That Undesirable Girl

Yes, I am a girl with a dusky complexion, heavy body, short height and pathetic looking hair. I nowhere fit in the definition of beautiful.

Constantly trying to get the colour of my lipstick right...I guess red suits me well but equally, does pink or orange? When these girls have a conversation about the colour of the lipstick and nail polishes I'm phased out. I don't understand. Blue or black or green, what difference does it make?

Yes, I do wear earrings once every two months I guess. Why is it necessary anyway? Hoops or studs or whatever. And yes, why can't I go out with shoes that don't match my dress? I own just a pair. So they should go with everything I wear. Why can't they?

I've had this conversation with myself every time I look into the mirror, should  I go for a half pony? Na just normal pony will do. No, it isn't looking that nice, maybe I should drop them open? No, I should half Clutch them. Hmmm? I don't know. And these pimples...I'll be 50 and I'll still have pimples. The skin of the boys in my class is far better than mine.

I strive to look as beautiful as other girls in the college. But why do I try? I like wearing that old t-shirt with a panda print and those track pants I look like an elephant in. Ok, I stopped wearing them because everyone else wore a crop top and skinny jeans.

I am supposed to look desirable, truth is I'm not. I won't ever understand the definition of desirable as a matter of fact. And when all the eyes move in the direction of that girl entering the class, I lose my confidence. Guys don't know I exist. I am the most boring person as per your judgement but I'm the most fascinating someone you'll ever meet.

Even after losing my originality and dressing as per the vogue I am not equipped with confidence. So does all these go in vain? Yes for me maybe not for you. So I have started a new practice I wear what I want and look in the mirror and scream to myself that I'm beautiful. Yeah, I am not. Not to you but to me. And now when those eyes move in the direction of that gorgeous girl entering the classroom, I couldn't care less.

Thank you!

  3. Hi Deeksha, I am the girl who would enter the room and get all the attention. I can tell that's not fun at all. I want to live without those staring eyes on me all the time. Enjoy your existence here on the earth. Confidence has nothing to do about your looks. Outer looks can be changed if you want to. However I understand your feelings as society impose so much on us about beauty that we forget that real beauty is how you live your life, how you represent yourself and how well you can get along with others & your surroundings. I wish you all the happiness in the world.
    Lots of blessings

The Trip

My first ever trip started from my home town in Guna. Guna to Indore then Indore to Jaipur and to the destination finally, Banasthali. The adventure started as me and my sister's head out for the bus stand, okay FYI I have motion sickness and a journey of almost 12hrs from the bus was already a misery. At 10 pm at night on 18th of Sep, while we were boarding the bus, my ironed white top and the bag I had recently washed was smeared in muddy rainwater from the rope another bus driver was using. Uh! Whatever I cleaned my hands and boarded the bus in those same clothes, and they still lay in my cupboard unwashed πŸ˜‚  Yeah. Me and my sister chatted for a while, I had a lower seat and hers was upper. She told me never to book a lower seat on a bus because you'll never get the beautiful picture of nature, so I seized the opportunity and took the upper berth :p.   The City Lights at the night kept me from dozing. We were travelling to Banasthali, Rajasthan to attend my sis...

If only I would have realised earlier......

I woke up from the sound of a thud. Tears all over my face. I quietly glanced around everyone was sleeping peacefully. Maybe it was the sound of a vehicle passing by on the road facing my house. Now that I think about it, it was a dream I guess... But I just can't remember. I glanced at the watch it was 4:30 am, I still had time to sleep. Tried in vain, I couldn't fall back asleep, as I haven't slept last day as well I was tired and my eyes were hurting extremely. The efforts to fall asleep again were a total waste as my mind kept on producing unnecessary thoughts most of them being what was that dream about and I just kept changing the sides.  It was 5:00 am, that means I have been rolling in bed for half an hour.  So I got out of my bed poured myself a glass of water and headed out for a morning walk which I haven't done in ages and which was also good for my obese body. It was still dark outside, I locked the door and headed out. The way my day was progressi...
