    Not Too Happy?

    Have you ever had this problem when you;ve REALLY needed to pee, but couldn't? Well, I had that issue today. I had to go for an ultrasound (I mentioned that i was having a few "system" issues in a few blogs earlier).. And, it's supposed to be done on a full bladder, hence I did not pee the entire day, from 7:30 to 5.
    And the suckies of things, my bladder STILL wasn't full! YESH!
    And, you know what? I began crying at the doctor's. I feel so pathetic now. But I just broke-down. COMPLETELY. At one point of time, I'm sure I saw her edge away from me. I just couldn't help it. It's all too much for me!
    The past week, I've lost 2 kgs. I want to become skinny. I basically starved myself. Barely ate anything and whatever I ate, I vomited. Grotesque, I know.
    I'm just sick of seeing every "average built" girl become skinny and I, stay the same. I am so sick of it!
    Thankfully, though.. I'm not bulimic. My mother thought that I was bulimic.. Yay? The doctor on the other hand says that it's because I've been working myself up so much over this thing that I couldn't handle it. I still can't.
    I don't want to be UGLY! I want to be considered pwetty ttooo! = (
    I sound SO immature and I feel so stupid, but I'm going crazy with this, completely mad!
    I don't think I'm going to be able to eat for a long time to come.. even if I try..
     
    Help me.

    Romantic Thoughts From A Forgotten Romantic!

    Today, I'm in a very romantic mood.
    I just got off the phone with Swati. She was telling me about Viren carrying her all the way from his room to the entrance of his house 'cause she was too lazy to walk. Now, THAT is romantic, people. Truly romantic. = )
    I was just thinking back.. three months ago, I didn't handle the break0up very well. I just belived the happily ever after SO MUCH, that I couldn't stop myself from thinking that my world was coming to an end.. and it did, for about 2 months.
    When I look back now, I feel really stupid for being like that.. I feel, well.. I really belived I was living a fairy tale that ended. It ended badly.
    I rubbished all the happy memories that I had just because it seemed VERY unreal at the time.
    But now, it seems so.. nice, sweet, happy.
    Those truly were the happiest six months of my life, and the closest I could get to my very own fairy tale.. And it still is. Tjos six months were and ARE the closest i've ever gotten to my own fairy tale.
    And, I'll tell you one other thing.. I couldn't have found a better Prince for my short-lived-fairy-tale. 'Cause it might be weird between Tom and I now, maybe I'm to blame.. 'cause I blamed him too much.
    But, yeah.. he was the perfect Prince Charming. = )
    Right now, I'm listening to this playlist of love songs I'd made agggees ago.. it basically had all the songs that made me feel all romantic, for the past three months.. That playlist was left untouched, but today.. it just seems so romantic, all over again.
    I keep thinking of happy times, those trips to Bangalore.. Hey There Delilah.. And I'm just happy..
    I was so lucky. I truly did find love. And, I'm not going to doubt that anymore. = )
    Those were the best six months of my life, and I was truly happy.
    I've finally acknowledged that what my friends were telling me is true, I have changed.. and you know what? It's not for the better.
    I'm going go back to being the ol'-romantic-softy.
    The Not-Trusting-Anyone thing doesn't really work for me.. Yeesh. I'm ACTually going to be happy now, not act happy with that hprrid fake smile on my face, but I am going to BE happy! Like now.. and hopefully, forever and ever.
    And, hopefully, one day.. I will make my own happily-ever-after! =D
    I'm growing up. Mentally.
    Now, as a grown-up, I want to make things right again.
    Thomas, *if* you're reading this, I'm truly sorry.
    I want to start all over again..
    ALL over again..
    I hope we can.
     
    Update: P&P is back to being my favorite book. =)
    Yay, Mr. Darcy's HOTNESS! =P

