Okay so here goes my promised blog entry. No not about the trek. I need pictures for that. its about that trip to jaynagar. especially that weekender shop. Firstly, i was seriously running out of budget. Yeah inefficient planning....whateva :) okay so we( mandy and me...go figure out for urself who mandy is ) manage to make a rather handsome bargain, i mean considering that one usually doesn't bargain at such places. man i think am a villager through and through. completely uncivilised in everything i do. hehh!okay so after that, this button on my cargoes comes off instantaneously after i bought it. within a fraction of second. thats like. bad. really really bad, don't u think? anyhow, i start searching for it frantically. and then these salespeople try helping me out. they tried helping out in the hunt. then they got a similar cargo for me but me being me, i just had to make a fuss about the colour being off a shade. so then we finally get a button transferred from that one to my cargoes. i mean i thought we were being so fussy and throughout it all, the salespeople( esp this *particular one....yea you might try figuring that out as well) was being soooo patient and sweet. Oh boy we were really touched. guess its hard to come across such genuinely nice people around in this wild and crazy place we live in. sighh.
okay so there.
You know what? Often i derive my ideas from whatever's happening around me. And thats whats got me thinking hard. Picture yourself years down the road. When you are in a, lets say, marriage-able age. Your parents are the orthodox kind who, again lets say, are searching for a match for you but you already have the Mr/Ms Perfect in you life. But u haven't yet let that out. But you know that they won't give their approval, for some particular reasons. Should u be selfish and keep hiding this piece of news from them and announce it when u know Mr Perfect will be instantaneously willing to pop the Q right before your parents. Or should u think twice, esp about all that your parents have done withought having any clue about who you have in mind. i dunno. i know that u must many a times put urself above others but just someeeewhere deep down i feel a pang of guilt.
something's pricking.
