Saw Baazigar today, an old SRK movie from the early 90's, and my GOD did I love it!!!!! I can't wait until you two come home so you can watch it. Of course, it has subtitles so you won't have to look at me every two seconds to ask me what they're saying. I warn you though, there is much violence on the part of SRK and...well...you probably won't like the ending. That's all I have to say about that.
Oh and, last night I started Swades, that one that SRK came out with in December. So far, I like it. The music's excellent of course and the girl opposite SRK is pretty (would have been better if it were me though right?) Anyway, I plan on finishing it tonight after Pyshe class. I'll give you two the update later.

It really has been a long time since I last posted, atleast a couple months or so. It's amazing how time has gone by.
I had my New Year's party, which was great because my friends were there, and then Ash, Rache, and I went to Providence to visit Brittani, but we never saw her because she didn't want to see us. Oh well. Now, I'm mostly just working and going to school again, but my brithday's coming up in a couple months and I'll be 18. Amazing, huh? I'll finally be an adult.
And over spring break, I'm going to Indiana to see my sister, which will probably be my highlight of the year.
Other than that, life's...so-so.
No boyfriend, but plenty of options...I don't feel like getting into it though because I've got class in a few minutes.
Anyway,I guess I should go.
Love,
Sofia

So I'm at Chris's again. We didn't get in too late last night, probably around midnight. We ended up going shopping at Devon, just as I thought we would, and I got THE CUTEST SHIRTS! Plus, I, of course, bought movies and got some free movie posters with Shahrukh Khan in them!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!
Then we had dinner at this club and I met Skyy!!!!! I mean, come on, the hottest Indian remix DJ in the world and I met him! Of course, with my luck though, I didn't have my camera on me. I was extremely pissed and saddened by that. But I did get to dance with him, so I guess that more than made up for it.
Later on, we just walked downtown and hung out on Lakeshore Ave. It was almost as perfect as the night before, except that the whole day my voice was getting worse and worse. But I woke up this morning and noticed it was getting better. I guess that NyQuil really does work wonders.

Well, as I'm sure you've guessed from the subject, I'm in Chicago again. Of course, it's funny to think my vacation is the only time I would ever get to update my journal because I'm always so busy when I'm at home.
Either way, the trip started out pretty sucky because of the damn airport security. They took us aside for one of those "random" searches again and practically felt us up. I feel so violated. And then, I started feeling sick on the plane and I started to get a fever. All day yesterday I kept taking Tylenol, cough drops, and Dayquil. But the thing that took the cake was that I started losing my voice. I mean, come on, me in Chicago and unable to talk? It's like blasphemy! And then, I spent the whole day with my aunt and uncle at the house that's really far away from downtown Chicago without transportation! I was trapped!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But around 7 in the evening, my cuz's friend Chris (not to be confused with Krish) called and was like, "Jaan (Lovely), you're in Chicago and you didn't tell us? We're on our way over now, so go put on that blue outfit I like so much."
I almost cried because I was so happy they were coming to pick me up. I was sooooooooo ready to go party! So I told my mom I was going out and told her I'd probably meet her for shopping the next day.
The guys showed up, all pimped out in their Indian finest, and took me out to this club called Rang Deeni (Indian, of course). We drank lassi, danced, and they told me all about what kind of mischief they've been up to since last time I was in Chicago. Then we left at midnight to see the new Shahrukh Khan movie called Veer Zaara (I'm going to buy it when it comes down on DVD) and because the whole theater was filled with Desis, we all yelled and threw popcorn at the screen. Every time I saw Shahrukh Khan in wet clothes I whistled while the boys boo-ed and threw their food. It was hilarious.
After the movie, we decided to go stay at Chris's house since his room is above the garage and we didn't have to disturb his parents so early in the morning.
Now, the boys are still sleeping while I'm just hanging out on the computer. I figure I'll wake them up soon and tell them to take me to Devon for some shopping. After that, who knows? Maybe downtown again or go down to PF Chang's in Northbrook for dinner.
Alright, I'll update tomorrow since I'll probably end up at Chris's again.
Luv, Fifi |