    Just Another Brick In The Wall

    Oh well.. My life.. it's a pile of cold and hard poop.
    I'm so bored..
    I'm sick of studying!
    I'm in the 11th, for heaven's sake! I need to STOP studying so much! =|
    I've to deal with it, I've been studying too much, the past few months, studying and reading.
    Well, it's not like I don't have a life or anything, I go out practically EVERYday! =) And, it's fun and all but.. I'm still studying way too much and way to hard, it's not normal for me to study so much, okay? I mean I'm studying way too much for a sixteen (Yus, SIXTEEEENNN, finally!) year ol'. Yesterday, was probably the most entertaining day of the week..
    We had the SCAREWELL '08, which as you already figured was the Farewell for the 12th, with a Horrow theme. *Sigh* It was fun, but the after parrty was MUCH better. A bunch of us went to Casa Piccola, we had an awesome time. Yesterday taught me that Arjun and Booby're somewhat like an old married couple. I guess it happens ever-so-often between friends, when you know them so well, there's always this underlying understanding, which makes anyone on the outside feel left out.. 'cause they just know what the other's thinking..
    I saw my friend cry. When *It's* Mom sent him this very sweet message.. It made me feel so warm inside, that I wanted to talk t'my mommy, whose in Delhi, freezing her ass off! *Love you Mamma! Miss you so very much!*
    Yes, moving on.. right now, I'm supposed to be studying History, but I'm just so. sick. of. studying.
    I'm in the 11th, isn't it bad enough that we have to write board exams in the 10th and 12th? but, NO! We have common exams in the 11th also! For which we get ONLY a Pass or Fail grade, which is the ONLY saving grace. But we have model exams ttooo!
    These model exams are getting me so frustrated, I could destroy a small country with the anger I have pent up insdie me.
    Apart from the *academic* point of view, I'm having guy issues.
    Why?! WHY?! Isn't it bad enough that I'm a dreamer who loves to read? Aren't those distractions enough?!
    Do I have to have "Other" issues, too?!
    Yes, to top it all of, I need to visit a doctor, 'cause I'm having issues with my ssytems. I'll tell you what's wrong with me, because of all the studying and the stress my systems're getting confused and not doing what they're supposed to do on time, you really can't blame them! that doesn not mean I need a freggin' stranger sticking things down my throat and err.. such like. =\
    Anyway, I have a few more days to go..
    I don't want to go to a doctor for certain things, but I do for other reasons.. Like.. why have I been starving myself and why isn't anything changing, or.. WHY AREN'T EVER HUNGRY ANYMORE?!
    Your talking 'bout the girl who loves to eat, now, I seem to be living on a slice of bread or two a day.. and probably some curd at dinner.
    Nothing's right, at the moment.
    So what? So what? I've got a smile on me..
    The only thing I'm happy about is My Birthday resolution, which was to let the past, remain the past, I made peace with a lot of people I was fighting/ lost touch with. Including MANY of my friends From GS.
    *Sigh* *Yawn*
    Oh well, I really don't want to study, and right now, I don't give a damn, if I fail.
    Goo' Night.

    Missing me..

    *Obviously, you’ve gone through a very emotional period, sometime in the past 3 months that’s caused your body to react the way it has*

    ^ I cannot belive she said that.

    What’s wrong with that? It’s true, isn’t it?

    Well, kinda’, but.. I’m not that emotional person anymore, I’m back to being me. Just ME.

    No, your different.

    Most definitely are.. I miss the old Shruti.

    What the HELL’re y’all talking about?! I’m perfectly normal, amn’t I?

    No, your not.. I told you once before, I’ll tell you again, there’s sadness in your eyes.

    Oh, SHUT UP! This is no hindi movie! There is NO such thing. I’m my usual self, annoyingly hyper.

    No, your well, what’s the word I’m looking for? Cynical! It’s like you don’t belive in real life happy endings anymore.

    Well, I don’t.

    Shruti, you need to get out of the imaginary world in your head, I agree. Life is not one of the books you read, I’m the one who told you that, it doesn’t mean that happiness and such don’t exist either.

    Happiness does, I guess.. The other things don’t. It’s only books.. but WHAT is this about, ANYway?!

    You told me the other day, “Don’t think so far into the future, you guys’ll probably break up in another six months”

    Yeah, I said that, so? I meant it! The truth most definitely does hurt.

    Yes, but what happened to the girl who loved to dream?

    She’s standing right in front of you, trying to figure out what wrong with her friends and needs to pee!

    It’s not funny.

    I thought it was, y’all are being STUPID.

    WHY are you so cynical and so.. soo.. sad?

    I’m not sad!

    Fine, your not sad, your not Shrutilaya either.

    Yeah, I’m some stranger impersonating her, and APPARENTLY I’m doing a bad job of it.

    Sarcasm isn’t going to get you anywhere with this conversation.

    Oh, is that what this is? I thought y’all are holding an intervention, to send me to the looneybim, due to what was it? Err.. *sadness* in my eyes. Ridiculous!

    We’re just worried. You and *cough* :it: broke up a few months ago. How long will it take you to get over it?!

    I’m over it. You know that? It took me 9 weeks, but y’all know that I’m ME again.

    No, your not, that’s troubling us.

    Laya, I take back what I said, go back to your imaginary world, it makes you happy!

    Look, I know the difference between dreams and reality.. I just got carried away once, and I don’t want that to happen.

    You’re too young to be so cynical and stupid.

    I am not stupid. I’m a lot of things, stupid isn’t one of them. So what? I do not want the November episode to happen again! So, I’m doing whatever it takes to stop that from happening. I’ll probably end up an old miserable lady, with 18 dogs in a one bedroom apartment. So?

    Shrutilaya, my friend, the girl with her heads in the clouds, yet grounded, what’s happening to you?

    Nothing. I just learnt a lesson, that’s all.

    Your just saying that now, that right person for you will come along one day and if your never going to let that person in, you’ll lose him.

    First things first, you need to read more books, IF we’re meant to be, we’ll get past everything. And second, that “One person out there for everyone” theory is just bull shit. If it were true, Gorgeous George Cluny wouldn’t be single.

    Listen to us, think about it. Please?

    Okay..

     

    Every word of it was so true. I don’t know what to do.. I hope everything sorts itself out like always. But for now, I wish.

    ..that conversation never happened.

     

    *wishes*
