Pressure To Be Slender.

Heeeeeeey,

With each passing blog, the idea of having an online diary really moves me. It’s been ages since I’ve actually blogged, yet again Blame CBSE. Before I start I would just say, the blog I am going to write about today is not to hurt anyone’s sentiments, the main reason is because I’d really want to express myself on a global platform (I guess?)

Ever been through the pressure to be the prettiest because of constant insults? Ever been through the pressure to have the perfect body because of the people you hang out with? It’s obvious when you’re surrounded by girls who are painfully thin or slender that you too feel the immense pressure to meet the same standard.

Okay let see, Aim: Have the same exact figure that she has. Look around you, every girl tends to have the same mantra, the same exact motto. BE THIN. FEEL THIN.

Let me tell you how it goes, Get up. Skip Breakfast. Live on liquid. Go to school. Skip Lunch. STILL living on liquid. Get back home. Skip dinner. Liquid. Sleep. (IS SHE EVEN A HUMAN BEING?!)  Even though I would be a exaggerating when I say the person above skips all three meals, but I am practically dead serious when I say she would love to do so (Unless she has parents who are possibly not going to allow that). None the less, that, what I stated above, is exactly what every “FIGURE OBSESSED” girl wishes to do or does and trust me, she is absolutely stupid enough to think that it is a stepping stone to her much awaited figure (Someone please knock some sense into such people?)

It is proven that lack of food results in H.O.R.R.I.B.L.E mood swings,  eating disorders, break downs and not to forget the daily visits to the doctor (I wonder, if she knows that recession has hit the country). You must have heard people say that people with a healthy figure are much more jolly than the figure obsessed ones, if you haven’t  I am stating the obvious to you now. I don’t get it, so what if size 8 or size 10 doesn’t fit you, it is absolutely normal to me, to be wearing size 12 and really stop assuming that IF I AM FAT MY DREAM MAN IS NOT GOING TO LOOK AT ME. I am sick of the dream man bullsh*t.

Get this in your stupid head, people will talk to you if you have a good personality not because of your figure, that’s old fashioned now and to the people who make fun of these “fat girls” it is because of you that she’s starving herself. It is because of you that she’s falling sick quite often and it is because of you that she tends to hide herself because she feels insecure.

In today’s teenage world, I seem to have completely confused myself as to WHY ONE NEEDS A COMPLETE HOT CELEBRITY FIGURE? WHY IN THE NAME OF GOD CAN’T ONE BE HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU HAVE? IF YOU REALLY WANT A “FIGURE” START TAKING MEASURES FOR IT AND BY MEASURES I DON’T MEAN STARVE YOURSELF (BE FORTUNATE YOU GET FOOD TO EAT). WHEN I SAY TAKE MEASURES I MEAN EXERCISE, PLAY A SPORT, DANCE, WALK, DO WHATEVER.

I hope this blog of mine has knocked some sense into. Thanks for reading. Do comment.

This Matters.

We all live in such a world where materialistic items are given more importance, where getting out of the house and bathing yourself with the heat for five minutes is unbearable, ever thought about the workers at construction sites? We live in a generation where boyfriends/girlfriends come before the people who brought us up, made us who we are, showed us how to face this cruel world and its obstacles. We live in a world where mobile phones are given much more importance than needed.

We live in the present, where what is desired is not given to us and what we do not desire is shoved in our lives, choking us. There are people who crib about how life is and the other who don’t (in other words the sensible ones). The people having the most money are given first preference in everything and the others live life the hard way, thus the cribbing about how life is this way and that way. People should really learn how to live life the hard way, the way the poor live. These people do not even get proper water to drink, eating is far beyond. They are betrayed by life still they do not crib like how we do and gladly accept what comes their way. And what are the things we crib about you ask? We crib about things like no proper sleep, no electricity in the house for 2 hours (in case of a power cut). Imagine the people who live without light and fan in their houses.

The backbiters; all of us have had them in our lives moreover still do. The ones who are sugar coated sweet in front and behind, the true colours come out. I do not get it why not just tell the person on the face, what’s with the whole sweet act in front? If you really have a problem against her, I do not think being all sweet to her is helping.

We live in such a world where wearing the shortest clothes is trending, what about the people who do not even have the shortest of clothes to cover their body. All of us are so brand conscious nowadays. “Omgomgomg, is that fossil?” “No, Tissot” And then comes into the picture the careless ones. I bet all of us have this one friend who loses things which is really expensive. Not all of them have a carefree attitude towards it. But then there are some who have a really casual attitude towards losing such brand marked items. Why you may ask? Because their used to such an environment where they get everything they want if Nike 1 has been lost, there will be Nike 2, 3 and many more. Spoilt Brats!

The Facebook Drama: Part Three.

Hiiii again,

Honestly speaking there were just two reasons why I decided on nagging about facebook all over again, one I couldn’t get over the drama and the utter bullshit and second as far as I know everyone really enjoyed reading it, so here is part three.

