Take A Chill-Pill

Life is unsure; always eat your dessert first- Anonymous

Aleksandra Rybinska

Hey Folks! :)
Time for the Happiness Dose :D If you have missed other two, Read here~ Happiness is a measure of Life and here~ Change is Inevitable

Today, I'll be talking about Three Spheres of Life that can inspire (I hope) you and change your perception as well! <3 .. Wear your thinking caps dearies :)

1. Love Love Love

Since I'm the biggest believer of Love; this had to be on the top!
Though I've spoken a Lot about Love.. (Read here), I will not bore you with what I think of Love :P Remember two things~
  Love is No Science, yet you need Chemistry! 
and 
Love doesn't have any formula, yet you need to make each second count!




I can't teach you how to Love.. Not because I'm no saint.. No! Love is Universal. It is different to each, yet holds the same feeling. It means different to each yet symbolizes the same signs...
Love expresses, love resists. Love feels, love glows!

Just be All Happy and You.. And show love to each one whom you care about.. See the change it brings in you :)

2. Negativity

Yes, you read it right! Negativity is so important to us that we just don't want to leave it ever. We Hold it tightly till it suffocates us!!! 
Let me tell you- the only feeling that is bigger in my life is #1. (above) I don't want negativity to hover over my head! So people.. Take out your cell phone and Do as I say..



Have you taken out your cell phone yet? Cm'mon.. Don't be lazy. Go get it. I promise you it's worth the butt-lift! ;)

Now open your contact list AND Delete the FIVE contacts whom you haven't talked to in 1-2 years.. OR Delete THE FIVE contacts who give you a Pain in your A** ... AND Do that without hesitating when the phone asks you- 'Are you Sure?' Believe me- YOU ARE!



This is just the starting step.. Gradually you'll know what/who is causing problem and you'll kick them out of your life for good :) Life is too SHORT to THINK TWICE!

I did- It's your turn now!


3. YOU

This one's no rocket science! You is You. No one is like you. Don't laugh it's true :P lol okay..

See, if you stop doing whatever you are doing.. and look around you (outside) you'll notice something. You cannot Find A single Person LIKE YOU! There might be similarities cos cm'mon girls ;) - shopping, movies, gossip, fun etc etc.. but Not a single person who talks like you, walks like you, smiles like you, cares like you and most importantly~ Loves Like You! Is there?
If there is, then I'm ready to give a free Blog Gift to both of you :P



My Point. Stop being like someone.. Stop chasing someone who doesn't care about you.. Stop making excuses and compromising on your beliefs.. Stop lowering your self-esteem! 
Instead, Stand up for yourself, Say Bi**h 3 times to people who are jealous of you, smile and let everyone know that you're happy.. Do whatever it takes to make yourself happy :)





Before going, tell me- How many of you are coming to the Biggest Blogger's Meet in India, tomorrow? It's in New Delhi, Saket, MGF Metropolitan mall. I am. I hope to see you guys there :)
Also, I want to tell you that I have started learning FRENCH.. :D Because My exams are over and I'm an Engineer now!!! Yipppeeeeee :)

Now, parting words :D
Recently, while reading a research paper on Euthanasia (in syllabus), I came across a line that opened my eyes!

|| The purpose of life is to be happy and to make others happy if possible, to grow old gracefully and to die with dignity ||

Never thought, a research paper would make me think about life! But it's true.. Right?

So I leave on this note and ask you to follow your heart, leave grudges behind and love yourself :)

DIY: Make a BoW!

Hey Party People!!!!
Are you having a Saturday Night out or sitting at home with your family?

Well, let me tell you, weather here is AWESOME! I'm not the kind of person who puts up statuses like "Rain <3" , "Awesome Mausam (weather) " etc etc .. Today.... I'm no different. :D. So I'll just say it here.. That such weather is a great time to catch up with some friends, read a book or just listen to music :)

Before you do that, let me show you a ..
* Colorful, Bright and Fun* DIY !!! ~ How to Make A BOW at Home!

You must have seen some amazing bow ideas on clothes, bags, accessories, shoes.. Guess what? I'll show you an easy-to-do creation :) Let's begin!

You  must have seen this Pink Bow in my Previous Post: HERE
The Black N White Polka Dot bag is from Oasap.com


Here is how you can make a cute bow in varied sizes :)

Step 1: Take a piece of old Cloth, Any measurement! For starters, I used
Length- 8.5" (Big cloth) and 5.0" (Small cloth)
Width- 4.5" (Big cloth) and 2.5" (Small cloth)



Step 2: Fold both the clothes along the width.


Step 3: PIN the openings so that it doesn't open up and SEW it!


Step 4: Turn the cloth in such a way that the stitched part comes on top middle! Press/Iron it.


Step 5: Fold the bigger cloth into half. PIN and SEW it!


Step 6a: Turn the bigger folded cloth to bring the stitches upfront (like you did before).
Step 6b: Wrap the smaller cloth around the bigger cloth. Tighten it and PIN & SEW it.


Step 7: Trim the excess part of small cloth. Voila! You are done! :)