So it was just me and Ian last night from about 6:30 until 11. It was such a fun night and I've really missed just hanging out with him alone. I always forget how hilariously funny he is. So anyway, we went out the BBB in New London and got some drinks and stuff before heading over to the Taste of Mystic. Of course, it took us approxiamtely two hours to get there because, well, we got lost. I'm starting to think I might be becoming blonde or something because I just can't seem to find my way around freakin' CT anymore! Anyway, it was still great. We ended up at Stonington Village and just sat on a couple rocks and talked about the most idiotic things ever. And then, Ian had to pee and because we were nowhere near a bathroom, he peed on a rock. I was soooooooooooooooooooooooooo grossed out. Heheheh, I was laughing so hard though. When we finally got to the Taste, we were hungry but nothing was open anymore. It was sad, but we still hung out there for awhile until we realized that we both needed to be up early in the morning. So Ian took me home, stopping at Club 251 on the way. We had to pee so bad, but they wouldn't let us in because we weren't 21. So sad.
Finally we got back to my place around 11 and my mom kept telling us how worried she was and asking what really happened. I told her we killed a man and hid his body in the woods, as per the usual outings I have with my friends.
Anyway, I have to go.
Buhbye

I got back from Chicago on Tuesday but this was unlike any other trip I've had. I mean, there was of course the partying with the cousins. (My god, I love the cousins. They always make me laugh) And there was the Gabriel, who is starting to grow out of calling me Fofa (sadness). Oh plus, before I forget, he calls my bangles "knuckles" and my cell phone is not actually my cell phone. It's his and he's just letting me borrow it.
Oh, but anyway, guess why this trip was different?
I GOT MY HAIR CUT!!!!!! AND IT'S PINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, not horribly bright pink. I mean, I have black hair for God's sake. It's like a pretty dark fuchsia.
But my hair's really short. Shoulder length with really cute layers.
I know, crazy right? I feel all special and pretty now. Everyone at work was commenting on it. Hehehe, yeah. Anyway I've got to go and purchase some tickets to see my Indian sex god in concert!!!! :)

2. My sister is coming on Saturday and that means my little baby will be there!!!!!!! YAY!!!!
3. Who can forget my thuggish cousins? Oh, and that romantic klepto Chris? Which remind me, I better find that ring he stole for me. :)
4. There's going to be an ISNA Conference(Islamic National Association)right in Devon and there's going to be crazy shopping/rallying/praying going on. I can't wait!
This is going to be so great, just as long I get my calc and english homework done. WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!

Jill left today at approx. 10:00 and I was at work. But last night I went to her work and brought her a three page letter about all the things that she should remember while she's at college. I cried alot and so did she. Hell, my mom cried a little. I know it wasn't appropriate at her work, but I couldn't help it. I was a blubbering idiot. But I can't help it. She's my best friend.
She told me that if she got out of work early enough, she'd come by to see me. But I really didn't expect her to, so I went to sleep. Of course, I kept my cell near me just in case. At 11, she called and asked if she could hang out. I was like, "Well, fuck yeah." So she came over and we totally did a recap of the past six years we've been friends. Not a long time, but definitely filled with some great times. Like Indian movies, and the Jiffy Lube and of course, our infatuation with writing and reading.
When she finally had to leave, we had another cry and I told her that if it came down to a rumble between us, I'd win. She agreed.
And now rachele's leaving tomorrow. Ever since Europe, we've become better friends and I'm gonna hate letting her go too.
And Nini, well, of course I'm going to miss her. Who's gonna be my ray of pessimism? :)
Yeah, it's all making me very teary-eyed now. I better get going before I start to ball.

