Late Night Ponderings

Though I might not have. A huge fan following, I think it's not a problem. All this blog does for me is to allow me to relax and spill my guts. People who read this don't know me and I don't know them. Which is the best part of it all.  My nights are spent watching dramas and movies. While this might sound petty it really isn't. One needs a lot of patience to watch movies and dramas online. The movies have to be steamed or downloaded!!! The torture!! However there are so many other things which happen when I'm awake at night. There is always one or another friend awake complaining about something or the other.  But apart from that sometimes the time at night is for me to unwind and not reply to anyone. The family is asleep, other people that I have to answer to are asleep. All in all it's the only time in the day where I am by myself. While some people might not appreciate this time alone, I genuinely do.... Also it's the time when I can have someone all to ...

On Again Off Again

I don't understand men! Like I really don't. I thought I did, but I really don't. How does a guy who is supposedly engaged to the love of their life flirt with another girl?? In what world or reality does this seem to be alright?? No I'd really like to know? Or how does someone sleep with a girl tell her she's not the one and then ask her to hav phone sex with them?? There is no way that people would get that stupid. Over time I have seen sooo many different types of people that I have found out that underneath the surface all people are the same. Their basic desire and their basic needs are the samne. And there is ko denying all this. People just don't get to change how they feel about something if they are not capable of recognizing why they feel that way. But how does a guy or a girl cheat in someone? How do men and women justify cheating on their counter part? I believe that for women it is due to neglect. But I don't think men would understand that. To ...

Long Time No See

Hello to all the people out there who will by chance glance at my blog!!! Been away for a while!!! Life has become really hectic and rushed. Honestly don't know how people manage to make time for anything other then work and studies. But in the end we all have to fulfill what are supposed to do. For a quick recap on what has been happening..... I got a JOB in a place which works your ass off, but I still LOVE it!!! For some odd reason, I like working like a mule. Also over the past few months that I have been missing, I can't seem to stay completely free. I met new people, who invariably made a HUGE impact on my life. But all that for later!! Be Patient!!!!! Changed the manner in which I dealt with people in a major way.... Yes I know that was a long time coming..... And last but not the least, I have finally managed to get my life in a good place............. Well let's start from the beginning, I got a JOB!!!! I am a grown ass person now!!!!! Yes it sounds like a ...

The Break-Up Story

Its been some time ago since I had to really think about something like this: breaking up. We human beings need to be surrounded by relations at all times. There is not a moment when a person would want to be alone and without people to care for them.  Apart from being married, another relationship title which is a huge thing is being a couple. Romantically involved as some would say.  Well these relationships are a land mine. This is not a bitter realization which I suddenly came across, no, this has been in my head since I was old enough to acknowledge things around me. Till now through life all I have learned is that relationships are not as easy as they look on the outside.  It's true that while a marriage is hard to break, a romantic relationship is much easier. Couples might spend years and years together and still not get married. While some couples might be together for only a short period of time and decide to get hitched.  While making a relationship w...

Awkward

I have always been a great television buff. May it be local series or international ones, I latch on to the story and do not let go till it has finished. A week back, my sister nagged me to death to watch a new series, 'Awkward'.  It is a show aired by MTV network. The story might sound a bit cliched, however, it can be related to very easily. The story is about a girl who is not so high on the social ladder, in high school.  It starts from an accident the girl is in, and how the story of the accident gets distorted. This leads to the girl coming in the lime light more than she can ever imagine.  Even before the accident, she was pining over the popular guy. It is surprising how the guy also likes her back, however, he is not ready to make his affections public!!!!! Surprise, Surprise. This might sound a bit generalized, but aren't all guys the same in this manner. Even thought girls are thought to be the shy and timid gender, it is the guys who don't like to...

Monsoon Wedding

Hey all, sorry for the long gap. I was really busy in the wedding season that has just kicked off in my city. It might be hard to believe that my best friend just got married yesterday. :D We are all very happy for her, as she had been in a relationship with her husband for the last 6 years. Long time!!!!  Weddings are an amazing occasion. Meeting old friends, getting in touch with all the friends who you have been wanting to meet since so long. The colors, the happiness and all the hoopla of friends meeting and the ones getting married. In my culture weddings are a huge affair. There are dances, songs, dresses, bridal showers, and four functions for just the wedding.  Yes this might sound amazing. But it is fun and hectic all at once. Our weddings are a huge affair. There is nothing like having a house full of people, who are all pumped up on the wedding. There is no concept of a Bridezilla in our culture.  Instead we have a nightmare of a time dealing with the...

