Impressions!

She never thought she would end up chatting with him let alone sob when he was leaving for his masters. Got her thinking about their first meeting. He was working at the music group she had just joined. He kept to himself unlike the others. She had always been a silent observer in new surroundings and among new people. They exchanged words only when they had to work and so things went on in the beginning. Eventually during the course of their work she befriended him, and he was nothing like his first impression.
            He was chatty, funny interesting though his first impression was somehow exactly opposite.  He was also surprised at how different she was as opposed to her impression.. They became very good friends over a period of time 
            It is said that first impression is the last impression. But in today’s world, where the only static thing is change, everything keeps on changing with a blink of an eye. And people are no exception to that rule! Hence the saying ‘First impression is the last impression’ does little justice. First impressions are sometimes mere illusions/perceptions we make in our mind and often are not true.
            It's a very general observation that people who are now very close to us were the ones who did not make a very good first impression. First impressions can be deceptive.
            After long years of friendship it does not matter what you thought of a person in the beginning.
            Makes us wonder how this works, because often people we trust and believe to be our friends in need, leave us on our own in those very times! Sad but true! 
Often people whom we had prejudices about, lend us a helping hand in the times of need. Weird.. Right?

20 things somebody should have told me before I turned 20!


1.      Engineering and medicine are not the only professions in the world.
2.      Read books! Books can take you to a different world; it can also make you aware of the world around you in a way you never thought of.
3.      Facebook/Orkut /social networking sites are eventually gonna bore you.
4.      The only thing standing between you and your goal is the bullshit that you hear and agree to when you know you can totally achieve it.
5.      Don’t use shortcuts like k, f9, buhbye! You will end up irritating your colleagues at work if you continue this.
6.      You don’t really need to have a boyfriend/girlfriend because others have one. Be patient, you’ll someday find a perfect match ;)
7.      Be wise while choosing friends, be sure you are not seeing the tip of the iceberg.
8.      Success is different for different people. Try to find out your own definition. When you do, celebrate it!
9.      Marks are important, but they are not a sole measure of your credibility.
10.  That no matter how fast you run. The race is with yourself!
11.  Experience is as important as education.
12.  College is not the end of your education.
13.  Never put your hand under an unfamiliar desk because you might touch someone else’s old chewing gum.
14.  Brands are just tags with funky names on it.
15.  Burning the midnight oil is not to be taken too literally before the exams.
16.  Be nice to yourself. Maybe you don’t realize but you are way better than you think.
17.  Give up worrying about what others think of you.
18.  Memorable journey is not necessarily the perfect journey you planned.
19.  Listen to all genres of music. They will be with you at the times of sorrow or joy.
20.  Enjoy the present. No matter what this time here will never come back.

There are clouds in the sky but you will get by!

Smile coz that is how you supposed to be,

Smile, you are meant to be, smile for the world smile with thee, smile coz it will cost nothing,

Smile when u are happy. . 


Smile when u are in a mess

Smile with warmth for  those who pass by

Smile coz your smile is all you have.:-)

Smile coz somebody dreams of it,

Smile coz as the moments pass by you will realize it’s worth.

Smile,

it will make things alright!


PS- Here is a song attached which speaks volumes about smile, Have a look.

Dream a little dream!



“Why does everything have to be in a particular way? Why can’t we do the things in our own way?  Why can’t we take some random decisions just because it will take us to our land of dreams? Land that does not match this one.  A land that does not judge your actions. A land that just feels right to be in.
Why do we have to follow a paradigm?”
Same questions haunt us in smallest as well as biggest things in our lives. Starting from why to do an internship in summer holidays to why to get married to some unknown guy! What if all these people who stood against the social paradigms would have backed out?
Agreed that there are some customs that we need to follow, there are some etiquette's and rules to be followed being a social animal, but when things become superstitions, it starts getting worse. Doing anything without knowing the reason and cause behind it makes us wonder!

My granny used to tell me a lot of stories. The story about the fish that died when was taken out of water.  A story of a artist who emerged from a poor family. One of the story was of a of girl in a village who always wanted to get educated and educate others. People around her told her that its not possible and she should not waste her time in doing things that will go in vain. But she didn’t lose hope and did what she wanted not thinking about what world thinks about it. And she not only changed herself but changed others by her power. She did not give up because someone said its not right kinda dream for her.

People have small beautiful dreams. Everybody is unique in their own way and so are their dreams and so is their way towards it! Why can’t we follow our heart, learn, earn and also make these small, big beautiful dreams come true!

Right wrong are very dicey words! They are most of the times relative!
We should decide for ourselves and if we truly believe than never back down just because some jack who is not sure of what he is doing in his life tells you that you are on the wrong path!
If u think things are not going according to your plan be patient, remember this too shall pass meanwhile dream! 
Let your inner light shine!

This world always wants us to follow its 'rut'.
If we don't and we choose to do something different we are questioned by every Jack we know.
Makes me wonder!!!

10 things money can't buy...

In today’s day and age money is matter of grave importance; it’s almost money over everything else.
If you ask anyone what is a basic need to good life anybody and everybody will say money! We ponder whether there is anything which does not have a M.R.P. nowadays.
Money  is the most important aspect in any field today like for example a field of education etc.

Since the old barter system vanished. Exchange of goods with money has increased its value.
Parents want their children to be successful earn a lot of money because that is the need of the hour. Women want their husbands to earn more...potential grooms want their would be wives to earn more viceversa.if you want to educate your child from a good school, university; You need lots of money!
Money indeed has acquired a lot of importance over thousand years!
And yet people with riches are not always happy ones as compared to a person who has to work hard throughout the day to earn his bread.
Got us thinking if there is anything left as an exception to the rule ‘money can buy everything ‘Here is a list of things we think money can’t buy
10things money can't buy.....
1.      Time
2.      Respect/loyalty
3.      Love/care
4.      Health
5.      Knowledge
6.      Courage
7.      Smile/happiness
8.      Satisfaction
9.       Second chance
10.   Luck