I think life is finally getting back on track. Of course, not the same track, but hey, I'll take what I can get. I've got a car, a license, a phone, a job, classes to take, and money. I don't know exactly what I'm going to do in January because I don't really want to go to Mt. Holyoke anymore, but whatever, we'll see.
By the way, I just want to say that I'm going to miss everybody who's leaving and/or left. (LOVE YOU ASHLEY!) I wish we could all spend these last two weeks together, but if haven't spent any the summer together, what's the point?
Anyway, that's it. I've got work soon and I need to dry my shirt.
Oh, and Rache, we've got to talk about getting together because you have to finish that movie!!!! :)

...So Kari (Jseo), Jill (Loser), and I (moi) hung out today after I got out of work. We went to the mall for awhile, got a couple books, talked about nonsensical things, and then Jill split. My mom came and the three of us went out to Pizza Hut for some of that Twisted Crust pizza. It was excellent. :}
...My car's going to the dealership tomorrow

...And on to some other news, I went to see Harold and Kumar today with my mom. My God, WE LAUGHED SO MUCH!!!!!! It was fuckin' hilarious! I mean, I know Ash and Rache told me that it was not a movie that my mom would want to see, but she was dyin'! Like the part where Doogie Houser stole Harold's car?! And when the part with the cheetah?!!! I LOVED IT!
...On to the next topic, MY CAR. It stalled yesterday, but luckily started when I had to go to work today. On Tuesday I have an appt to bring it and be checked. It's getting new wheel barrings, new tires, and other cool new shit. I can't wait until it's all pimped out because then I can start decorating!!!!! :)
Well, that's it. I'm off.

...Tommorow morning I go in and take my exam. I'm not really worried anymore becuase I've practiced reverse parking adn doing three-point turns. I just have to make sure to check my mirrors, keep my hands on 10 and 2, and not go over the speed limit (which I tend to do becuase 25 is way too slow). Other than that, I've gone through the manual, I've been driving solidly for more than a year now, and I'm ready.
...As for other things, the Grand-Am is in the shop just for a checkup and brake pads. Hopefully I'm going to have it back today. Either way it doesn't matter becuase I'm taking the Jeep in as my exam car because I was trained on that for a year and it would be stupid to take the car I hardly know. Which reminds me, I have to take the JEep in for a car wash.
...I hear it's going to rain tomorrow, and I'm not too happy about that. I don't know how I'm going to do in the rain but I'm just hoping it won't start really pouring until after I'm done.
Well, that's it. I'm off to do other things.

...Well, I'm going in for my license on Thursday and I'm more paranoid that I'm going to get stopped by a cop than ever. Luckily, I just have two days left and then I'm getting it. The only problem I may have is parallel parking and three-point turns. But, I'm going to practice the night before, so I should be fine.
...As for everything else, I've been working like a mad dog. I worked twelve hours today, and I might have to work 11 tomorrow. I hope not because I need to take the car in to get the oil changed and whatnot.
...Mattie told me I was looking cute today and even though I'm not a lesbian, I took it as a compliment :) She and I are going to hang out on Friday (hopefully) and we're gonna go to Charley's for lunch.
...I just realized that my mom works less hours than me. That's sad because I still make $500 less than her a week. :(
...Well....I'm going now. I have to look for the Jeep's insurance card and then I'm going to take a nap before dinner.

...I sang that song as soon as I walked into work today and it resulted in scaring a few customers off. :) Oh well.
...Saw James today. He's the hot guy who works at Tiki Tattoo. He goes over to the kiosk everyday and gets a protein shake. The girls and I will often make any excuse to go over there just stare at his perfect arms. Today, I went over there three times and everytime I came back, I'd walk into the store and give a little shimmy for my coworkers. (luckily, there weren't any customers at the time)
...I worked a hall of a lot of hours this weekend, made 21 hours on overtime alone. Sorry to those I made plans with, and I know there were a few of you, but you know that you would have done the same for that kind of overtime.
...Anyway, I was wiped out by Monday and took three days off from work. I called Jack, Britt, and Jill to hang out, and the only one to never call me back was Britt. Oh well, she probably had other things she needed to do.
...I'm going out to a movie with my mom tonight, my treat. Isn't she lucky? :) Yeah, we're going to see Harold and Kumar because we want to see if there are any allusions to Indians and/or Indian traditions.
...Tomorrow, I'm going to Manhattan to do a little shopping with her. When my mom first told me we were going to Manhattan I thought she meant we were stopping by my work. *silly tear*
...Note to self: Ian has my tape and I must get it back.

