The Makeover

In DPS hostel, I and my colleagues were used to it, wearing those short skirts. Specially me and my best friend( still in no competition with those girls in commerce section :D). And when you are in a hostel you can live your life according to you, wear the clothes you want to wear (some restrictions are there  in every place). When the eye specialist recommended that I should start wearing specs, I was way too happy. Just because I thought it was classy, sometimes I even prayed to god to give me specs ( I know this is insane). So when I got one I wore it for two weeks, but never put it  on during school time. The thing was not that  I wanted to look cool, or the sudden change in my look would raise comments. Wearing it for long time just freaked me out, and I threw it inside the desk like rubbish. I would somehow manage it during coaching hours, it seemed really necessary that time. But now I think I should wear it more often. As my eyesight problem is growing with time.

Okay, so when I'll go to college I expect to meet a new set of people there, just as everybody else does. And there people have no feelings of inferiority complex, or have to worry about things like, what would people think when I put this on. We can go bindass and people will except us in the form they see that time. Boys go for funky haircuts. Some like too short from side and long in the front part and think it looks cool. Girls straighten their hair, which actually looks great in most cases. So not being a feminist, let me tell just what I'm thinking.

So, in BIT Durg ( Bhilai Institute Of Technology) where I'm going to study for next four years, they have dress code, i.e. Suit or some ethical dress (as written in the prospectus). The prospectus has more heart breaking information like how the boys hostel is provided with WiFi, girls hostel campus does not have it. Well there's no point whining about all this. So, wearing traditional dress would serve as an automatic makeover. Big contrast from our DPS uniform (I miss that too much now). The next thing is, I'll put on my specs from the first day of the college itself. I still can't decide whether it suits me or not. or whether it gives people nerdy look or a cool one. Just know, it wouldn't go that well with the suit. But here's a chance to stop following the western culture blindfolded. We can never stop it completely though, but this is a small step maybe.

Any ways it's not about the looks, or ways to gain publicity. And the true friends, they would never show slightest change in behavior because of physical appearance. It's just about personality. Isn't it??

Going to update my wardrobe then.......

P.S. - Planning for braces (approx 1 year) too.... XD
