Hit Me Baby One More Time!
"Di, has it hit you that you're getting engaged?" asked my cute little sister, "I mean how do you feel?"
And that's when I thought... Oh My God! I'm getting engaged..it's like filling up an application form for a long term commitment course. Duration of the course=FOREVER! I just did a whole rewind in my life and thought of all the possible things I could..
The first time I went to school. My Kindergarden days.. where they would take us swimming every Sunday and put us on that huge slide which would land in the 6ft deep pool...I remember how I assaulted a girl because she pushed me down that slide when I was not ready and my hairband landed on the floor of the pool..obviously I was too tiny and scared of performing underwater stunts to collect my band so with the help of my arm floats managed to climb out of that pool ,ran to the girl and pulled her hair and pushed her...Yup, I was punished that day, they didn't allow me to swim for the rest of the day and even confiscated my hairband till I apologised..:) I so clearly remember when my swimming instructor called me to confront my victim and asked me, "What should you say to her?" and I brimming with attitude replied,"I hate you!" :D
My High School days..always in trouble for all the wrong reasons..well what I can say..I was one of those right people at the wrong time in the wrong situation. Most of my detentions were courtesy my classmates. I really don't remember scheming those mass bunking sessions, the "let's not study for an assessment today and we shall all tell her to postpone it" moments! Those never happened,by the way. Remember, Ogling at those "New kid on the Block" posters in Smash Hits. The way this one classmate of ours found a "dirty" book and has folded all the pages from the bottom where the steamy scenes were mentioned and how it was circulated in class..only when it was my time to read it, my dad caught me..and guess what.. I didnt even begin reading that stupid book. The first time when I received a call from a guy in my class at home...oh my god...my heart was beating as if Sivamani was performing live!
My first day in University..I was shit nervous, when I entered the bus, I didn't look left or right and sat at the first vacant seat I saw, only to know that half the bus was filled with my classmates from school. But university was something I never really enjoyed the way I was supposed to as I started working, so it was work in the morning and uni in the evening till 10 in the night...
And then my relationships with various people I encountered, the good, the bad, the ugly and the ugliest!
Good are people I can count on my fingers and the category "ugliest" has many contenders!
And of all the ordeals and the happy moments in my life, here comes a turning point..Marraige.
It's hitting me slowly, but I guess it'll hit me big time on the D-Day! Till then, I'm going with the flow!
It's a different feeling people...it sure is!
