Plight in Mumbai



A sad day today for all the Mumbaikars!
The space crunch is getting even worse. People lost their lives due to improper or inadequate facilities provided. The Government really needs to buck up.
The news of the Elphinstone Road station stampede has shocked everyone. Being the last day of Navratri, many people throng to the Mahalaxmi temple and as it’s a working day, it is always crowded. But the death of 22 people (as declared in the news) is sad.
Mumbai is a city with the ever-changing climate. Sometimes it is hot and another second raining heavily. Mumbai has never been ready for the rains. A month back, heavy rains again crippled the city. Potholes everywhere and now “STAMPEDE” due to space crunch.
Numerous people throng to the city of dreams every day. The population is rising, but basic amenities are not yet upgraded. AC or bullet trains will not solve any population issue. Right now what Mumbaikars need are better amenities like proper roads, flood management, better transport services.
Mumbai is the highest tax paying city and should be able to withstand any force of nature at any given time. “Cripple” cannot be a part of Mumbai’s dictionary.

Beauty products I use

So I am listing certain products that I use (some very rarely).  I love to keep it simple every day. Since it is winter, I rely on Nivea and Vaseline products. 1. Nivea's Strawberry Shine is great for lip care. It gives a strawberry shade and also a little shine on the lips. It can also be used during summer and it is really great. Price:  ₹ 150. Nive Strawberry Shine 2. I have recently bought Coloressence Liplicious Gloss. I have never tried this product before but I absolutely love it. I have taken a pretty pink shade and it's Amazing!!! It also moisturizes the lips. What else does a girl need? Price:  ₹  350. If you buy it from Crawford Market (Beauty Center) or the one just opposite Grant Road Station (W), you might get a 10% OFF.

Aloe Vera to the RESCUE!!!

Aloe Vera How to get your skin naturally glowing pimple-free? Apply aloe vera.  It is the most natural moisturizer you can find. It is easy to grow in your homes as well.  What you need is  Aloe vera gel, fresh from the plant. Cut one leaf and cut out any thorns on them. Apply directly to the skin. It dries off easily and is light-weight on the skin. Keep it for like half an hour (or more as per your requirement) and remove with just water.  After this procedure, you will feel your skin refreshed and glowing. You can even apply aloe vera gel to your hair. It is best to provide softness and moisturization. For this, you can cut a few leaves, take out the pulp and grind it in the grinder. Then boil the gel with oil and store. You can use it for a longer time. If you do have tips regarding any natural home-made beauty tips, then please go forward and share.

Struggles of being a SHORTY!

Boho chic Being a shorty sometimes can be a menace... When you are young and if you have a sibling, you are happy that you have height. But once you hit puberty and your height doesn't increase, there starts all the taunts and teasing. Even your younger sibling would have height.  I myself had a great height when young but now only 5 ft, being the shortest among family and friends. The only advantage is standing in front for all photos and selfies.  Some struggles that I can list is: 1. People telling you to increase your height 2. Needing a tall guy (your selfie stick) to click great selfies 3. Always needing to look up while talking 4. People using you for support or to lean on 5. Being called a child every time 6. Getting advice to wear heels 7. Tiptoeing 8. Never find the right size for clothes or shoes 9. People doubting the way you drive 10. Getting lost in the crowd Some great advantages: 1. Being called "cute" 2. Always ahead for phot...
