SOMETIMES

Sometimes I’m up

Sometimes I'm down

Sometimes I smile

Sometimes I frown

Sometimes I feel alive

Sometimes I feel dead

Sometimes my heart hurts

Sometimes it's all in my head

Sometimes I feel lonely

Sometimes I need my space

Sometimes there are no problems

Sometimes I've got too much to face

Sometimes things go right

Sometimes things go wrong

Sometimes I fit right in

Sometimes I just don't belong

Sometimes I win

Sometimes I lose

Sometimes I'm free

Sometimes I'm screwed

Sometimes I'm happy

Sometimes I'm sad

Sometimes I'm scared

Sometimes I'm mad

Sometimes I want to laugh

Sometimes I want to cry

Sometimes I want to live

Sometimes I want to die

Sometimes I want to sing

Sometimes I want to shout

Sometimes I know the answer

Sometimes I'm in doubt

Sometimes I make decisions

Sometimes I'm told what to do

Sometimes I find life hard

Sometimes so do you…

Gossip Girl Stars Ed Westwick & Leighton Meester Unveil Siam Center Mall in Bangkok

Priya and Lavina

MissMalini readers Priya and Lavina had the opportunity to see Ed Westwickand Leighton Meester while the stars were in Bangkok for an event, and are now sharing their experience with you guys!

Ed Westwick

The New Year isn’t about what happened, it’s about what’s to come and 2013 started off with our favorite UES couple reuniting in Bangkok for the re-opening of the Siam Center mall.
It all started when my celeb obsessed friend, Lavina, messages me at work to ask if I would like to go and see them, and being a huge gossip girl fan, I said “yes” without thinking twice. After all, it isn’t everyday that Queen B and Motherchucker come to town.
So we both head towards the mall after work and see hundreds of fans at the venue eagerly awaiting for a glimpse of Ed & Leighton. Many had been waiting since hours in the hope of securing a good spot to catch their favorite stars, we were told.

Ed Westwick and Leighton Meester

As luck would have it, we unfortunately got separated in the process of trying to get a good vantage point to see Ed & Leighton or better known as “Chuck & Blair.” I ended up standing on the side where the red carpet was,while Lavina managed to get a place somewhat near the mini stage.

Leighton Meester

Few moments later a group of Thai Celebrities walked the red carpet and gave an interview and also a little performance much to the delight of the local fans. Next, the stars of the night,our very own “Mr. & Mrs. Bass,” walked in causing the crowd to go wild!

Ed Westwick and Leighton Meester

During the brief interview session they were asked on what they thought of Bangkok, to which they both responded saying that they loved it. It was Ed’s first time in Bangkok while Leighton had previously vacationed here with family. They were also asked to comment on their thoughts regarding the new mall and then proceeded to a photo taking session with other local celebs, socialites and the mall owners.
Later, they were given a private tour of the mall with access to the escalators being blocked in order to prevent chaos from getting to them. No wonder they say, life ain’t fair!

Waiting for Ed & Leighton

So we came up with a brilliant idea and decided to go and wait for them at their hotel which was adjacent to the mall. After all, chahey jahaan bhi jaayen, akhir wapas hotel hi aana hai. :) We waited for awhile and were chatting with other fans there about the stars, when a hotel staff came and informed us that both Ed & Leighton have already come back to the hotel using another entrance and will most probably not be going anywhere else since they have an early morning flight to catch.

Taio Cruz

After debating for a few minutes we agreed that better than waiting around would be to go check out hot R&B star Taio Cruz. Hence, we ran back to the mall and made it in time to attend a mini but awesome concert by the British dynamite. And boy did he break our hearts, but in a good way. ;)
And like all good things, this day too came to an end. Till next time, xoxo – we hope you love us ;)

SHAGGY - by Nitesh & Lavina

Dear Shaggy,

No words I write can ever say,

how much I miss u every day.

I think of u when I'm alone.

I often say your name,

but all I have are memories

and a photo in a frame.

No one knows my sorrow,

how much I miss u....nobody knows.

There's a place in my heart that no one else can fill,

I <3 U...and I always will!

Mama

Mommy taught me not to lie,

I said everyone does it, don’t deny.

Mommy told me not to cheat,

I thought it’s ok if we’re discreet.

