Teen age to Tween age!!!



People say that a lady should never reveal her true age...I never fully understood this concept!! Yet I know a little significance of this as we go from the Teen age to our Twenties.....

How can you be absolutely sure that you are in your Tween Age??

1. You go from hot pink, crimson, lawn green, purple, yellow to greys, black, browns, blues....Oh..btw, i was talking about colors of clothes!!

2. Message bearing tees would become comfortable and designer patterns tops.


3. You would go from converse shoes and sandals to ballerinas, pumps, stilettos!


4. Mini skirts would transform to LBDs and low cut dresses.

5. Afternoon matinee shows would turn into late night shows.

6. Trying a drink or smoke would become an excuse to work load and life pressure.

7. Making an excuse for parties would turn into the knowledge of a stay over night out!

8. First kiss might be the expectations, and in tween we run from the word 'expect'....(if you know what I mean :P)

9. Ponytails become straighten hair with streaks and extentions.

10. Metal studded high waist denims turn to straight and low rise jeans!

11. Belts will not be used to keep your pants tighten anymore, they are well studded ones, to show off your waist!!

12. Bagpacks will get converted to Hidesign, Baggit and Fancy branded bags.

13. "Oh my God he is soo cute" becomes "He is not my type" or "He is just not right for me at this stage of  life".

14. Having a boyfriend was a necessity and in Tweens it becomes a Luxury.

15. Teen time you hit the puberty and Tween time it turns to liberty in tweens!!

16. Small Wonder and Hanaa Montana series gets converted to HIMYM and SITC.

17. Charles Dickens, Shidney Sheldon now becomes Arundhati Roy, Jeffrey Archer and Mario Puzo!!

18. Orkut changes to Facebook, Google + and Twitter

19. We are finally on LinkedIn...like officially officially.


20.  Coffee shakes, milk shakes and choco milk becomes irish coffees, lattes and cappuccino.


21....and the list can go on and on......

I enjoyed my teen age, I loved that hormonal rush and doing all sort of random things and then regretting it over and over again! But now that I am in my twenties, I love this step little closer to adult hood. I love how and when I can be random but at the same time be sensible enough not to go beyond limits, and even though I do cross my lines, who cares, am a tween and I care a damn!!

Cheers to Tween age!! Thank God am not Thirty!!! :P

Am at that 'GIRL' age!!!



Am I at that age? BTW, I am talking in the terms of the age for marriage.


Every other friend around me is either getting engaged or married....every relative around me is giving me warnings that "its my turn next".


But now that I am sitting down and thinking about it, am I really ready for such a huge change and commitment in my life?? There are so many things in my life that needs to be changed before I even settle down for the thought of "shaadi"!!


Marriage is supposed to happen when I am so called mature... soft spoken to every one... calm... stable in my decisions... etc etc etc.... but I am none of them...not even close to any of those....


And to add on there are things as follows which are completely not allowed or to be completely changed before I should get 'tied up in the knot'!!!


Till now my mother freaks out when she calls me and I am not picking up the phone...


Till now my father takes care of my bills...


Till now I scream at a store when I see even a T shirt at 10% discount..


I still go gaga for actors on screen...


I still love to hoot in the movie theatre...


I love to listen to SOD, LP, etc etc etc....


I still sing for no reason and wonder at home dancing like an Idiot....


I still cannot means cannot absolutely cook....


I still like to wear T shirts with absolute non sense slogans and proudly flaunt them..... 


I still believe salwaar kameez is a 'jhamela' and saree is 'OMG'.....


I am still a FB addict....blogspot addict....and college fashion addict...!!!


I still flirt with cute guys at airport or college....


I still watch 'friends' and go by there guide rules...


I still hang out like stupid first years with my girlfriends....


I still make embarrassing noises on my first bite with KFC and Mc spicy chicken....


If I am doing all these...then by the Indian terms how can I be ready for THE DAY?? Why cannot my mother and father understand that?? 
Although I love my freedom.... I know I cannot escape the fact of the W-day....but I want a little time....little time to know what I want and how I want to do it....


I am a little girl now...and wanna be the same for some more time....
Please mummy and papa.....leave me alone for some time....let me do some more mistakes in life before doings the biggest one :P

Exam Fever Stage IV...VIT Library!!


