You...
As usual, I was stoning in office as there was no work and to top it all even my supervisor was on leave. So what I did in the office for 9 hours? I wrote a poem, which I am going to share, and also read random blogs. This poem was a bit difficult to write as I just cannot do romance. Anyways, I tried as I had all the time in the world. So here it is..
Your hand
Held out for me,
Waiting as patiently
As you can be,
While I stand
Hesitantly,
Knowing not
What I sought.
Slowly,
My hand
Found yours,
As I took a chance
In this romance.
Your smile
Your steady hand
Your unwavering confidence
Guiding me through
This unsteady land,
Never once judging
Never once complaining.
And then you whisper,
The very three words
In my ear,
The words
I thought I would never hear.
You are the light
Overtaking the night,
You are the heat
Covering the cold
Like a sheet.
You came along
When something was not right,
And like a beautiful song
You made everything feel right.
I wonder,
If I deserve
The love
You shower,
But you never let me down
As you turn
My world around.
Though
I still have doubts,
Though
We still collide,
One thing is for sure
I cannot live without
You by my side.
I pray,
Every single day
The love will never die,
And we would never say
Goodbye,
I pray,
We will go far
And just remain the way
We are.

Retail therapy...
..A great way to chillax (chill + relax) and totally distress. I know all the girls out there know this already and must be wondering what’s new. What is new is that I hardly do retail therapy. I admit I am a control freak (not stingy). I rarely buy things on impulse. That changed when my friend, whom I met after 10 years, invited me to go shopping with her. I took up on the invitation as I badly needed a boost from my ultra hopeless and boring life and also get away from the problems for a while.
So we met last Saturday and had our lunch first. The lunch, I should add, was pretty good. She introduced me to this place and it is really cool. Really nice decorations and nice ambience. I am definitely going back there again one day. Then she told me there were sale in one of the shopping centres and we hurried there. There were huge discounts on bags, shoes, clothes, u name it! I managed to get permission from my mum (as I am banned from buying things as I have too many) to get a bag once I saw a few bags which I liked. For once, I did not care about the price, well in the sense increased my budget, and got myself a bag! That thrill of letting go for a bit and buying something is totally unexplainable. I was completely happy at that moment. I helped my friend choose a bag also and then we proceeded to the shoes. We went crazy seeing the 70% discounts. Sadly, whichever pairs I liked, they did not have my size. However, it was still fun just checking them out. After that, we checked out other sections and went totally goo-goo ga-ga over some of the things.
After 6 hours of non-stop shopping/window shopping, we decided to stop as our feet were hurting badly. Blame it on the heels. All-in-all I thoroughly enjoyed myself. It did not make my problems go away or dramatically changed my life. But I did realise after so long, my friend and I had similar tastes and had the best 6 hours in a long time. So for all the control freaks out there, let go once in a while…it works wonders!

His..Her..
I just felt like writing something and it ended up being very sad.. :( neways here it goes...
He looked back,
For the very last time,
Wishing she would turn,
As she waited in the line.
His face,
Betrayed nothing,
That would seem,
Out of place.
He could not show,
The acute pain,
He was feeling,
In his heart,
He could not bear,
To be apart,
But he did not know,
If it was right,
As he was not alright.
But he had to know,
One last time,
Before he let her go,
This was right,
If she was alright.
He yearned,
But she did not seem,
To feel the same way,
As she walked away,
Without a concern,
Just like a dream,
So surreal,
So unreal.
He left,
Saying goodbye,
To a love,
He will never forget,
Even if he tried.
She knew,
He was waiting,
For her to turn,
But that was something,
She could not do.
Her face,
Betrayed nothing,
That would seem,
Out of place,
As she waited in the line.
She could not show,
The acute pain,
She was feeling,
In her heart,
She could not bear,
To be apart,
But she did know,
This was right,
Even if it was unfair,
Even if she was not alright.
She let him go,
Wishing him all the happiness,
In the world,
As she did so.
She yearned,
To see him,
One last time,
As she came to the end,
Of the line,
Instead she pretended,
She did not care,
Did not feel the same way,
And walked away,
Just like a dream,
So surreal,
So unreal.
She said goodbye,
To a love,
She will never forget,
Even if she tried.