One thing I found absolutely necessary to jot down here was the change in writing style once you enter facebook world. I find it very weird that a simple word like cool turns into ‘kwel’ or ‘kool’ OR the word thanks turns into ‘Thnaxx’ or ‘Fanxx’ and the you’s become yew’s. Really now? Ohh and then there’s the whole page full of hearts and exclamation marks which is very annoying trust me ==> Hiiii <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (WHAT THE HELL?)

Facebook is structured in such a way that you’re not restricted to put up photos and albums. So, obviously people would put up photos. But dear you, If you’re going to put up an album called “summer 20136381623” and all that it contains is photos of you posing in front of the mirror and a million other photos of you in different outfits all restricted to the same background. I’d rather not see the album than actually think of giving it a glance also AND then there is this one thing that gets on my nerves. You take a photo. Okay. You Upload it and tag yourself in it. Again Okay. BUT WHY DO YOU HAVE TO TAG YOUR WHOLE FRIEND LIST? I ABSOLUTELY FAIL TO UNDERSTAND.

Relating to photos, I do not get why you have to harm yourself. I bet most of you have seen at least one photo of a cut hand, thousands of cuts on them, blood dripping and covering your whole hand. As far as I am aware about this, the only reason why this is done is because they fall in love and then that person does not love them back, they think by cutting their hand they’re proving to them that they really can do anything for them. One advice, wait for love to come to you, if you are planning to run behind so called “love” it’s not going to happen. It will, with time. By the way it is only puppy love. Nothing more than that.

And at the end of this blog I really couldn’t stop myself but mention about the kissing photos you take with your boyfriends/girlfriends. One word, DISGUSTING. I don’t even want to comment on how horrible it looks to my eyes, leave my eyes everyone else’s eyes. Enough said.

That’s about it, I hope you enjoyed, Thanks for reading.

Major CHAOS!

Namaste? Never mind, Helllo.

I know I know, the huge gap all over again (not so huge this time though) but I can’t really help it if CBSE decides to burden us with a whole lots of projects, worksheets at once and EVERYTHING COUNTS, Trust me on that one and the regular tests just came in the way. None the less, I am back with one more topic to blog on. I bet all of us have been a part of some competition and stating the obvious every competition has a winner. Isn’t that the whole point about competitions in the first place? Giving your best so that you could be declared the winner. So such competitions are being held at my school too. P.S I AM ONLY TALKING ABOUT THE GIRLS IN THIS PARTICULAR BLOG; I HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT THE GUYS.

Now something I’ve noticed in the past years that I’ve spent in school is that, in each batch of students, THERE IS ALWAYS THIS ONE GROUP THAT ENDS UP CREATING A WHOLE POINTLESS COMMOTION ABOUT THE WINNERS, AND TO TOP IT ALL OF, EVERYONE ELSE JOINS IN. Like seriously? I don’t get it, so what if you’ve lost? First, it is just a competition; no one is interested in seeing you go all world war three about it, in school. Second, if not this year try harder next year. And Third, Yes you gave your best; maybe they gave everything to win that. Yes, you were good too, maybe they were better or maybe the best of the lot.

And then there are those who cry about losing. Please realize failure is a part of life, like I said if not this year, next year. Moreover we’ve been learning from a very young age, we become a stronger person when we lose, because then arises in us the assurance to give our best for the more to come. Like Oprah Winfrey once put it, “Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another steppingstone to greatness.” There you have it. 

There are also some who go around blaming the judges for their loss. The whole concept behind someone being a judge is to NOT be partial and of course, they decide who wins BUT YOU CANNOT POSSIBLY GO AROUND TELLING YOUR FRIENDS THAT “ITS BECAUSE SHE DISLIKES US”. These are just the effects of not winning; it’s called “CANNOT BE A SPORT”.

And the winners, I hate it when they come up to the people who unfortunately could not win and go like “You were so good, omgomgomgomg like so good, like this like that, so awesomememe. How did you not win?” Dear you, you know what you’re doing? Pressing the trigger button, yes he/she is going to explode. First of all their whining about it, and you go tell them such INSPIRATIONAL WORDS. I can bet 2 out 5 people already have shot you. STOP SYMPATHISING. 

I hope you enjoyed, thanks for reading.

The Facebook Drama: Part Two.

Olla again,

Basically I couldn’t get over the nasty side of facebook and I have so much more to say. Let’s start with what is trending. The number of photography pages that have been created on facebook keep increasing every minute. Someone one rightly put it, “The problem is every person with an SLR thinks he can become a photographer”. Three words for you, YOU NEED SKILL. Besides that you need passion too, by creating a page and posting up pictures of the closet, your mobile phone and stuffed teddy bears you are not going anywhere. And then you expect us to like the page too. First learn how to take photos properly, learn what the word ‘PHOTOGRAPHY’ really means and basic terms of photography, then I might think about liking your page.

