Were all grown ups ugly,gawky and foolish lookin when they were kids..?i know loads of them who weren't...i know some of them who were..one of them being ME..! ugly may jus be too strong a word to use..but gawky and foolish lookin , u bet i was...and if u ask my friends about it,they'l tell you that i haven't changed much since then..;)
but i tell u wat, if u are feeling low or say things are not working in our favour...i hav an amazing solution for that...Go look for one of your old school albums...Relive each one of those moments again through those pictures...trust me not only will it bring a huge smile on your face, but will relieve you of all the tension and worries and make u feel better about yourself and the person that u hav become....

I,for one, would like to believe thatt i had an 'almost' perfect childhood...been there, done that..:)as i mentioned earlier i wasn't a very pretty looking kid in school..infact i clearly remember this one incident where this guy who had a huge crush on me asked me out and my only reply to that was..."huh...of all the girls in school u like me..?" Poor guy u should've seen the look on his face it was hilarious....i learnt the tactics of better ways of refusal later in life...:)But thats probably the only problem i faced as a kid...low self esteem...but mind you that never deterred me from havin crushes on a million guys.{i don even remember the names of some of them!;)}.....
but nevertheless being a kid is probably the most fulfilling experience of one's life....i hav genuinely experienced it all...

from being an A grade student to becoming a 70 percenter in coll{ nothing to brag about, i agree!}..from singing carols at midnight during christmas to later developing the most husky hoarse voice a girl can have {risi would agree :)}...from being this petite feminine 9th grader to becoming 'Charlie chaplin' in the most happening costume party ever{chung this ones for ya..!}...from being slapped for the first time(n hopefully the last!) in the 5th grade for not doing my sanskrit homework to thumping ' we will rock you' beats on the benches during physics class.....from being a sober play safe sort of a girl to later developing the bold "sir,if u throw sulu out, u gotta throw me out too" kind of an attitude...

well i genuinely hav seen it all...but wat i miss the most about being a kid is the naivety and the innocence...i may hav turned 20 but i'm not sure if i've really grown up in my head...and somewhere down the line i think it has been a conscious effort to keep the kid in me alive....i guess thats the only way to live life to the fullest..only then can one enjoy and be amused at the lil joys of life...

So don be in a hurry to grow up....make the most of the time u hav now....
for growing up is a natural process that never ceases...
but the kid in u may die even before u realize it......
