It has been over 3 months since I went for a major make over and people are still having a hard time recognising me!. I straightened my hair, put on my conacts back and this all has been turning quite a few heads wherever I roamed. Initially it was very difficult to handle all the attention I was drawing. Everywhere I went, I noticed people (now this may sound a little pompous but you may substitute people for dames) givin a steady gaze and then whispering something among themselves. Perhaps they found it supercool or may be they ridiculed it. Point is that my hair style brought a grin and sometimes a giggle to women who noticed it as I don't remember seeing any kind of frown or grimace on their pretty faces. I am still clueless as to why has my hair style been such a cynosure when this has already become a fashion statement. This only gave me a tiny glimpse of the kind of attention celebrities have to deal with. Goshhhhhhhhhh!
Another funny part is junta asking me questions like are you a fan of John Abraham or saying 'this John look is really cewl man' or even going to an extent of changing my nake to John Athalye. lol
Now I have stopped explaining them that I wasn't an iota of aware that John Abraham had straightened his hair when I did it and that I just tried it for a change.
Nevertheless I have been thouroughly enjoying and at times equally getting irritated over my hair style.
But I better make the most out of it because its not gonna last forever, may be 3 more months.
Go Figure!!

Sometimes, I am intrigued by people's behaviour. It is full of different shades of gray. People that I know, people that have been associated with me at some time in my life or people that I've become familiar with recently or people that you just happen to see around you, all of them form some kind of opinion about you based on their first impressions.
Human mind is all the time either approving or disapproving of incidents,values,things and everything else that it can sense. This makes me think ,no conclude that human mind is in a perennial state of judgement. I am talking about judging people here.
How many of us have not tried to form an impression of an individual the first time that we noticed them. I have been trying to until recently! Now I am trying to relinquish that urge to judge people.
Especially during one s adolescent or college years, its a matter of self image. Everybody is trying to protray themselves as "cool". In doing so their original self gets shadowed under this desperate attempt to outshine others. We as adolescents are trying hard to identify ourselves with certain "cool" personality traits.
In short you are deriving your sense of worth based on other people's opinions. If you constantly do so, then your happiness is taken away not by people who are judging you but you are giving them the power to do so.
Believe me, if you are able to relinquish this uncontrollable desire to seek approval for everything you do from people, that will be the first step towards the salvation of your soul.
