Firsts!!

How are the first few days of meeting a guy? Going out with him? Falling in love? It’s a beautiful feeling right? Well I think it’s a wonderful feeling. The whole idea of being present in that same place where he is every day may sound tiring, but eventually pays off. It’s also the most awesomest feeling if the guy reciprocates to your feelings.

The very early stage of a relationship is when we have butterflies in our stomachs, when you want to grasp everything he says about himself, where you want to spend every free minute with him. It’s also the stage where you figure out his work stress, hours and understand his work. The stage when you have to impress his friends just so they like you and put in a good word for you. You deal with anxiety, butterflies, sleepless nights, sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach. What’s worst is when you don’t know how the other person feels about you. Sometimes when there is a guy it’s like either your time investment did do you some good or sometimes it didn’t. When it doesn’t, it’s the most depressing feeling of all. When it does, you invested right! It’s like you want to careful of what you say or how you dress or how you drunk you can get. But on the other hand, you want him to see you as you, when you say something stupid or in your dirty rags or even slip and fall. You want him to know all your good points, your strong points, your habits, your traits; everything that describes you. Thinking about all this its actually gives me stress. You have to make the perfect first impression. This is also the time where you get to see his good points, traits and don’t wish for anything that puts you off.

Right now I’m in a similar stage and trust me I’m losing sleep over it. LOL! No really I’ve not slept in two nights. Maybe it’s the vibe someone’s giving out to the universe. Maybe its life trying to tell me there is going to b e a change. Whatever it is, I’ve got butterflies in my stomach 24x7 and it’s a weird feeling.

Romantic Novels


So of late I've started reading a lot of romantic novels, and I love the feeling of being in love. Doesn't mean I am in Love... but the whole idea of being in love intrigues me. There are so many authors- Milly Johnson, Nicholas Sparks(My fav), Cecilia Ahern, Sandra Brown, Barbra Taylor Bradford, James Patterson, Judith McNaught, Jackie Collins and many more that I cant seem to recall. Reading is a habit that has been instilled in me since I was a child. Everynight before sleeping I read for half an hour, sometimes I go to a coffee shop just to read my book in peace.

Every story is different from the other and I fall more in love with love. I cant believe I'm saying this but I actually believe in these stories. I feel these stories happen for real. I know that right now while I'm writing this my true love is out there somewhere waiting for me. To be honest I was always taught never to expect, never to believe in best friends, etc. But the books have changed me. I have started expecting to meet my true love at the most random places, I do have best friends and I believe in them.

Anywhere I go, I keep my eye open, what if I meet him at a supermarket, at a party, a bar, a coffee shop, at a doctors clinic... anywhere!!! So anyways when I'm reading these novels I'm in a complete different world, I'm not me. I visualize every scene from the book into real life...sometimes my life. Sounds like I'm mad right?? But trust me I'm not the only one who does this!! I'm a major closet Romantic, I'd rather watch a Romantic movie than a scary one... Trust me I love both the genres. Reading whisks me away from my life, my fears, my worries, my tension.

I could on writing about romance and reading, but I would conclude by saying 'My true Love, please turn out to be what I expected you to be' :)

My First Guy


Arranged Marriages are gaining popularity again in India and its a good thing. I feel its best to get married to someone your parents approve of. But don't do it forcefully or without your will. If you love someone and plan to get married, then a love marriage is your best option. But for a person like me, I feel arranged is the best. I'm only saying this because I've been single for as long as I can remember. I'm 24 this year and have a good career going for myself. I know what I wanna do and I am proceeding towards my Goal. But I miss having that one special person to share this with. For how long am I going to keep making plans with my friends and their respective partners. I miss having a "Him" around, I want a him around when I've had a good day at work, I want a him around when i've worked out that extra mile just to lose wtg fast, I want a him around when I am PMSing, I want a him around when I've fought with my mum, I want a him around to go for movies and dinners with, I want a him around who I can be proud of, of every achievement in his life. Thats when I realised I am ok to look for guys my parents find me.

