Task For Today…
Posted on May 28, 2010Oukeh..so how much time can it take for a girl to select a lip gloss for herself. Lip Gloss, you know, the shiny sticky thing they put on their lips that makes most of them look like baboons! Yes, I am a girl, but believe me or not i have never and when I say never, I mean NEVER, bought any such things. The ones that I have used are either my mum’s or my sister in law’s stuff.
So today I was given the ‘task’ to buy it for myself. Generally such tasks are given to girls who are growing up and need to buy undergarments for themselves( it is kinda embarrassing to enter that shop and tell your size!). To make them independent and all. Well, coming back to the today’s ‘Task’.
So again, how much time can a girl take? 10min? 15min?
Huh! it took me 35min! Yes, not exaggerating even one more minute.
“What shade madam?
“which company madam?”
“ma’am we have one more shade, that might suit you”
Ggrrhhh…Get me anything that looks like a shimmer YOU IDIOT! My conscience was shouting at it’s highest level. How can some one stand at one shop for so long? Then I came up with an idea.. and I reacted so loud that the shopkeeper looked at me as if he saw a bulb light up on my head.
“Seher, sweetheart it’s urgent. will you just come to this market RIGHT NOW?”
5min and Seher and Aahna( Remember them? My childhood devils!) were here. That’s it! I was literally standing like a little child in the middle and they took care of it all. Such good gals I tell you! All it took was next 5min and I was allowed to run out of the scary, freaky place.
( By the way….I prefer the undergarment shop!)
Getting bored Means…Fun!!!
Posted on May 16, 2010Sometimes it is so much fun eavesdropping on people’s conversation. Especially when you are all alone in a crowded market. Well, the theme is quite clear for the day!!!!
Sitting in the market outside an ice-cream parlor waiting for Seher (my health guru!..remember!) to come back from her date , I had nothing to do except look around here and there and ignore dumb bidi wale men staring me. So then I decided do some mental exercise of focus. The focus was on two groups. One of 3 gals gossiping their way to glory and the other was Sharma aunty and her brigade, who engaged in many social activities. ( BTW Sharma aunty’s son is HOTTT!) anyways…so from a minutes introspection and focus it was clear that the GG (girl’s group) was discussing their office life and the AG (aunty’s group) where discussing some Oriflame product.
However, the conversation of the GG seemed more interesting.
“Oh I simply go breathless when I see my boss” A girl was narrating her encounter and simply huge crush over her boss.
“He has such a cute and smart way of talking. OMG!, and I think he knows I have a crush on him” she continued trying to gulp in the last ice cream bite at once.
” what will I do if he knows already that I die to talk to him?”
Shuh…I don’t believe this. This girl has a crush on her boss and she does not have the guts to tell him? What is the big deal about liking some one?There are people in your life who impress you with the way they talk and carry them. So it’s quite natural to fall for them. Now if the boss is married or has a girl friend then, this might be troublesome.
But any ways as i again tried to listen to her saga, they had somehow found out that an absentminded girl is ogling at them absentmindedly. So they shifted and went to the other side. I turned around to the AG, but they had also left. Gggrrhhh…stupid moron Seher
“Cursing me?” came the divine voice..and Seher was standing next to me
I told her about that girls conversation and that the girl was such a coward about her thoughts and then her reply as usual shut me up
“LOOK WHOS TALKING!!!” Seher teased me and i decided to change the topic otherwise she would notice me blush.
