Junk food: Survival without it

“Nourish the mind like you would your body. The mind can not survive on junk food”

This line comes from a person who is so much passionate about it๐Ÿ” and that is me. The greatest lesson learnt in these days is that we can survive without something so called ‘tasty and crispy foods’ which is also known as JUNK FOOD. After all this gets over we can still keep a distance from these foods. I am sorry if you expect the same from me as I am a big foodie.

But I read somewhere that ” Watching television is the mental and emotional equivalent of eating junk food”. And now the amount of time we are watching television means that we are eating tonnes of junk food without even knowing that. I am sorry for using ‘we’ as I don’t know about you all but that is the case with me. And I fail in this task too as I can not resist myself from watching TV (or eating junk food). I have excuse for that which is “there is nothing else to do”(The official statement by everyone nowadays).

Our many interests

Watching cricket matches, playing with friends in the playground were some of my interests before my board exams. Yes you read that right, they ‘were’ my interests. But now they have changed. This is because of my long time distance from these things due to my board exams.

After my board exams I could not make my mood to do these things. Then, I wondered that how these things could be my interests previously and why I starved for doing these things during my exams. As a result, I realized that no interest is permanent and we can be fascinated to anything at any point of time. I am sure this happens with everyone.

But as mentioned above, having interest is a good thing and the number of interests a person owes is directly proportional to the happiness he will have in his life. So go explore your interests in these days of struggle which will help you in the future brighter days of your life. ๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ‘

The MUMMY

Previously I told you about the thing I am missing the most in this quarantine. Now I would like to tell what my mother is missing the most and that is MAID. But now like the way my mother is doing the homely things, I would like to suggest my mother that now there is no need for a maid. She does those things very quickly( like a superhuman)and gets back to her work as a teacher. Nowadays I am very busy sleeping so I miss seeing how she does these tasks.

Today (the day which is going to end in few minutes) was the 22nd anniversary(you will not believe if you see them) of my parents. My father told me to write something about my mother and her homely works in the absence of maid. So this post is dedicated to my mother on behalf of my father and that is how they have celebrated their anniversary in this lock-down.

The tale of Board exams

In December 2019 a volcano erupted in the minds of some students including me. This volcano was because of an announcement which was awaited by everyone. This announcement was about the datesheet of board exams. I don’t know about others but the date which fascinated me the most on that datesheet was the date on which board exams will end which was 18th march.

Whenever I wanted to do something other than study, my mind shouted,” Do it after 18th March “. That is the reason that this date has been carved in my mind. During exams I heard many quotes saying that exams are a part of our life and one piece of paper cannot decide your life. But when we see it practically, it doesn’t work and while sitting in the exam hall, only that piece of paper matters for everyone. In that situation only one request matters which is “EXAM PLEASE BE NICE TO ME”.

Haircuts during quarantine

When this lock-down was announced, I made a list of things I would miss the most. The first thing on that list was salon. Yes you read that right ‘salon’. This is because of my fast-growing hair. Honestly, I don’t feel that I have fast growing hair. It is because of my mother who has made me realize that I have such rapid rate of growth ( of my hair). Every 15 days I rush to the salon and now,barber is my best friend๐Ÿ˜‡.

Jokes apart, getting a haircut for me is like a blessing. Getting a haircut makes me feel light and I love that. But now, I am frustrated with my long hair which are going to touch my chin in next two days. Last month I thought(on a lighter note) of growing my hair . I think that God has assumed my thought seriously.

I will wait for the lock-down to get over and hope that till then my hair does not reach near my stomach.

2020:Virus gone viral

“Please God uninstall 2020 and reinstall it, it has a virus”.

At the start of this year, I prayed to God to direct my year in the form of a movie. Now I have realized that God has fulfilled my wish. I even know the name of that movie and it is ‘ Home Alone ‘.Like that little boy we are also eating, sleeping and watching movies but there is one exception, we cannot be as adventurous like that little boy. Now I have realized that while praying I forgot to tell God which movie he should link my life with. And also, he made my wish global as whole world is experiencing the same situation

I knew that a virus makes computers hang due to which they can’t work but I couldn’t imagine that this principle would be applied on the whole world. World is hanged(has come to a standstill) and that is why I am praying to God to reinstall the year 2020. I hope that you all are also praying for the same.

I am imagining the day when this pandemic will get over and I will step out of my house freely . The first thing I will do is that I will join gym which I aspired for many months before this lock-down.

Please do tell me in comments about the first thing you’ll do after this pandemic gets over.

Shortage of time

“I am very busy, I do not have time”

You wouldย  have heard these lines from your friends and relatives when you ask them to take care of their health.But now in these quarantine days,the time we have got is bountiful and the amount of time we utilize for saying ,” Yaar bore Ho rha huin”(Dude, I am getting bored) is also plenty.This transfer of thoughts can be seen in every house and I am also included in that list.When my board exams were going on, I could excuse myself from exercising, but now as my board exams have ended, I have plenty of time for exercising still my exercise bicycle is used for drying up towels.

Not only about exercising, we make plans about all our hobbies and ask for some free time(which never comes) to fulfill them.But now the time God has given us is ultimate and I do’not think that we’ll get such leisure time again.
