"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." — Marilyn Monroe

This is exactly how I feel right now. I don't think I have ever felt this amount of impatience and insecurity in my life. I did not think it was possible to be so negative, so anxious. There is nothing I hate more than feeling helpless and pessimistic. I hate having to draw morbid pictures in my mind, I hate not knowing what to do. To just sit still and wait. Waiting is horrid. It fills an unknowing dread inside of me, I immediately start thinking of the worst. This is why I am such a stickler for punctuality.

Up the Faraway tree.

Everybody has a secret world inside of them.

All of the people in the whole world. I mean everybody.

No matter how dull and boring they might seem to be on the outside.

Inside of them they've all got unimaginable, magnificent,wonderful and stupid worlds.

Not just one world, hundreds of them.

Maybe thousands.

- Neil Gaiman

Truer words and all that. I, for one have atleast a billion worlds inside of me. Some where I am a princess, some where a fashion model. They often change and grow and are sometimes discarded for newer worlds, fancier worlds. But somewhere within me, in my unconscious, they stay. I never really forget them. I think they help me grow, to introspect. To visualise where I see myself. To realize what I see myself as. These worlds are my aspirations, they exist not only in fantasy land but in a parallel reality. And whenever life gets a wee bit dull and stagnant, I delve into those faraway lands. To seek courage.

So, what are your worlds? What to do they signify to you?

Lusty desires

Anyone who knows me, can well tell you how much time I invest in surfing around websites of The Body Shop, Boots, Victoria Secrets etc.
So, while I was browsing through the newest collection of TBS, I saw this...

... and my heart let out a melancholic sigh.
[To, the insufferable, odious, klepto PIG, (Piglet, as I was staying in an all girls P.G when the event culminated) : I cannot, believe anyone can be so disgusting as to steal a beloved bottle of perfume. REALLY? This is beneath even you, whoever you may be. I hope you never have the pleasure of smelling fabulous, and I hope that bottle broke before you could spray it on your criminal hands]
Well, I am sorry for the outrage but as Mr Khaled Hosseni has written, quite marvelously, I may add, " There is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft... When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someones right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness. " And when you steal a bottle of perfume, you steal the buyer's right to enjoy her purchase and smell amazing.

Anyhow, I am currently lusting after the new Sweet Lemon range of TBS. I love citrus-y smells, especially in soaps and shower gels! I am currently using a Lime soap, and I can't get enough of my own self when I am just out of a bath. It smells so fresh. Energising and invigorating. Like a breath of air, a ray of sunlight, No? I am dying to get my hands on the moisturiser, especially. I am very loyal to Body Shop lotions. They are very light and fluff, and their smell lingers on while not being particularly strong.

I, don't usually use a lot of Body Shop make up, but their latest "Baked-To-Last Colours" sounds pretty good. The jade baked eye colour, in this range looked particularly appealing. It has a great blend of green and blue, and will look fabulous worn with dark or complimentary colours. It will be perfect for evening outings!


What a pity, that my birthday has passed.

Of Fitzwilliam's, Bennet's and Mushy Quotations.

" I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look or the words, which laid the foundation.It is too long ago.I was in the middle before I knew I had begun."

"You have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you"

This quote gives me goosebumps, makes my knees weak. There have been much more elaborate declarations of love, in history, in literature and even in popular culture, but there is something about this quote. How in one sentence it captures more, expresses more. I do not know what I wish for more, that I could write like that, or I could be blessed enough to have it told to me.
