Well, we keep hearing sayings like " Don't judge a book by its cover". But then we all have been there in life where we were judged for our outer looks and the way we dress up. And we might be on the other side of the fence judging others for the same. I remember attending a bloggers award...

Hockey is the national game of India. But the most popular sports of India is Cricket. It's not an exaggeration when we say that Cricket is like a religion that binds the nation together. Cricket has outshines other sports. And if any sport is considered as a lucrative career option here, it is...

These days OTT platforms have become the preferred ways of entertainment. Theaters have not died but the scenario of movie watching has definitely changed a lot, especially since the pandemic. Still, movies are released in theaters and many are huge success at box office too. Recently, a...

I am not much into make up and beauty products. If I had to share one tip from my side for a beautiful and radiant sleep, I would say that stay hydrated and have undisturbed sleep for 7 to 8 hours. I don't have a particular skin routine and I have never indulged myself much into the outer care...

Each one has there own parenting style. And parents do their best to bring up their children in the best possible ways that they can afford to, the best in their knowledge and capacity. Our own upbringing and socio cultural influences have a major role to play in our parenting styles. Also...

@Sanjeev. Sometimes we reach that number with all young and old counted together in a gathering. Well, it has become very occasional in recent times. Badminton can be played regularly. Just for fun without any rules or net. We do that very often. And every now and then my husband books the...

Well, Halloween is not a part of Indian culture. Though we have people from various faiths here, Halloween is not known by the majority population. Those living in metro cities with expat population and global exposure have starred knowing it in recent times. Few malls in metro cities also...

Most of us would have played some or the other sports in our young age. Some would have liked it and developed an inclination and love for it. Others who are not much into physical activities as a natural part of their personality would have not. As we grow, many people from both these groups...

Yes, and I think a bit or anxiety and stage fright despite years of experience and exposure is healthy one. And it is good. Because you never get overconfident and take things for granted. You still go fully prepared to put your best out there. Theater is rewarding. It helps not only building...

Yes, the team is really performing well from their last two Olympics. It is heartening to see that the national game is regaining it's past glory that was lost for few decades together. This win qualifies them for World Cup. Now, the whole country would be eyeing that tournament with lots of...

Oh! I did not notice that. Maybe because I am more into responding to threads than creating new one. And a gap of 125 seconds sounds reasonable. Well, that would be what one needs to type for initiating a thread discussion. Well, Shortie says thar it is lowered to 10 secs, that should be perfect.

@Sanjeev. I know of Dayal Singh College though I never visited it. I was in Hindu College, North campus. I spent my five beautiful years there doing my graduation and post graduation. Then I moved to JNU for my post graduate diploma Biotechnology before moving to the US l. Mukherjee Nagar...

. Even I did not know of Halloween till I visited the US and the UK..I stayed in those two countries for almost 13 years. My daughters picked up this celebration with their school friends there. And when we moved to India, here in our apartment we have few expat families and even children with...

Yes, gardening can be lot of work and can take a lot of your time. We would like to do so many things but time becomes a constraint. Can't keep postponing everything to future in the uncertainty of life. You can start with little steps. Just with 2_3 pots with plants that are low maintenance and...

@Sanjeev . Well, for us , mass bunking the class at Delhi University and going to Batra and Alpana in Mukherjee Nagar was a regular affair. We did that for every good release. And I remember even taking our professors too on certain occasions. Our source of entertainment was limited and movie...

I have stage fright too. Well, I don't know if one can call that a stage fright. I was active in debates and got many prizes there. And now in my profession, I keep conducting workshops for teachers, parents and even corporates. But still after years of practice, I still feel nervousness and...

Thank you @Shortie and @Hulk. I am really enjoying the site, just love to see so many familiar faces. It's buzzing with activities too..

Actually lunar eclipse can be seen with naked eyes, unlike the solar eclipse that needs precautions of protective glasses to protect your eyes. Many people have some beliefs of eclipses bringing bad omen and don't watch it. @Shortie. Happy that you could get the spectacular view. It was just...

@Sanjeev . I would agree there. We can't blame media alone, they come from the society. And to run a profitable business out there, they cater to what people watch. A useless Bollywood report gets more view than any sports event other than cricket. That's a shame. People are more interested in...

When in High school, I was a part of a play done by our school for our annual day function. It was the last year of school and my first time exposure to any acting. I was good at sports and debate. I had been a part of those events, but it was the first time that my English teacher selected me...
