I learnt a little gem yesterday, and I think it might actually change the way I think of things. So perhaps for the first real time in my entire life, I wore this sexy short skirt thing, with the whole shebang that ususally accompanies that sort of attire, you know, the heels, and the hair and the earrings, and so on. And the reaction to me dressed in the above mentioned, was, well...unexpected.
So, here's the thing, I am not the bombshell-can't-keep-our-eyes-off-her-type of girl for guys. Now, don't get me wrong, by all accounts, I am reasonably attractive, average-looking, great hair(yes I said it myself), and easy enough on the eyes, even if I am a little overweight. However, I have never caught the eye of any guy by just walking into the room, except for once.(and for that I will always love you, Mr. Nagarajan) Yesterday was a completely different story. Despite what my best friends, Gooseberry and Mikosan(not their real names) think, I do not self-perception issues, I call it like I see it, and in this case I have always seen it this way, but yesterday, dear god, yesterday! Instead of going on about it, can I just say, that the guys were all over me, and for the first time ever, I turned heads by simply walking into a room. All because i showed off my rather fantastic legs(again, yes, I said it myself) just a little bit, actually a lot.
So the aforementioned gem, people? A little leg, goes a long, loooong way!!

It's fun when it happens, isn't it!
You have this perception of yourself as someone who probably needs her brains, because that's what seems to make the most impression and then on an arbitrary day when you least expect it you find that just maybe your looks can get you by too.. :)
Not that you would settle for just that, but it sure is nice to know anyway..
Oh and thanks for stopping by. I was just thinking that about you too. You are all grown up. I doubt I could have caught the anumita of 1st yr at stella saying all this!
And change, my friend, I heartily concur, is not the enemy!
