Is it me or does that girl really look good?!

I am sure if you are a guy this question would have crossed your mind, in some cases if you are a girl ;) . The point I want to share is, I have seen girls who at one point of time doesn't make an impact on you. By impact I mean impression. There are girls who has an "oomph" factor in them, and there are girls who gains respect on the first look, and there are girls who never comes to your notice(no offense). 

Being in a college which has more than 1000 students in a particular academic year, I have come across girls who belong to all the 3 categories. In college the "oomph" factor girls are like celebrities! If they talk to you or if they walk on the other side of the road in the same direction, you mind automatically start playing a heroic background music!! From what I have noticed in my life after college , mostly through the social networks(read face book :P ) available, how else do you think one could be in touch with so many people :P …  yeah from what I have noticed is that these "oomph" factor girls totally disappear, is it cause they are dumb? Not knowing how to use a computer? Married early? I can't put my finger on it!! 

Now comes into picture the girls of the respect and unnoticed category! What happened to them?! Well, they get into a good job, uses the social networks to stays in touch. And guess what they start look good!! I'm not sure how many of you will agree but I can voice for 70% of the guys I think. Now you start wondering what happened to them in college?! Seriously?! In college she would have been just another girl and now If you see her profile picture you start cursing your eyes for betraying you! This is the story of how a "unnoticed becomes a oomph(at least at an extent oomph)", She joins the social network with a profile picture of an actress or a baby or a flower, and sends request to friends who she knows, next step she uploads a picture which shows her face from side angle, the best of picture she ever had so far! Well you know guys, she starts receiving friend request from guys who she knows only by name. She then realizes that she has more that 300 friends in the account and has not changed her profile picture in months, she walks into a beauty parlor and straightens her hair! Next go to a branded shop get a nice pair of jeans and a designer t-shirt/tops. Goes to a nice coffee shop/restaurant/picnic with friends  gets her photo clicked!! She also learns to do "touch ups" before leaving home! :P . You must have noticed I have mentioned "hair straightening" as first point, I strongly believe it is the first step towards getting "oomph" factor! It is becoming a common weapon used to get guys attention! Straighten your hair and leave a strand of hair fall on your face, guys will  look at them for sure! And heights is when you have a girl as good friend from college who doesn't fall into "oomph" category and when she tells you about proposals she is getting!! :o  You start believing that 2012 is the world's end! You look her photo twice and realize that she has become pretty, but she will always remain as the one who gained your respect on first look! 

All being said, another important point is that, when guys are out of college they know what their potential/reach/capability is. May be, when a guy is out of college he reduces his standards/bars out of frustration? Realization? Or both? for the good?  I guess these are questions even "Google" cannot answer!

Cheers!

The little widget on the right says that you are the next JK Rowling... If you ever get crazy rich, do not forget me ;)

From my experience, if I happen to know an ordinary girl for more than 5 years, they easily morph and movie into the super hottie category... And my heart is in soup...

Hotness is directly proportional to the time spent with the girl

Kram said...

@Doc: next JK. Rowling?! :P :D widget is mad! and interesting hotness increases? i thought hotness factor disappears after you know that person !! :)

Ramanathan Kannan said...

Of course hotness increases with time. For example, on first sight, you just notice the bare essentials. After 2 years, you tend to notice that the girl's nose elongates when she lies ( a la Pinocchio ) and you tend to fall in love :) <3

Kram said...

I guess everyone has their own definition for "hotness" :)

Pretty true vikram........ :)
Good post as always..... :)
One thing to add up - There is a period for everyone(yes everyone.!!) when they look so beautiful and it will go off with time.
Good Looking -> Beautiful -> Good Looking.........
Normal -> Good Looking(we say them beautiful now)-> Normal...
Its like an ideal Normal Distribution graph.... :)

Kram said...

:) somehow i have to agree with you senthil... there is a phase when girl does look "Beautiful" :) but normal distribution?!! :o you lost me ;) hee hee!

SenthilKumar said...

:) I feel u had someone in your mind when u wrote this....... are u dedicating this post to someone??? ;)

Kram said...

I had lots of girls on mind when i wrote this ;) girls we both know :D dedicated to all those girls ;)

Unknown said...

Dai...really good one da...very true about the hair straightening...these days even girls, we all of us, are really getting concious about applying make up(read lipstick, mascara etc)..and many of them are really looking good...i met a couple of them during sri ram's reception and i went like ...hey is it that ugly girl...?..:)


on another note...i personally feel that these changes are something they would not even heard of/dared to try when in college..i guess financial independence coupled with reduced monitoring parents has emboldened them to try out new things..what else to start with than tinkering with their looks...:)

Kram said...

Thanks palani :)

Totally agree with you, financial independence of the biggest reason :)

Unknown said...

Kram said...

A very nice writeup :) .... but would like to mention girl's point of view here :P .........that this write up is valid for guys too... :D .... now-a days.. people r more consious abt their looks..n experiment with it .. .(hair straightening is one amongst d gals thz days :P)..guys too experiment with their hairstyle and shave styles .... every1 wants to look beautiful n attractive.. n with time they learn to groom themselves...so i thnk thts y its obvious that..people start looking good...after sometime ...and financial independence certainly adds a confidence to one's personality ... :)

Kram said...

@Ramana: Thanks, yes "Jill,Jung,Juck!" :)

@Neha: Thanks, I do agree with your point, but most of the time guys experiments goes unnoticed unlike girls ;) :D