So very recently I went to a guys house with my parents. I was super nervous, I dint know what to do or say. It was my first time seeing guys. We reached his place, met his mum and he came. I had this smile on my face and said hi to him. We all sat down. His brother started asking me where I study and what I do. At that point somewhere in my head I had a sudden question. Will he ask me to sing??? Cuz i suck at it. I was praying he would rather ask if I know how to cook, cause i knew. Just then the guy says shall we go... and I was a little taken aback because as per the Hindi movies its an elder of the family who says why dont the two of you go inside and chat. Anyways so I went in, to his room, something I dint approve off. I feel someone's room is their own personal space, why let other people in. But anyways we got to talking and somehow I calmed down. We had a good conversation(Something I dig). We chatted for a while, his brother and sister-in-law came in and sat with us. Me parents and me left his place. I was satisfied. Once we were down my mum says what do you think... I said Ma its too soon for me to say anything, but yes I would like to meet him again to get to know him better.

But after a while I kept getting this feeling that I'm not the only girl he's seeing. I dont blame him, he's 28, he has to keep his options open.

Point being, I now know what to talk when I go see guys... My dad says I've opened my account of seeing boys!! LOL

Here's wishing me luck that I find my 'Him' soon!! :)

Time N Tide Wait For No One!!

I was just reading my mails that were written last year and man have things changed. There were mails about a guy and how nice he was and how I would never call him an assole or a bastard. Well, guess what I’m doing that now. LOL! There were mails between me and a friend and how he would never change and love me just the same; well he’s changed and I don’t know where the love is. There were mails where I was complaining about a friend and how the boyfriend was only imp for her. Well, right now the bf is still there, but our bond has become closer than ever. There were mails where my sister bitched to me about living so far and wanting to come home and how she hated being single. Well, now she is happily dating and not a word about coming back home (for good). Of course she misses home a hell lot.

I guess time changes a lot of things around us. It’s like the saying ‘we grow with time’, it’s so true. Last year at this time I was un-employed, happy, bored, content with life and almost with someone. A year later, I’m employed; don’t know about happy; so not bored, content yes and very much single! I have become quite mature and live healthy. Time as they say, heals all. We let time decide what’s in store for us and we also let time tell us where we stand in life. When things go wrong, we say the time is not right; when things go right others say ‘every dog has his day!’

One thing I have learnt is never regret anything you do, because it’s a waste of time and gets you no-where. If there is something you want to do or say to someone, do that right away because we don’t know what time can do to us, it’s now or never. I live by this last sentence. Does not mean I have done the right things, I have made decisions in haste, screwed up and hurt my self, but at least I saved my self the regret about not doing it. When I went to get my nose pierced, I was too scared and walked out of there but my mum said ‘It’s now or never’ I said, “F**k this shit! I am going back in”. That was a right decision because the nose pin looks nice on me. When I met a guy, he told me he’s leaving town in a month. I took a hasty decision about spending all my time with him, well I got hurt and maybe deep down feel I made the wrong choice, but I don’t regret a single moment spent with him cause he was nice, different and a breath of fresh air when I was claustrophobic.

All I’m saying is don’t waste your time in crying over a guy who left you, or fighting with friends, or feeling bad when people leave because you will never get that time back. Live life to the fullest and always love and respect your parents and elders cause you never know what time has in store for you!

Frustrating Emotions

I am so sick and tired of seeing you in my dreams,
Every night I see you there,
Sitting next to me, waiting to hold my hand,
But just when I am about to grab hold of you; I wake up!

I am so sick and tired of being your punching bag,
Every time you want to talk,
You turn to me and cry,
But when I need you to be my punching bag; you hang up!

I am so sick and tired of being a joke for you,
Every time you want to de-stress,
You make fun of me in front of everyone,
But when I try to retort you say you were pulling my leg!