Me and My Chocolates

Image
As far as I can remember, I have been an avid chocolate eater. I use the word avid and not addicted for a reason. There have been chocolate droughts in my life through time.   But let us get to the main point here, chocolate is my life. This may sound dramatic, but this is true. No matter what I have tried over the years, to not be the cliched girl, who can not miss out on chocolate, I have not been able to succeed. I have never had a bad break up, so there is no reason other than the pure joy of eating chocolate. It has been found out that chocolates create alot of happy feeling chemicals in our brains!!!!! But with consequences with eating chocolates are huge. To my horror, chocolates are not as innocent as they look. As we move forward, different types of chocolates come to light. But there is no beating the regular and classic chocolates, which have been around for ages. Who am I to deny my body the pleasure of eating chocolates. As I grew older, I learned to control the ur...

Ella Enchanted

There is always a story which has a special meaning in our lives. Or there is always a fairy tale which we can easily relate to. This might not be the case for boys, but for girls, fairy tales are what make our dreams begin.  I was around 12 or 13 when I first read Ella Enchanted. It went straight to my heart. It was the first story which made my heart melt. It was 'the' fairy tale for me. I was so crazy about it, that I must have read it countless times. I had first found it in my school library. Since I could not find a copy of it in any of the stores around me; I then found it online to read. The blessings of the internet.  Let me start with the story line. For those who have not read the book, might have watched the movie. But let me tell you, the movie does not even hold a candle to the book. The book is a world which the reader can disappear into. I wish that I could be there with the characters, as they go through the many different problems put in front of them....

Out of a Dream

Dreams are all about what you might want from life, but are not aware of it yet. As time goes by adults stop putting much store in the foundation of dreams. People disregard what they dream about and what their dreams are. Dreams are just that dreams. Things or ideas which you might aspire for. Without dreams, not much can be innovated or achieved.  Dreams have always had a special place in my life. I have a deep belief in the dreams which come to me at night and the dreams that I dream by day. They both are a part of who I am as a person. They are what will shape me as a human being. Or so I hope. The thing with dreams is, that they are highly fickle. They don't have a set pattern or a basis in reality and practicality. It falls completely upon me to give my dreams a practical face.  This is where the going gets tough. How can I turn something which is just an idea or a thought from my subconscious into something that can be tangible in my life? Just thinking about thi...

Man of Steel

Being with someone is always a battle. There is always something new which you might encounter about the person. People might think that living with the same person gets boring after sometime. However, that is not true. At all!!!! Through my journey of the last six years, the only constant thing that I have learned is that people change CONSTANTLY!!! There is always something new to find out about the person you are with.  'My Man of Steel' is a man who has never let me get bored. We fight everyday. And no that is not a gross exaggeration. My friends abandoned me early on in the relationship just because of the reason that we fight everyday. Well so far we have been going strong for the past six years.  I could not ask for a man who is better for me than him. It might sound a bit exaggerated, but it is true. there is no man in this world who knows me more than my better half. I am an avid television viewer. It is my sole time pass when I do not have anything to work at. But...

The Venture into Venting

Writing is just this way of venting. Talking to people is not as easy as writing. Over the very many years that I have been around, I have always heard that writing makes everything better. Well this is what I am going to try now. It has been many many years with me just trying to be a better version of myself. At times I try to be the version of myself which others would want.  The thing with living is that it is not a fairy tale. I wish it was. I grew up hearing all these fairy tales. I grew up having a very vivid image of what my knight in shining armor would be like. But I think that thinking about such things just messes with your head. Just like it has messed with mine. There is nothing worse than having all these expectations; expectations from your friends, family, your better half; and then having them thrown away.  As human beings we are given the boon of living with expectations. Expectations which you  have of others and expectations which others have of y...
