Note: This ones been coming a long time...n probably will undergo a lot of edits...ne comments are welcome!!
Also Note: This has nothing to do with Mr. hellars catch 22(though i do admire the book)...so dont ask me fr ne connections!!
Here I go...cheers!!
I remember the night so vivdly like it was yesterday. The night of the 24th of september 2006. It was a sunday. As was usual in those times, i had spent my weekend in chandigarh (i love that city!!). Took the 9:00 clock bus that night which meant i wud b back at college(engineering college that is) at 3. Those of u who have read my profile might recollect that next day wud b my birthday...
and here i was...looking at the watch..waiting for the watch to strike 12 (i know clocks are supposed to do the striking part, but i only had a watch [:(] ) sitting beside a gud old fren (dear muchu, for those who must know) who was snoring loudly into the night. The notion that was bothering me was..."Hel, ill be 21 in a few hours !!". I had always known that u r supposed to become adults when u r 21 but the gravity of the situation hit me at that very point.
Terrible thought: I must admit i was a little scared, i didnt know what all was expeeted off an adult, was i supposed to be somebody else, overnight, somebody much more respomsible, thoughfull and all that crap adults are..(no offence adults...pls)... i mean i was still a kid...a huge one yes..but a kid all the same...y did i need to be all that..i was happy being what i was....i still wanted to enjoy my life....i still needed to work on it..(apart from everything else, i was still single..[;)] )....
Nehow..somehow i managed to solace myself into an understanding...
Next terrible thought : " Such a momentous occasion in my life and i m spending it in a weird bumpy bus with a snoring fatso..(sorry mucchu, but fact hai!!)...hell...wud neone even remember....does neone even care....
More terible thoughts: M i obssesed with myself, m i a narcissist, y m i thinking so much about myself, cant i just cool off, its only a birthday for GODS sake, its not like it comes only once a year....hold on..it does..doesn't it??..GOD..help me...!!!
Weird Thought: Does everyone who turns 21 think like this....does becoming an adult mean becoming all weird like this..( seems like quite a high probability)....come to think of it..WHAT DOES ONE THINK WHEN HE/SHE (or may be i should just rite he coz m not so sure females can think, atleast not at the age of 21...[:)]) TURNS 21!!....what is it that makes them an adult...??
Weirder Answer: If i knew, i wudnt be 21!! CATCH 21..
Conclusion: Its Been almost an year of being 21...i have learnt this....
NOTHING.
.CATCH 21 eh??..
But then...lets face it...who the hell gives a damn...ill b an adult when i want to..as of now...Lets Party!!
What Happened next: I got a call from most of my frens, muchu( ya the snoring fatso) also wished me , and so did my parents. I was in quite a merry mood hence and devoid of ne more weird thoughts. And for ne females that did call me the following day, for a change i did not use any ideas which could possibly be mentioned in dummies guide to talking to females. May be being 21 does change u a bit.AHHHHH!!
P.S. I always wanted to say this..if u r a fren n did wish me that night...even if u thot of doin so..thanks a tonne..probably it meant a lot..
Again Note: There is no book called dummies handbook to talking to girls...dont go lookin for it!!..
and ya...i did mention that i was single....but dont take thae otherwise..[;)]
and ya people...no offences meant!!
