I have nothing against technology, in fact I am one among the tech lovers. But I think these days its getting way to much blurring the lines between the real and the virtual world. To analyse what happens when we enter into a virtual world, I started playing the game Yoville and Happy aquarium in Facebook. I wanted to find out why was that so addictive. So, Starting with Yoville first, to explain to people who don't know about it, its like a virtual game that you play through your Facebook account and you get to make so called 'Friends' and what is far more exciting you have different places like beach,restaurant, coffee place, Hair salon's and what not. Don't get way too excited, there are many more things in this . So, Out of curiosity did make an account, but my motive was to find out how it gets addictive in a few days.



First few weeks it was all about making friends, did make some, oh! Just forgot, you even get your own house, I mean you can build houses with lavishing swimming pools, backyard, frontyard, buy and sell things, yard sale, get invited for a house party, have a fashion pagent - like Woah, yes! It's sure addictive, but why? That's when I got the answer Virtual worlds can just gobble up you from the real world. This really makes me think why do people really have to do this? For money? Is it really worth it, is the question that pops up in my mind every time. Once we created this whole new world we call technology, which is now an integral part in every aspect.

Another thing I noticed with my little investigation is that, people were forgetting the fact that they are in a virtual world, talking about real life scenario's, it was like a mirage, which they never noticed. In my knowledge it's high time people move away a little bit from the technology in certain circumstances like these. The worst part you buy coins with your own hard earned money, and it's sad that people do it too with heights of addiction.

That awesome feel you get, when you blog after a long time!

Atlast completed this semester, It was one of the best though stressful. Oh! I have had so much thoughts to update this blog lately, but just now I have had time to actually sit and write for the blog. If you ask me what did you do a whole month?, exams is the word out of my mouth. Rather, In my mind I would say I never was able to manage a lot of things at once. Even though I tried to follow up everything as planned,(yeah! I do have an obsession with planning) but none of things went right, but believe me it was an amazing learning process for me to understand what works and what doesn't. Though I know this post is short will update more this week. 

The letter said,

‘The continued focus on an early start to formal learning is likely to cause profound damage to the self-image and learning dispositions of a generation of children’. 

Okay, first off I like to take responsibilities since I get a chance to show that I am capable of doing that job. I used to do quite well in managing a few different things. But now, I understood that It's not good to have too many responsibilities.. There is a reason why I say this.The moment you take 2 or 3 responsibilities, that's where the problem starts, you don't get to perform even one of them efficiently. Sometimes, its good to say no to certain things. Just have a think before you take up too many responsibilities and finally suffer with it. But man, life is full of mysteries. The second you start a new responsibility we all tend to work towards making that happen. But for once, life can challenge you to do a few things that will tend to make you worked up, but at the same time it gives a great pleasure. So here I conclude my little rambling by saying its good to take responsibilities a few times, until you know you can successfully complete it. Or else, just deal with it, say no to certain things. 

Just started to write random things, when I wished. Now this has become one that is more closely associated with me making memories everytime. The moment I just get a hint of what I want to write, I start typing. This acheives my motive of typing anything I wish. Okay, to start talking about the 1000 views that my blog hit yesterday it is pretty cool! I am very happy that my hobby is progressing to the next level rather than something I mark in my academics. This feel is amazing ♥. It gives me the energy to write more and more on just some simple random things. Now I know, people seem to like reading random bits. Okay, done with my little ramble.

Life just looks normal and peaceful until reality bites. Last few months has thought me a lot of things, which if I had not faced the reality for once, would have never struck up in my mind.

So finally, a windy warm temperature welcomed and woke me up this morning. I have been really missing going to beaches in chennai. Will surely go back and enjoy the sunny 30 degrees! Two months more for that. Apart from that the spring story is really fantastic in Brum. From now on, till the spring ens there is going to be spring series on my blog. Moving off from rambles and musings of me, I will start off to discuss more about the spring trends.


Want to see more of my London trip click here! Today I had my brunch outside, and when I came out of my house, I felt really blessed to have an amazing warm climate outside. Not to mention, before even I walked out of the hotel, it started drizzling. Yet again the gloomy, cloudy, rain and winds.#TypicalBritainClimate But seeing a double digit on the BBC weather page is really exciting though! It's quite funny that BBC one has changed its layout to all yellow awaiting spring. Take a look at that!


To experience this spring, me and my friend sat on our front yard for some time breathing in the fresh air and gazing through blissful sky! The colourful trend that spring has brought us to is also pretty exciting.

Don't forget to watch the rainbow nails tutorial by Cutepolish which is also a creative nail to carry on this spring. Pastels are also up for this spring!


Here there is a call for spring and sun. Soon waiting to have a proper spring experience here in Brum, for which most others in Birmingham are waiting for too!

Do watch this space for spring notes and trends!

Dreams and Ghosts have always been an interesting topic to discuss about! Recently when I was scrolling down my facebook page I saw some interesting facts about dreaming on Creativity matters page. Not forget to mention that it has been one of my favourite pages to look up to. They always come up with some interesting posts like Dreams!

So not going to rave about Creativity matters page.So here I am back into the topic that I chose today. I really like dreams. I have had so many dreams but there is always a dream that stands distinct and sticks to your head. When you or your friends talk about the topic, that dream is the one that pops up in your mind.

One dream that I wake up to very often is this. It just starts like every other dream being in house, leisurely chatting and eating, then all of a sudden I am all alone in a dark (maybe it is something of a grayscale picture with a street light on one corner..if I could still remember it right). So, there I am standing in between two parallel walls and can't even see the other end, its more of a infinity lane. I run to find some people around and atlast end up meeting one person, maybe a women (Which is not quite clear though!) I stand and ask for help. So now this place is weird looking, it is also a black and white one with a wall in front of me, so instead of turning back, couldn't further move. So come back talking to the weird person whom I have not met in my life till now!

Having a strange feel all of a sudden, I see some of my family members around there and this dream just ends on a happy note even though it is very strange and tragic all through this process!

It's quite funny that I could even now while writing this have a complete picture of what I see always in that dream. On that note, will return back tomorrow with more exciting ideas like this!

Tiffany Alvord! If you have read my last post then its very obvious that I am in love with Tiffany's music. If you are a Tiffanatic!♥ Hola!! But others she is really good singer and one of the shining stars of Youtube. Eventhough I come from a place where we dont listen to most of the English Songs my favorite genre of music has always been melodies, and in a nutshell anything fun and creative! The things that I like about Tiffany's music is that not intimidated by the outside world she just brings out the  enchanting music. Apart from her original music videos she also does cover for some songs. You should really check her out! She is pretty cool though!
