My B'Day

Hello,

Y’day was my B’day!! I turned 24...sounds a bit old na? Being totally helpless I have choose to accept the new “age count” with full excitement…Bday always make me feel young n very special... Wishes, gifts, cheers, cakes...
I had a totally different picture about me @ 24, few years back…I thought of myself being a bit more serious, matured, focused, independent. But there is not much difference I can spot other than being in a job n getting sum extra bucks to spend...Still I am the very same talkative, careless, clueless girl who thought of being in 20’s as something pretty great n wonderful…
But years do have seasoned me a bit here n there…Some for good and some still I cant set apart as good or bad...That’s d problem...We cant simply say experience done me good as I know something better than yesterday…In lot cases it is good to stay as know-nothing kid. That avoids lot of tensions n confusions …But again, we are choice less...We cant do nothing to wipe out all we have crammed in our head just to stay calm n free...It keeps on pondering …It keeps on adding …The best thing age do is, it will teach you how to “appear” calm and that’s the only thing the whole world is concerned about.

I never understood the point of asking someone’s approval/persuading them to say “its fine” when we are damn sure that they don’t really ‘like’ it (not about single occurrences nor about official stuff) .It only makes us feel good … making the other appear ‘ok’ with what u r doing…And in most cases it will makes the other confused trying to digest it as good (at least my opinion was asked!) when mind says the other way…It happens to me and of course ,I do this trick to others too …One more shortcut to happiness !!
That’s what age teach you...Tricks, tricks n lot more tricks… Some we are so used to that we consider it as well and correct…Leave it!

So, back to my Bday….It was simply great…Again proving me wrong, I am finding my life after college & school, equally or sometimes more exciting than the earlier part … Nowadays ,It never occur to me to think differently between my colleagues & classmates…a bunch of fun…Might be coz we got lot of young people around here. Anyway, I don’t think my workspace will make me think and act maturely in the way I have imagined out from books and movies...But it does made me understand the importance of being careful, being organized, being more open to other’s view points & being independent…If all this adds up as factors that contribute to maturity, I am climbing up..

My great friends@ room had dearly enjoyed my Bday…Am damn sure!! When chocolate cake n cream created maps on my face I assured myself as lucky and my friends as very sweet. But my friends took it just as a starter….
Greasing me all over with all the stuffs my room could offer including some ayurvedic oil (medicine 4 sprains I guess) which keeps my hair stink even after two days and 4 hair wash is something very rare to do. Right? Think of poor me, Next day in office with bday sweets n sticky perfumed hair...My shampoos stood helpless and I had to run for tissue to wipe the oil that wells up in my hand n face (@office)...With full oily head I was feeling so sleepy that I was trying hard not to fall from my seat…My droopy eyes made most of my colleagues think/tease that I have drunk a lot on my bday eve!!!!!!!!!!!!..(Please believe I haven’t…….)

To be very frank the only thing I longed on this whole day was “SLEEP”. I was praying hard to get over the day very fast, to make the clock tick fast and to hit the bed soon…


P.S –Thanks a lot my friends…. for the wonderful bashing Birthday eve( with b’day song ,chocolate cake ,that never forgettable “attack”, “self indulging” bath , lays n ketchup with our never ending talks...) for the beautiful flowers, nice gifts and the messages that kept my mobz beeping with “Inbox full”pop ups… Thanks a lot for the wishes…Love you all…


You have really made me feel special…
