-Day 10-

Songs You listen to when You are Happy, Sad, Bored, Hyped or

Looks like it's been a while since I last blogged... Finally i'm back and I'm on blogging mode..LOL! So yea..this time my challenge is about music.. Something that is very very very CLOSE to my heart.. Music is my LIFE! Songs that I listen to? I have a loooong list.. Haha! I don't really have any song in particular.. I just listen to whatever song which is nice at that moment.. More of a carnatic music person..love listening to those kindda music.. Especially the Alaipayuthey and Nee Nenaindal song..So soothing! Totally calms me down =). At the moment, I'm in love with Stereo Hearts...I can just listen to it the whole day.. Love the music n the words =).. My other fav songs are Faraway.. Mohombi, Say Jambo! Bumpy Ride and Coconut Tree! Can make me go on dance mode.. Danza Kuduro is another song that can make me go on hyper mode..Anywhere or anytime..this song is like a starter for me! On dance mode...

Wondering....

Nowadays...I think too much and I wonder a lot.. like so many things are running in my mind at the same time...I dunno which one to think about first.. Been thinking about stuff and I get too emotional at times.. Feel like things have changed a lot.. I can see a difference.. hurts at times to think about stuff...but there's nothing that I can do about it.. All I know is... Gotta just go with the flow..and carry on with life.. I cant expect everything to be with me all the time...I know I'm bound to have changes...nothing remains forever..

- Day 09 -

Something that you're proud of in these past few days..

Things have changed.... I feel like I can see a difference! I'm proud of myself coz I've been able to get rid my home-sickness syndrome.. Don't really miss home as how I used to miss. That's a really good thing.. been more like myself now.. Having fun! Going out..Mixing around and actually socializing! Not the quiet lil girl who just arrived in Auckland anymore..LOL!

I'm able to manage on my own.. Dont really depend on anyone.. I admit being the youngest I'm pampered all the time..but itz not the type of pampered-ness that you people think.. I am independent and I'm capable of doing my own stuff..

- Day 08 -

Short term goals for this month and WHY?

Hmm...been thinking about it.. I do have a number of goals that I wanna achieve in a very short period of time..but I don't think that is ever gonna happen.. LOL! I'll just list down the most important ones and I'm pretty sure that I can actually achieve.. =)

1) So gotta go on a diet...

Been totally pigging out the whole time..

Being a Foodoholic I can't really deny the fact that I eat all the time..

BUT I seriously gotta cut down on my food

or else I wont be able to pass through any door..LOL!

Pretty sure i'll get myself stuck somewhere..

Will be back soon...n I know I will have a lot to eat..

Gotta control my food over here so I can eat back home..Hehe!

THE DIET BEGINS.... NO CHOCS! NO FAST FOOD!

2) Start hitting the GYM...EXERCISE WOMAN!

Hehe.. I keep saying that I have to hit the gym..

Been a while since I actually been inside the gym..

It's about time I actually pay a visit to the gym..

need to get rid of those fats stored in me...Haizzz!

They've been such a pain.. LOL! Wanna keep myself fit and try to

have a perfect figure..*letz hope that happens* LOL!

TIME TO HIT THE GYM KIRU!!!

U dont wanna be called FATTY!

Time to do something about those fats! *grrrr*

3) Do not PROCRASTINATE! Do your assignments on time!

This is suppose to be top on my list..but oh yeah...it kindda slipped outta my mind..LOL! Assignments are always BORING! You dont really have the mood

to complete it till its about time to start on it

I always work on my assignments few days before the submission date

Never liked being ahead of time for assignments

Love doing last minute work...

For some reason I feel like I can actually think better...

Maybe I work well when I'm under pressure..

But then...that gotta stop! N i seriously need to work on my assignments

earlier n not do last minute stuff...

Remember! Exam coming up...presentations n Tests...Haizzz! Life can be miserable at times..

Gotta just accept and move on with it...

START WORKING ON UR ASSIGNMENTS KIRU!

GAMBATEH! *rugby mood* Hehe!

- Day 07 -

A picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on u

Mom & Papa

There's always at one point in life you will realize that someone or something which happened would have given an impact on you... To me..So many things happened and has given an impact..made me realize a number of stuff.. I have accepted and moved on in life.

One of the biggest impact in my life I would definitely say are my parents.

Without them i'm nowhere in LIFE. It took me so long to actually see all the things and sacrifices that they have done for me... Being the youngest.. I've always taken things for granted. Felt like a pampered baby all the time. I always got what I wanted... My parents would never say no to me. I guess that is why I took them for granted.. Not like I was an evil daughter or something. Just that at times I feel like i'm selfish.. I always thought about myself and not about the rest.. n then there was this moment.. I thought about everything and I realized how lucky and grateful I was to have my parents with me the whole time. Meeting people and talking to them..getting to know their life and how they were brought up...got me thinking! My mom and dad has been with me the whole time.. be it near or far.. They were always there for me.. whether I was right or wrong.. I knew they will be there to support me..*no doubt after that I get all those long lectures from them*..but I knew I have them with me the whole time as support.. I can go on writing and it will never come to an end... its on going.. all I can say is.. without the both of you..I'm nothing! Just a piece of crap! Its because of YOU i'm who I am today..n I am proud of it.. the reason me having a better and good life is coz of you mom and dad... Ur love, constant support, the daily calls...ur assurance that i will be fine has kept me going over here.. To be honest.. I really miss all those lil moments with you..

