TheChubGrubsAndTravels

It is said that we are a lucky generation Privileged to be born in this booming era of innovation and technology Of constant change Of travel and not being rooted at one place! Of money and wealth  Of virtual relationships  and of selfies and social media!! We, the Millennials! Fall asleep when we are suppose to be wide awake Forget to appreciate the beauty of sunrises, sunsets and raindrops Eat breakfast when we are suppose to have lunch Work when we are supposed to be relaxing Take pictures when we are suppose to be enjoying food and places Run away from things and people when we are suppose to be walking towards and embracing them And so much more... The fear of missing out looms over our heads all the time. FOMO they call it. From the moment we wake up, till the time the moon shows up For us, the grass is always greener on the other side, We refuse to accept and take things coming in our stride.  We cannot sit at our desks for hours together Ye...

"For people who believe writing is the best form of expression, a digital diary comes as a boon.Maintaining a journal in the form of a book or a diary gets monotonous many a time. Looking at the same cover,the same kind of pages and the same handwriting leaves one craving for something new and different,something that lets people experiment and discover the beauty of maintaining your thoughts on a digital forum." I've been a part of blogosphere (well that's what the blogging world is called) for a while now. I would say it is the new age mantra. It is quite a hit amongst people of all age groups.Be it celebrities,students,chefs,IT Professionals (people like US) or even housewives,everyone has taken to the keyboard.The concept of having a blog comes as a whiff of fresh air for you and me alike. Like I said before maintaining a manual journal can get you bored. Blogs provide us with so many options ranging from font,themes,layouts,color combinations,images,an...

1) Smile.  ☺  Every single day of your life, come what may. 2) Surround yourself with people  웃웃유유  and things that exude happiness and positive energy. Decorate your office cubicle. It’s a good practice. 3) Appreciate the small things in life. Example: The coffee bite toffee that you use to eat when you were little :P 4) Give back to society. One way or another. 5) Teach an under privileged child; subject and language no bar. 6) Coffee is a life saver. Savour its taste and get tranquilized by its aroma. 7) Spend money and time on others. It will make you immensely happy. Trust me. 8) Distinguish between the good and the bad. Keep the good and chuck the bad. 9) Love.  ♥   Your parents. Your family  유   웃 . Your friends  유   웃유   웃 . Your job. Your life.    Yourself. 10) Listen, attentively to every minute detail that someone talks about. You never know when it will come in handy. 11) Meet a lot of peo...

I was born a little girl innocent and carefree With time I grew up not knowing how fast I failed to realize That time fails wait for anyone The hands of the clock ticked on seasons changed rapidly with leaves People came into my world Some stayed on,while others refused to look back Now I'm at the crossroads of life Deciding what I want to do and become It isn't an easy choice  For there is a particular type of woman I want to be I want to be that woman  who has compassion in her eyes and warmth in her heart who is a reader of many minds who can differentiate between emotions who will prioritize her people :the right ones from the wrong and who can swim strong through several tides I want to be that woman   who is God fearing and  worshiping who practices what she preaches who can inspire young girls who will throw tantrums now and then,yet simmer down who will PMS to no end and shamelessly admit it I want to be that woman who will be he...

Somewhere Somehow every girl LOVES pink ♥ The day she is born all her mother can think of is how lovely the baby girl will look in a cute little pink baby frock and how pretty her PINK room will be.Pink is like the default GIRL color. Every girl owns atleast SOMETHING pink either in her wardrobe,among her stationary,her lingerie,her make-up,her bags or even the BUBBLEGUM she chews! I must add my dad is one of those very few men who look amazing in this vibrant pink and oh! how can I forget hot pink lipstick? it looks LIP-SMACKING! I personally think pink is an amazingly vibrant color. The color fills with me some sort of joy i absolutely cannot explain.Its like this rush of happiness in me when I set eyes on the colour. Any shade would make my day especially if its sparkly. Hot pink is one of my favourite colours.Makes my eyes twinkle with joy. But its ironic how I've never like or fancied the nickname PINKY for a girl child. It doesn make sense to me. I've always drea...

Its strange how we can like leaves when they are green and lush and swinging on the trees but we would rather take a picture of it all brown and scattered on the road..The gorgeous leaves have lost their shine but still there is something about this picture that makes me go all OH MY GOD this is indeed a good one.! The leaves are rustled and there is a fine balance between the green and brown dried up leaves..!

Well,my last blog was in 2008 and it might be a little stupid and a little immature.Blogging seems to be a fun hobby since it involves lot of writing which can range from total crappy to super interesting.I'm still thinking where I should start off and it will take me some time to come up with some topic I would actually LOVE talking bout! :) Till then TOODLES :D
