Scent of a Woman

The hardest aspect of embarking upon an endeavor is consistency. When I started blogging, I thought I’d be full of inspirational ideas and my blogs will attract loads of fan mail. But three weeks down the line, I’ve realized that things don’t always go the way you expect them to. Today I intend to mention about two interesting females who I’ve had the privilege of encountering.

I was contemplating upon a suitable title and thought that Scent of a Woman should neatly suffice. But for perfectionists I’d like to clarify a few points. Firstly I’ve mentioned two women in my Blog. So the title should have been Scents of Women (not Scent because no two women smell the same and women in general figuratively stink, buts that’s a different story) but that would sound unromantic. The second point is that I haven’t actually taken the pains of going out of the way to smell these women.

The one really interesting dame I’d like to dedicate today’s session to be the one and only Garcinia. I had the opportunity of getting to know her in College in my freshman year when we used to have a class together. It is not really hard to get acquainted with someone if you want to. And Garcinia was the sort you’d want to get acquainted real fast (intelligent readers might have now observed the fact that most of my female encounters are attractive). My first impression about this girl was “Hell this Dame has got a Load of Attitude”. Four years down the line it’s hasn’t changed much. Well some things never change. They are best the way they are supposed to be. I mean I can’t imagine Garcinia to be this ‘you come before me’ kinda girl. She’d lose her usp.

She’s an Aries as Aries go. They ain’t self-centered but they find it hard to look through somebody else’s looking glass (although I personally know a few exceptions). I’m sure she’d refuse this statement with all her might as a baseless allegation. Most girls in her class would considered her to be snobbish, but I think she’s got a heart of pure 24karat Gold (not that I’d like to steal it). We’ll no matter how fond I’m of Garcinia, I wouldn’t be an unbiased writer if I’d say Garcinia isn’t Boorish. She’d go out of her way to say things that are sure to hurt people’s sentiments. She’s hurt mine once, after which I’d lost contact with her for sometime. But I’ve now accepted her the way she is.

She is very much unlike Ma Cheri who’s the all caring type, and after knowing G for so long I still have my reservations about her Sanity But at the same time I absolutely sure that she doesn’t mean any harm although Varun feels that she’d do good to get her priorities in order. But again when she says whatever she says, one can’t be too sure whether she really means what she says or says so because it sounds good at that very moment. Hell it’s damn hard to gauge a woman. Females are so complicated. Maybe it’s got something to do with the physiology, but what the hell.

Nevertheless, I shall now refrain from commenting about Garcinia’s psychology or physiology. All this analysis has left my confused and I need time to get my faculties in order. But I can tell you what I appreciate in her. She’s this one girl who is vibrant, vivacious, enthusiastic and full of life. To tell you the truth, being with her makes me feel like a sloth. No, don’t get me wrong. She’s not boring at all. Quite the opposite actually. All my enthusiasm just pales in comparison to hers and considering that I’m quite an enthusiast myself, now that’s saying something.

About two days ago, we had a fruitful conversation on the phone after six months and in spite of all that we talked about I am not quite sure whether she actually likes talking to me. But that’s what makes her so special to me. Her very unpredictability is her trademark. It’s as if she challenges you to find out what is going out in her mind. That’s what makes her so unique. In her very elusiveness lies her appeal. Garcinia, what would you be without your attitude? Just another hot chick down the lane? Now that’s a question, I’m sure even Garcinia would find hard to answer.

The truth is that every attractive lady has something to her apart from her physical charm that makes her so desired in the eyes of a man of substance. And that is a reflection of her character. No man desires a woman who is easy to come by and who is predictable. At the same time a woman who distances herself too much is given up on. The trick is to find a suitable place in between. Most charmers – read Charmers not head turners- come in between these extremities, whether they know it or not now that’s a considerably different issue.

Later I’d like to discuss Sadadosa, a female who get perverse pleasure in damaging her appeal and losing out on the good things in store for her.

But for now, Prost!