Mommy warned me not to drink,

I laughed it off without a blink.

She even wanted me to be wise,

I smiled and told her ever so nice that girls like me don’t need advice.

Regarding boys she let me know,

They come and go like X’mas toys.

There are plenty of them I remember her say,

And none worth my tears come what may.

I didn’t know she’d be so right,

I thought her old and short of sight.

But looking back I now realize,

How foolish of me for not thinking twice.

I’ve made mistakes and have regrets

But she stood by me like a rock in sand.

So on this day I want her to know,

She means the world to me and a lot more.

She’s the good in me, the source of my strength. 

And to her I owe my life till the end.

I might not say this as often as I should,

But I love you Mom and thank you for being U!

xoxo, Lavi ;)

Pizza, A Party and A Moonlight Ride

 Jenny was so happy about the house they had found.

For once in her life it was the right side of town.

She unpacked her things with such great ease

As she watched her new curtains blow in the breeze.

How wonderful it was to have her own room.

School would be starting, she'd have friends soon.

There'd be sleep-overs, and parties, she was so happy.

It's just the way she wanted her life to be.

On the first day of school, everything went great,

She made new friends and even got a date!

She thought "I want to be popular and I'm going to be,

Because I just got a date with the star of the team!"

To be known in this school you had to have a clout

And dating this guy would sure help her out.

There was only one problem stopping her fate.

Her parents had said she was too young to date.

"Well, I just won't tell them the entire truth.

They won't know the difference, what's there to lose?"

Jenny asked to stay with her friends that night.

Her parents frowned but said "All right."

Excited, she got ready for the big event,

But as she rushed around like she had no sense.

She began to feel guilty about all the lies,

But what's a pizza, a party, and a moonlight ride?

Well, the pizza was good, and the party was great,

But the moonlight ride would have to wait.

For Jeff was half drunk by this time,

But he kissed her and said that he was just fine.

Then the room filled with smoke and Jeff took a puff.

Jenny couldn't believe he was smoking that stuff.

Now Jeff was ready to ride to the point,

But only after he'd smoked another joint.

They jumped in the car for the moonlight ride,

Not thinking that he was too drunk to drive.

They finally made it to the point at last,

And Jeff started trying to make a pass.

A pass is not what Jenny wanted at all,

(And by a pass, I don't mean playing football).

"Perhaps my parents were right... maybe I am too young.

Boy, how could I ever, ever be so dumb."

With all of her might, she pushed Jeff away.

"Please take me home, I don't want to stay."

Jeff cranked up the engine and floored the gas,

In a matter of seconds they were going too fast.

As Jeff drove on in a fit of wild anger,

Jenny knew that her life was in danger.

She begged and pleaded for him to slow down,

But he just got faster as they neared the town.

"Just let me get home! I'll confess that I lied.

I really went out for a moonlight ride."

Then all of a sudden, she saw a big flash.

"Oh God, please help us! We're going to crash!"

She doesn't remember the force of impact.

Just that everything all of a sudden went black.

She felt someone remove her from the twisted rubble,

And heard "Call an ambulance! These kids are in trouble!"

Voices she heard... a few words at best,

But she knew there were two cars involved in the wreck.

Then wondered to herself if Jeff was all right,

And if the people in the other car were alive.

She awoke in the hospital to faces so sad,

"You've been in a wreck and it looks pretty bad."

These voices echoed inside her head

As they gently told her that Jeff was dead.

They said "Jenny, we've done all we can do,

But it looks as if we'll lose you, too."

"But the people in the other car!?" Jenny cried.

"We're sorry, Jenny, they also died."

Jenny prayed, "God, forgive me for what I've done.

I only wanted to have just one night of fun."

"Tell those people's family, I've made their lives dim,

And wish I could return their families to them."

"Tell Mom and Dad I'm sorry I lied,

And that it's my fault so many have died.

Oh, nurse, won't you please tell them that for me?"

The nurse just stood there, she never agreed.

But took Jenny's hand with tears in her eyes

And a few moments later Jenny died.

A man asked the nurse, "Why didn't you do your best

To bid that girl, her one last request?"

She looked at the man with eyes so sad,

"Because the people in the other car were her Mom and Dad."

This story is sad and unpleasant, but true,

So young people take heed, it could have been you.
