        5 Reasons Why Every Guy needs A                         Girl Best Friend !!!!



For some strange reason, many people believe it is impossible for a guy to be best friends with a girl without some hidden agenda. Well, I am here to break that stereotype and bring to light the reasons why every guy needs a girl best friend.

1. New perspective

Yes, you may have a general understanding that men and women see things differently, but to actually hear about their experiences and how it affects them is life-changing. Like when a woman holds open the door for me and I immediately say sorry because I was supposed to hold it open for her. To her, it was just a natural thing to do, but I felt it was my obligation to a man to hold it open for her. Does it really matter who holds the door open for who? Ask your GBF (Girl Best Friend).

2. Being Emotional

It sounds ridiculous, but if there is one solid thing that I've learned from my GBFs, it's that allowing yourself to acknowledge what you're going through and experiencing those emotions that make you feel exposed is necessary. Maybe it's just me, but I believe that men are encouraged to shut off emotions that make them seem vulnerable for the sake of masculinity. News flash: rarely does that work out for us in the long run. I have also discovered that wine helps get you through it.

4. Food is ALWAYS Involved

I kid you not, that most of the times I get together with my GBF, there is some type of food. Seriously, guys, girls like to eat -- a lot, and so do I, so why not be friends with them? You are missing out on some serious binge eating because when they want to eat, NOTHING gets in their way. Just get behind them and hold on. Fastest food service ever.

5. The Little Things

This part is hard to explain, and more so one of those experiential components of the friendship. When you find that GBF that you can always call, or if you don't talk to for a while and she sends you a nice (nice is a synonym for Molly Weasley style reprimand right?) little reminder to do so, keep her around. It means she is not afraid to knock you down a couple of pegs and that is the sign of a true friend.

10 Reasons why every Girl needs a 
‘Guy Best Friend’


 
Bollywood has always tried to convince us that “Ek ladka aur ladki kabhi dost nahi ho sakte.” Not just Bollywood, as soon as we start growing up there seems to be an iron door between the two genders. Maybe that is the part and parcel of growing up. But in the entire hustle bustle we still end up crossing paths with that one idiot guy and sometimes we end up becoming very special part of each other’s lives, proving all the Bollywood movies wrong. This whole ‘friendship’ with that idiot guy friend is an enchanting experience. If you are a girl and if you have a guy best friend, you will surely be able to relate to this. Here are 10 amazing experiences which prove why every girl needs a guy best friend!

Simple Beings:

As difficult as boys may seem, in reality they are just very simple beings. In general cases, according to my observation, their line of thinking is very straight. A girl’s description of a mango would say: Yellow color, sweet with a dash of sourness in taste, packed with nutritious components and she can go on and on till the sun goes down. But for a guy a mango is a mango or it is a yellow color fruit. That’s it. It is that simple life.

Being a thinker is essential but sometimes taking life as it comes makes it fun.

Gossip Girl:

Remember that TV series by the same name that revolved around the teens of Upper East Side Manhattan, New York. The show featured a blog called Gossip Girl where a secret blogger posted updates on the lives of the upper east siders. Guys are similar to the secret blogger. They hate to admit it but on many occasions they gossip more than the infamous girls. A guy best friend will enable you to cherish that coveted side of yours.

Amazing Shoppers:

Ever been shopping with a guy? If you haven’t then it is a must. Why you ask? They are simply incredible at this job. Red dress, pink top, pair of denims and black dress creates confusion in the mind of a female shopper but for a male shopper it’s easy because whatever you try he will like them all. Since they like all of them a female mind starts making a mental priority list and zeros down to the best or ends up buying all of them. You get what you want either way and on some occasions even more.

Drinking Partner:

Guys who are seasoned drinkers have an appetite of a horse when it comes to drinking. They get drunk AF and the best part is they would never admit it. Oh the never ending denial phase! They are always up for a drink, maybe two, oh who cares unless the bottles are not lying around empty. And this makes them amazing drinking partner.

The Minion:

We all love Minions, don’t we? They are cute, obedient and you can really make them do anything.. Well your guy bestie more or less walks on the same line. He is obviously cute. He knows when to be obedient and they can really do anything for you no matter what.

