Finally the day had arrived. Trembles and quivers had been my uninvited companions for the past few days. My heartbeat raised as I walked towards him on the stage. His eyes met mine. All at once, a sharp twinge hit my spine exactly the way it did, the first time I saw him. Nothing had changed.. I realised. It was beautiful. There was an exchange of a million words.. of the love we shared.. of the promises made. Beside him stood an angel. Yes she was an angel indeed, in the elegant white gown with a bouquet as beautiful as her. I exchanged smiles with both of them and wished them luck as I descended the grandstand. There I was left... with a temporary smile and a permanent scar in my heart. ❤️

Feeling awkwardly awkward

In life we all come across some awkward humiliating situations, so awkward that you feel like getting metamorphosed into an ostrich all of a sudden so that you can shove your head into the soil and escape reality. Here are a few such moments we all would have confronted atleast once in our lives. 😒 Making eye contact with someone rushing toward your elevator, trying to get in, but the doors are already closing. 😒 When you narrate a terrible joke to your colleagues, and they don't hear you, so they ask you to repeat it, making the terrible joke even more terrible and useless. In the process of narrating it for the second time, you feel like stopping halfway, thinking, "Dude! I think you're wasting your time." 😒 When you're watching a movie with your family, and out of the blue, the couple starts making out, and your mom stares at you as if you were the assistant director of the movie. You say, "Errr... Popcorn anyone?" and quickly escape into t...

10 Silly and dumb things we all do

When was the last time you did something dumb or absurd? No matter how poised and elegant we tend to present ourselves everyday ,every moment, we always end up showing our fat-headed self at one point or the other. May it be FROM running to fetch a bubble wrap that has just fallen off the delivered package TO purposely ignoring an email and replying after an Era, that it ended up in the spam folder (What? Really?? What a rude human you must be!??) 😛 FROM secretly peeping into a near by trolley in the supermarket and judging their existence TO trying to overtake the fast walker in the pavement and end up walking like a pregnant ostrich in a hurry. FROM metally threatening your laptop to throw it off from the cliff, while it takes ages to reboot or when the screen freezes, TO trying to enact a lame sentimental movie scene (that you binge watched) while the water droplets drag themselves down on your face from the top- in the shower. All of us have been there- behaving like a ...

7 Annoying things people usually fake about

Finding fake things and people is lot more easier today than bumping into their genuine counterparts. In fact the most common thing people fake about these days is about having an exemplary, ultimate and the best weekend, while you would have in reality just dragged yourself from room to room in your dirty pyjamas binge watching your favourite Netflix series for the twenty fifth time with a huge basket of popcorn which you engulfed all by yourself. Faking has really become an everyday business today and it is okay only unless and until it doesn't annoy the person in front of you. Have you come across really exasperating and pesky people who annoyingly pretend certain things that it becomes so obvious.... so obvious.. that it is fake??!! 😒 Well here is a list of things that people by and large fake about..... 😏 Looks "Make up? No not at all.. This is how I wake up. May be you should start drinking more water", says the lady who I happen to stumble upon ev...

Relationship threshold

PC: the_capture_diaries Relationship!!! One of the most complicated words of all times! (atleast that's how we are made to believe) But is it? Nah! Not really. Just imagine- you get a soul mate, a confidante, an escort, a playmate, a companion, almost a complete family package including your siblings, your enemy, your crush, the annoying kid next door - all in one - for free free free. It's more like having an twin- an unadopted twin of yours with a lifetime warranty (who is technically not your twin ofcourse) with whom you can share goods and chattels, irritate, feel loved, miss, kiss and what not!? Have you ever rolled back to how it all began?? You meet your someone special , you get a spark- a thunderbolt strikes, you hear bells everywhere, there is music in your head and the juggling of every other cell in your body, butterflies here and there and everywhere and then finally you realize you are in LOVE. Initially you be all dressed up and poise and well behav...