Hello friends....i agree this post is coming up very soon compared to my previous records...but i need to share this asap!! As i feel i have to write this for a little edge for VITians...for a little edge of me being a VITian too!!

Before starting this post, i wanna apologise that this is been written in pure intention of fun n laugh..not to hurt anyyone else... Currently there is a little tension in the VIT air...reason...the Term End exam...doing breakdance!! Students are been killed here with the disease called Exam Fever stage IV...they have to go through this enormous pressure of exams, assignments, mini (research) projects, numerous internal exams, quizes and several conferencesbased on projects!! How these students manage their time n studies is really appreciable with 75%attendence compulsary!

Now that i have said well enough about the students, lets have an insight of what is going on in real!! Right now i am sitting in the most sacred place of VIT...the Library....and am in the reading area which a huge room for study!! I am just sitting near a corner...And I bet you will observe so manyvvarities of thingse moment you turn your head 360 degrees!

At every alternate table, there is a couple sitting, which is trying hard to study...but this pre exam time is the best time to sit and discuss about their 'relation', future plannings, each other's shortcomings...etc etc... Such talks are often interrupted with occassional flicking through pages...grave readings...and again back to relationship problems!! Then this goes on till one of them find that they have already wasted about 2 to 3 hrs of their time...now its better that they go to their respective areas of loneliness n study alone!!

The table where you will see a single guy sitting, staring at the laptop...aimlessly...he is definitely waiting for her gal to come over and teach her the subject!! He knows very well that this is a call just to spend some time with the girl...still he will make the excuse of studies...and even if the girl knows the same...she would come to teach him...and after some 2 or 3 hrs she would get mad and would leave the place blaming the guy of wasting his time!!

Then you will see the tables of some serious study groups...they will be having almost all the books possible from the library shelf and studying like crazy...and if any one breaks the rule of "silence" around them...they will give them the 'bhasmasur' looks!!

You can always spot a hyper active group in the room...with their occassional loud laughs...loads of standing over people around the table...and making fun of every possible teacher when they csnt understand the subject!!

Next category of people is the one who comes here for bird watching or csn be cslled "sight seeing group"..but not just bird watching...hybrid bird watching...as library would have birds of little upper breed here!! (pardon my language here)..

The last kind of group is the "do not bother n not bothered" group....they will have their heads inside the books, hands writing so fast in the notebooks that u can hear the pages crying of pain!! They do not care even for a bit whats going on in the outside world!

And the percentage of the group varies with the passing hour of the day!! The couples percentage increases towards the evening..as library is the only place open till 12 at night!!

Sitting here and observing each and every activity is like one of the most productful things i have ever done!! I would definitely like to do a survey about whether my assumptions are correct or not..lol I actually managed to sneak peak on many of the conversations thats going on here...ranging from politics to gadgets to Fashion to food...but it will all end up in depressing thoughts about the subjects and the subject teacher!! VIT is showing me new colours each and every day!!

Hope to get this blog updated with another VIT experience sooon!! Till then...CIAO!!!

Research Redefined....

What is "Research"....well the classical definition is not 'searching again'...but does it really hold so....:P

Lets see it through the eyes of young researchers (...like...me..LOL...)....

1. No weekends...every freaking day is a working day.......But, you can take a holiday with the excuse of studying, literature survey, library and even headache.


2. You can start the laptop with the enthusiasm to search at least some 20-50 papers for your literature studies, but would definitely end up into Facebooking, Twittering, Gtalking, Blogging and sometimes playing games online.


3. You will forget what is life outside lab...as you by this time have already started growing lives in your Lab

4. You will get these constant headaches because of excessive exposure to chemicals.

5. You will no longer able to feel your legs as they are swollen from the constant standing.

6. communication will be redefined for you...mood swings and irritation are very common and often to occur.

7. you will not have a personal life..and if you had already then it will take a 2nd 3rd or nth place right now!!

8. Your house...your room...or your hostel will feel like a guest house for you...

9. Movies, TV series will take a back seat

10. You will be sleeping like a dead person...even earthquake cant wake you up....and all you dream is about proteins, DNA, microbes, flasks...etc.etc.etc

11. Fashion will loose its meaning for you, as you cant even remember what were u wearing in the morning today....

12. If you are at VIT, you will be specially treated as they expect you to write "research papers" and publish them.....do they think that papers are available for 100bucks outside the stall??

