Helpless!

You sincerely hope the earth swallows you so that you can escape from the situation that is confronting you.

Somebody gives you a hard time- they are making perfect sense that is!
That is what makes it difficult. They are making perfect sense. And there is nothing you can do about it. You are helpless. You cannot confront the person who made you helpless. So you are in a downright helpless situation. Which is asking too much.

You desperately seek someone who would understand the utterly complex gossamer-feelings-matrix which surrounds you. That person cannot be both human enough and understand at the same time. So there you go - my definition of helpless!!

Irony is a brilliant word

Often life is an irony (Ah, there you go, one of my favourite words from the English language).

When you have sketched a rough draft of life-to-your-liking in your mind and when it happens in reality one fine sunny day (Though in my case a cold evening), you're baffled!!! Can dreams seem so realistic. There you stop to pinch yourself and painfully realise harsh reality. You're pretty confident its a miracle nonetheless. Which is the irony cos, everytime you imagined it, (or in our case, 'sketched' it (am an engineering student you see)), you and i took utmost care to ensure reality circumstances of its happening. But then reality copied a bit too much from the sketch. That is what left you speechless.

The happiness it brings has been relished in our make-believe world. And now you are convinced, you can never be that happy and so the Baah! look. Irony again. So if this is what is happening, it means you are too happy for words.

N I sit here accepting defeat (or rather typing in my defeat), at the fact that "At times happiness can't just be expressed in words" and this blog post is solid proof (or digital proof) for the same.

Agitated yet sane,

Girls night out!

A typical Girls night out includes finding space to place one foot
on a really crowded MTC bus so that you don't have to play
monkey on bars the whole time. Get into the first free
compartment you see in the electric train without giving a damn
on whether its first class compartment. You can always jump
over the partition and provide awesome entertainment to the
onlookers ;) Feast on an umpteen course dinner at 2'o clock in
the night. Have brunch without brushing teeth. N laugh out loud
the whole while.


All this and more cos
A woman should...
be a feminist during her college days,
be career minded and career oriented,
play the game of hide and seek with her suitor,
dare to stay happily unmarried all her life,
love being a woman,
buy flowers for herself,
feel the wind on her face,
go camping, trekking,
be shy, be bold,
trust men occasionally,
give that second chance to everyone,
be a romantic,
get emotionally hyped over nothing and cool down suddenly,
go on a diet, yet, eat chocolates and icecreams,
get high 'n stay high on life, love her man and her reflection,
learn to love herself,
kiss herself goodnight in the mirror,
get wild, tame her tears,
break rules- lead the dances,
drive her man's car,
run his bank account,
manage his business, wear his clothes,
yet know that he's a man and she's the woman,
get flattered,
wear latest fashion and fine diamonds
for no special reason
lay down principles in her life,
go out for window shopping all alone,
know the way to her man's heart,
never forget the little girl within.

Way to go gal,
Anne (pronounced Anne, spelled with an e)

Take Notice

So, when you are in the verge of feeling frustrated, angry, gloomy, cranky, just stop to think.

Is it even worth it? Is it worth that much of your energy? Take it easy!!

I mean, come on now, whatever happens, life has to go on. So do you really really wanna spend the next few days or hours in those good-for-nothing feelings. Give your best shot at everything and sit back, relax and watch what happens. It goes well? There you go! You feel good :) It doesn't? Laugh at it as though it was the funniest play you ever went to. Its just a matter of conversion. Convert your good-for-nothing feelings into those that you can laugh at. Take everything in a light sense. Never let anything rule you. Never let the feelings get the better of you.

Trust in me when I tell you, its a Boggart. Its a sadist taking pleasure in what you don't want to be feeling. And you remember the remedy right? Laugh at it. Its ridikulus!

You still aren't able to arrive at that temperament?

Well do something out of the way...
Like...
Dress up in a way you normally wouldn't approve of
Put up a dumb post in your blog when its least expected of you (like my last one)
Laugh like hell at the stupidest joke you can come up with
SMS the first thing which comes to your mind, without stopping for a 0th review, 1st review...

Behave as if you haven't a care in the world and that you are waiting for THE ULTIMATE thing that can happen in your life. This is the thing you are allowed to show your feelings for, THAT is what really matters. However, you'll never know that you can never identify what that thing is! It is a search where your quest never ends.
Which is good, nonetheless..

Take it easy,
Anne (pronounced Ann, spelled with an e)
