The first scene that comes into my mind when I think of any ‘bad
moments of my life’ would be the scene at my college. I was wiling away my
time, when one guy dashes around towards me and accuses me of complaining about
him to our Sir. After that incident I realized there is no use of trying head
over heels to justify yourself to others, so I believe that I did no such thing
and was planning a trip with my friends! So when he screamed at me, I should
have asked him what the number was before 1144992!
Instead I screamed along with him, and boy you don’t want to
know how huge, HUGE, that ‘nightmare’ of mine turned out to be.
Scene 2:
My bestest friend ever in this whole wide world was
justifying her point about why she had asked me not to talk to a particular
person. I was adamant and stubborn as I always am to people whom I am not
afraid to be so. She stopped talking to me for nearly a year, thanks to the
jack ass! So, yah, obviously I learnt my lesson and completely agreed on what
she was saying about him. I should have joined her and bitched about him a lot
more.
Instead I just kept quiet and silently agreed to everything
she said. In fact I did include my points mentally. Don’t think anyone else
would understand that, except her, because she kept quiet the moment she saw my
head hung low, and came and gave me a huge hug. Ha, you have no idea how
relieving that was! I guess that is what best friends are for.
Scene 3:
A girl came over one night and blasted her thoughts about
how she thought my friends were and that I don’t know how to choose them WISELY
and stuff! She was just another random girl I knew, and personally she had no
right to barge into me, in the middle of the night, to talk about people whom
she has no clue about. I should have let her know a bit of my mind and told her
not-so-good things about her friends.
Instead I kept quiet, let her walk out of my life, and
called my friend and started crying! I mean how stupidlyinsane was that! Why would
I cry? But I guess if she, or anyone else for that matter, would return and
accuse people who are really close to me, I would still keep my
otherwisebigfatmouth shut! Is that bad?
So ya, I guess these are a few moments that are really close
to my heart. For the sole reason, they taught me who my actual friends are!
Just roaming around hand in hand during the happy times are not your friends. Having
to have a not-so-nice poster in your name stuck all around your college and
still have people stick around you no matter what, I guess those are my true
friends.
A lot does happen over coffee J!!
P.S: For those who haven’t understood what the number before
1144992 means, it is a fabulous way to calm yourself at moments where you are
sure you will blast off majorly! Count numbers the other way round. During
cases of extreme outburst start from a really large number, like 1144992! Try
it out. I am sure it will help you. It helped me!

I can connect with all that you wrote coz few incidents like your scene 2 did happen to me.And yes,our galfriends are the world's bestest.What more could you ask for?! :)
Lovely post!! :)
@Upasana: They definitely have taught me many things. So they always are close to me :)
@TheGirlAtFirstAvenue and TNET: I wish I am more prepared the next time!!
@Jen: Awww thank you so much dear. And yes, you couldn't ask for anything more than one girlfriend who would be with you no matter what. I have two, so I guess I am doubly blessed :)
At school I would have argued and argued with someone I didn't agree with but at college I just sat there and let them say all sorts of things that bothered me.
Wish I had been braver in college :(
@Hazel: Awww dear, look at it this way,
You engaged your voice and throat pretty well the whole of your school life, that you have learnt it doesn't really make ANY difference!! So it is best to just keep shut. Some people just DO NOT deserve your time love
Moments like these dot everybody's life.
I'm glad you learnt :)
You will definitely be prepared for better :)
aah! some friends are a godsend :)
and yes the first para is a reality of many of our lives too
@Serendipity: Awww I hope so too :)!!!
@Sujatha Di: Truly some friends are send by God. I believe that God couldn't be everywhere so he sent friends instead.
@Ashwini: Yes lessons should be learnt from every small incident. And that is definitely the only way we can console ourselves during tough times!
