Ban Body Odour

So, finally monsoon is here!
We have started experiencing the amazing rains and Creation of a romantic weather here in Mumbai.
But the biggest turn off of this weather is the body odour of your partner...:(
Imagine you and your mate are sitting together on a cozy chair.
Having a cup of tea and listening to the rains from your window.
Suddenly you notice a weird odour emerging from your partner.
What you do next?
Would you move away...OR
Would you continue by resisting and getting comfortable with the odour?
Nivea Has come up with a new product which has got the solution to this problem.
No its not a deodrant!
Its India's first deodorizer!





The basic and the biggest difference between THE DEODORIZER and the normal deoderants is that...
The deodorizer doesn't just mask the odour... But prevents the formation of the smell in the first place unlike the deoderants...which just try to mask the odour by their own fragrance which is for very short period of time.

I attended the #SniffSniff product unveilingevent by BlogAdda in association with Nivea


The event stated with a great session where we were asked to tie a blindfold on our team mates.

These team mates were asked to smell 5 different items and were asked to describe the personality of a person bearing such smell.


 The same session continued with some points which are very much usefull for avoiding bad odour.
The points included:-
Good apatite.
Eating leafy vegetables.
Avoid or less alcohol.
Avoid onions and garlic.


The session explained with the approach towards bad odour and how to confront someone about it.


There was yet another surprise...!
Mr. ARJUN RAMPAL was in the house!!

Had a chat about the same topic and he answered how he deals with body odour.

 


The meet concluded with a press conference and with the official launch of the product !

Stop elder abuse

Thinking about the fact of getting old haunts me as hell!
Imagining myself unable to do my own chores and relying on someone else for my basic chores ...:(

I had read a couple of tales in my school days..

There was a family of 4..
A couple their 15 year son and 85 year old father.

Dinner was setup my the lady of the house.

She took out a set of nice expensive glassware for the dinner.

Severed everyone except the 85 year old father .

It was fathers turn to be served now.

She went inside the kitchen got couple of wooden crooked dishes and served him in the same.

When their son asked the reason.

She explained " He is old. His hand shivers a lot. Glassware is too expensive item for him."

The son didn't question back.

Late that night she found her son making something out of the waste log of wood.

She asked him about it.

His answer was breath taking and mind changing for any human.

He said "I am making wooden plates for you . So that we don't fall short of them"

She realised and went into tears.

The second tale was about ...
A mother sent to an old age home by his young son.

He rarely visited her.

She was in her final stages.

Her son came for a final visit.

He asked her for her last wish.

She replied " please donate some fans in the old age home and if you can please install them too."

Son wondering " Why are you asking fans now? You won't be able to use them."

Mom replied with a kind tone " I was able to bear without fans all my life but when your son sends you here you won't be able to take the heat."

The son was shattered and realised what a big sin he did.

These are some stories which very mildly describe about elder abuse.

I have seen worse.

Wife treating their in-laws as some kind of slaves.

I am getting depressed even while writing this .
How can someone treat their parents like this.

I find such people mentally unstable.

A man wisely said to his young son.
" I am holding your hand now that you need me.
But don't forget to hold mine when I need you."

This topic has not been in picture for a long time now.
With feminist issues,child labour etc now is the time we open up our eyes and start acting wisely against elder abuse.

So this 15th June is the world elder abuse awareness day .

A great end or A new beginning?


Finally its over!!!
After Four years of great struggle its done!
No one can take it back from me!
Yeah... I too graduated as an IT engineer today!
Today was the last exam of my final year of engineering.
During the exam I had to answer 12 questions .
You could literally see from number 12 struck down to number 1.
As we have a new years countdown.
Those attempted questions were like a new life* countdown for me.
As soon as I finished answering the last answer , I stroked down number 1 and made it to "BE IT engineer" !
That awesome feeling when you overcome a milestone after facing and tackling hundreds of hurdles is amazing!
There were 15mins still left for the bell to ring and I started having flashbacks about the college days that I enjoyed.
Most people have one graduation college but I have the pleasure of having two.
I still remember the first days of both my colleges.
But then a thought crossed my mind.
Are the days of fun and rejoice all over?
Now I too will have to start taking responsibilities .
Now I too will have to start taking life seriously.
All the night outs with friends ,those Xbox games  ,all over.
The thought of a monotonous life with a nine to five job started to haunt me.
All of u sudden the examiner said "you can leave now"
Which sounded to me as if she is trying to say "you can finally leave the college and start with your boring life"
Now am thinking ...who knows the new life might not be that boring.
People around me are just over exaggerating.
Like they said when I entered engineering "Engineering bohot tough hai"

But I will surely miss my college days and the friends that I made there.
Hoping for the best for everyone's future ...
Signing off
For the first time