Crush
I attempted to write a song but I think it ended up being more of a poem. So anyways, please read n let me know how it is..It is called "Crush"...
You walk right past me,
Perfectly oblivious,
To what you do to me,
How much more obvious,
Do you want me to be,
To show you,
How I feel.
Your smile,
Leaves me breathless,
Your eyes,
Leaves me mesmerised,
Just looking at you,
Leaves me speechless.
Why oh why,
Do I feel this way,
Why oh why,
You make my day,
Why oh why,
My heart beats fast,
When you are close by.
Look at me,
Look at you,
Can’t you see,
That’s what,
I want you to do?
I promise,
You won’t regret,
I promise,
You won’t forget,
Just look at me,
Why don’t you,
Just look at me.
You walked past,
I kept hoping,
And suddenly you smiled,
A beautiful smile,
I just kept staring,
All this while,
And praying,
This moment will last.
Why oh why,
Do I feel this way,
Why oh why,
You make my day,
Why oh why,
My heart beats fast,
When you are close by.

Random thoughts
How long can a person wait?
How much can a person trust someone?
What can be done if the person is unable to adjust?
How much can a person tolerate?
Is a person with a changed mindset still called a good person?
What happens if the person is not able to fit back in?
What if the person feels restricted?
What if the person gets so restless to the point of becoming lazy?
Should this person still quietly wait and hope…?
Just some random thoughts....

Another chapter closes...
I was looking through my old diary (yes, I used to keep diary when I was in school), and turned to the last entry I ever made...
Date: 28.6.05
I am going to this uni in Perth. I am going to live all on my own. I am soo excited and at the same time nervous! I am going to start a new journey in life. I just hope that things will go well for me and I would be able to face all the challenges! I still have a lot of shopping to do...
Love,
Shreosi.
I smiled as I read this entry made 3 years ago. Little did I know at that time, my 3 years in Perth was going to be my most memorable experience in my entire life. Living in Perth all on my own has taught me a lot of things and I grew from a shy, unconfident, sheltered 18-yr-old person to a more matured, more confident, more communicative person. I know some people still have doubts about my communication skills but trust me..I am much better than I used to be.
I was blessed with this really good group of friends who accepted me for the way I was and tolerated me for the past 3 years. I was able to share anything and everything with them. We laughed, we cried, we gossiped, we quarreled and then we made up again. They might not know this but they have made an impact in my life. From them I have learnt to open up. From them I have learnt that it is totally alright to voice out my opinions. From them I have learnt fashion. They were always there for me through both my bad and good times and have given me good advises from time to time. From them I have learnt how to have fun. I have also found someone to lean on when times got rough and also showed me how to be truly happy and be positive in times of uncertainty. I want to take this opportunity, through my blog, to thank all of them. I love you guys alot! :)

I met different types of people from different backgrounds with different points of view. It was very hard at first but I slowly learnt to tolerate and broadened my perspectives of certain things. I have learnt to be more independent and now I am proud to say, I am able to rely on myself. Time management was also an issue that I had to tackle.
There were many ups and downs. There were a lot of dramatic moments which I had never experienced till I came to Perth. Though they weren't good moments, it brought some sort of dynamism in my life..which was lacking before. I had a lot of fun too. I went for many parties and did things which I would not have done had I remained at home.
I have officially graduated and now have left Perth for good. Though I feel sad and missing Perth terribly, I would never forget the memories that I have. Living in Perth have changed me into a better person and I am really thankful that I was given this opportunity to study there.
A chapter in my life story closes as I have graduated. But one thing is for sure, I will always always remember this chapter. Since life goes on, another chapter will open soon where I would be entering the workforce...Again, I am both nervous and excited as I begin this new journey through life. I will keep you guys updated on what's going to happen next! :)
