i sometimes do wonder what one's first impression of me is. when i was younger, like in primary and secondary school, many thought that i was a stuck up spoilt rich kid. which mind you, i was not. i was just really shy and therefore did not talk much to people. it would always have to be the other party making the first move. say preethi for example. she came up to me on day one and asked me if i was north indian. and the rest is history. yes. but the general response from people that i have met in uni is that i am rather bimbotic and full of shit. i normally do let people form impressions of me. i mean say if i know someone thinks that i am a total airhead, i do not see the need in proving them wrong. i mean they are bound to find out in due time. i do not get it though. like in the first semester of uni, many people thought of me as a total slacker who has a whole lot of parents dollars to throw around. but then come results time, they were rather taken aback. not that i am miss smarty pants. but i just wonder why they never thought logically. i mean to get into melbourne uni-faculty of economics and commerce, the minimum grade required from A levels is ABC. a definate entry is a ABB. and if i did manage to get into the same faculty as you, obviously i am of similar standard. but there will always be the exclusive few who feel that they are a notch above the rest. for no good reason either. why am i dwelling on this, especially in my last year of uni? i don't know. just popped into my head.

i am rather tired but i just cannot manage to sleep as my throat itches and my nosey is blocked. i have no idea what is wrong with me. i have never been the victim of germs so frequently. damn those germs. oh my god! it is september. 18 more days till i fly off again. urgh. i am getting so sick of aeroplanes. haha. i had initially intended to end my entry there but i just remembered that i watched red eye yesterday. i was on the edge of my seat. i even screamed once. all in the name of good fun. shock rather than fear. haha. but like when the plane was taking off during bad weather, the scene was rather scary. thank god i have never had a bad flight. turbulence and what not. but i hate hate hate aeroplane food. it makes me want to puke. i think it has a funny smell. ew. so exciting. who is excited? i am. haha. and sumi is too! she is leaving for manchester on the 11th of sept. i know, what a date. but sumi is really not scared. i spoke to her a few times, telling her how scared i was. and all she could say was: scared of what? i don't know! the unknown! heehee. i know quite a few people in uk already, but none in nottingham. so exciting.

18 more days people.

because i said so! Nadz at
