NEW DELHI : At least 50 people were killed on Saturday in serial blasts throughout New Delhi, India's home minister and senior government officials said.
Thirty-seven bodies had been brought into one hospital, federal home minister Shivraj Patil was quoted as saying by the Press Trust of India news agency.
Federal health secretary Prasanna Hota said 13 bodies had been brought into three other hospitals in New Delhi. About 70 others, including some foreigners, had been injured in the blasts, PTI said.
Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh blamed "terrorist elements" for the serial blasts which targeted "innocent citizens".
The explosions ripped through crowded market areas in New Delhi moments apart, as shoppers in the Indian capital were gearing up for a major Hindu holiday. More than 60 people were reported injured by the blasts, which hit the popular Paharganj bazaar area popular with locals and Western budget tourists as well as the Gole and Sarojini Nagar markets.
Police commissioner K.K Paul said detectives were looking at the possibility that the blasts were the work of militants but had no further immediate details about the cause. "We have seen badly-burned bodies littering the market in Sarojini Nagar," a photographer on the scene said, adding that a fierce blaze had engulfed much of the area. "Most of them are children who had set up food stalls."
The blasts occurred in rapid succession early Saturday evening in heavily crowded areas where tens of thousands of shoppers were preparing for Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights that starts Tuesday.
The first blast occurred at 5:40pm (1210 GMT) in an area frequented by budget tourists in Paharganj, a middle-class shopping area near Delhi's main railway station, where seven people died, the news agency said.
Minutes later another explosion occurred at Sarojini Nagar market in south Delhi where nine people died, PTI said. Another explosion occurred in a bus near the industrial area of Okhla, police said. A fourth blast in Gole Market could have been caused by firecrackers, witnesses said. "We received a total of four (blast) calls but one was a hoax," New Delhi fire department spokesman Satya Prakash told AFP. "In the remaining three, our fire trucks are working to bring out people who are injured as well as the bodies," he said. "From the feedback we are getting from our trucks, the situation is grisly."
Ambulances and fire trucks raced back and forth through the city as police reinforcements cordoned off the blast sites, where shops had been torn apart from the force of the explosions, leaving piles of wreckage in the streets. . .

How would you feel? Irritating lar... And not only the sec 2s.. there were sec 1s too falling asleep... :S I know it was really, really hard to be still as it was... well, really boring, but at least think about the teacher in front there trying to share lar! I admit that i myself couldn't really concentrate cause it really wasn't THAT interesting... but at least i tried to listen or pay attention...... Haix... i really don't know what's wrong with people nowadays... forget it... Maybe i shouldn't comment so much. Tuesday, tuesday... HAi... not looking forward to it... another... not so interesting day.... i want to skip school!!! but i cant... there practice tomorrow... :S...Oh! and there's Christmas service tomorrow! yay! heh.

Jazz concert wasn't jazzy at all! It was really all about classical stuff...
but i really loved the part when the pianist played... Gosh... it was SUPERB! looking at how fast his fingers was and without any errors, i suddenly felt guilty for not practising the piano frequently... Now, when i play the piano, it sounds like a limbing(limping? hehe... sp.) person... gahhh...
alright, yesterday, everybody looked really different. Haha... and about 3/4 of us wore jeans... Joyce accompanied me to the Esplanade library at about 5 plus 6 and it was a really, really great place to study or read or... whatever. Really different from the library in Toa Payoh. Heh. and there were SO MANY music books!!!! haha... i wanted to borrow so many! but i didn't. I only borrowed 1... Nvm... can go there another time :D
As i didn't eat dinner before i went out, and didn't have time to buy bread on my way, i was actually starving and thought i was going to faint... so once i got home(which was 2230), i ate two pieces of bread with milk... which was like my breakfast... hahaha... after that, i felt so full that i couldn't sleep! so i stayed up till 2400 before i went to sleep....
Hai... shouldn't have eaten so late... i was so afraid that i would grow fat that i only ate one egg for lunch and a banana for dinner today... :S ok... at least i had a good breakfast... hehehe...
Went shopping with my mom and sis today and as it was on sale, we bought quite a few pieces of winter clothings, skirt.... can't remember what else... hmm... i actually wanted to buy a pair of sandals... but i thought that, well, i've spent much money already and i should control myself.. so i didn't buy it! haha... and anyway, it's going to be my birthday soon and i can go shop, shop, shop again! haha... and maybe at that time would have sales or something... :D

The background of the class photo looks fake.
It IS fake... and it looks weird.... except the Candid one, it looks more realistic, more natural... heh
today, almost EVERYBODY asked the same questions " Are you going tonight?" and after i say "yes" they would ask, "what are you going to wear".... :S I can almost predict what people would ask me when they come to me... as in... those who hardly speak to me... OK... i admit that i was also alittle influenced and started asking also... haha... but that was because i was afraid that i would be the only one wearing skirt which is.... Hmm... not likely.. heh..
Rachel... well, she'd FINALLY made up her mind about what she was going to wear... thank goodness................... or else, she might be messaging me now... whining about how formal her dressing would be.......
ok... i know it's not right to... complain about people especially behind their backs.. but... ...
ok... no but s... i shall not complain anymore.
There was this Chinese Activities thingy this morning and some student came from Lee Wei Song Music School to xuan1 chuan2 about the singing/composing/ whatever competition held by the NUS and one of the student sang YiDa's song... haha... i was so afraid that he'd sound worst... hahaha... but he sounds much, MUCH better than Yida... hahaha... he was really good lar.. and it was really rude of the other girls to laugh when he had to sing a higher pitch for the second song... although, his voice wasn't really strong and powerful and he sang like his voice might break but... overall, he was ok lar....
the keyboardist was.... SUPERB! GAH! I wanna learn how to play the keyboard! He was so fluent lar... hahaha... (i sound like i've never heard ppl played that way before... but i have.)
Talking about Musical Instruments, the author of 7-eleven Kuang2 xiang3 qu3 came to our school.. and i think... THINK she's one of the lao3 shi1's daughter... i mean, i heard Doreen say that she IS one of the teacher's daughter... but, it seems like she's the HOD's daughter... and besides talking about her book, she also sang the song she composed herself. It was really nice. Her voice is really different from what i thought her voice would be like... oh! and she played the guitar! haix.... now i also want to learn to play the guitar! Anybody wanna teach me? :D
Alright, alright, i shall go and bathe now...

