Diamonds are forever

"Diamonds are forever"... "Diamonds are a girl's best friends"... So go the lyrics of two evergreen songs. And its so very true. I can swear on it. Asking why? Coz I just got 'MY FIRST DIAMONDS'. And I'm on cloud nine. Or cloud 10..11...12 rather ;)

My parents bought me a 'princess cut diamond ear studs and a pendant with chain set'. Occasion? Oh, nothing like that. Just coz I passed MBBS :) And I loved it. My family loved it. My friends loved it. The jeweller loved it too!!. Lolz. Infact,I'm just running around fishing for compliments ;).

I'm loving wearing the studs everyday. Every morning I look into the mirror, these are the first things I notice. It makes me feel so good that it instantly gets a smile on my face. Not just because they are expensive or anything. But just for the fact that they look so damn pretty and chic and elegant and classic and what not. I go speechless. Absolutely speechless. Just feel lke looking at them all the while. Feels like its making me look pretty. Feels like I'm special. The fact that its my 'first diamond' makes it feel much more special. The fact that the best member of my family(my mom) and one of my best friend were with me when I bought it, makes it feel further more special. All in all, I couldn't have asked for something better. I expected a far more smaller and simpler one than this.The one I got happened to be lottery!!. I'm so very thankful to my parents for that. I'm somebody who cherishes the smallest of small joys of life. And this one is a 'feast'. Trust me girls, to know what diamonds really do to you, you should actually own one. You will feel a princess.Nothing less than that. :) I'm as glad as I could be. No two ways about it. I'm smiling while I'm writing this too. :) :) :) :)

Random happenings..

Running around shopping is the only thing I've been doing nowadays other than my internship. Are you thinking, what's so new in that? Wait a minute, I've not shopped anything for myself!!! That's 'news' na? :) Shopped for Mom's birthday gift. Lotsa things for my aunt and uncle. They are going to USA to meet their son ( my cousin brother), so bought quite a few things for him. Went to the best places to buy all of them. Had to send it to my brother after all you see :). And I'm writing 5 digit accounts (all of them are true ones) :). Now all that's remaining is packing and I'll do it tomorrow.

My co-intern (my friend) caught chicken pox from nowhere yesterday. I agree that we are working in Dermat department. But we had never seen a case of chicken pox till yesterday. God knows from where she got it. Poor girl, she comes to the hospital in the morning with vesicles on her face and stuff and gets diagnosed as chicken pox. Couldn't see the look on her face. :( Miss her at work. Her parents are worried about her health and if whether the scars will remain for long, and this girl is worried about whether she will get leave or will she be marked absent!! Well, in one way , that's genuine you see. If at all she gets marked absent, she will have to do extra duty-days later!!! There is just one leave for every fifteen days as per rules, and she has already availed that before her chicken pox episode. Poor girl, hope she gets well soon and gets leave too :) Get back to work soon gal :)

My sister's been after my life since the past few days to make me lose weight and I'm running away from her. Hate exercising man. But I need to lose some weight sure. Hope I start running on the treadmill soon :) She's got to know that I write a blog and she read it yesterday. She saw dedications for my brother and mom on my blog, and has started nagging me to write something on my blog for her. She says 'it's no big deal' that I've written two poems for her!!! Well, little ones you see!! :) Oh yeah, think of the devil and the devil appears. She's come to my room now saying 'hi, wasup'. I know for sure ki its not just a 'wasup' and there's something more coming up. So I better sign off now and see what mischief she's upto !!!
