Birthday!

Yesterday was my 14th birthday. It was the best birthday ever! The day began with my mom coming up to my bed side and wishing me. At school, I was wished countless times! And the treat at the canteen was awsome! Chowmein, rolls, samosas and cold drinks.....couldn't have asked for more. After coming home I had my favourite home food- rice and chicken curry.When my mom and dad came back they handed me a gift wrapped box. As I had already received my gift, I was surprised. It was a new phone! Yippeee!!  I went online to check out what was going on in Facebook and Twitter. On Twitter, I tweeted to all my favourites- Brett Lee, Shah Rukh Khan and my favourite MasterChef Australia contestants Michael Weldon, Hayden Quinn and Ben Milbourne. And then I was pleasantly surprised to see that Michael had replied! I ran and jumped! After that I discovered that James Knight,co-author of My Life, had replied to one my tweets where I had asked my friend to follow him! He thanked me for my support and asked me to keep in touch. I was ecstatic! In the evening I had dinner plans with friends..! We went completely bonkers there! I had a great birthday!!! Thanks to my parents and friends for making it special!

Barfi! Review

I am a big fan of Shah Rukh Khan but I do like Ranbir Kapoor a lot. I had been waiting to watch Barfi! for a long time and my wish came true yesterday. I don't where to start! What I can say is that I absolutely loved the movie! A sweet movie that can make you laugh and cry at the same time. It tells us not to ignore our love, once lost it never comes back. It portrays human emotions beautifully. The character of Barfi keeps you entertained throughout. He spread happiness wherever he went. The movie was a flashback of 1978 which contained a flashback of 1972. The story keeps jumping between these three times. However,these transitions were at the right time and made sense. All actors were brilliant in their roles. Ileana D'Cruz plays the character of Shruti, the girl with whom Barfi fell in love. She did well in the character and there were good emotions. Priyanka Chopra played Jhil Mil, an autistic girl. PC made it seem very realistic. Finally, Ranbir Kapoor who played Barfi. He was exceptional! He conveyed so much without uttering a word. Infact, his silence permits the audience to enjoy his superb expressions. I am at a loss of words actually. He can make us laugh, he can make us cry. I was completely absorbed in the movie the whole time. Even after the movie finished,I kept thinking about it. It is one of the sweetest movies I have seen! So if you haven't watched the movie,make sure you catch it! I hope to be writing again soon. Till then don't worry, be Barfi!

Funny...

I couldn't think of a good title for this post. This isn't funny stuff at all. Its something that me and my friends are going through this moment. There are moments when we feel low. For people of my age it's usually studies,exams and marks. But in these times it is our parents and our friends who stick to us. They encourage us to keep going and keep improving. Well then there's no point going away from your friends at that time. Friends are there for you to be yourself. So make sure that you lighten up yourself by letting us know of your troubles. Just come back and be yourself. Its not the same without you. Be yourself and be the rocking person you are!! Don't go away from us...

Cooking!

During the exams I realised how important cooking is in my life. I could spend the whole day in the kitchen and think that it was a brilliant day. The exams deprived me of this pleasure. As we were approaching the end of the dark tunnel of exams I made a new resolution. After the end of exams I decided to cook something new every weekend. I have also decided to help in cutting and chopping of vegetables for the weekend meals. This will help in polishing my knife skills. The culinary world is one my career options! This weekend I cooked but something which I have made hundreds of times. Plain vanilla cake. That's what mom wanted to eat. I want to try out some new recipes next weekend onwards. So wish me luck!

Happy Days!

Hey! My apologies for not having updated the blog for so long. My exams had completely killed my normal life! Now that they are over, I'm gonna have some good fun..! So lets rewind a little bit. Today I had my maths exam. This was a freaky exam. The first section went well. Section B caused a lot of trouble. We had to attempt any four questions. Somehow I was unable to solve pretty much anything! I was almost on the verge of crying and breaking down. Finally, I told myself that there's no point crying. I might as well calm down and try. And miraculously I managed to solve four questions! This was a complete roller coaster of an exam! So anyway now that its done and dusted I am ready to destress. Today my friend said something that is completely true. While exams are on we feel like doing thousands of things. Once they are over those things don't really please us. The one thing that I am going to do is some baking. Its something I love and I have a new recipe book to try out some desserts. And Barfi has released! I'm dying to watch it! So I really hope this weekend is enough for me to relax!

How Strange...

Hey! I have not been able to post due to my class 9 half-yearly. With a long weekend in hand I can express myself once more. This is all about my exam this year. This one has been a very strange one. Somehow studying doesnt seem like the best thing to do in the evening. During the exams I tend to forget things that I shouldn't. Its the same with all my classmates. Some of the best in the class are having a bad exam occassionally. As for me, no exam has succeeded in giving me a great feeling. Again its the same with everyone in my class. Its a funny feeling. God knows why this is happening but I suppose this is class 9!