Notification Bar:

In this modern age most of us have smart phones. You know there is this notification bar right on top that gives you all the updates, your guy best friend is a living example of that bar. The updates would be regarding sports (football or cricket), models you never even knew existed, double-entendre jokes, of course porn and all other weird stuff that never crosses your mind. It is absolutely enlightening.

Leaning Tower of Pisa:

You know how the Leaning Tower of Pisa leans and never falls because of its strong roots and magnificent architecture that is the kind of strong and unbreakable bond you can have with a guy friend. This one is actually a no joke. They never judge you for anything. You can cry in front of them, vent about your boyfriends, curse your life and they wouldn’t even flinch.

All in one package:

A boyfriend is your boyfriend, your father is your father and your brother is your brother. These three male figures in your life may be your friend as well but they cannot interchange their roles with each other. But your guy best friend was probably trained somewhere to play all these roles, sometimes even all at once and he is damn good at it.

Superman:

No he cannot fly, does not have lightning fast speed, no laser eyesight (Bet he would kill have it :P) and thankfully he does not wear his underwear over his pants but he has everything a girl can wish for in a guy. That simply makes him a Superman.

Last but not the least:

A girl will always be incomplete without her guy best friend. Afterall, with whom will you share those stupid tales, those crazy jokes, those frustrating moments and of course, you need someone to back bitch with too, right? When he’s away or busy, you might feel lonely or empty inside and life suddenly gets dull. He is perhaps the one person you need all the time around and definitely you cannot thank him enough. The idiot best friend of yours is the one who actually ‘completes you and makes you who you are!’.



This list is never ending. You always discover something new about him every single day and all the time in the entire world would not be enough to express how amazing he is and how lucky every girl is to have a friend like him.

Movie Review

THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER

   
You should approach with caution towards any movie that tackles the pitfalls and plateaus of adolescence. High-school coming-of-age is distraught with tedious cliché and too often written by people either misremembering their own distant youth, or a ghastly observing their hormone-unhinged offspring. On the surface, Stephen Chbosky’s film, based on his 1999 novel, appears looked-upon. It serves in acid trips, teen suicide, homosexuality, truth-or-dare. Actually, that does sound pretty accurate...


Like the average teen, The Perks Of Being A Wallflower is often clumsy and awkward. Chbosky’s technical direction is scrappy, and every now and then the script drops a bummer (“How long have you been boyfriend and girlfriend?”). Yet there is something about it that just chimes. The period setting helps, making these teens as relatable to thirty somethings as teens themselves.

Crucially, though, Chbosky has cast his story well. Ezra Miller is lumbered with the ‘flamboyant GBFF’ role, but handles it with care. As ‘wallflower’ Charlie, Logan Lerman is surprisingly appealing. With Charlie narrating via letters to an imaginary pen pal we see his world unfurl into confusing, terrifying and amazing complexity, and even when his predicament takes a melodramatic turn, he remains an effective emotional conduit. Then there’s Emma Watson, all growed up and turned Transatlantic as the nerdy teen boys’ ideal girl. The American accent suits her. 

An honest, affection-hooking, coming-of-age drama which proves that there is life beyond Hogwarts for Emma Watson.

Sleep Issues in teens




Teenage years are of utmost importance for your child. Chances are, he/she will undergo a spurt in growth and development. Thus, proper sleep becomes significant to one’s growth. However, your teen may exhibit some discrepancies in his sleeping patterns, which can be a cause for concern.


Sleeping habits that are common amongst adolescences:-

  •   He sleeps less, sometimes less than 5-6 hours.
  •    Once it is bed time, he spends time on the screen, completes school work, studies,      listens to music, calls his friends, etc. He does everything except sleep.
  •   The lack of sleep increases his lethargy, and he gets tired quite easily.
  •  Teenage academic pressure can also affect your teen’s sleeping pattern. The extra stress can end up interfering and reducing his sleep time. Academic pressure is a common reason for sleep deprivation and inadequate hours of sleep in your teen.


Remedies that may have some impact:-


  •   Follow a relaxing bed routine. For instance, have a bath and drink warm milk before going to bed every night.
  • ·  Keep your teen’s room dark at night. Lights that fall on the eyes affect a teen’s brain sleep cycle adversely. Advise your teen to avoid watching television at night, play video games, and surf web in dark hours since these activities release light that prevents them from falling asleep.
  • · Tell her to avoid loud music at night as noise can hamper her sleep adversely. Let her use earplugs or eye shades if need be.
  •    Follow a regular bedtime schedule.

