Life in DU..



Never come to DU with expectations!

Because it’s magical and beyond your imagination!

Being in a co-ed school and then landing up in convent college like JMC was no less than a shock for me. Yes I was scared, scared to be able to fit in. What if I just want to run away? Leaving the comfort of my home and coming to an all new city where you knew no one, it requires guts, and I’m glad that I did. Living away has a charm of it’s own. For once, all of us lazy kids get to do the adult stuff, stuff that helps us change, grow, develop, that actually gives us the feeling that we’ve grown up.

But all of this has it’s own perks. The freedom, I will never trade that for anything in this world.


Coming to a girls college, people threw all kinds of opinions and stereotypes at me. But I’m proud to say that I didn’t let any of those things get to me, I experienced it myself and yes I’m glad I came here. All my friends in other co-ed colleges still mock me, say things, stereotype a girls only college. But to all those people I want to say, coming here was a damn right decision and I am very proud of it.

People always have their own opinions about girls in an all girls college arrangement. If you go to a girls only college you’ll become that very girly girl, you’ll be all gossipy and stuff. Mean Girls you see!

But it’s nothing like that. The best thing about a girls only college I feel is that you can be yourself, you don’t pretend. You’re not worried about what others are thinking about you when you’re inside the holy boundaries of this college, you’re not worried of being totally insane that you are. Just turn on the music and start dancing with your girl gang, anywhere and anytime, no shame!
And after some time you start liking the way you live in a pg, having an amazing slumber party every single day. Those people become family. You start surviving on pg food and a break from that food really gives a kind of satisfaction that can’t really be explained. Also going back home in vacations is no less than a scene from Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham. Your family is just too excited (like Jaya Bachchan with a thaali you see!) to just welcome you back and pamper you in every way possible!

Studying in a girls only college really boosts up ones confident because obviously, girls are more competitive. You get to learn so much and it prepares you for the world out there.

I’ve learnt so much from these few months that I can’t wait to see what this rollercoaster of a journey has in store for me next.

SHARARAT: THODA JAADU, THODI NAZAAKAT

SHARARAT: THODA JAADU, THODI NAZAAKAT Shring Bring Sarvaling ,BhootBhavishyaVartamaanBadling! One can’t resist being driven away by the sense of nostalgia while being stumbled upon this mantra!  It was unarguably the era of entertainment .While a decade has passed on, Shararat, the fantasy sitcom spanning over 5 installments, definitely gives away every 90s’ kid a chance to brag about those good old days. Shararat revolves around the world of fairies and magic. What added to the delight in the mind of its viewers was the subtle comedy and the perfect comic timing. The Malhotra family involving a mischievous ‘nani’ with her impeccable magic chants, a docile mummy who has settled down with the menial jobs she has to perform as a typical housewife , and a naïve and vulnerable Jiya ,whose life has become miserable since the day she is wielded with magic powers, certainly Shararat was a visual treat. But the story had not been far  more convincing without the starry l...

SON PARI

Son pari Mumkin ko namumkin kar de Namumkin ko mumkin Son pari sab hal karti hain Sabki mushkil sab din. Whenever I used to hear this song I used to rush towards my television, because this was my favourite show - "SON PARI" Son Pari was basically a fantasy- adventure TV series. It is based on the story of a little girl name Fruity, who receives a magical gem that, when rubbed, summons a fairy named Son Pari and her friend Altu. Son Pari and Altu start meeting Fruity regularly and have many adventures. They help her get rid of Ruby, a woman who wants to marry Fruity's father, Rohit, for his money. Son Pari is also entitled to save Fruity from Kali Pari ( the main villain). Everyone wishes to have a fairy godmother like Son Pari at some point in their lives. A Pari ( angle) who can solve their problems with a spin of her wand. And this TV show was so famous and loved by everyone  because it used to take us to that fantasy world of angels and magic. This s...

INDIAN MAKEUP TRENDS OVER THE YEARS

From Saira Banu in Padosan, Sridevi in Chandini, Karishma Kapoor in Dil Toh Pagal Hai to our all time favourite Poo in Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gum and Mili in Khoobsurat, the fashion and makeup trends have been all fancy and crazy yet so aesthetic and elegant and these leading ladies are surely 'Goals'.  One of the most significant shifts that  have been observed over the years in the beauty industry is the ultimate evolution of make-up trends varying from vibrant and vivid looks to nude face concepts. Makeup can not be talked about separately when it comes to beauty and fashion,it is an expressive(and perceived to be expensive by men) art, which has evolved immensely over the past century and has vividly been an integral part of our culture. But what have been the major stages of this evolution? Let us take a dive in the past and follow up to the time of the millennials.  THE ERA OF SIMPLICITY(1910) -There was hardly any makeup and plain sarees with little or no de...