13. You will be given the designation of a Research Associate and the workload of a Advanced Scientific Lab Assistant!!

14. Lab is your home n chemicals and bacteria are your friend....you now have no life away from that or can think of any!!!

Thanks to my "Research" I have added a new word "Patience" to my vocabulary....as it is all that I am been said to have during my work....as I will never get any results when I want them or need them.....

We are doing real research.....welcome to our Biotechn World!!!

Work load!!!

OK.....the so called research is eating my brains now......

And the worst part of it...you need "PATIENCE"....a term that does not exists in my dictionary....

First of all....the stupid bacteria takes 3 days to grow, so just to plan it to grow, i have to make the arrangements 2 days before, and then after growing it, i come across that the culture is contaminated....UFFFFFF

And here, out of anger, you cannot even break the pretty borosil glassware that is in your hand....even though its very tempting, the price of that would be cut from your salary.....so again...ARRRGRRHHHHH

And to add on to this, Time wont at all favor you, it would start running like never before....

God the frustration level is building up sooo soon....clearly feels like there is no hope left.....

and at the end of the day, even you do not have the option of "running away" because there is no place to run away in reality, this is a small little village outside the campus!!!

And even though I care a damn for the bacteria, I am feeding them all kind of possible nutrients that could make them grow the best, and they produce a lot n lot of babies.....
I do not believe that I would ever take care my child like this way...... what an irony!!!

just one consolation after such an idiotic day is that I might just get a little close to get a post grad degree after 1.5 years......That is the tiny tiny ray of hope right now!!!

Just trying to remember the reason of my being here....and trying to keep the lamp burning!!!!

Calm down soon.....Meditation.....OM.......

"Friends"


I envy people who have not seen the 'Friends' series....they still have the most amazing series to go crazy by...they are still have to fall in love with Joey....and love his eating habits ("I want girls on bread!!!).....have to drool over Rachel's clothes....have to laugh on Chandler's sarcasm jokes....still have to go crazy to understand Monica's clean freak nature...still have to think like a blonde to understand Phoebe...and still have to realize that nerds like Ross can be funny and romantic...

Friends is by far the best TV series I have ever watched.....and still watching even though I have actually remembered all the dialogues.
There is something about it that always makes me happy no matter at what situation I watch it....

I always wonder will I ever have friends like 'Friends'....

I love everything about them, they way they struggle in the real life, the way they are there for each other no matter what, the way they find fun in everything, the way they are not able to handle relationship at all...everything....

my favorites parts from friends are hard to pen down....but still i am trying to do.....

1. The very very first episode when ross says he wants a bride, and rachel walks in a wedding gown...and chandler wants a million dollars.....

2. When Rachel is talking to her father explaining she no more wants to be a shoe, she wants a hat....

3. When Ross and Monica's Nana dies..."twice"......omg, the shock of Ross was amazingly funny!!!!....and the phase, "she may have died......we are looking into the matter..."

4. When Joey asks Carol about breast feeding...LMAO

5. When Rachel convinces Ross's girlfriend to go bald at the beach!

6. When Chandler is punished by Joey and sits in a Box...

7. The one with all the resolutions, and Chandler tries hard not to make fun of others....

8. When Rachel and Ross get married in Vegas after getting drunk!!

9. where Chandler cannot cry, and by the end cries on everything......

10. one of my favorite, where Ross tries to teach Rachel and Phoebe 'unagi'!!!

11. One of the beautiful episodes, both the proposal and marriage of Chandler and Monica

12. How Rachel and Chandler get mad about the Cheesecake!!

13. My super favorite, When Rachel tells Ross that he is the father....OMG the look on him...amazingly funny!!!

14. A beautiful episode where Rachel and Joey go on a date.

15. When everything falls apart as Rachel is late from her due date of delivery.

16. I guess in the 9th and 10th season, every episode is memorable, bacause each one gets serious of their lives and they all become super cool.........and as a girl must say, Rachel's clothes becomes like every girl's dream!!!

Friends is the series that makes you fall you love with your friends again, and I must say that this is a tribute to all my friends who are with me always always!!!

Cheers to 'friends' and friends.... :)