   HAPPY BIRTHDAY APPA !




It’s My Appa’s Birthday today and as he’s staying miles away from me, So this year I planned to write to him. Well, What’s better than blogging. 
So here it is !

Dear Appa,  

On your birthday, and on every day, you should know how appreciated and loved you are. I am your daughter that was shy, was afraid of New city, New life but I tried not to be a trouble.

You worked long hours and weekends too and spending time with you was special. I wanted to be just like you.

I loved writing and reading very early and we bonded over that. I loved having something in common with you (other than picky food choices), and taking trips to the Grocery Store. I wanted to show you I was smart because I saw how people respect you.

I always tried my best in school and in life and tried to be a good daughter so you and Mom would never have to worry about me.

I loved the way you always gave me pep talks about how to deal with bullies. And later on, how to handle tough situations in the workplace. I learned many important people skills from you.

You have been a strong provider of emotional support my whole life. I don’t think either you or Mom expected that I would experience the challenges of living alone in that city, but maybe in the back of our minds, we all knew it was a possibility given the strong family history. And I have to say, I can’t even imagine what all I've learned through that experience.

I want to thank you for not letting me get stuck in my head. I want to thank you for coming to my doctor’s appointments with me so you could learn more about me and to learn how to help me. Thank you for not looking at me as “incapable”. You never worried that I would be any less capable of doing whatever it is I wanted to do. You always had faith in me.

Thank you for your never-ending patience, support, guidance and for always reminding me not only who I am, but why I am more than a girl.

Happy Birthday Appa. You Rock. Miss you ❤

          Guilty Pleasure



My sinful lips already committed forbidden pleasure,
pleasure that can never be revealed
Wishin’ to rewind through time of prevention,
while bein' deleted from my present...

As their bodies became whole,
Electrifyin' lights sparked within' each vessel
Formin' unique passion marks,
as our lips danced along each others skin
Like tango music,
Our sounds romantically spiced the room
With an agreeable minglin' of seduction...

The sweetest fingers roamed,
Caressed,  
quenched my thirstin' physical needs
While spiritual sins are being created with a knowledgeable lover
Showin love and affection...
Feelin' lower than loam,
guilt drastically took its place as the aftermath
This romance jus' recently starting….

Why couldn’t I’ve said?
…Wait! Put those flames on ice!
This isn't what you will want,
Jus' hormones caught in the moment...

Lookin' back,
Wantin' to reverse the hour glass
This event could've been delayed until its rightful time,
With that rightful someone
But my sinful lips already committed forbidden pleasure...

TOP 5 MOVIES ON FINDING ONESELF



1) The Peaceful Warrior:

One Friend of mine said that many of the things I talk about on PE are similar to the film’s messages. So he shared with me his copy of the movie and I watched it. Once watched this movie is going to be on your favourite list forever.

2) The Family Man

The Family man is a comedy drama about a highly successful, single investment banker (Nicholas Cage) who gets to experience how his life would have been if he made a different decision 13 years ago (staying with his girlfriend rather than opting for a high-flying career). It’s a movie that presents a ‘what if I had done this instead?’ scenario and contrasts a life with great wealth and success vs. a quiet family life.

3) Forrest Gump

Forrest Gump is a 1994 American comedy-drama film based on the 1986 novel of the same name by Winston Groom. The story is of Forrest Gump, a simple man who comes from Alabama and his journey through life meeting historical figures, influencing popular culture, and experiencing firsthand historic events of the late 20th century.

4) Groundhog Day

Groundhog Day is about an arrogant TV weather man (Bill Murray) who finds himself stuck in a time loop where he keeps repeating the same day over and over. The worse part? He’s the only one who remembers the past day’s events — no one else seems to remember anything! At first, he uses this time loop for personal gain. After a while though, he starts to evaluate his life and priorities

5) The Butterfly Effect.

) Another “sad” serious film. This is a movie of a man who desperately goes back in time to try to change the future for the better, with unexpected consequences each time. The butterfly effect is the phenomenon whereby one little action (the flutter of a butterfly) magnifies over time into a huge effect in the long-run (think along the lines of a tornado.
