Life is like this.......

well! tht was a typical sahithi type of a narration...re-re-re-telling the same thing...wel i dnt want to criticize it coz i always loved it!...loved(past tense)[:p].....bt hey thts an art so dnt give it up....well abt the stff in the blog, i empathise with u for evry word written....n nw i cn actually divert all the matches coming for me to u( well!! finalllyyy an advantage of gettin a gal friend of same caste)..ok so comin to sme serious stff...i actually believ u cn deal very well with all tht stff....u wnt give up ur attitude for anything(i strongly believ!!!)...so dnt get too pissed off with thes experiences...u cn actually derive confidence from them....sooooooo much competiton for being ur groom!!!(doesnt tht sound gud???!!!)
n hey i strongly believe tht once u r posted to infy banglore...ur parents ll b left with no other choice...heheh....ok so nw u knw tht i posted this separatly coz this is very much prone to deletion once she derives the true meanin of it!!
You can just ignore such situations by not going to marraiges, functions etc. But "you are next in line" is a painful tag.... :p ... get over it....not much u can do....wait for summer and pack ur bags to blore...

hey i never said i don wanna marry or i hate marriage n i wanna be single.Im jus fed up with this monotonous multitasking adopted to get girls married in telugu households :).i only meant to put forth my view on tht aspect n im very much ready to marry if i find the right person.Jus tht i hate making rounds in parties and marriages to fall into ppl's eyes.any girl with self dignity wud mind it n im sure u wud have come across something like this :)Thanx for the advice.
or!?
u can do this,
go on and prented that you want to marry then and there, and make one hell of a scene, and let people know that you are insane ;)!!
if u want to be more consevative in getting off all your troubles, follow the three step process
1)lay off the plastic and elastic smile. grin dont smile. laugh loudly, dont ever ever smile!!
2)keep repeating the same thing again "enti? naku sariga vinapadaledu, koncham malli cheptara?" or "endukalagaaa :P"
3)if all else fails, u go for this "i love the groom ;)" :))
seriously speaking, i hate ppl marrying "off" thier girls anytime before 24, the very idea of planned marraige is insane. wud love to know what they were thinking, and prove them wrong
