after all

Here’s a question I have to pose out of the necessity to feed my mind’s curiosity. But honestly, I mean well and no offense to anyone at all. At all. Okay? Please don't take offense.

I was going through my teenage cousin’s Myspace and browsing through the pictures she took in class. She goes to a co-ad school, so naturally, there are pictures of hormonally challenged boys in it. Some girls were commenting on a particular boy and they were going all gugugagagugugaga over this boy. Me? I winced at the sight of this “drop-dead-gorgeous” “knight in shining armour”.

All freckled, dark (read: burnt, not tanned), pimple-ish complete with baby fat, how can anyone, anyone at all be all smitten with him?

Okay, I’m not being fair, maybe love is blind.

After all, I once owned a boyfriend whom my mother first thought was a drug addict with a beehive as a head.

Okay, I’ll stop blogging about this now. I just realised that I too, had taken the road not taken (read: dated weird partners) so I’m obviously not in the position to tell anyone not to date “freckled, dark (read: burnt, not tanned), pimple-ish complete with baby fat” boys.

Love, might be blind as we think after all, aye?
