aishy

it's cool how i can spend an entire saturday night (from 6pm to now) watching 60 minutes on yahoo video...i feel good about myself. i don't need parties or whatnots to keep me entertained all the time.

shit, as if i'm a party person in the first place. bleah. just call me a loser lah.

anyway, the highlight of the videos tonight has to be the interview with aishwarya rai...yeah, india's "most beautiful girl in the world". anyway, the part that captured my attention the most, was not the images of her...

bob simon (bs): a lot of americans are gonna find it very curious...but here you are, a career woman, making good money...and you're living at home, with mom and dad.
aishwarya rai (ar): uh-huh, uh-huh *nods in agreement*
bs: you know that americans will find that very strange...
ar: haha. i wouldn't understand why...but that's probably cuz that's the way of life there...would that be generally so? would that be like everybody has to, or does move out? is there like a social rule?
bs: a thirty year old woman in america who has her own career, and is making good money would not be living at home. obviously there are exceptions, but as a general rule...yes.
ar: i just think it's beautiful how we live together as a family...because by virtue of my career, or my professional life, calls upon me to be travelling most times. i mean, we're gypsies, we're nomads. so, you know...coming back home, home would mean living with your family, because there's just that much time that you get to spend with each other...and i cherish it!
bs: so you've never had your own apartment?
ar: where is the need? i mean, we just live together...in an apartment with the whole family.
bs: do you consider yourself an independent woman?
ar: yes, yes...and i don't see the reason why moving away from your family is a statement of independence...

respect.

wow. that part of the interview totally blew me away...and gave me some food for thought too. anyhow, i'm very attracted to woman who are conservative and traditional...and it definitely wouldn't hurt if you looked like aishy here.



too bad she's married already. haha. cheers. =)

Aish is brain+beauty and no nasty scandals against her so far,plus marrying the prince of bollywood whose dad is THE SUPERSTAR of bollywood helps..I really like her. However being an actress in India definately doesn't make her conservative nor traditional, she is considered LIBERAL for India,jus fyi =P
