17 and counting..

It's exactly 11:01. Precisely 59 minutes before I'm officially declared 17 and sexy(by the Department of Hotties). And it just seized me, IT'S BEEN 17 YEARS. It's the sort of windy stroke that the West Wind( metaphor for birthday) brings followed by the silence speaking, have these 17 years been any worthwhile? (swish)
So I thought I'll try to make a list. Of seventeen things I'm happy I've done in life, that have made my life pretty, pink and prized. Drop in a congratulatory note if I do manage to reach 17.

So....

1. Dated(ing) my best friend
2. Learnt how to dance
3. Endeavored to and succeeded a little in being like my brother
4. Pursued science
5. Have the best memories of family vacations
6. Kissed the rain. Every time
7. Never hurt anyone or at least tried my best not to
8. Loved all my sisters and been the ultimate bridesmaid
9. Started to write
10. Always, without any exception felt bad about lying
11. Learnt to play the guitar
12. Cried in my mother's lap whenever I'm sad
13. Fantasized about love, life and everything nice
14. Forever worked hard and been a scholar student
15. Brought a smile to my parents' lips
16. Made one-in-a-million friends with one-in-a-million beating hearts
17. I still have 59 minutes right?

  1. number 10 is something very mature to achieve, like foraying from unconscious incompetence into conscious incompetence, something i myself haven't experienced.
    And a very happy birthday. May you always wield the pen (while learning to palm the scalpel, metaphorically speaking) and keep bringing these little masterpieces...
