People are more into facebook than into each other...

         


                      Way back in 2004,when Facebook peeked out into this world ,who would had wondered that it would revolutionize our lives.The seeds of facebook were sowed for the sole purpose:connecting friends.Today it has held its head high in the long run of accomplishing this seemingly unfeasible task...


                              This petty social networking site has stormed into our life and taken hold of almost every aspects of our world. Gone are the days,when we would long to meet our friends,near and dear ones and have a chit chat, bragging about self and bitching about others:P Gone are the days,when love birds would be yearning to meet their soulmates,holding hand in hand and each eye contact would say a thousand words... Gone are the days,friends used to bunk classes and hangout together... Gone are the days,when we were breaking any good news,achievements to our family and get their true blessings...Life seems to be confined within this world called facebook rather say FAKEBOOK!!





                                               Today the smileys,emoticons have concealed the true emotions,sentiments.If we were to have a chit chat,we forget our hangouts.Rather we ping that friend and feel satisfied with the little effort we made in searching and chatting with him.  Facebook is earning all the share of core interactions we have.Even if we cannot attend family get togethers ,we do not regret as we have an easy excuse in video chat which connects us visually but not emotionally.Its shocking to see how people try desperate means just to get noticed in facebook.We feel dejected with others share of achievements.

                                 As facebook has endowed us with hot and happening features,we get swayed away by it.Its hard to get away with the addiction and I see a bleaking future of our teenagers.There is a war going on between online and offline relationships..Who will win??? Who can impart love,benevolence ,stand along with us even when we are fighting against all odds??
                  Ofcourse we all are well versed with the answer.Still we prefer to be engrossed in our surreal world of facebook until our own dreams are shattered by the gusty winds of life...My heartfelt condolences to all the relationships which could not thrive due to facebook..

Being Eighteen!!!




     



                         







                         


Eighteen-Turning eighteen is one of the dream come true for most of the teenagers where there is life without restrictions,no rules,just thrill and utmost enjoyment..It is the hanging point between childhood and adulthood where we are still childish with a tinge of maturity.Life seems to be the enthralling and edgy game ever played..Being a normal eighteen year old girl,I too feel the jitters...!!

                             I do not want to lose out this mischievous gleam in my eyes.I do not want to lose hold of the veracity of my thoughts.Although I do not 
want to break the rules,cross the limits, still I want to explore the heights..Sometimes I can be at epitome of my puerility and the other moment you can see me become insane to cater to the needs of my dancing hormones..:P



                          I might be an amateur trying to disentangle the threads of life,still have the urge to dive into the new waves of my life with full confidence and aplomb.For someone who has been the apple of eye for their parents for years,this rapid transformation might be difficult to embrace...Still then I choose to venture in this world full of unknown,masked faces to weave my own world.Few of the many things I would love to encounter with and experience after being eighteen might be venturing into a new city explore it by myself.Putting my legs to rest,I want to fly onto the endless sky(in a plane of course :P),Present gifts to my near and dear ones with my first salary..All the crazy stuff..

                          Finally never getting old...:P


                     Thank you for patience bearing this crazy blog..!!!

A walk through my hometown-CUTTACK !!

                       Let me introduce you all to my small yet edgy city-CUTTACK .You would be thinking I am bragging about my hometown,but you will soon find me true to my words..It might be located in some distant corner of India still then it has made its mark way long back.Yes,The great Subhash Chandra Bose was born in this tiny city of mine..
                     It was once the capital of Odisha. Now not going hay wards,let me unveil you some of the bewitching views of my city..!!!


BARABATI FORT

  • The Barabati fort which stands tall in the long run was once used to protect our kingdom from intruders.True to its meaning,it stood for the people and protected them from the cruel hands of Mughals. If you ever visit it,do not be surprised if you tumble upon love birds in such a romantic ambience. Surrounding it,you can spot various cafes catering to all the teenagers of Cuttack. Besides to it,Barabati stadium is located which hosts all the international matches of Odisha .No other city had that privilege till now and I am proud of it.



BIG BAZAAR



The swanky mall stands still in one of the busiest roads of this subtle city.You can witness here all specimens of Cuttack(from stylish Models to self proclaimed Ambanis of Cuttack:P)


 Think of any birthday bash or get together, you cannot afford to miss out THE RAIN CLUB in here.During the festive season,it keeps entertaining all and sundry of its decorations and eye catching offers..No one will feel dejected.


THE SEASHORE


                           The poignant view of River Cruise,nerve chilling winds can make you leave all the stress behind and indulge in the enjoyment.One of the favorite hangout spot for youths,it provide perfect ambience for the KHATI(gossip) groups.No place to sit idle and enjoy the serenity,come to this spot,you will never regret..

It boasts of  the enthralling THE BOAT FESTIVAL-BALIYATRA conducted besides to it.



GRAND ENTRANCE TO BALIYATRA

The mere view of the grand celebration can sweep you of you feet,be prepared for it..:P If you think its just a festival,you are wrong.Two large grounds are specifically meant for grand fair which can leave you in midst of a new world full of everything you desire to posses of.

Riding in one of the The Giant wheel,you can literally feel your heart out of our mouth.The screams can be great remembrance of our childhood where there was no worries to worry about..!!




DAHI BADAS

                                   Oh!! my gosh...How can I leave behind this mouthwatering 
(almost staple) food of Cuttack,if I am to describe my city..It can be considered one of the wonders of Cuttack. It can evoke your salivary glands at a mere thought of it.Beware!!! :P



It has helped localities to eke a living out of it.In no other city you can find this humble,suave, hand made dish awaiting your presence..



So is my city Cuttack.I hope I could waste your precious time ..:P