Yeah, I don't like my boss anymore. He's mean. As for everyone else, I love them and they love me. As I was leaving today, Mattie (the coolest black lesbian ever!) was like, "Where the fuck do you think you're going? You're supposed to stay here and keep me sane." And I was like, "Fuck that, you can come with me if you want, but I'm leavin'." But she had to stay and I went home.
I talked to Jack and Ash today. I'm supposed to hang out with Ash tomorrow. We're planning on seeing Terminal because I love Tom Hanks and for some reason this movie reminds me of Forrest Gump (the best TH movie ever), so it'll probably be really good. Monday I'm working from 5-2 and then I'll probably "scoop" Mattie up and "chill" at her "crib". :) She's trying to teach me Ebonics. As for Tuesday, I'm thinking about hanging with Jack and then on Wednesday, I'll hopefully be hanging out with Britt. I haven't seen her for awhile and it's becoming quite apparent that she'd rather drive all the way up to Lyme than New London. *grr and a half* But maybe I'll be able to change her around with a little Taco Bell. :P

Okay, so I know I live in New London, but that soooooo doesn't mean you can't freakin' call people!!!!! I know, Ash, I know. You're the only one who's been keeping in touch. Besides Kari, and of course Rache is in Spain so I can't blame her...
But the rest of you...it's pitiful.
Anyway, life's been alright. I get my second paycheck and I'm excited. I've been driving the Jeep as of late, but starting tomorrow I will be driving the GrandAm to work. Speaking of which, I've been woring alot. I have 30 hours under my belt for this week and it's only wednesday. Yeah, I've been working like crazy.
By the way, thanks to those of you who commented on my last journal entry. I have decided to get over it. I'm not mad at either of them and I had no reason to be, because he was never mine, right kids? I'm trying really hard to be mentally healthy right now because I've got a hard couple months coming up. But, on the same note, you're right Nini and Rache. I think I'm hotter too. Hehehe

...Just found out something today while I was reading a friend's lj and I started to cry. I don't know how long it's been going on, but it's really making me depressed. Some of you may have an inkling as to what I'm talking about, others may not. Either way, it's going to be a shitty day and not just because of the weather.
...But I might as well tell you about the other stuff that's been going on. I've been working a lot lately and will get my tips probably today.
...I got a new CELLPHONE yesterday, the number's 908-3238. Don't call me too much though because I have to share the minutes with my mom. But I have to tell you, it's the cutest phone ever!
...I also got a new CAR yesterday. It's a Pontiac Grand-Am. A little sporty, a little luxury, lots of fun to drive. It needs to be cleaned and stuff, but I should be going to pick it up around 5:30 today. I'm excited as hell. Though, I think it may end up being more my mom's car, rather than mine. She likes the fact that it's new and sporty. That doesn't bother me so much though because that means I get the Jeep. And who doesn't love my mom's Jeep? Come on...no contest.
...That's it for new toys in my possession, but yesterday I also gained a bit of coffee knowledge. I worked at the kiosk for nine hours yesterday and I officially know how to make white mochas, brown monkeys, double espressos, oregon chai, almond joys, mounds, fruit smoothies, etc etc. I'm greatly excited because I get to work there today (even though I'm going to be sad while I'm there) and on Saturday from 7-4.
GTG and get ready for work.

...yeah, as you can tell, I saw that movie yesterday. Personally, I think it didn't flow correctly, but there were alot of facts in there that I didn't know though, so I guess that makes up for that.
...I worked all this weekend and had today and tomorrow off, but I scheduled myself in for tomorrow because I need the money. So today's my only day off until Friday.
...Speaking of Friday, it's the first day of Sailfest. If anyone wants to go with me, call me up. It's also going on Sat and Sun.
...I have two important things to do today. Look at cellphones and cars. I think I'm just going to go on my mom's account and do the whole family line thing because she doesn't use her minutes very much unless it's on nights and weekends. So I figure we'll split the cost down the middle and share the minutes.
...Speaking of cars, I'm thinking a dealership is the way to go for a used car, rather than having to deal with actual people. Dealers clean their cars, make sure they're in tip top shape, and you can always go back to the dealer when the car goes ape shit.
...Is there anything else? Not really. I haven't seen alot of you in a long time and that makes me sad, but I guess we knew that would happen, right? It's why I joined yearbook.
