Dear Feet, Contrary to what you believe, I really do love you :)

This post is solely dedicated to my love lust for shoes.
Because, if the world was a tuxedo, you wouldn't want to be wearing brown shoes.
It's not like i own a 100 pairs of shoes (maybe 40 odd).
But there is nothing I always want to buy like a good pair of shoes.
The problem is that I am a rational human being and i always thing along the lines of, "How can I walk all over something worth so much money!?"
Which is exactly why i insist that rationality sucks.
But all this has planted one idea in my mind.
The day I can buy a pair of Jimmy Choos without feeling any guilt whatsoever and wear them in the trashiest manner, I will know that I have made it.
*gulp*, Just look at these beauties.

Some one somewhere is doing exactly the same thing as you are right now

Its creepy.
The thought is creepy.
i can actually bet that someone right now is thinking the exact same thing right now.
Wondering if someone else somewhere else in the world is doing the exact same thing as he/she is and blogging about it.
i never really have thought about it.
but,
one thing i HAVE thought about is that someone somewhere is living his life bit by bit and building it for it to reach the point where his life is ready to intersect with mine.
my soul mate.
how can you not believe in destiny? in soulmates? in the Dil Toh Pagal Hai tagline of "someone somewhere is made for you"?

PS- notice how my "he"s have become he/she's :D
its my new found feminism talking.
'he' maybe a linguistic convention but you should see how the bias has creeped into something as foundational as our pronouns.
(I'm trying really hard to not become a feminist. Relax)

if it were utopia, and i could do what i want

so many things to do, so little time.

so many things i want to do, so many freaking social obligations!!

1) you're a girl

2) you're an indian girl

but the final one is the royal screw up

3)you're a gujarati indian girl

 

so under these circumstances you have two options-

1) pick up a hot shot career

2) pick up a rich gujarati boy for marriage

 

it's still the dark ages. *sulk*

but this blog isn't for that. it's for a list if things i'd like to be if i could have my way-

 

a) a librarian

i've always wanted to be one. i love the feeling of books all around me. i could pick one up anytime and read all i like. if i'm rich and famous one day, maybe i'll open one.

 

b) a children's book editor

wouldn't you want to be one. imagining all the magic shoes and elves all over again! i'd kill for it.

 

c) a stylist

shopping for yourself is already so great. shopping for others as a job. are you kiding me? it won't even feel like i'm working

 

d) an engine driver

because i thought that's what an engineer did when i was younger. the flags and whistle would be pretty cool too!

 

e) a gossip columnist

that job is tailored for me. it is. there shall be no further questions.

 

i can't come up with any more. so maybe soome other time.

till then-

all hail forward, loose, pub going women. it's hard being one :D but it's still fun.
