THE "MILK" GIRL

What do you think of a five year old kid who lives on milk?No food,only a feeding bottle three times a day...That's me,this pic is mine when I was 18 months old.How do you like it?

At the same time,I was a big "goon" in my friend circle.My cousin,who was a year older than me,was a weak boy.He always said,"Let my sis' come,she'll set you right."When I came to his place(during holidays),most of his bullies woundn't step out of their houses.Such was the goonda-raj.Even 10 year old boys weren't spared.I still remember how I bashed them up,dragging them on stairs by their hair.One of them was a Judoka.When someone told him that we must have a second duel,he cried,"No,not with her."
My parents really began to worry when I didn't eat "solid food" even after I went to school.I consumed about 3.5 litres of milk a day and threw tantrums if it fell short or didn't taste good.My "lunch bottle" of milk was handed to me by a domestic help.It was a daily ritual.One day,the class teacher wrote in my school diary that the Principal wanted to meet my parents.A pall of gloom descended at home when I showed it to mom.The Principal told them the next day,"Please teach your child to eat "solid food".When she drinks milk in school,many children complain at home that they too,must be given milk for lunch.Please try to understand the situation."Eventually,I stopped drinking milk in school.On one occasion,my mom found me drinking milk from my little sis' feeding bottle.This had been taking place for months.I was warned not to do so again.All the while,my poor sister(a few months old) cried for food while I never appeared hungry.My poor sis'!!!I feel sorry for her now!
My pranks stopped only when I felt that I must take care of my younger sister and see that she comes to no harm.I felt responsible for her and perhaps wanted to set an example for her.Once when I was in Standard One,I had stored water in all the vessels I could lay my hand on.The water shortage made it imperative to store water for the entire day.My mom was sleeping then.
Today when I look back,I find I was a very naughty kid and guess what,most of the friends and acquintances refuse to believe it. As for my sister,she's my best friend now.

That was a very interesting insight into your younger childhood days.
I find it hard to believe that a kid on a liquid diet would ever say no to solid food, but I'll take your word for it.

:)

Hi,
My 18-month daughter also refuses to take food most of the days and survives only on milk. And she seems to have enough strength to last the whole day playing. She is not the naughtiest kid but definitely naughty than all her friends in our apartment complex.
Cheers,
Salil

Oh my...i used to hate milk, used to dislike its smell, its taste,everything about it, but before 4, it was my diet...then I left it altogether.
Even today I don't like most of the milk products...
I'm glad you changed though...most 'bullies' do...I was quite a quiet,sensitive,and shy kid who could never open up...I hate somethings about myself when I look back...I suffered because I was complexed by worthless girls and when I started speaking, I realisd none of them could understand what I wanted to say...*sighs*...sometimes...life looks so painful...till a time came when i reverted to my ways...let time change them...im only thankful for what i did...time is changing them :)

MRS DESPATCHER(PART II)

CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS POST… Eighteen months later…. I was beginning to like my work. It was a challenge sometimes. I had learnt to go beyond boundaries. The dreams which had eluded me once, were dawning as reality now. I had my taste of success and as they say nothing succeeds like success. I had developed a knack for solving my own problems. One day , I chanced by a couple who were seated in a corner of the quaint little coffee shop. I couldn’t believe my eyes…. Divya and Sandip…here of all places. I couldn’t help but confront them. Divya was warmer than ever before and Sandip… I knew he was feeling a bit coy..its so typical of him. But I was more than surprised when he asked me to join them. Though I didn’t refuse, they found me going after five minutes. I invited them for lunch on Sunday. It was a fine Sunday morning and my guests were sharp on time. Divya offered me help in the kitchen and I chose not to refuse. My books kept Sandip busy. She could read my mind and went on with h

A s I was walking , C hoosing the hues of life, R ainclouds made an appearance O n the sunny sky above. S cuttling through untrodden paths, T he narrow bylanes,not a soul around, I was indeed lost - Drops of rain C hased me - but Ahoy! a way was found.

ILLUSIONS OF REALITY...

The more you point out my mistakes, The more you are drawn towards me. The more you try to hurt me, The more you bleed in your heart. The more you run away from me, The more my memories haunt you. The more you want to forget me, The more you are reminded of my presence. The more you want to chase me away, The closer I come to you. The more you hate me, The more you end up loving me. The more you call me an “illusion” The more I dawn as the reality of your life….
