Apparently I am a blue rose




You are a Blue Rose


You represent the unattainable and fantasies
Your vibe: larger than life and intoxicating
Falling in love with you is: like seeing a whole new world



There I go again... Remember me saying that blue was my favorite color? Here's another sign that it truly is. I answered this set of queries, totally unrelated to colors and roses, and what do I get? Cool! So now I not only like blue, I am blue! But blue for me does not mean "the blues" or sadness. It's more an indication of peace and serenity. Hmmm... I'm drifting into my calm again.

You should be a film writer


You don't just create compelling stories, you see them as clearly as a movie in your mind.
You have a knack for details and dialogue. You can really make a character come to life.
Chances are, you enjoy creating all types of stories. The joy is in the storytelling.
And nothing would please you more than millions of people seeing your story on the big screen!
Ha-ha! I knew it! Ever since I've known, I've had these random, weird dreams, which are so vivid, that if I could remember them for longer than I normally do, I could write them down and present them to a script writer. And the movies made from those scripts could beat any Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings that people have ever known. Ahem--that's going too far, but yes, they wouldn't be far behind ;-) This little test I took today confirmed my feelings and am so happy about it (grin)! Now if someone could make me a device that records all my waking and non-waking dreams... sigh! Well, all those techies out there should take me seriously. They've got a 15% royalty to look forward to (when my stories would inspire movies).

Pink se panga nahin lene ka!!

I can't stop grinning from ear to ear since I wore this dress this morning... rather, since I picked it up over the weekend. It's been a long time since I've had something pink, and I'm loving it! Not that it's my favorite color, but I'm taking a conscious break from my love for blue. That will not make me any less tomboy-ish, though. I will still sit, eat, drive, and talk like a "bhai", I will still put my arm around my boyfriend and slap him on the back whenever and wherever we're sitting and chatting... old habits die hard. I don't know how I acquired them, and I'm not sure what others think about how I carry myself, but most of the times I don't give a damn.
And...
  1. this picture (thanks to my boyfriend who clicked it and the place where it was taken--Fab India, after a fabulous lunch of Aaloo Parathas, Egg Sandwhiches, and Cold Coffee) is the perfect depiction of what I am, or what I feel I am--a fun-loving, independent, no-nonsense tomboy of a girl!
  2. if this liking for pink keeps growing I might one day end up buying the Pink Scooty Pep+ (whose slogan I've stolen for the title of this post), inspite of hating Scooty as a bike (except the good footboard and space under the seat enough to hold a helmet) and disliking the ad because it is based on the boys like blue girls like pink cliché.
Oh, and before I forget, I'm totally in love with the skirts (I bought one more similar to the one in this pic) I bought this weekend. Just the way I wanted them--print : floral, fabric : crépe, color : dark (low maintenance ;-)), feel : slightly coarse and heavy (keeps me from doing the Marilyn Monroe), leg room : roomy (frilly skirts allow you to ride a bike like the Hero Honda Street and provide simultaneous air conditioning ;-)), cost : just Rs.165 (that's inexpensive by all standards in Bangalore). What a feature-filled buy!! That reminds me of the jerkin my boyfriend bought a few months ago, but I will write a detailed post about it later. I've been intending to do that since the day he bought it. I think I should write reviews about such useful stuff rather than movies (which I happen to freak out on).

PS: For those who are interested, I got the skirt from a shop adjacent to the CCD on Brigade Road. I don't even remember the name of the blessed place. Warning, you (girls) might not want to check out anything other than these skirts in there. Also, make sure you do so until the stocks last! Shucks, they should pay me for being a brand ambassador!
