Am not a typical girl..infact, quite the opposite..I've always found sports, baggy denims, sneakers, whistling, hooting, liberal use of expletives more alluring than make-up, teddies, body hugging clothes, gossip, or accessories. So yes, flowers don't quite go with my liking..neither does the colour pink.I have always considered giving something that can be used more than as a simple showpiece on a birthday is better than a trip to Archies gallery & picking one of those rosy, pukingly embellished slates, that, in highest probability, will be passed on as a gift to someone else by the one whom you'd given it to in the first place, or find its place in the dumpster, after years of adorning the mantel. Also, I don't like cakes, as a matter of fact, I had never bitten a bite off my own birthday cake, until recently.
Ohkkaayyy....so, you are thinking, WHAT IS THE POINT...we already know it all...& frankly, if we did not, we wouldn't have been reading this blog in the first place, after all..Duhh....
Well, what you don't know is(or lets just say, hypothetically), just because I do not like flowers or cakes, or pink somethings, doesn't mean I don't like to be surprised by such things occasionally. Ofcourse, you'd be standing on the edge of a cliff, if I were to get such things regularly..but one birthday out of twenty four, I can be adjusting..it's more about the surprise element.
This brings me to the point that once in a blue moon, doing what you've always wanted to, to please your friend rather than what he/she wants or usually likes can also work wonders..rather, it just might be essential to break the monotony. There are many different sides to the face you see and only experimentation can reveal those new facets & lend a new depth to the friendship..that is why, in most instances, people who've known you the longest know you the most, since they've experimented.
P.S.: And yes, a brat can cook in the kitchen, a practical individual can fall insanely in love, and an extrovert can be a recluse too...