Then let’s come to what I like to call ‘PUBLICITY STUNTS’, you know the ones the actors do to get famous only difference is these people are not actors. So what do I mean? I am talking about the utter bullshit people write on each other’s wall obviously because they are having an argument. Anyways, I don’t get the point, WHY DO IT ON THE WALL? AGAIN, WHY DO YOU WANT THE WHOLE WORLD TO KNOW WHAT’S THE ARGUEMENT ABOUT? You are having an argument, okay fine. You are telling your close friend, again fine. You are posting your side’s of the story on each other’s wall, not fine. Inbox, Inbox, Inbox.

Recently, I was going through a few profiles and guess what I saw? ‘XYZ’s relationship status is changed from being in a relationship to widow’ and I burst into laughter. Dear people who do that, DO YOU KNOW THE MEANING OF WIDOW? If not, A widow is a woman whose spouse has died, while a widower is a man whose spouse has died. And please, you are not married to your boyfriend whose not going to last, so do not even plan on giving me that. 

Then, we have those who do not know basic manners. So really if you think by creating a hate group against a person is really the right thing to do, please think again. If things between you and the person you hate are not going good, I suggest you talk it out, you never know it might even turn out to be a misunderstanding or at least he/she will realise their mistake and apologise. Why create a hate group and spoil your name? It is you who is going to look like the bad person, not the person you hate. By hurting that person’s feelings, it is really not taking you anywhere. THAT REALLY DISGUSTS ME.

Parents: Our Guardians.

Hello there,

Parents. These 7 letters, one word make so much of a difference in our lives. So recently, I’ve been hearing things that made me emotional. Have you ever wondered how it feels to NOT see your mother or father at least once in a day? Yes, some of us can’t even visualize not seeing their faces. Manier times we would want to stay away from them, but that thought of leaving them sets us back, at least for me. But there are so many kids in this world or let’s say in Dubai who do not even get to see their parent’s face once a day. Why? Because of the occupation they do.

There are many parents who go abroad for office work and do not get to spend time with their children due to the work pressure on them and then there are those children whose parents do not go abroad for office work but work more than 12 hours a day. What really kills me inside is the fact that these kids do not get to see their parent/parents at least once a day.

From the point of view of child, we are emotionally attached to are parents and obviously need them with us. Every one of us would want our parents to sit down and talk to us at the end of the day about how their day was, what all happened etc. But then what about the people who do not even get to see their parents, what do they do? 

From the point of view of a parent, the only reason they work is for the wellbeing of their child. They can’t help it if they have to work extra or end up going to work on a weekend too. I mean, they are doing this so that their kids could study further, become something in life. They try to give us everything we want so that we are pleased. There are parents who give their kids anything they ask for only because they do not want their kids to have a youth like theirs. That is why they work.

For a teenager like me who understands the surroundings at a certain level, who understands the problems of my parents. I would not want my parent to work more than 12 hours just for me. I would want my parent to enjoy their life too. It really hurts to see your mother/father leave home earlier than 5:00am and then arrive home much later than 10:00pm. I know of people who sacrifice sleep or get up before time just to see their parent’s face and the worst part is THEY CANT HELP IT. I even know people who have cried, had loads of disturbing breakdowns just because they do not get to see their parent. Imagine life that way. 

I really hope you liked my blog, do leave your comments. Thanks for reading.

The Facebook Drama

Olla,

Firstly I’d like to apologise for such a huge gap of days, blame it on CBSE. I missed blogging. So here it goes, jotting down my feelings hasn’t been simpler. Today I am going to talk about something that almost every teenager uses, FACEBOOK. It has, according to me become a trend to have a facebook account and it gets nasty. Like all my other friends even I have a facebook account and usually, I notice so much of ongoing drama that I couldn’t really stop myself from blogging about it.

I have come across so many people on facebook who take photos with the shortest of the possible clothes, obviously with the intention of showing off their body parts. For such people, please stop wearing clothes? I don’t mean to offend anyone but honestly speaking you are going to look the same with some amount of clothes on too. And then there are those people who take photos with THREE LAYERS OF FOUNDATION, A COMBINATION OF EYE SHADOWS, EYE LINER, KAJOL, MASCARA, POWDER, LIPSTICK. AND ITS NOT EVEN GOOD MAKEUP! What harm in showing how you really look? 

Next, the teenager couples who keep on putting up statuses on how lucky they are to have their loved one in their life, or how awesome their day was because they saw their loved one and spent time with them. I don’t mind you putting up such statuses once in a while, but why put up such statuses after every two minutes? I don’t think anyone is interested in reading how much you love/ miss her than her itself. Then there are those couples who wallpost each other on what they did with each other the whole day and how they miss holding each other and kissing each other. Kindly understand Mark Zuckerburg did not invent something known as an inbox just for the fun of it, there was a purpose. So use your inbox? The idea of couples posting such things on each other’s wall disgusts me and I’m sure it disgusts a lot of other people too.

There are also people who publish their health reports and whole life history on facebook. Why on earth would you want all your facebook friends to know what’s going on with you? If all that is for sympathy, do me a favour, go to a news channel or any other form of mass media and publish it to the whole world, why restrict it to your facebook friends? In that way everyone is going to give you sympathy.

Facebook was introduced so that we could socialise more with people not use it to such an extent that you disgust people.
