Cinderella Effect

This is not a term coined by me but my friend Monali. I suffer from an advanced condition of this Cinderella Effect. Embarrassing as much as it sounds, it's true. Hold on let me explain a bit more.

Right from my childhood and all through my school life, my parents have had this weird habit of making me return home by 7pm, at the most 8 on extremely rare occasions. I don't think I have ever done over nights at any friend's place unless it was far away and it was more convenient staying back. The deadline slowly increased to 10:30 as I went to college and graduated. But by then, the damage had been done. The result is that I can't stay out of home after 11:00.

Pathetic, isn't it? Ya I know. I moved to Baroda. I used to live all alone and had absolute freedom with whatever I wanted to do. What did I do? Nothing! The only days I stayed out was when I went for a night show and the movie ended at 1:00pm. I start fidgeting and getting irritated as soon as the clock strikes 11! I have to get back home! Even Cinderella had till 12 :(

Well such is the tragedy of my life. I plan to change this now, though I am not sure how successful I would be. Maybe if I stayed alone and lived in a place that offered a night life, I could change. Or maybe if I had some inspirational company :D
