion to a public forum. =D. as for our argument, i can be the babe and u can be the babette....LOL. =D
-mia
sowmya you DO NOT want to be enlightened about the very profound humpism. trust me. haha. haha you should sponsor a meal for them since you're earning. lol.
have we really talked about it that much? i don't see what all the fuss is about, actually. babette?!?! you made simran sound like some french pastry!!
Alrighty. a couple of things.
firstly, raghav and i are the most mature and sensible ppl i know. and therefore, we are NOT jokers.
secondly, humpism is the new hakuna matata. it helps with absolutely ANYTHING in life. for more details, you can ask shreya, she knows the whole deal. i think.
and thirdly, but MOST importantly, HUMP.
Peace out. Word.
Firstly, I second everything Bala has said.
Secondly, I second everything Bala has said.
Thirdly, HUMP.
Cheers.
That deleted post is me btw, if anyone is wondering. I had to change something. XD.
HAHA. You two are the most sensible and mature people you know? Just how many people do you know man?!
But ok. To give you credit. I shall publicise for you guys here. And display all I know about Humpism. Lol.
Overview:
Raghav and Balaji, together with other friends, are co-founders of Humpism. Like most religions, this religion has a god too, who, (according to raghav) is George Clooney. Humpism is the new lease of life you've been looking for if you are sick and tired of life's problems. Or if you're just looking for fun. While I can't honestly prove that raghav and bala aren't jokers (lol), I can safely say that Humpism seems to work. (Disclaimer: this conclusion wasn't reached through personal experience, only observation.)
History:
Once again, like other religions, Humpism evolved from less-efficient trains of thought. It started with BFL - Bachelors For Life. Then it was modified (my idea!) to BFN - Bachelors For Now. However, this still wasn't enough. And that gave rise to Humpism.
Commandments:
(Courtesy of Bala's blog)
The 5 Commandments
1. Thou shalt not lose your heart to anyone.
2. Thou shalt be mature and say "Boobies"
3. Thou shalt not lie.
4. THOU SHALT HUMP!
5. Any question, refer to no. 4.
Interesting point:
Humpism comes with accompanying.. (i'm trying to find a nice way to put it).. movements. The author of this write-up does not trust herself to witness these gestures yet for fear that she is still a novice, and will not be able to take it.
Deviations:
Deviation from the First Commandment will be allowed only after careful consideration of the person involved. The Humpism Follower who finds himself on the brink of breaking that Commandment must consult with his Humpism brothers first.
Conclusion:
Humpism may be a new religion, but it has spread quickly. People who loathed to use the word 'hump' when it was first introduced can now write a mini essay on it. (Lol.) At the very least, it will make you laugh, and laughing is healthy. Contact Raghav or Balaji if you wish to join.
Wow, I made it sound so good. Haha.
what the hell is this? hahahahahaha some kind of thesis report? but yes, everything in there is true. you missed 1 commandment that was added in later.
6. Thou shall not break any hearts
apart from this, everything else is spot on. followers are welcome! XD
haha honestly, i'm NOT complaining. this is a GOOD advert for the religion.
BTW, this religion is never in conflict with any other religion. if there's an area of conflict, trust us, it will be ironed out. with a simple incantation of...HUMPYYY. =)
Amen brother. XD
Hahahaha. =D Cool stuff. Oh sorry about the sixth one haha. And another point added by Bala:
"it teaches you the true meaning of life, and how anything is just temporary."
I'm not sure I see the truth behind that but oh well, I'm just advertising. =P
