A Day Out....

Lucky are those who find solace in life every other day... but being a normal human being, i feel its natural to be sad (for unknown reasons) sometimes.... I tried to figure out how these droopy and gloomy days can be tackled.. one of the solutions is to just get urself out of that routine and drab place!!! and sumwhere... which clicks ur mind first! and dont worry if ur friends/boy friend/parents are with u or not.... Just go!!!

So i followed the same perception.... I was feelin suffocated staying in the hostel... no1 said nethn... in fact every1 was having great time... i was involved as well... but suddenly,even with every1 around, i felt at sea.... sumthn was just behind my back, nagging... i had to just soothe it to get myself back to the normal state... i dunno wat was it... but i just thot i knew how to mollify it... so i set out to collect the gift sent by my friend ... which i have been delaying to collect coz of over-burdened exams...

I was happy that finally i m out of that guilt (not collecting it for so long)... this transaction took like less than 30mins... I dint feel like gettin back to the hostel... n the first thing that came to my mind was shopping... rather window shopping... so i made a move to one of the biggest malls in South Delhi...

I felt strange initially to walk all on my own... i used to hang out in this mall with friends or Abhi, always... so i never paid attention to the public... nw that i am all alone, i started noticing every1... it feels weird to see that every1 else doing the same and at the same time... i roamed around... was amazed at a few winter clothes... started imagining wat wud i look like in those garments... lovely shoes.... handbags... designers clothes... Indian wear... at that spur of the moment i decided to earn a lot and buy whole this mall :D :D

This mall uses its centre stage to reflect the festive mood.... Even though Christmas got over some weeks ago... they still kep a huge X-mas tree... which was so beautiful... and i started pondering over my experiences in France... it was so lovely to recollect those moments... and i started feeling light...

Candles... i got chocolate colored, candy flavored candles to home from France... my Mom just loved them... and seeing her expression, i also started having a thing for candles... n here in this mall i saw all these flower candles... they were so pretty... different shades, different designs... sumtimes its indeed good to shop alone... just to discover your new tastes and to realise how well u can appreciate sumthn :)

After a while, my stomach grumbled... so went to food court... every1 was with a companion...leaving me... bt its perfectly ok! i ordered a croissant for myself... n opened the book i got and started reading it... i was into the book for a while... and after sometime, wen i raised my head to understand what the world around me doing, every1 was looking at me suddenly (may be they thot i was all alone in life... or may be why on earth I am reading a book in this food court!!! could also be that they just found me mysterious with this dirty look on my face when i raised my head :D, lol)
i was surprised but tried to ignore... i was amused to see how quickly they resumed to their stuff in no time...

Well, it cant be possible to be all depressed, all the time, specially widout a reason... so I felt normal again... n called up my friend to join me... and she came like in next 20mins... after her entry, v did more window shopping, try-outs, plans to buy this n that in future, comparisons with watever she or i have... and finally had more food (naturally :P)
So what started like a confused day... ended in a as perfect way as it can be :)

To know brightness you need to be in dark and to know happiness you need a trip or two into depression.... May be that was automatic reaction of your body ;)
