Love in the train

I looked outside the window from my train compartment loaded with irritating co-passengers who were shouting at the peak of their voices as my gaze rested  on the beautiful scene mother nature had painted outside.I was digging a blissful state of nostalgia. The rain had made everything appear beautiful. I saw the raindrops dance on the window as they connected dots.
Then suddenly my gaze shifted to a three year old boy who was eating a biscuit from a packet. Hid mother was constantly bickering at him for dropping the tiny pieces on his shirt and not offering his biscuits to others. But he didn't budge.

Then, a girl of about his age entered our compartment with her tiny fingers clutched around her fathers hand. She was wearing a frock in the lightest shade of pink and had her hair tied in two ponytails. She looked extremely adorable.

I questioned her what her name was. "Ariya". She replied shyly as she hid behind her father.

"Ariya do you want a biscuit?" said the little guy who was in my compartment as he handed her a biscuit from his packet.
"Thanks!" She said coyly as she picked up a biscuit from the packet. Both of her cheeks were red now.

Then they started a conversation which wasn't audible to me but I had fun looking at the cute couple in my compartment.
I wish love could be as pure as this. The guy who didn't offer biscuits to anyone else, went up to the girl and offered her one. It left me in Awing for the rest of the day and my grin took to my ears.
Small positive incidents like this, make life worth living!

Perfect is a part of 'imperfect'


Pinkish, tall, fair, homely, highly educated is the description of a perfect bride according to matrimonial columns. Honestly, these perfect bride and groom wanted descriptions make me laugh. Cause people seek for perfection without first attaining themselves!

Look at your reflection in the mirror. Do you have almond shaped eyes or a perfect size zero figure?or are you 5'9 ? If the answer is no, you cannot expect your partner to be a strait-from-heaven match! Imperfections are a part of life and necessary for sustenance and should be accepted positively.

One thing which i strongly criticize about disney fairytails is the perfect groom/bride factor. It gives us the idea of a prince charming by focusing more on his physical appearance. It has always evoked me provokingly that can't we have a fairy tail which shows us how to find perfection in imperfections. Then Shrek came. My favorite movie in which two 'imperfect' people find their 'perfect' match and live happily ever after!

The core of my blog is that don't seek for perfection in others nor try to change them. Their is beauty in imperfection too. So don't look for a perfect person, but the right one :)












Curious as a cat-III

1) If you could have any job in the world, what would it be?
I would have loved to say a CA or something as cliched as that, but that is something I can achieve wit my own capability! So I would like to host a travelling show on television.


2) Would you rather be ugly and marry a good looking person or be good looking and marry an ugly person?
I would rather be good looking and marry a ugly person! Sense of security is important. Besides money plays a large role in this decision! (hehe :D)


3) What is the dumbest thing people do to make themselves better-looking?
Guys spike their hair and apply gel to it (gross) and girls apply lipstick shades which don't suit them. Besides, they go for super expensive cosmetic treatments.


4) Do you express how you feel or do you keep it inside?
It largely depends on my company and mood. Generally, I don't keep my things to myself.


5)What bothers you most in other people, generally?
Poor hygiene, Ego, I-don't-want-to-mingle attitude and  superiority complex.

The 'wilder' side of me

I being a 15 year old teenager caught in the web of numerous problems and commitments forget how to live life my way sometimes.I swing 'unpredictably' between eccentric and efficient. My eyes dry up completely and face becomes pale. I tend to forget that i am just a normal teenager and this is the stage in which I can live my life completely.

Today while on my way back from a friends birthday party, I behaved in a way which surprised me too. I sat on the seat of the bus accompanied my some other friends behaving like civilized passengers. I suddenly had the urge to sing out loud. So i cleared my throat and started singing like a retard.

Lipstick ka thappa lagati hai galon pe smooch marke...oh meri jaan! oh meri jaan!


Heads turned and eyes popped in amusement. My friends pretended as if they didn't know me. Some people giggled with me while others twitched their nose in disgust. The conductor seemed to enjoy it too! No wonder he didn't ask me to shut up :p

So I returned home with a broad grin on my face today. I truly didn't behave like a civilized citizen but it was more significantly 'me'. And sometimes its important to forget everything and just let yourself go! Instances like this make life worth living. It made me seem like a retard..but who cares? Everyone seemed to enjoy it! Half the job done :)

So this was a wilder side of me. And i realize this 15 year old still has the ability to surprise herself and others sometimes :)

Strong girls don't cry

She clutched her huge pink teddy almost of her size in her tiny arms and hid her face in his fur. His soft furry coat absorbed the tears which rolled down her cheeks. She could clearly hear her mom and dad shouting and abusing at each other even through the closed doors.
But she stopped herself from crying.
Because strong girls don't cry....

When she went in school, her seniors came upto her and forced her to buy a Cold drink from the money she was supposed to buy her lunch. They snatched money from her clutched fist and she couldn't do anything. She stool there motionless. She stopped the storm of emotions which was about to find its way through her eyes.
Because strong girls don't cry..

She survived on bread and butter for three days when her parents had separated and she had to live with her dad. Her new mom didn't have time for herself, let alone her step-daughter. She took out time from her studies and cooked for her and her dad. But she held back her emotions.
Because strong girls don't cry.

Her voice choked and words couldn't find a way out of her mouth when her Best friend told her to stay away and find new friends instead. The only support she had, was cruelly snatched by fate. Her voice quivered and her eyes watered. But she stopped herself from crying.
Because big girls don't cry....


This is for the girl I know, who didn't cry even after facing so much in her life at a very young age. She inspires me and i totally look up to her. I wish that big girl could lighten up her burden and pain, only if she could cry.

Curious as a cat-II

1) When have you been the most silent?
There was a phase in my life, when I hardly spoke. Even if someone asked my name, I would mumble something which would sound like a verbal car crash!

2)Describe your favorite outfit. Why is it your favorite?
My favorite outfit is a white color forever new dress cause I shed a lot of wallet on it!


3) Which is the nicest place you have ever stayed?
Ooty! No second thoughts. Who wouldn't like travelling on horses and ponies and living on hills?


4) Would you rather be 4'5 or 7'7?
I'd like to be 7'7 so that I can bash up all people who make fun of me being 5'2...hehe!


5)What is your favorite comfort food and why?
Anything good cooked by my mom! Probably sabudane ki khichdi, methi ka paratha or a regular sized burger from McDonald's.

Battling inner evils

I realize that every dawn brings a new set of opportunities for you to explore and one must make best use of it. We often try to change others by pointing out their mistakes and highlighting their negativity. But how often do we ourselves take the charge and battle our inner evils? Ask ten people around you what qualities of yours do they dislike and would suggest you to change. Jot them down on a list of paper and try to improve everyday. I did it a few weeks back and got a much more pleased 'me'. Battling your inner evils is a great experience, trust me.
Become wiser.
