Just another Indian girl

Why I want to speak in Ted-X ? There are times when I feel like nothing is working out. I look out for inspiration. From books, movies and vlogs. So far, only Ted Talks have successfully inspired me to move my ass off the bed and do something about my life. Be happy. Making choices. Looking out for those small moments. Sharing ideas. It all began with the talk : Hyeonseo Lee's - My escape from north Korea ! It taught me how even in her darkest time, she never gave up and just so that she can have a brighter future for herself, she planned her escape from a country engulfed in chaos ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdxPCeWw75k After listening to this talk, I started looking at the suggestions. And I found this ! Maysoon Zayid - I got 99 problems and Palsy is just one ! It is about a Palsy affected stand up comedian, who broke the norms and is very successful in her life !   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buRLc2eWGPQ  And the talk, about how a son chose ...

It is soo difficult.... The guy of your dreams is just infront of you, but you cant do anything about it because you know there is no future with him. So kaaze is a guy at my workplace. He is smart, cute and fun to be with. Most importantly he is a person with whom I can talk about anything for hours. Yeah, I am talkative but its soo easy to talk to him. I have fallen for wrong guys before, but I always knew they could not be more than a crush. However, with kaaze its different. I like him, but I don't want to jeopardize our friendship by asking him to commit to me. I am not in love with him, but he is soo irresistible !!! Had it been a parallel universe, who knows we would have been a couple. But this is reality, and reality says "girl get a grip. Don't lose hope. Your knight in shining armor is probably lost. He will come to you...soon "

Its been almost a year since I started earning. Life is now the same ridiculous cycle -get up, go to job and sleep. However Ericsson is more fun than I thought it would be. First of all, I have night shifts (from 5pm to 2am ). The only good thing about night shifts is that you can earn extra... upto rs 450 per day. :D and thanks to my night shift money, I get to save money for the trips I plan :D And this year its going to be Singapore and Malaysia !!!! That too without adults !! It'll be a friends trip. All youngsters chilling out and having fun. Can't wait !!!!

DISCLAIMER : this isn't a post about how to get rid of pimples :P :P Pimple...the one thing that always pops up whenever I have a date/ a get-together/ a party to attend :| :| :| I'm almost 22 and pimples just wont leave me alone. They say teenage is the age when people suffer with acne. BUT I would BEG TO DIFFER :P Today when i got up, i had a white-head staring right at me from the mirror as if trying to challenge me to POP IT up ! :\ :\ and the worst thing about having acne is hearing all sorts of suggestions about it especially from people who have CRYSTAL CLEAR skin and who never ever suffered with acne :( Day before yesterday I visited my bua's boutique. A lady was visiting her and she seems to know me somehow but I had no idea who she was. So very NOT- SUBTLELY she says to me "Astha pimples hai tumhare" (AS IF I DONT KNOW !!!! !! arghhh... it actually reminded me of the meme...YOU DONT KNOW :P ) Anyways, but my family seems to be more b...