I am so sick and tired of being alone,
Every time I think of it,
It makes me cry,
But when I try to move on; I’m back to square one!

I am so sick and tired of feeling this way,
Every time I want to change it,
Some thing goes wrong,
And I am back to feeling frustrated!!!

Something is not right..!! :-(

There is something not right in my life, and I don’t know what it is. My b’day was on the 21st of Septmeber and man was I depressed. I dint feel right… I dint want to celebrate, I dint want to talk to anyone. At 12 in the night, my friends came home with cake and wished me… I slept at 3:00am. I woke up to an empty house, becuz my parents were out of town and my younger sister had gone to college. The only person at home was my grandma and I had to tell her it was my b’day. She has been unwell and does not hear much, all she did was smile. I went on Facebook and saw my wall posts… I missed my older sister. I went to work, everyone wished me, my boss msgd that lunch was on her, we called for pizzas and cake. One of my client wished me and I had to tell the other one. In the afternoon I started feeling sad again. Then my parents called saying dinner in the night with them was not a good idea, so I thought since the next day was a holiday, I should take some friends out to drink. I set my plans for the night. My mom called in the evening just an hour before I leave work saying please come to a relative’s house as I needed to offer my condolences. I dint want to go becuz a) it was depressing and b) I was wearing a dress. I asked her what were they doing after, she said they had to stay back, when I asked her what about my cake which my baby sister had baked so lovingly, she said we’ll do it later. And later I had to go out, so I had an argument with her, saying its my b’day and I want to see her. Well eventually I had to do what mom says, but they come to drop me home and cut my cake. I left immediately to go out taking my younger sister along. We went to my club, had alcohol and suddenly it was time to shut down. We then clicked lots of pictures, left from there and went to the church. When I was there I met my boss and she thought I would be getting hammered somewhere but was happy to see me there. We left, went for a drive to town and then back again. My b’’day was over.
The only highlight of my day was when my older sister Chaitri called from US and sang to me over the phone, when I went to the bank to withdraw some cash and the screen flashed a happy b’day and when my younger sister Avni baked a cake for me. The only gift I got was a bag and a bouquet.

In spite of so much…. I was still depressed. I don’t know why. I wanted to cry all day long and was not at all excited about my b’day. I still don’t understand!!! Any suggestions???

It's Been A While!


Hey,

It’s been a very long time since I blogged and man I missed it!

Reasons:

1. I’ve been so stressed with work lately that I’ve not had time to breathe.
2. My best friend was here in town for a month
3. Work Load has increased
4. Missing a certain someone so much, the pain is physically unbearable now.
5. And other women problems (You know what I mean right!)

Work is going to be an on going thing, it’s going to be like this as always, but I just need to balance it out well. My friend told me I need to leave work at office and come out with them, I should be back to the same quirky and cheerful person I was.

Mithil Patel is my best friend and I love him for life, he’s like this immature, lost puppy in life and I love being with him, becuz its de-stressing. I can talk about anything under the sun with him and he still won’t listen to me, LOL! No but seriously he’s the best friend any girl can have, he gives me everything of the exact amount, not too much not too less, just PERFECT! And that’s what I like best about him. But that does not mean he is mature, he still needs help with a lot of things in life. Lol!

Work load has increased. From one client I now have 2 and technically 3, but I like it now. It’s all going in the right direction. But work and stress go hand in hand. Like I wrote earlier it needs to be balanced well.

Sometimes in life when everything is going well, from work to family to friends, you still want that special someone. I had someone who was almost perfect for me just sometime back. But life is never fair and now he’s gone and I miss him like crazy. All I wish is to see him, talk to him, hug him ONCE! But I guess this is not what God has in store for me.

Woman problems are what every girl goes through, so no comments on that! Lol

This is me for now! Let’s hope I have something better to write next time.
Till then, keep following and reading my blog!! Chao!!
