Top 20 things I miss right now..
I devised this list during my Animal and Plant Breeding Theory paper..and I wonder why I’m screwing up my papers this semester…:( Anyway, here goes:
1. A good night’s sleep on a solid mattress. (this hostel mattress is so not enough for a pampered princess like me).
2. A healthy meal, 3 veggies + 1 meat, cooked and fed by hand, with love. (because hostel food sucks and the princess is too lazy to eat by herself).
3. A spacious bathroom with a shower head that doesn’t break and provides just the right water pressure. (princess likes her showers A LOT).
4. The privacy to dry off and get dressed in a room in peace. (4 in a room sucks).
5. Facials and spa treatments with Vanitha on lazy Sunday afternoons. (we shall do this when I get there Vanitz, we have to).
6. Early morning breakfasts with Thaya in Silva’s where we enjoy "kutuk-ing" the slow service. (the food is good though).
7. Hours and hours on the phone non-stop with Sankya about all the gossip in the world. (strange how I can talk so much an so fast only with you la woman).
8. Helping my sisters with their homework and doing their artwork for them just because I’m good at it. (yea, perasan, I know).
9. Washing the balcony and bathrooms on Sunday mornings. (usually I’d complain when told to do this, but after living in filth in this hostel, I appreciate me chronic and clean family so so so much).
10. Layan-ing music for hours and hours with no disturbance. (yea, no one to tell me anything about my music taste or no need to be a considerate child and switch it off).
11. Reading the newspapers with a cup of teh tarik beside me at the mamak by myself. (its therapeutic, trust me).
12. Flipping channels on Astro at midnight and end up watching E! end of the day. (I have officially forgotten how to hold a remote control, so I’ll have to practise again these holidays. And E! is the only thing to watch at that hour besides reruns anyway).
13. Taking the dogs for a walk around SS 15. (And hope that some shirtless and muscular dudes are playing football in the field at that time..heehee..).
14. Running errands with Sankya and her mom all around town. (And driving her mad with our insane chatter).
15. Baking cakes and cookies in Aunty Anne’s house. (More like, licking the batter from the bowl and spoon..hehe).
16. Doing mindless Maths questions for the heck of it. (I admit, I am a nerd).
17. Going to Giant every weekend with Amma. (And filling the trolley with all the stuff I want when she’s not looking..lol).
18. Watching Tamil serials n kutuk-ing th heroine for always being so stupid. (And slow!).
19. Reading old storybooks over and over again out loud. (Because the words sound nice when they roll off my tongue).
20. My ever-silver India plate with the compartments. (I like my food in compartments la, I do).
That concludes the top 20 things that I miss at the moment, in no particular order. This does not include the people that I miss yet, or the actual proper things that a person far from home should be missing..I think. These are all thanks to lack of sleep and roti milo..(thank you cafe anne!)..
With that, I shall end my ramblings of tonight, and hope you enjoyed your read..good night America! (its the sasau, pay no heed).
