People observe well when they are waiting. If you're waiitng in a queue, for the bus to come, for the shop attendant to give your change, for the traffic signal to turn to green- it doesnt matter what you re waiting for. At that time, your mind is blank as in you're taking a break from the task you were doin at the moment. But you're still edgy. So to fill in the time, you look around and see what the others around you are upto. could be subconscious too.
couple of days I was waiting like this for my sister's turn to get haircut. The salon was very busy due to it bein a weekend n all. So i waas looking at all the other people waiting with me.
There was the malayali lady who wantd to get her brows done for a company party(i dint know this by watching.we talked. and yea i did use my cunnin to get rid f her as customer. tol her dat her brows looked fine..no need to get it done n all).
thn there was this slim muslim north indian or pak girl who lukd very beautiful n delicate.she offered me seat and all.
then there was this overweight filipino. I kept wondering where she had got her clothes from. I could go and buy from there. She had gairsh makeup on and her hair was so str8 n all..beauty parlor product but i was like why would anyone want to look artificial?? I am 100%*100 sure dat she would look amazing sams makeup. and she looked really sad n all..not sad as in pathetic.sad as in glum expression on face.
and then there were the two sisters from my alma mater. nice malabari girls, only thing was they wrent from malabar. they wr from thrissur.
okie okie
now onto the most interesting..hmm thought-provoking subject in dat alcove of a parlor in the top floor of a mall in the heart of the city..
there was a mother and daughter..now the daughter was a child.hmm maybe around 5-7 yrs old..am bad at guessing ages..anyways she had to be a child cos she was small and all..she wud reach somewhr above my knees i gues..
she was wearing spectacles..the soda glasses thingy..but thing is she loooked SOOOOOOO GROWN UP..i wondered whether she had those height problems n all..lik dwarfism...her face was so mature..it wud hav fit on a girl in 20s..me had to scrutinise her face n actions to identify wheda kid or not..
it set me thinkin dat in this age of middle aged ppl actin immature n stupid and kids too smart n all..hmmm
n with no 'hasty generalisation'..i thot..
kids are like little adults..
adults are like overgrown kids.
hmmmmmm
