read a "profound highly readable" "very moving " book yesterday.
story ran thus.....two sisters...one very beautiful and popular ,other plain boring and bookish.(guess which one i liked?)
beautiful n popular(but frigid) sister marrries Guy-Who-Doesnt-Love-Her n has two kids ....plain n bookish grows up ,gets job,discovers hidden good looks and becomes attractive(they never become beautiful .always attractive)
When she's enjoying new-found prettiness,she falls in love with HorribleGuy, who ultimately breaks her heart.more drama follows ...blah blah
ultimately beautiful sister divorces Husband-Who-Doesnt-Love-Her and becomes happy single and fulfilled
And PlainJane turned Femme Fatale ends up with ,guess who, but highschool crush who never noticed her when she was Plain Jane.apparently he had always found her Attractive...(!!)
i stayed up till 2 reading this........WHY????.
coz i am a sucker for all ugly duckling stories.............and the part where the ex crush cannot recognize her because she is stunning??.......i luuuuurrrrv that part..
real life ,however, is very different (oh really?!!) met ex crush ......
was wearing kurta that was 3 yrs old ,torn and vvv dirty jeans .........on CrazyHair day.with kajal smudged for extra GiantPanda effect.
life ,i tell you , is just not fair.
why couldnt i be a character out of a book and not exist at all(except in book)??
Question:if you could be a character out of a book /movie/play (and would have to do everything the charcter did ..i.e not change story to suit you better....)who would you be?

being a character,
from a book it would b either the robot (forgot the name) who was in the foundation and the robot series, one who knew telepathy (damnit have still not remembered the name) and i would b the main character,this boy(again forgot the name) who was in mr. galliano's circus and he had a dog called lucky.
r. daneel olivaw. and jimmy, i think.
i would be zaphod beeblebrox. or willie wonka.
Death, from The Sandman... obvious, no? i want to be other people, too, but i can't decide which ones.
dev:damn i dont remember name of robot either
samit:whos daneel olivaw?love zaphod and willie wonka..but you can only chose one.
