“You are Grown Up!!” Eeee… Really!!


I must say that this is the sentence that most teenagers must be hearing from their elders. And it’s the worst part I must say. I mean who actually like to grow up. I could look back and have no regrets. All these years when we were small we used to think that what kind of things we would do when we would actually grow up!! We all painted a picture in our head and dreamt of becoming something or the other. But the actual reality seems so different. There comes a great amount of responsibility; we are expected to show certain kind of attitude. I hate all these things. Common think of a world from the point of view of a child. Don’t you miss all those cartoons show? Instead of continuously watching news. Don’t you miss playing with society friends? Instead of discussing studies and careers with your colleagues. I truly believe that an individual should always carry some madness in his/her life because that’s the only thing that can keep one’s innocence alive. It is said that “Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional”. I always think that the world of a child is colorful filled with innocence and joy. People pinching our cheeks, giving kisses etc. it was all fun.


Indeed, growing up has it perks but it’s not an easy job. As a child you have always been in your friendly rather comfort zone and suddenly when you are near your twenties it won’t be the same. Situations against you will grow. You will feel frustrated. You will feel alone. But that’s how you and I must learn. From experiences. Obviously we cannot stop it. We didn’t even realize the journey we have been through, we were just living.  But memories are with us forever. To teach us, to remind us. To show us that growing is a part of life.


Above all even if you all are coming in your twenties, don’t shy to do little mad things u did. Like jumping up on bed, licking your favorite ice-cream, all the silliness and goofiness. Don’t let the child inside you die.

  2. Growing up is a fact of life. But, how one looks at the process of growing up is important. I agree, one need not grow with stress and pressure on one's self and unwarranted excessive maturity. One has to scale up with sense of responsibility keeping gradual progress. At the same time, under the guise of growing up and losing childhood, one can not escape also.

We miss you Grand mom!

That day, 31 st august, 2013; mom came in my room and in a heartbreaking tone she ordered me to shut off the T.V. I probably knew the reason but never wanted that to come true. As soon as I entered my grand mom room she lost all her senses. Did I really lose her? Was she no more in this world? I stood there; unable to move myself and trying to believe the reality! Tears came from my eyes. Everything stood still for me. I wish she lived more. I cried in an empty room remembering each and everything she did for me. My grandmother. More than a grand mom she was equal to my mom. I spent 19 years of my life with her. She pampered me like no one else and she probably had a hand in spoiling me and making me so stubborn. She used to tell me stories and sing lullabies every night to make me sleep till I turned 15. She would feed me at times when I had a row with my parents and she always fought with mom and dad to support me. She encouraged me even in studies and every time I used to ach

Book Review #1

Just Friends :D While searching for a fiction book to read at my sis’s place, my eyes suddenly stuck at the title "Just Friends" by Sumrit Shahi. The title itself forced me to pick up that book from the bunch of other fictions. And in the end all I could say is it was the best choice. Not because I was so willing to read it, but it was related to my life in some way. Whenever we talk about a romantic novel, we talk about Nicholas Sparks. When it comes to "Indian Authors" and "Love Stories", I stay away. But as soon as I read out the synopsis of the book, I couldn't wait to read it. It defines the same old question "Can a girl and a boy be just friends?" This question because at the end of the day a bond is formed; a bond secure enough to make us so habitual about each other. There are so many movies and books that defend that a guy and a girl can never be friends. The author has indeed penned down a straight from a heart

Minimalism

\   Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication -Leonardo Da Vinci Living a simple life has always fascinated me. My life revolves around my friends and family. They are enough to give me all the enjoyment I need. I do not require materialistic things to complete me. I am neither a fashion buff nor I have craziness about branded clothes. I get whatever I demand from my dad. Even though I am simple like other I celebrate my birthdays with huge cake, hang out with my friends often, and splurge on a nice hotel. I do all that makes me happy.   But sometimes we often complain of not having contented life. We compare our lives with our neighbors or friends or other family. Due to all this I see a world around me everything ballooning out of shape. Cars are the size of school buses, houses are as big as convection centers, shopping mall are the size of pentagon. It seems greedy to take more than my share of water, electricity, gas, ozone, food and goods. I think bigger is blander,
