Things to do in Quarantine Period

Image
            Reading Time: 4 minutes (Approx)             Hello lovelies, I hope you all are doing fine. If you all are like me, you all would also be tired of seeing images of friends and celebrities doing "productive things" in the quarantine period,  and then you look at yourself and shrink back in your shell, and think what the hell am I doing? Why am I wasting my time when people are being so productive?             Sometimes it is okay to slow down in life and do nothing. We constantly face competition from the people around us and it sometimes get too much. And I feel quarantine is not the period for thinking about what others are doing and then you self doubting yourself. Don't we face that enough in normal times?              You have to realise the power of now. The only thing that you have in hand is NOW and please don't waste that by thinking what others are doing now and then changing your schedule according to it.             Just be thankful for what you

Ghost Story

Having a morning college is bad, but having morning college on Saturday's is the worst combination ever. When everyone is sleeping and you have to go to college because you are short of attendance. Related right, maintaing your attendance was the biggest stresser you had. The same happened to me as well. I had my first lecture at 7, so I had to wake up  by 5:30 and leave by 6:10 to reach college by 7:00.  It was a Saturday morning and that to in winters, where you just wanna sleep and I half awake went to have a shower, and there was a knock on the bathroom door. I thought it must be my sister or someone, so I opened the door and found no one there. Then I again closed the door and thought it must be my imagination because just the previous night we had watched a horror movie and I am super scared to watch them. And then again there was a knock and now I was scared, like you cannot imagine the same thing again and again. So I again opened the door and again there was nobody. An

Needy or Greedy?

Are people becoming  insensitive towards others or is it only me who feels that way? So I was just going to the station  the another day and on my way there were some beggars who were sitting there and with them there was a middle aged man carrying his son on his shoulders and asking for money and just like me many people just ignored  them and went ahead. And after I crossed them I was wondering why have I become so insensitive to other people and most importantly these disabled people who beg in trains and on the streets. There were many reasons that popped into my head the main reason was: I don't know if you have read or heard about it but in the recent past, there were many news coming on this that there is a big association behind these beggars and most of them were not disabled but they were turned into one. These people are either kidnapped or are street children. And as a human being will  have sympathy for these disabled people and will give them money,they will kid

Chocolate Boy

If anyone now asks me what kind of a life partner I want in my life, I have my list ready like the person should be honest and caring and other such humanly things. But as a child if anyone asked me, what kind of a partner I wanted, I always told that I wanted a person who owns a chocolate factory, so I have unlimited supply of chocolate all my life. And I would just imagine myself eating all the chocolates and imaging myself being in a chocolate park. I was so crazy behind chocolates that my school bag was always stuffed with chocolates. Whenever I used to go out, it became mandatory to buy a chocolate. And so I thought I needed a "Chocolate Boy" in my life. But then as I grew older, chocolates became less favorite and stationery items become close to my heart. So then of course now you can guess, I wanted to have a partner who owned a stationery factory. And then as my favorites kept on changing, my definition of a "perfect partner" also kept on changing.

Skin Care Routine(Pocket Friendly)

Image
From the very beginning I had   never given importance to skin care, I always thought that washing my face was enough and I don't need to do anything else. But lately I have realized that my skin also needs to be taken care of and so to know more about skin care I started to watch YouTube videos. And in the videos I found the products to be extremely expensive and they were literally not pocket friendly. Then I did a bit of research on Google and then here is finally a pocket friendly skin care routine. It is found that doing skin care at night is very good for your skin; your skin gets time to heal itself. To get started you will only need 5 things; a face wash, makeup remover (only for those who apply makeup), toner, moisturizer and lip balm. Before getting started, remove the makeup and then we need to wash our face, and massage our face for a minute or so and then rinse the face with water. Then pat dry your face and then take rosewater in a cotton pad an

A Woman's Dilemma

       After I completed my graduation, I got a long vacation before my next course started, so I thought instead of wasting time why not utilize it in doing something. Therefore, I joined a hospital as a social worker. There my job was to call people for follow ups or to help them if they had some money related issue. The interesting part there was of observing people.  In the hospital where I was working, many people were helped with funding for their treatment. So one day a lady came and I knew that she was helped with funds. She was looking very tensed that day, so I thought something must have happened to his husband, who was a patient there.  The person who had organized her funds asked her is anything wrong, why do you look so tensed? And then she started to cry and said that  the money which you gave me, from that money I have given 2000 rupees to my son to pay  his school fees, the teachers were beating him and I couldn't tolerate it. Earlier both my hu

Book review- Undelivered Letters

Image
                                                 Undelivered Letters by J.Alchem You know that feeling you have when you start reading a book and you love it from the very first page. The same feeling I had when I started this book. I was so impressed by the writing, it has an easy language which makes this book suitable for beginners as well. This is also a short read which you can complete in one go. It is a simple story about a postman, Aron who happily lives with his wife and works in Morioson postal services, until he gets a transfer and his wife finds undelivered letters. He then goes to deliver those letters after 20 years. We the current generation don’t understand the importance of letters. We have Whats App for instant replies. Just imagine that time when people used to wait for letters from their loved ones and when they didn’t receive the letters, the feelings they had. It is a simple yet touching story. You experience so many emotions at the same time. You j
