Goings On
Another one of those career counselling sessions happened at home.
Mum : So what are you going to do after you do Eco?
Me : Um. You realise I'm not even necessarily doing Eco, so kinda off-tangent to tell you what I'll do after that, right?
Mum : But you must know something..
Me : See, I'll give you a better option. I'll do one of those photography diplomas. Then you won't have any doubt. I'll have to be a photographer. Easy.
Mum : Photography is redundant. Why don't you become a paanwaala?
Me : Um. What did you just say?
Mum : Yeah, see it's safe. Recession, no recession, you're protected. No risk.
So. Vasudha Paanwaali and Associates anyone?

During the last week, I have been told that :
- I need a nose job.
- I am disloyal. [o.O]
- "Hey, self obsessed!"
- I should get my hair rebonded.
- "Bitch about you? You're our favourite topic of mockery, honey."
- I dance scarily. [After seeing the videos, I have to agree]
- "You = innocent? World = apocalypse."

The last fete at school just concluded. If last year was Operation Human Poster, this year was no less. The lucky draw stall I was on duty at had a cycle as one of the gifts. One glance and I knew it. Convince teacher, check. Convince friend, check. Fifteen minutes later, there's a crazy female cycling around the grounds with another at the back, shouting, "Luckydrawluckydrawluckydraaaaaw!" in manner of enthusiastic DTC conductor. The 9th standard actually cheered. Good God.
