Hits and Mrs. :)

So now that I've been married for a week and almost settled into my new life (not quite, but started still). I thought it's a good time to pick up the updates again. So while my husband is happily playing DoTA (Don't beleive me? Well.. I can't prove it.. but I'm not lying) it seemed to be a good time to type away. I wont say I was short of matter to write today that I'm refrencing one of my old posts, but this was the initial list of fears, I must address them shouldn't I?

So remember sometime back in February when I had shared the things that were bugging me regarding this whole wedding business, today seems to be a good time to look at them in retrospect.


1. What if I fall while on my way to the stage?

I almost did!! Well not on the way to the stage, but while getting off it :) ... Yeah lucky save it was. But you see my fear was not baseless.

2. What if he doesn't want to share his closet space with me? Where do I keep my clothes?

Again my fears were validated, he didn't. But lucky for me there are two closets in this house. So while there is one room which he has very shamelessly occupied as his own (where I am sitting right now while he plays DoTa) I was lucky to get the spare closet in "OUR" room.

3. What if he doesn't want to share his house with me? Would he drop me home everyday even after we're married 'cz he doesn't like the "additional people" in the house?

This I agree was stupid :) He's alright with sharing the house. I'm guessing it's probably because he's getting cooked food.

4. Can I not ever wear my current clothes ever again? Will I only have to wear new clothes? What happens to all the ones I've collected till now? Oh God!! This can't be happening.. Wait a minute this should have scare point number one!

Well, this one holds true for now :( I left my old clothes at my parents' house and haven't been there since last Monday so yes this fear is slowly and steadily turning out to be true. Jitters.....

5. Everybody else looking prettier than me at my wedding

Ha!! Fat Chance!!! I looked awesome at my wedding!! And yes modesty is not my best virtue.. but honesty is :D

6. Wearing a sari to office (Oh no wait.. I am actually looking forward to it.. strike that :P )

I wish I could say I did wear one to office (Yup I started office yesterday.. Lame you say? What do you know I'd say :P) but there was one minor(major) problem, the new house does not have a mirror. Yes! This is what happens if you move into a boy's house. It is completely woman unfriendly. I've been getting ready partly looking at the shaving mirror in the washroom and partly at the office. So even though I tried my best to tie one without a mirror, I failed and hence I haven't yet worn a saree to office.

7. Not being able to eat the golgappas being served at my own wedding

I couldn't :( and breaks my heart into a million little pieces. I couldn't eat golgappas at my own wedding! Oh no.. now I want to eat golgappas now.. how on earth am I going to find golgappas at 1o clock at night!

8. Having to run the house all on my own

This one could be called premature as I've only been doing it in reality for two days; but I'm liking it :)

9. Being responsible of a household

Power corrupts :P I like being my own  boss :D

10. Being the go-to person for everything in the house ( Reminds me of the time (5 minutes ago) when solution to every problem is shouting mommie at the top of my voice)

Not many people have sought my advice in the new house yet, given that this is more like a Robinson Crusoe  and Friday kind of situation, this fear can be subsided for a bit

11. Not getting mom-cooked food daily :(

This would have hurt, but then turns out I can also cook like my Mom.. Yay!! But that doesn't by any means imply I don't miss her food. It's hard work, I knew when I didn't do it on my own, appreciated her then and now I appreciate her even more

Is it just me? Or you think I'm more scared of having to work more than anything else??

12.Living with a boy..

As I've already mentioned, this house doesn't have a mirror. Till yesterday night didn't have a nail cutter either. Everything one could need in the kitchen was on the counter (Yes everything). I think you got the gist :)

13. Not understanding Bengali.. worst not knowing when I'm being made fun of!! My in-laws are nice people they wont do that.. but I wont know any way, will I?

I must learn bengali, I absolutley must! It's not fun being talked about in third person when you are actually sitting right there in the centre of the group. You think I'm exaggerating? Well.. I'm not!

14. Being referred to as aunty by random kids.. wait a minute that happens anyways.. So I guess it's OK :P

Aunty hasn't happened yet.. but yes bhabhiji has happened, and I didn't now who was the shop keeper referring to until I realized I was the only female in the vicinity. Needless to say, I'm almost a matrmonial advert. model right now with all the possible marriage stamps on me, both North Indian and Bong. And what does Mr. Sen have? His old T shirt and shorts! Gender Bias I tell you!

15. Being asked very uncomfortable questions.. where in adults make jokes at the newly weds expense :|

It's too soon for this I guess, or maybe they were cracked in Bong I dont know... (Must learn Bengali quick!!)

16. Having to kill the pests in my new house on my own, but my dad does it, so that means he'll have to do it.. OK so this is covered then :D

I did squash a few ants today if that counts ;)

17. Acting all grown up and wise

Isn't that tough :D Nobody has caught my bluff yet :D

18. Having to play DoTa...

I will not succumb, I began this post by explaining the current house situation, while he plays Dota I'll whatever I please and he can't stop me

19. ... and liking it :/

Nope! Not happening yet!

20. Living without my mommie :(

I miss me mommie.. I do.... what to do:(
