Hair Cut

There is something very painful whenever go for hair cut. While I have heard the same from one my cousins, too; why does that happen?

Today, I wasn't willing, but, oh, well; one has to go with the flow... I went for a hair cut. It's not that I love long hair, either...

Mantaining Relationships

Being in a romantic relationship is life’s most beautiful experiences. However, the benefits don’t come across as easily as they might have in the previous century. In the fast paced world of today, with options like e-dating and the liberty given by parents, youth is easily taking to being quickly involved. While there are abundant advantages, the downside of being involved before one is responsible enough, and, the plethora of options available for entertainment; boredom and breakups are natural. However, while the parents DO realize the aftermath of everything happening in their kids’ lives, it’s not easy managing the scene. Following are some tips : both for parents and th X generation alike…

1. Set Priorities : For any human being, managing more than three main areas of life is an unfair deal. Know your reality, and set goals. E.g. Where do you see yourself two years from now. Are you more inclined on settling down, or is providing for your family a priority…

Also, if your background doesn’t allow mixing with the opposite sex, stay responsible. Don’t let yourself get carried away with rebellious feeling; invest emotions only when you truly know you want it.

2. Commit : Once in a relationship, commit a bit of yoursef to it. Future is always unknown; however, to give every situation your best is your duty. Let the rest work on its own. Spend time together, respect each other and let the flame of friendship (atleast!) never die out.
3. Enjoy : Be cheerful and have fun while you date. Same holds for marriages. Humans have a basic need to feel happiness… Seeing your better half happy is as good as being happy. Never give him/her a feeling that you dislike him/her. Even if you genuinely need to walk out of a relationship, politeness and acceptance should be the mantra. While these suggetions sound idealistic, following them usually easens the knots’ undoing.
4. Sharing : Be careful when you share. Unfolding your life stories is not desirable. Most people are willing to see you for your present, afterall everyone has had a history. Reveal as much as you deem respect-worthy. Don’t lie (!), but be mindful. Additionally, talk about friends, but, again, be discreet.

5. Stay active : This holds value throughout your life… Not just for being healthily committed. Deveop hobbies, work on yourself and stay open to learning. The purpose of education itself is to open our minds to learning. Stay that way. Being occupied is half the battle won… Granted you are enjoying the process. Afterall no one can deny that an empy mind serves as devil’s workshop. 

Moments...

Sometimes a little moment leaves you astonished; surprised and elated. Just during routine.

I was putting the flowers in my verandah symmetrically, and lo and behold, I came across a little boat decorated with a feather. Water : crystal-clear water shone inside. Obviously my first thought was that our thoughtful and creative maid – Asha – did it. Later investigation brought to light – Asha had only stuck the feather there. Water had been dripping from roof and co-incidentally collected directly in the boat.

sci fi mystery thriller:Donnie Darko

Donnie Darko
Review number 7

As a psychology enthusiast, my first reactions to the movie were angst, awe and agreement. Similar are my final views… Please bear while I elaborate ;)

The movie is both a psychology and a scientific thriller. Donnie is an adolescent facing psychosis (departure from reality), and the movie builds around his issues. I felt anger because the movie brought to my notice, something I rarely realize otherwise – Certain evils and unhealthy mechanisms are so deeply rooted in every society, and, even every family, that uprooting them is next to impossible. Depressing school course (e.g. Stories that depict sadism), teachers’ rigidity, and, futile attempts of parents to reach out to their kids… It’s like fallbacks hitting you on face throughout the watch.

However, if one has the capacity to read between the lines, one can find both hope and solution(s). E.g. Drew Barrymore, the unconventional teacher, too, has unsolved stuff, issues plaguing her almost 24/7; yet, it’s her sense of direction and self-management that keeps her going.

I felt awe at the complexity of every character, and, the nature of hallucinations. It’s interesting the way Donnie’s genius is weaving a world different from reality, yet, falls back on theories of time-travel and human anatomy. In his young age!

I agree wherever the movie writer leaves problems as they are. An adolescent, IS, the loneliest of all. The protagonist weeps when his therapist mentions his loneliness, he is both guilty and comfortable about stopping his medication; feels a connection with the seemingly crazy old lady next door…

A teacher, just on her own; CANNOT bring about huge changes. Barrymore manages to get Donnie some company intuitively during the class… She shares her views with clarity… Yet… gets labelled as a failure.

No psychologist; and, no hypnotherapy can produce magical cures.

I’m still in dark regarding my understanding of what transpired between Donnie and his imagined (?) girlfriends. Still in dark if the producer means us to look deeper and realize that Donnie just knew everything… before time…

Poheym; yet Again

I LOVE 'How I met your mother'

This serial series was loaded into my comp by a friend. I had heard the name, but, never really seen much of it. However, I'm SO hooked to it, that suddenly no other how and/or movie seems to be holding interest.

While I'm OKAY with this sudden addiction, it's also making me wonder, what is it about the serial?! On this, me leaves to google fow some enlightenment. Catch you later...! :)

horrible Workings

Indeed
I have been trying way too hard
Perhaps
An automatic invitation to disappointment
However, One does
And that’s all that you know how to…

It’s one way or the other
Most of the times
And you thrive
Ignorance Sublimed.