gosh... i thought i got a C for Chinese... which is... really embarrassing... and disappointing... but... oh well, at least i got a B... haix... but i'm supposed to get an A!!!
Ok... whatever... don't want to think about Exams anymore... at least my average mark has improved alot since mid year...
There's this Jazz concert tomorrow at Esplanade and it's COMPULSORY for the whole level plus the Sec twos.... :S and since Mrs Pandian said it's compulsory, Rachel has been whining and whining about what to wear... !!!!!! I thought i was going to die of her whinings... she keeps repeating"what should i wear... what should i wear..." and at first, i said, "Wear whatever you want to"... after a few "what should i wear"s, i said, "wear whatever you think it's comfortable lar!" then she told me about her skirts... then her tops... then kept asking me what to wear... when i don't even know what clothes are there in her wardrobe.
Ha, now i'm so glad i bought that white skirt! hehehe... can wear it tomorrow.
Hmm... have been going to the library almost everyday this week except today because i always had a book to return, then borrow another one. However, to save my time from going to the library (actually, i don't mind going to the library everyday... ), i borrowed 3 books at a time. You must think i'm stupid for not doing that... but, oh well, i enjoy walking to the library, then walking to the MRT station, then look at those stuff selling along the way i was walking pass.... I don't know why, but i don't like going home... ...
hmm... ok, i shall go read the book i had borrowed now!

Got back most of our exam scripts today.. Now i'm only left with not knowing the results of Chinese, Geography and Maths... manx... it's really been a rollercoaster ride of emotions today... now i really don't know what to feel... happy because i've improved in quite a few exams? or sad because i didn't score well and did worse than mid-year? Hmm... i should be happy... well, up till now, my lowest is only a B3.. gahh... i just hope that i didn't fail Geog, although i know that i'd likely fail Geography.... but.................. hai... still don't fail lar... it'd pull my overall average mark down.
Now i really can't wait for the holidays... School has really been quite boring... there's hardly anything to do... but, thank God, i've borrowed books from the library... if not, i might be writing dumb letters to people when there's nothing to do. or maybe stare into dra-dra land (haha... my own land :P... )
alright, i shall not crap too much.

And thinking bout going to the CLDDS practice later makes me even more tired...ZZzzz....
I know, that i shouldn't complain so much and try to change my mindset and become positive about having practice every afternoon in the week till next week. But, i'm just tired. Mentally. I really want to just rest my mind and not to think about what i'm supposed to say, act and stuff like that... and i'm physically tired! I don't know why... since i have slept at 2230 yesterday, i should feel quite AWAKE but i'm not. I'm just feeling lethargic... ... *whines* i don't want to stay back! (but i am already..)
OK... i shall not complain and think about the
HAPPY things... like... my birthday coming....... (hint hint! hehe) or... China trip... or CHRISTMAS!
Umm... ok... those are happening in like... one month's time... :S
Ehh... what about................ i don't know... getting back report books? GAHH... OH!!! I know...HOLIDAYS! when i can really sleep and eat and read and play computer and rot..!woohoo! (haha... zi4 HIGH)

I'm now home alone! My parents and sis have gone to swim and as i couldn't swim because of some reason, so i decided to stay at home! Hmm.... i wonder what i should do... read? Watch tv? Sms (who?)? lala... i don't really have any idea of doing anything... ...Went to the China trip briefing this morning held in School's LT 1... haha... it's got me even more excited for the trip! but it's still like... 1 month away............ and holidays have not started yet! Hmm... this coming week is going to be quite a busy week (i think). Going to have CLDD practise from Monday to next Tuesday (except Wednesday and Weekends)... Cause we're going to perform on the 27th October. Gahhh... i'm starting to feel nervous....... :S *breathes in* *breathes out* And we're going to get back our exams scripts soon... :/... hope i did really, really well... If i didn't........................ i don't know what i'd do to myself... maybe i'd become nerdy and keep studying everyday? I don't know... i don't want to get low marks... or FAIL! :S i must at least get.... a B3! Umm.... maybe except for Geography? heh....Blah... i shall stop thinking bout Exams... Going SHOPPING with my mum tomorrow for Christmas gifts!! YAY! Haha... weird right? Shopping for Christmas so early??? Yes, of course! We're already quite late this year... my mum bought presents for my two younger cousins in JULY last year! haha... And i'm really glad to spend some time with my mum shopping. We haven't really gone shopping for a really long time....... Although we just bought three tops last week......................... But, we haven't really gone around the WHOLE of Orchard or Singapore to just look around or buy stuff... so i'm really excited! hehe.... to Buy, buy, BUY! :D

hmm... just came back from school from studying.... i've finished revising all the chapters for Geog except for map reading and chapter 7&8 of Chemistry and chapter 20 and 22 of Bio... i feel so proud of myself.. hahaa.... but compared to ppl like CLAIRE and ZOE and STEPHANIE, i'm really, really far behind... Claire's already started on revising Chinese! :S

Exams are going to start tomorrow and i can't wait!!! hahaha... i can't wait to get over and done with it!

ok... shall go and start revising on Map reading....
Happy studying! (to those who are having exams/studying :D)
