My other side…


My other side…

I can start by writing in the title like “Diary of a so-and-so girl” but it is clichéd. So I will stick to the simple style.
I have been thinking a lot lately as to why I am not picking up my pen and writing down my thoughts as I really used to do. I can’t find a better reason why I am not picking up the pen to write, because pen, I am picking up for sure but for entirely different reason i.e., to correct copies of my second graders.
For a long time there has been a drought in my personal life. I don’t want to blame it to my professional life, like I usually do J
May be I just need a break.
Nah! I don’t need a break. I just need to start writing the stuffs that is going round and round in my head.
Even if it is faaltu I should start writing to get in touch with my inner self.
Wish I could write a good story…hmmm
Once I did my personality check up-online (now don’t give me that look).  It said something like “you are sweet, intelligent and honest girl” (seriously it said so).
So my question here is: Why is a sweet, honest and intelligent girl in her mid twenties still single???
The question has been bugging me for quite some time. I am without an answer.
I asked my sister. She’s all like “you are very strong and quite inflexible and too independent…in short –manly. So men are not asking you out because you are intimidating. And men don’t like woman that are not ‘woman-ly’.
Hmm… again…stuck in the thoughtful mood.  What are the qualities of being womanly, anyways?!  Is it a crime to be independent, strong (or headstrong for that matter) or self sufficient? Is it too much for a guy to have a girl who is not wimpy at all? Why am I just-like-a-glass-without-a-single-drop-of-water-in-it type single? Sometimes this question is frustrating because every time I ask this question to myself I am left with a feeling as if a fish-bone is stuck in my throat, and, trust me, all my vegetarian friends out there, this feeling is uniquely frustrating.
Will it be a stupid question if I ask ‘why is there only 24 hours in a day’?
