Gappie Hour =)

I've been chomping down food like a blender these past few days. Now that I'm back home, my appetite has swelled up to twice its original capacity.Guess I missed amma's cooking. Or maybe it's just my system's way of telling me that I've got to gain weight. Either way.. who cares? Food is elementary. Just like air. Now, when we breathe, is it wrong to inhale more than what we're suppose to inhale? How much are we suppose to inhale anyway? Does it matter? Now that's something worth pondering about, don't you think so?

So as I ramble about things not worth rambling about, I came across a few interesting facts that might be useful to some people I know ;) Did you know that :

-Human thigh bones are stronger than concrete?

-Coca- cola would be green if colouring weren't added to it?

-Slugs have four noses?

-Beetles taste like apples, wasps like pine nuts and worms like fried bacon?

-In 1386, a pig in France was executed by public hanging for the murder of a child?
( so what about those who loved bacons huh?Gosh seriously.. aren't we a bunch of funny people)

-Most lipsticks contain fish scales?

-The fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of your mouth is called Arachibutyrophobia?

- a group of crows is called a murder?


Well. Neither do I. Except for the part about the lipstick. I've heard of that before but I thought it would be nice to include that too. I mean, everyone is rushing to find out who LiLo is going out with, when JT would be coming down to have a concert and a million other things about someone who doesn't even care what your first name is but very few take notice of how strong their thigh bones are. Sad. Sorry for being a party-pooper. But that's reality isn't it?

I should really take some time to learn things that actually mean something to me. Things like my dog and why he goes berserk everytime the recycling guy does his 'surat khabar lama' routine, the shrubs at the back of my house, the stuffs that go into iko biscuits ( I love them ;) ) and well, you get the hint.

I know that I won't regret it.

Toodles,
Gappie

Step it Up!

So this post is to make up for the past 4 or more weeks that I remained idle... not that I was laying back with both my feet up in my room of course. I was so extremely kannadishly busy.

Just after the futsal championship, we had to prepare for our sports day. I'm proud to admit that I did manage to stick to my resolution this time. I jogged more compared to the last FESKOTT. I decided that looking like a half dead chicken when I reach the finishing line again this time was NOT COOL. Word.

And guess what?! I even visited the gym in Subang. Or was it in KL? Oh well.. who cares ? The point is that I went to the GYM! All thanks to my dear cuzzie, Suba akka who happened to have a free pass for the 'Fitness First' centre she goes to. (Note to self : Ask her where exactly it is).


Well, actually I'll be sitting for my Kannada test tomorrow; the one that I missed a few weeks ago. And since I have nothing much to say apart from the fact that my stomach hurts so much from laughing too hard in my apartment, I shall practise my kannada here. Oh yea by the way, speaking of laughing, Chenies has a new nickname.. Lim Lotion. And since I've revealed hers, it is only fair that I reveal the names of my other two mobs.. B.J and Peepana. ( Peepana or Pepana; we haven't decided on that yet). And as for mua.. I'm Gapple!!

Ok now for my Kannada :-)
kai beralu, kannu gudde, kannu reppe, hrudaya, reppe gudalu, mughu, baayi, naalige, hallu, kivi, kivi tamate, hubbu, davade.. these are body parts
Jana, Dana, Kamala, pada, padara, Iiga, gaja, aane,yama.. these are words using simple consonants.

Nanu Gayathri. Nanna Ippadu varsha. Nanna phone number **********. Nanna vilasa KTT, Sepang .
Vyanthanagalu.

Cheers,
Gapples!
