Yes! Fourth semester is finally over! The gracious examiners took pity on my sorry state, both physical and academic wise, and let me go in quickly and wrapped it up quickly too. I am thankful to them, and finally convinced of their humane side, which over the course of 2nd year, I had begun questioning.
But this post is not about academics. Far from that. Just as I was leaving, I saw a sight that captured my senses completely. Ever had a feeling of the sheer beauty of someone enrapturing you so that you wished time could stop forever, just for that moment to last for so much more than that mere second for which it did? I generally have well thought of and set parameters on how I define beauty. Its something that's untouched, no superfluous efforts to look good, just being yourself. And I truly believe that to figure out whether a girl is beautiful, at least in the physical sense (although I rarely define beauty as something in the physical sense, but today is an exception ;-) ), is to see her in a kurta and salwar without makeup. Today was that day. Breathless, that is the only word that I can use.
To date, there are very few girls, if any, that I have called beautiful based on just the physical. But if there is any girl for whom I'd make that exception, she is the one.
That moment will survive me for the better part of the three months of holidays that I'm looking forward to.
To the one with the most beautiful smile ever. Here's a tribute to you. :-)

why do i feel i totally know about the girl you are talking about ??
if she is the one you are talking about then i must tell you that she came to college in a haste that day....who says "haste is waste" ;-)
haha, the difference in perception always remains, and haste there may have been, but beauty is impervious to it all.
