Here comes the Bride, all dressed in...Red, Pink, or Gold?

Lately my mother has started badgering me about marriage pretty much on a daily basis. An off handed comment about my ripe, marriageable age...a meaningful glance at my friend's wedding card. Oh and going to the mall with her in this season is like punching a thorn bag! Everywhere there are wedding ensembles decorating the shop windows, and my mom does not waste a single moment to get on with it and mention how a deep pink would look so pretty. u-g-h!!
My elder sisters, not ones to be left behind, have their entire look figured out for my wedding!
They have every detail down to the T...right from their colour coordinated sharaaras, to the jewellery that will go on and the way their hair needs to be primped and oh! yes! the sandals need to have 3 inch heels atleast (to avoid tripping on the fabric..duh!).

Right, every detail but one... I AM NOT GETTING MARRIED!!!!!!!!!! :-S

Maybe i should move to another city...But would that be enough to get them off my back? ... and then i fear for my younger brother...what will become of him if my family cant get their hands on me - their favourite wedding bait!!

White Hair and Wrinkles

I turn 26 tomorrow.
I look back and see a not so bad life.
Much has been done in these years...much more has not.

The biggest unchecked item on the list is my backpack trip to Europe. Sounds ridiculous, but it needs to be done.

***
26th Birth Year Promise to Self - Visit atleast one European City in time for 28th Birth Year.

***

Dont feel like celebrating this year...im feeling more blase about it this time than i have in previous years. I hope thats just because of the crazy work load at office, and not because the spirit is getting old *shudder* :)

Happy Burdday to meee

She was not what she is

What is it about men that makes them so controlling towards the woman they marry? Do they get some other-worldly pleasure out of seeing her suffer through him? Is this a set rule inscribed in the 'How to be a Man' guide?

She takes care of the house, feeds his kids, feeds him! She knows where his clothes are kept - she washed, ironed and folded them , she ought to know! She knows what colours he likes, the ones he hates....the places he likes to go, the things he likes to do.

And then, a time comes when he forgets that the woman doing all this for him is his wife, and not his house-maid.

Which makes me think....maybe it is infact her fault

Damn!

Is there anybody here who does NOT want to get rich, or get famous...OR travel the world while they are still young? ...
Are people more alike than we want to believe? ... *shudder*

Monogamy

Revelation: - The reason why women can successfully remain loyal to one man – Shopping!!

It’s true. The intense pleasure we derive from - looking at shop windows, feeling fabric, trying on clothes, jewellery, bargaining, purchasing, taking mini coffee/food breaks and contemplating the next round of spending frenzy, this time Shoes and Bags maybe - leaves little room in our mind and heart for another man…one seems quite enough!
