To The Dude Upstairs.

Dear God,

It's been a while since we had one of these chats, eh? Okay, well, I do most of the talking and you do the listening, but it's not a monologue, is it now?
So, the last time I spoke to you was during my board exams. For which I thank you with every fiber of my being. I also have to thank you for NIFT, and Symbiosis. And maybe La Salle too. Really, thank you. I love you, dude. I really do.

BUT (You were waiting for this weren't ya'?) as any human being; who constantly has needs and wants. You know, wants are unlimited and all, like I learnt in Economics, I still want to ask you not exactly for, but about something.
So, Let me get to the point. How long am I going to wait till some sucker takes notice of me and actually thinks I'm worth a shot? (please forgive the language)
I mean, it's been forever, for crying out loud!
Every DECENT boy is either, taken, full of crap, scared by me or isn't interested. I mean, that DOES tamper with a girls self esteem, y'know. Especially if the girl is ME - y'know? Very FRAGILE self esteem.
And, if anyone else is going to say things like "All in good time" or something along those lines, I. Will. Throw. My. Smelly. Gym. Socks. At. Them.
I vow to do so.
And NO, I will not kiss a frog like my mother asked me too.

ANYWAY, back to the point.
Just let me know I'm not going to die as an old cranky and lonely lady that kids pretend is one of McBeth's witches. Which is probably what people think of me now, 'cept the "old" part.
I'm cranky.
I'm difficult.
I'm incredible needy.
I'm stubborn.
I'm obsessive.
I'm insecure.
I get that, but if they can't appreciate me at my worst, why in heaven's name should they see me at my very best?
Okay, anyway, this is just a little rant. I'm desperately hanging on to every thread of hope I get, and, I don't know how much longer I can hold on.
So, please send along a nice, sweet lad for me, will ya?

Thank you so much for listening, dude.
(is the dude part an overkill? Nah, it isn't. You're right).

Much love and in need of therapy,
Your very own,
Shrutilaya the soon to be Designer. (EEEP!)

P.S. NIFT Delhi, I need to get DELHI.
Thanks again!

All in good time? :P
You can throw your socks at me when you come to the boat club! :D

The Dude's got very little to do with this. Men are dumb. Well, most of the time anyway. No wait, all the time in fact. Err, never mind.

Piece of advice - Never go looking for a guy. When you do land one that way, they eventually turn out to be psychos! Your knight in tin foil on donkey-back is probably waiting outside NIFT Delhi. So what's the hurry?

PS : Ever noticed the fact that all the hot girls in NIFT Chennai have horrid looking guys for company?

Shrutilaya said...

Oh, I will. WAIT AND WATCH. Grr.

No, I'm not looking, really. Just thought I could get 'em "emotions" out there. Psychos. Yes, I've known a fair share. Dated one too.

NIFT? GAY.
And yes, I thought I was the only one. = P

Jinxed Pixie said...

ahhh...

now make that 'from layaness AND the jinxed pixie'

done.

Shrutilaya said...

Deal. Signed, Sealed, Delivered. We're yours. = D

Disguise said...

This is what God said

" You will get into NIFT Delhi, worry the not.
Oh, and no problem. I'm here to help.
And hello? I've planned everything, if I give everything away, it'll be so boring.
Just wait and watch, and I promise you're gonna love how it turns out!
Love you muchly :D

GOD"

Yeah, well, I'm his favorite Kid, so you know?

Shrutilaya said...

Haha.

Okay, good. = D

My thoughts EXACTLY.
I was JUST thinking along the same lines; and figured that that's probably the reason why I don't like to dress up anymore. And wear yucky shorts al the time.
And don't beautify my hair. And frown always.



.. so much so, that I'm probably CHASING THEM ALL AWAY. FORCEFULLY.

*sigh*
It's a tough choice.
Smelly shorts, or a man by my side.
I guess I've made a *temporary* decision.


:D

LionessWithoutAPride said...

Uhm, I was blabbing again, wasn't I?
I just wanna tell you that I hear you.
I hear you loud and clear, girl.
Whether the person upstairs hears you or not, if I may ad.

xD

Express said...

Haha!

Every DECENT boy is either, taken, full of crap, scared by me or isn't interested.
Ditto!
Ggrr

+ These lovey dovey couples all around don't help either!


P.S. Even I'm secretly hoping that I land up in Delhi for my MSc :D ;) Lesee..

I'll try 2 be truthful said...

'every decent boy is taken or full of crap' (so true ! )

Shrutilaya said...

@ shri - Haha, I find you so amusing.

@ shatabdi - Sucks no? We'll hope together

@ I'll try.. - Oh I will, DEFINITELY.

Ki said...

Umm okay! Wait! Hold up!

1. There IS a guy out there. He will love you, appreciate you, pamper you. Not despite your faults and quirks but FOR them. Capisce? You just have to have faith. And Karthik worries about psychos too much, nobody died but being a lil alert. :)

2. NIFT!!! I'm telling you, you're going to have me stuck to you for TWO years (till *I* have to leave). I can FEEL it. :D

3. Dude = damn cute. :)

P.S. I love you. :)

Shrutilaya said...

Haha. Yeah, psychos. Hahahaha. I think I've seen my fair share of those. I call some of 'em "friends" even.

Oh, trustez moi, I would LOVE to be in Delhi with all you guys. It's like another dreeaamm. *sigh*

P.S. I love you too!
And I want to see the movie.

LionessWithoutAPride said...

"Shri" PROTESTS VEHEMENTLY to being called that.
Come one, my name, in all it's glory, has only six letters. The two left-out letters are feeling exactly like that - left out.
:'(

Plus, I'm amusing cuz HELLO, SOMEone has to entertain me. I get restless quite often .
As you know.
:D

Shrutilaya said...

*Grin*

Love you, SHRIJA.

Mystique said...
