What I realized during the last 24 years is that a lot of foreign beings have no idea where or what Sri Lanka is!!! telling them that its near India doesnt help either, most people know India as the land of babul,tikka masala and people with really really bad body odor.. but they have no idea where it is on the world map. Life gets even more difficult because we are a dot right under India. (sigh Its depressing innit... )
I had to spend two whole hours shampooing my hair while listening to that "your hair is everywhere" song by Dashboard Confessional to get it !!!.and I finally got it!!!
I figured out how to explain where Sri Lanka is !! (FYI :: I didn't rush out of the bathroom all naked and soaped up, I wish I did.... but then again nooo... not many people like to see me with clothes on.. just imagine what itll be like for them to see me without em... )
Its very simple.. Let me give it step by step
1. Ask them to get a world map
2. Get them to spread it (I mean the map... )
3. Ask them to look for a country that looks like a giant jangiya, aka underwear (Everyone knows bout undies so theyll find it in no time)
4. Once they`ve found the granny panty that is India ask them to look for a small dot right below it (dont tell them its the dot below the underwear.. tell them its the dot below the country that looks like an underwear that we so lovingly call India)
