The Cool Quotient

Life till i was 9 yrs old was full of pranks but still innocent.Things for me actually changed when we moved to a better place (at least that's what we thought).It was a very posh locality...rich people, rich lifestyle,rich friends,and poor me....soon i became a part of the new artificial world i had entered...For the first time i actually introduced myself to kid in ENGLISH.No one would say,"Kaisa hai yaar"...or,"Aye popat"..here every1 would say,"Hey man!!wassup man...wat a loser!!!".
Trust me...it made me feel like a wannabe...coz i new it will take me ages to fit into this crowd...and it did take me almost a whole year to be a part of them...
Life back in my new house was not as bad as my new school where people were very different compared to the friends i had made in my previous school it was very difficult for me to break the ice with most of them.One girl i remember who approached me for friendship.We had the same mother tongue so it was fun to talk to her.She was the prettiest girl ever who just swept me off my feet.And now i will talk about one of my closest friends...he met me in a workshop in a theatre and soon we joined the same school...we had allot of things in common...same friends...similar girl interests and everything...but things with him became worse when i suddenly joined a group of spoiled kids....few of them were from my building and the others were through them only...by the age of 12 i started smoking...it definitely was not an ideal life ...but wat can a guy do wen he desperately wants to be "cool"...
