Handwriting Tag, Introducing The Traitor and a Progress Report.

Am I cramming too much stuff into a single post? I don't know, but I'll try to keep it short. 2 entries in a day often tend to go unread anyway. So let me start with the fun stuff. I was blog hopping this morning when I bumped on to this post at the Tsarista sez, and thought it might be fun to do it too, so I decided to give it a shot, shamelessly (because no one tagged me). Basically you answer the following questions on a piece of paper in your handwriting.

1. What's your name/your Blogger name?
2. What's your blog's name/URL?
3. Write "the quick fox jumps over the lazy dog"
4. Favorite quote?
5. Your favorite song?
6. Your favorite band/singers?
7. Anything else you want to say?
8. Tag 3-5 other people.

I tagged 4 people in the post (Fortunes Fool, Chris @ Chaos and Kairos, Stacey and Janey - Because.. No because, because they're super special!) but it's really open for anyone and everyone :)

Okay, moving on to Part 2

People have always presumed stuff about me, that I am a bitch and a snob and various other mean things. I don't know how they made that presumption in the first place, and on the other hand I am actually better off not knowing such kind of people. I have very few friends, I have many many acquaintances, and I have had only 1 enemy till date (She needs a separate blog post altogether, gotta add that to my list). The easiest thing about having an enemy is that you can just be open about your hatred for the person. I have known many people that I dislike, and I dislike a lot of people, hence very few friends :P I do not wish badly for anyone, not even the people whom I dislike.The problem arises when a very close friend crosses over to the dislike territory. Meet The Traitor.

When I was finishing my professional education overseas, I spent a lot of time online. I still do! It's different now because I have work to do and studies to take care of. Back then, I was just alone and miserable after Justin left. But I made a good online friend circle (The biggest mistake of my life)! The Traitor used to be friendlier than usual, and well I used to like her too, it was all good at first. Then I returned to India and I met her. It was alright, but the next thing I know is there are posts and pictures of me and her all over called "BFF". I was not that fond of her, But I tagged along with her (also coz' she praised me all the time, I should have known!). She had a very negative vibe about herself, and I did not know this for a long time that she used me to prove to the world that she was "cool" too. Ryan hated her guts, but tolerated her anyway because she was a friend of mine.

One night she had come over to our place and we were supposed to watch a movie together. I was not feeling too well, so I passed on the alcohol. Ryan and Traitor were having their drinks, and I know my drinks pretty well. It is very easy to pretend that you're drunk, but it's easier for me to spot that. Well, Ryan was drunk and passed out, I just went out of the room to attend a call and when I get back, she was sleeping on him. I did not react that time, and turned a blind eye because I knew that Ryan had passed out and wouldn't hit on her anyway. She was awake, and struggled back to her position pretending she was drunk. Whatever, I tried not to think and be the same with her because of the friendship.

Few months later, a completely new acquaintance shared some information with me where she told him that her best friend's boyfriend tried to sleep with her. I knew it was about me, and I was furious. When I asked her, she had no answer and blocked me out of everywhere. I know Ryan is a cheat, but he has a certain class of women he would cheat with too, and not in a million years could it be her. I found out recently that she has been stalking me for the past year when we have not talked, and the special disclaimer on the blog is specifically for her. She added me on Facebook on 1st January, and I thought with the whole break up thing and a brand new year maybe I needed to make new beginnings, and I accepted her request. It so did not work out! She started stalking me more and more till finally I deleted my Facebook account altogether.

I never knew someone could emit such negativity with so much intensity! Ughh, she just makes me feel angry and depressed instantly. I wish I never knew her!

Okay so moving on to Part 3 :)

Progress Report : I decided to make a change and have a better lifestyle a little over a week ago, and so far it has been going pretty good! I haven't lost a lot of weight but I have lost inches, and I have been working out regularly. Eating healthy, and covered up a good amount of portion for my exams (not too good, but before I started I had just finished 5 pages in 10 days which was horrible). PMS slowed it down a little bit, but I'll be back to the drill in no time! Also, the 30 day thing is really making me introspect a lot.. I think it's a good cleanser. 3 weeks to go! 

Last but not the least, each one of you motivates me a lot. It feels awesome! Who knew I would find such a great group of people here :)

Only Love,
