I hate

I hate ,when people condemn me in public
I hate ,self centered humans who fail to see their own faults and always blame others
I hate ,when people change
I hate ,when people don't empathize with me or other people in general
I hate ,people who pretend
I hate ,to wake up early in the morning or when I don't get sleep
I hate ,to be alone when am down
I hate ,when things aren't going my way or isn't done how its supposed to be
I hate ,when my hair gets wet

The list is longer but these top the list..
Am I abnormal? :P

Oversmart ? You bet, I'm!

Out of sheer boredom and an attempt to save my left-over hair I decided to use my ingenious brain! One of those countless instances where I think I have got-it-all-right and goof up..

Lately, my hair fall has increased to exponential levels due to the chlorine content of the water here. I hadn't made any effort to stop the hair-fall until today!

I am overprotective about my hair. I used to take utmost care of it almost always.
Be it covering with a duppatta while pillion riding, using the hood of my jacket (for which i have received god-knows-how-many-smirks), oil massaging, applying mehendi,amla powder bla bla bla!

I 'insisted' my Mom to send me a packet of amla powder, methi powder and shikakhai powder through a fellow cousin , even after her warning that it might not be a good idea to use them here (US) for reasons which are going to be mentioned a little later.

So, I beat the egg and mixed it with Methi, Amla powder and applied it to my hair and left it for over 30 minutes. (Not to forget, the unendurable egg-smell on the hair). The trouble started while applying the mixture itself - The chunks of methi balls started falling all over the floor/bathrug, the sink was getting dirty while I was applying etc etc. - but I continued with process convincing myself its for my good.

Then, I decided to take bath and the endless fun starts!

I put on the shower and started to scrub my hair when these methi chunks started falling off, the bath tub started getting slimy, the shower curtains and the walls were full of the mixture, and to top it all the bathtub started clogging due to this - These stupids don't even have a bigger outlet for water!
It took me nearly 1 and 1/2 hrs to finish my bath!! I had to scrub the bathtub, the shower curtains and the walls to get rid of the slime. I'm fully not satisfied abt the scrubbing part though. I could see traces of it, but did not have the patience to continue!
Tomorrow I should call the caretaker to see my bathtub is unclogged! Uffffffffffffff!!

Laugh your butt off people!!! I deserve it for my stubbornness and stupidity! ( Bekittaa nanigeee?? )

Wish I had listened to my mom, Decided that I will never ever do this exercise again till my stay here. One of those innumerable days when I miss my mom and Bangalore :-(

When in Bangalore, I would grind the soaked methi seeds (never used methi powder before) and Mom used to apply to my hair delicately making sure not to drop the ground methi on the floor and even put on the rubberband to my hair 1- To avoid, the ground methi which falls off as it drys and thereby dirtying the floor , 2 - I need not wash my hands after touching my hair which was applied with the mixture. She used to give me a thorough headbath (after which sometimes I used to crib that the oil is not gone at all) and clean up after me - my hair, methi leftovers all over the wall/floor! She used to even dry my hair coz I wasn't 'strong enough' to remove the water and later I don't catch cold.

Life is slowly teaching me lessons.....I miss you Mom, I really really do...
