We all have some ideal people in our life. In school, most of us have our school teachers as our idols, later some friend, someone in the family, someone in the neighborhood, some social worker, some movie star or some sports person. As we get older these perfect people sometimes fade away. While getting older, we start understanding how this world works, and if you come to know the reality and mentality of the people behind everything, then this place will never be the same for you as it was before. I was the fourth grandchild in my maternal family. The last one was born 6 years before I was. So that's why I was the most pampered one. My mom once told me that my Mama-Ji (her brother, my maternal uncle) bought me more than 20 dresses before I turned two. My uncle (younger brother of my father) bought me a pair of jeans. We used to live in a village at that time and I was the first kid to own a pair of jeans :P.  Time flies. I became older. I passed senior seconda...

One plus 'One' ⇋ One, because the other 'one' never existed. Attachment with anyone is very difficult for me. Some of my friends and even I wonder how is that possible for anyone. Isn't it weird if you hear that person X does not have emotions. Of course it is. Even for me. But I wasn't emotionless before. Some incidents have transformed me into what I am today. It isn't bad. It helps me a lot. It made me stronger mentally and emotionally too. I made me confident in front of everyone. I don't get distracted from small things or emotions of people. Some of my friends say that my behavior is unpredictable because my decision are never based of attachments.  I'm elder son of my parents. So never got company of elder brother or sister. Except my cousins, who used come to our town during their exams only. When my cousin had exams I had someone to share. But after her exams when she returned I used to miss her. I wanted an elder sister at that ...

Otherwise, I would never have known that life is this much beautiful!   Teenage, An age where everyone faces some problem due to sudden change in life. Everyone . I was no different. These changes make us aggressive and we try to hurt ourselves and start blaming or criticizing everything. We become more serious in life and that seriousness got me a story. So let me tell you what happened with me .. I was never that kind of kid who likes to bully someone or to blame others. I used to keep all the things to me and I still do the same. I don't like to share anything with anyone. Of course people are always there to help me if i ask them to help, but I ignored them as always. My parents were always there for me, but my father made me into a person who can not get attached easily to anyone . So I didn't want to bother them.  I believed in living in our own life and deal everything yourself, why take our problems to other people! . Somewhat good an...

Sometimes priorities makes you to leave people. Sessionals were over and vacations started. Parikshit stayed in the hostel for some days to study something and to give a test of a company. He was not qualified for second round that was PI, So those three days were fully wasted. He had reservation on the day after the test and his train was in night so he had a complete day to enjoy or visit somewhere in the Pink City, state capital of Rajasthan. He asked friends in group to go for the movie. Most of them are from CS and IT so they were placed and were at home. He decided to go there with Bhoomi. They are good friends for last five years and things were not too good since he started preparing for some competitive exam. He doesn't get enough time for her and she doesn't like that and this is the sole reason for some disputes between them. Parikshit was free for a whole day so he called Bhoomi and asked her to go for a movie. Only choice they had was “Pink”, because it was...

 It was class 10. I was a good student, the kind of kid favourite to the teachers and the relatives, regular in school and coaching, good grades everything was perfect.But an incident changed a lot. It was the time after the Diwali vacation and our school project was due There were five people in each group. I had Prithvee Raj Chouhan (not the king), Achin, Neha and Palak. It was mandatory for the students to come to school and do their projects there. Girls were allowed to leave after  6 in the evening while boys could leave till 7:30 . The task had to be completed in a week of Diwali vacations and we were doing well. Prithevee was good at it and he did really good work for the project. It was the day after the Diwali. We were in the the hall and doing our project. It was nearly 6 so Neha and Palak were about to leave. Suddenly Prashant sir came and he asked Prithvee and me to come with him. Actually there were two new boys who were good player of ba...

After being sick for two weeks I was fine and I had to leave for college after two days. It was the first time that I was on a medical leave. College started just one week before I became sick, so I had not read much and that's why I decided to read a novel. I called my friend Devendra Pratap to help get me a novel. He took me to Aashram where I could found novels of my choice. I had just started to read the names of the books to select one, when I saw Shiva Trilogy, which was at my eye level. I decided to take that with me. I took the first book of the trilogy, which was "Immortals of Meluha". When I was leaving I said " Dev, I'll complete it in one day". He said "Dude, 450 pages?" "Toh?", I asked. Dev replied "If you'll complete it in a day, next lassi in Pacheria hotel is from my side; and your time starts now." I accepted the challenge with a smile on my face and left.  Aashram is a coaching center conducted by a govt s...

Its been a week since Raksha Bandhan and I went to Shimla that week with my friends . I was badly missing my sister because it was third time in row that i was not with her during this festival. I was thinking about writing something for her but I couldn't. So today, I decided to write something. Of course there is a lot of work to do but ' padhna   hi   to   hai   :p'. The cases of eve teasing are on a rise. Every girl once in her life faces such incidents. One of my female friend who is working in Gurgaon often tells me on eve teasing. In her words, “People stare at me every time. It becomes difficult at times for a working women in these situations. One cannot just leave behind everything and sit at home because of such people.” A friend of mine at Jaipur once told me on how one of her friend was molested by some guys and how another one was slapped by her boyfriend, just because she refused to go out on a movie with him but instead went to party with her...