LIL MOMENTS WITH MOM & DAD

~ Ma I really miss bugging ya in the kitchen

~ I miss fighting with you on the bed when you come into my room to disturb me

~ I miss my random chats with you

~ I miss hanging out with you... doing our random shopping

~ I miss playing ludo with you..LOL!

~ I miss your screaming and shouting... *cant believe I actually miss those*

~ Miss being ur lil nuisance

~ Papa! I miss making coffee for you

~ Miss disturbing you all the time for no reason

~ Miss coming to your room and waking ya up early in the morning to go for breakfast

~ Miss talking to ya

~ Miss ya feeding me all the time when I sit beside you when you have your lunch or dinner

I love you so much and I am lucky to be your daughter... Cant wait to be back.. I know I have the whole summer to spend time with you.. Will make full use of it.. n rekindle those lil moments again.. I promise to do dat when i'm back.. Hehe!

- Day 06 -

Favourite Superhero and Why????

All the superheroes were my favourite.. They all had something in them...Special in their own way.. It was interesting to see all the different abilities that each superhero had.. I remember during my young days.. I used to keep track of all the abilities of each superhero.. N I usually change my favourite superhero when I watch a new cartoon.. Wat to do...those were my kiddo days..

One movie I loved watching was BATMAN! I can count him as one of my best superhero... Be it the movie or cartoon... there was just something about the character that made me like him! He had the very mysterious kindda life and nobody knows about.. Lives in his own world.. being very secretive.. Had the classic n elegant look!

My Superhero~ <3

Loved his costume and Logo.. My BATMAN was always the very cute and handsome kindda superhero with his super hot body! LOL! Judging by his costume...and all the Superheroes have super hot body..=)..

His super cool car... *would wanna go on a fast date* LOL!

The awesome looking BIKE! Tell me who would actually say no for a ride on it? Hehe...

His trademark! Now you will know who's out there when you see this LOGO!

My BATMAN... My Superhero... is out there SAVING THE WORLD! =)

A picture of somewhere you've been to

~ CAPE REINGA ~

Here you go..one of the best place that I've been to since I got here.. During the Easter break I went on a road trip with my friends.. I did travel down to South of Auckland.. But the best Place I went to was Cape Reinga... right at the end of North of Auckland..

A LiL bit Of Cape Reinga

* Cape Reinga is the legendary departure point where the earthly spirit begins the journey back to Hawaiki.

* It is the point where the Tasman Sea and Pacific Ocean meet.

* A very sacred place for the Maoris

* Beautiful scenery...you would never wanna MISS!

The view of the sea from Cape Reinga!

Cape Reinga is one place that I would actually go back to.. there's something about this place that you feel like you wanna come back to.. The scenery..the view..the nature around it.. You can actually feel the Maori Spirit in this place! Trust me..You will know and feel it if you're there... I had an awesome time with my friends. We walked along the beach..stayed over at backpackers and went sand surfing at Sand Dunes!

Sand Surfing... More like rolling down the sand for me!

The Lighthouse.....

A place that took my breath away.... CAPE REINGA!

- Day 04 -

A Habit that you wish you didn't Have...

One habit that I wish I didn't have is dozing off in front of my lappy all the time when I have my skype conversations with my Buddy...LOL! I do that all the time.. I blame it on the time difference! The 'Time Factor' has been such a pain since I got here.. Oh well.. I do have my owl moments and I get chased to bed most of the time... I try keeping myself awake to catch up on skype..but at times.. my lappy watches me snoring under my blankie... I'm all snuggled up under my blankie.. knocked out. The next morning when I'm up I get all those msg from my Buddy on skype! lol! Well... I'm so sorry buddy for dozing off on ya all the time.. Yeap! I totally agree that I'm "Kumbakarna" now...Took over from ya! =)... N Yeah.. You know me well enough that you actually know when I doze off.. =)

The meaning behind your Blog name

Anything and everything you name has a meaning to it... So is my BLOG!

AS the name goes...LiL BuG is the name that I have given for My BLOG

Being the youngest in the family and always being everyone's little girl..I thought it would be cool to name my blog that way.. LOL! Something that I could relate to me being myself.. Well I've always been a bug to everyone.. I bug my family and buddy all the time.. Actually anyone who knows me well enough will tell ya how much of a bug I am.. I like bugging my loved ones...Just my way of showing how much I love them and that I'm in touch with them all the time.. If I do not bug that someone..then something is SERIOUSLY wrong with me.. I am like a LiL BuG.. you may not realise my presence but I am there all the time.. I am watching..I know watz going on around me.. It's just that I remain silent most of the time.. If you wanna look at it at a different angle..Well...I'm usually very quiet when I do my stuff... Silently working my way towards what I want! =)
