Ramp Walk

While I was struggling with the “R” and my studies wouldn’t let me think anything creative to write, my dear friend, Umang, came to help just like an Angel. I can’t thank her enough for taking out time to write this post! Thank you so much!! 🙂 <3

So, Here it is, another diary entry of the ordinary girl. Lets read it together..

Dear Diary,
Nothing could be as exciting for me as today’s incidence. It’s Fest atmosphere in my college and everybody is equipped with a series of events and workshops. The IT department is organizing a fashion show for the cultural eve. Students had to give their auditions by today itself. My heart jumped out of joy as I heard this news. The model inside me urged to get out of my reticent nature.

I went near the hall where these auditions were going on but had no confidence to face a number of competitors flaunting their beauties and confidence all around. It’s far better to chill out with friends, I thought. Hours passed chirping with them and preparing for the events. But secretly I wished I were this confident to face the auditions as well.
Only a few students were left in the college by the evening, sun has set and the lights were dim. I was passing by the audition hall and found nobody over there, the auditions has got over but I could still hear the music. I went closer and hesitantly stepped inside. Seeing nobody I decided to have a walk with the music in background so as to console my hidden model. After letting down my hair, imagining the audience cheering me up, with straight back, confident smile, I went on! My first ramp walk, unknown with the fact that the judges were watching me standing some where in the dark area. And I was selected! Yayie!

Lack of confidence made me ignore,
The stage the charm I wished for,
But the lonely hall was beckoning today,
And I was there just a walk away!

Ordinary Girl.

  2. It is so amazing when something like this happens. I had no confidence to write until one day someone asked me to write for the local newspaper 🙂

  10. I sang and walked the ramp as part of freshers party in college. And these were something that I had NEVER done before and never knew that I could sing too!! Such incidents truly fill you with warmth and pride. Well done, Nibha 🙂

  11. Oh God! I walked the ramp in high school, during farewell and felt so conscious 😛 But, it is good to try these things out every once in a while, for fun 😀 Nice one, Umang!

  13. sometimes stepping out to test unknown waters do bring good results; I was once assigned the job of anchoring a function at office & being a newbie, I was scared of screwing things up in front of the biggies & even thought of backing out but then a friend boosted my confidence & my job was done smoothly. And now I am asked to do it every now & then and I enjoy it too 🙂

    1. Venturing out new things often works out in our favour, bringing out things that we ourselves didn’t know!
