The launch was followed by discussions on hair care and a fun filled game of ROCK PAPER SCISSOR but with a tweak. Whoever won got to mess the other persons hair. And yes we didnt have to worry about going home with the messy hair as they had arranged for Champi stations to pamper our tresses.

Being #Together



Image Source



Hi Everyone!

Life is very unpredictable. Every single day it throws a new challenge for us. There are days that are bad, some are just OK, while others are really good. I am sure each one of us wakes up in the morning hoping that each day turns out to be a good day. However, these things are not in our control. Life cannot always be bright and shiny. There always will be a bad phase once in a while. And it cannot be escaped. We have two options to deal with it-

(1) We can loose all hopes, give up and never rise above it.
(2) Or face it, fight it and come out of it as a winner.

If you ask me, the first option is not what anyone should choose. Never. I know easier said than done. However, a little extra effort, a little more faith and support of our loved ones, can make it possible. Being together, with family, friends and loved ones can help you sail through the roughest storms. And I say this from my own experience.

Around a couple of years ago, life took a wrong turn. It was a pretty bad time. Things did not turn out the way they were expected to. Things were not good on both, the personal and professional fronts. It was for the very first time that something like this happened to me. I was not expecting it, not ready for it. Had no idea what to do. This eventually led to depression and self loathing. I started blaming myself for everything that went wrong. I had stopped talking to everyone at home, stopped meeting friends. Almost no interaction with anyone. Ignored people, avoided interactions. I did not want anyone to see me failing. And this made the situation even worse.

I tried everything I could to hide this from everyone. However, one day my parents got to know about the mess I was in from somewhere. They were not at all happy. Didn't talk to me for a few days. Not because of the mistakes I made, but because I didn't tell them and was stuck. But time heals everything.  They started talking to me again. Made me realize what went wrong. Helped me get back on track.

Being together restored the confidence I had lost and with time and effort, life was back to happy mode again. From this experience I realized, sticking with people you love in both good and bad times keeps you going. It keeps you happy.
Since then, I have decided to seek and offer help when possible. It makes things easy.
Housing is one such Brand that in the inimitable power of optimism. Check out their website here.

Its time I #ChooseToStart

Hi Everyone,

Mobile phone is what most of the people start and end their day with. People spend more time with their cell phones than family and friends.

There is one such guy in my house too- my Brother. As soon as he is back from office, he checks his cell phone, replies to emails and Whatssap messages, plays clash of clans, etc. The other day he was watching some video on YouTube with earphones on. After yelling at him for 5-6 times and no response, my dad sent him a message on Whatssap to come out for dinner.

On the other hand, there is this other person living in the same house, who owns a NOKIA E71. And its me. Still can't remember which phone is Nokia E71? Well, I don't blame you. Atleast 10 new phones are launched every month. One cannot remember models launched a year ago. How can you remember something launched more than 6-7 years ago.

I use phone only for 5 things most of the time -

  1. Making Calls.
  2. Checking/Replying Mails
  3. SMS (rarely these days).
  4. Whatssap.
  5. Clicking Photos.
And my phone supports all of these. Yes even Whatsapp. But every time someone sees my phone they ask me  why don't I  buy a smartphone. 
Smartphone

Its not that I don't want a new phone. However, there are several reasons I don't want to replace it.

This is my first phone.It has been with me for 6 long years. I bought it with my own money. Pocket money + Summer Job. Parting from it won't be easy.

Also, I am not someone who does everything with phone in one hand. I use it only when I need it. So no I don't want to spend 50 grands on a phone.

I am not a big fan of tablet size phones. I like my phone to be sleek, that easily fits into my pant pocket.

Why am I telling you this? Well, because its finally the time I put my phone to rest. Its almost dead. High time I buy a new one. I have been doing my research and have finally found THE ONE.

I am planning to buy the new Moto E.  Its a great phone if you are looking for some great specs without creating a hole in your pocket.
