Its the 15th and the last post of the blog marathon.The routine has been fun and challenging.Since i would write my blog post after getting back from work ,the whole day used to go thinking about my next post sometimes scribbling something on the paper in the office. Here is photo of me,getting ready for the new blogpost.This is how i scribble my thoughts when i am at office. Thanks to all my readers,twitter followers and facebooks friends who kept me motivated during these 15 days.I will keep blogging more frequently than before.

POST 14: DEALING WITH A HEART-BREAK

Heart-break is the most common thing these days.I don't know how the statistics go but i feel there is a break-up every nano-second. Its one of the most difficult thing to deal with.Sometimes people shatter in a manner that they end up ruining their life .I hate this concept of heart-break.I always want every love story to have a happy ending.But the fact is some turn really ugly. The most common mistake i have seen people coping with a heart-break make is drown themselves in work.You are already dealing with stress and if you are drowning yourself in work its adding up more stress. Though people may see when you work you get out of that heart-break thoughts,i still believe its getting more and more into stress. Instead,people should go on a vacation,do something you love,dance,sing,exercise and just enjoy being single for a moment.You need to get the stress quotient low. Somethings to keep in mind: Love the moment of being single. Hang out with friends.No

POST 13:HOUSEWIFE-A full-time job

There are some people who think a housewife has no work to do than watch daily soaps,go for kitty party and gossip-around.But i feel its time for you all to get a reality check.I have some wonderful home-makers around me who make me respect everything about them. I have been brought-up in a family of working women.So in my childhood days i didnt think the housewives have much to do.At some point of time we all think that way.We think the working women go out and conquer the world and still manage responsibilty.Yes,it is that way.But housewives also have their own shares of duties and responsibilities. Dear Housewives/Home-makers, First of all a big hug to all of you.You make others life-easy. No matter what the world says,you know being a housewife is a full-time job.Your job profile seems simple to the people who are outside.People may say,'What you do is so simple that i can do in a blink of an eye.You just have to watch daily-soaps and discuss about that'.Next time

POST 12:Some books that you shouldn't miss reading!!

Image
I just don't have liking for a particular genre.I generally try reading everything.Sometimes i grab a book and i have sleepless nights and sometimes i just give-up on reading just 3-4 pages. But every reader has certain books which are very close to the heart.There are books which you will always want to read again.You just can't have enough of it.Here are some books which falls into that category. THE SECRET by Rhonda Byrne THE POWER by Rhonda Byrne THE MAGIC by Rhonda Byrne THE HERO by Rhonda Byrne THE POWER OF YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND by Dr.Joseph Murphy HARRY POTTER SERIES by J.K. Rowling TELL ME YOUR DREAMS by Sidney Sheldon THE FAULT IN OUR STARS by John Green THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES by Cecelia Ahern 2 STATES by Chetan Bhagat IF ITS NOT FOREVER... ITS NOT LOVE by Durjoy Datta and Nikita Singh TILL THE LAST BREATH by Durjoy Datta THE SECRET WISHLIST by Preeti Shenoy

POST 11:I don't live there anymore.

Some months ago i remember reading a diary which i wrote during my engineering days.I used to write about the important events of the day. When i read that,i felt it was not me who has written it.Sometimes i smiled because i found myself too sweet,sometimes i got angry cause of my stupidity,sometimes i laughed till my stomach hurts reading those routine of mine. Realization of that day:Yes,I have changed. Next thing i did was call up a best friend and ask 'Did such things happen with you.I am feeling like i am reading a stranger's diary'.After a real long discussion i did feel everyone goes through this.(I really thought i was a split personality for a moment.And its defintely not a good feeling). As far as i have discussed it with people and got the conclusion,we all have changed with circumstances and for our own good.We couldn't deal with the situations we are dealing with the same old personality we had.If you ask me,i  would have either gone under d

POST 10:How to stay happy!!

Image
If you ask anyone what is happiness.There will be certain answers which will be very common: I will be happy when i buy my car. I will be happy when i own my dream home. I will be happy when i marry my boyfriend/girlfriend. I will be happy if i have so much money  etc........ The reason behind them not being happy is simple.They are always waiting to be happy.And the Law of attraction says ,'Your wish is always my command'.That is the reason why your happiness will always seem a distant future. Time to turn it around. STAY HAPPY NOW. The best way and the only way to be happy is BE HAPPY now.Rest all things will fall into place. 1)Be grateful for what you have now.That's when you will attract more of it. 2)Getting bored or stressed out?Take a vacation.Life is too short to crib about things. 3)Worry less.The thing you are worrying about the most will not matter to you after 2 years.Probably you will not even remeber  what the all

POST 9:A RAINY EVENING!!

Image
I was happy.I had an early day at office or i should probably say,an early evening.Since the server went down i came out of the office early.But i didnt know there was one more surprise waiting for me.RAIN!! The moment i stepped out it started pouring. On a normal day i would have hated it.But today i was out of the office early and i was happy.People who work can totally relate to this.Getting out of the office is the best thing to happen and if its early then the bestest thing. I normally hate rains.I hate all the mess that it creates.Traffic jams,dirty roads and much more.And there are instances too when i love rains-when i just have to stay at home gazing at the rain from window and have a cup of hot coffee, long drive with someone special,drive with friends.I love them a bit conditionally.I just don't want to get out in the rain.That's it. Well today was one such day that i was too happy to bother about getting drenched.So when i am happy even rains couldn't d

POST 8:MISSED CALLS

18th August, 5.30pm, Ria calls up Rishi for the tenth time.But the call goes unanswered.She is angry and annoyed.Its their first anniversary of being in a relationship. Rishi was her Mr. Perfect until he joined his dad's business.Now she felt that all that mattered to Rishi was his clients.Ria had opened her own boutique but she gives as much attention to Rishi as she did in her college days.And she expected the same from Rishi. 'Hina,I have called this guy for the tenth time now and he is least bothered to answer my calls.I am not calling him again',says Ria putting her phone away on the table. Hina is Ria's best friend and has come to help Ria in the surprise they were planning for Rishi. 'Are you sure Ria?You said the same thing when he didn't receive your call for the second time too',says Hina mockingly while playing a game of candy crush saga on her phone. 'Whatever.I know this guy will ruin up the surprise i planned for hi

POST 7:Do we require more IITs and IIMs?

Recently in our annual budget we heard our finance minister saying that more IITs and IIMs will be opened. The question is that whether there is a requirement of more number of IITs and IIMs. If you ask a HR  like me, the answer is definetely No.Keeping aside my profession if you ask then its still a No. A student aiming to be a IIT or a IIM graduate is the only person to be happy about it.The probability of him getting to the top notch colleges of the country gets better if there are more of them.But more number of IITs and IIMs means they will surely lose their value in the long run. If you look at the scenario 30 years ago,Engineering was considered a degree of great value.But now that has  completely lost its value.The reason why is simple.The increase in the number of engineering college. Out of the engineering students passing out every year only 15-20 % employable.Its the most pathetic state we can ever reach.The rest are just there with a degree.The same scenario  wi
