Redefining,rediscovering and reinventing myself.

 A 22 year old beautiful, carefree, fun loving woman looking for the best things in life without having to work for them. I want someone who can be able to predict my desires before me and be in a position to fulfill them.  If you meet these criteria, I promise to make worth your while. Interesting parties should call 0712345678. No jokers please.

That is a personal ad of a very desperate woman …me. Desperate times call for desperate and if things don’t change soon, that’s what you’ll see in the lonely hearts corner. If you actually bump into this ad, it means we are in the same boat. Why else would you be waltzing around that part if you weren’t looking for something? But I wouldn’t judge you.

Since am a very nice person (yes, nice…the kind who’ll bake you cookies when you come over and send you a card every holiday) I decided to look some of the most hilarious personal ads ever. Here they are in no particular order.

• Ploughing the loneliest furrow. Nineteen personal ads and counting. Only one reply. It was my mother telling me not to forget the bread on my way home from B&Q. Man, 51.
• Slut in the kitchen, chef in the bedroom. Woman with mixed priorities (37) seeks man who can toss a good salad.
• I've divorced better men than you. And worn more expensive shoes than these. So don't think placing this ad is the biggest comedown I've ever had to make. Sensitive F, 34.

I know you are wondering what sparked this personal ad story. Well, a couple of days ago, I met a guy called Paul who asked me who I was. So I told him what I do and froze up after that... I couldn’t think of anything else that could describe me who I was except that.  He asked me why am doing my graduate work a few months after graduation. My answer was very simple…I couldn’t get a job. But I know that wasn’t a great excuse. The truth is I have been too lazy to look for a job.

So when I got back to this shitty little place called my room, I started thinking about what he said. My life has really changed in the past few years. So much so, that I sometimes feel like some part of my being is gone and it’s been replaced by something from a galaxy far away.

I still talk a lot, am still lazy but I forgot how to dream. A few years back, I could close my eyes and picture my life in this tropical island where I had servants who even had servants. But all that has been replaced with a need to settle. Nowadays my dream has been replaced with “I wish I get to visit a tropical island at least once in my life.”

I hate that I have to compromise what I want. I know this happens to a lot of people, but I never pictured it would happen to me.

My journey in finding a new me begins now. HAN, NEW AND IMPROVED...in stores soon.
