I am starting this post with a deep sigh.The kind that comes forth when certain special things are on the verge of going haywire.This does not happen with me often.Things never go wrong.I manage to have my way almost all the time with most of the people....but this time..I disappoint myself.....I am almost losing a friend.
She was there with me when I was on my way to college on the first day.She was there as our seniors ragged us.She was there with me as I was trying to make sense out of a professor's lecture.She was with me..as we thrived,suffered and recovered from the proverbial "culture shock" that came hand in hand with the very first pleasures of college life.
She was there as we sweated it out clicking pictures and writing articles for our internship.She was there as we cursed the lady-in-charge for not paying us for our efforts.The long walks to the metro station,the constant giggling,the irritating Film studies classes,she was there all the time.
Why did things have to change..I wonder what changed...so much so that she is losing me.Why do friends have to be so different from each other?...Heck..why should that even matter ....why is it that things like career/depression/love life start over powering the nice breezy times we spend or the chocolates that we share or the silly giggles that we laugh.
It is not fair.
Now for other things,
Mounting exam tension.
Tension that cannot for the life of it drag me into studying.
Untoned tummy getting more and more untoned.
Certain hysterical bouts of hunger every alternate hour.
Certain compliments which fly high and thick and invariably make my day.
Wedding parties in the neighbourhood,smell of food every where...not a morsel to eat.
Current hair status -->waist length...growing longer day by day.*yippie!*
A sudden realization that the parents have officially lost it.
Favourite topic on the dinner table--->my non existant boyfriend.
Grim decision reached upon--->Will immediately stop playing Agony Aunt to all the guys who are desparately in love with either of my friends.
The search is on.Will start looking for a life.An offline life

P.S:I offer my special thanks to a certain Mr.Rishi Roy....who helped me put up a profile picture.Now I have a profile picture..yay!
