A step into 'RAJASTHANI CULTURE' !!!

December 24th,2011 

Commonly known as the "Land of Kings", the topographical variation of Rajasthan, its culture is a wide spectrum of brilliant hues. Its colourful costume attracts everyone.!! Rajasthan is colorful because of what its people wear..The dull-colored monotone of the sands and hills look cheery with the vibrant spirits of the people who wear bright colors to make up for the absence of blossoming flowers..Rajasthani Turbans, this is what attracted us towards that place in the first go..

Rajasthani Turbans

..

 Rajasthani cuisine :
Rajasthani cuisine is very unique and it was my pleasure to experience and taste the rajasthani food that day !!The cuisine of Rajasthan is highly influenced by both the war-like lifestyles of its inhabitants and the availability of ingredients in the desert region. Scarcity of water and lack of fresh green vegetables also had their effect on Rajasthani cooking..

One particular Thali (थाली) consisted of 22 items in all ., including dal batti, chhajh, rice, bajre ki khichdi,raabdi and many more ..
For the purpose of drinking water, a special copper coated steel glass was used. It was i guess, about 5 times heavier han normal glass we use in our routine.

the special 'glass'

 In all. it was a great time experiencing the culture of North-West India, the way they live, eat .Had a great time !!!

Jingle Bells !!!!!

Dashing through the snow

In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh !!!!

MERRY TIME..!!! ITS CHRISTMAS TIME !!!!!

♥ TEENAGE ♥

Heyy !!! I am back to my blog aftr those hectic end-sems..phew !!

so here's my new post ..

Teenage ..as we ol know and are going through..Some quote it is the most beautiful period of  life and the lifetime memories...

A friend of mine told me a few months back : 

                   You will miss being a teenager when u grow up !!! 

Undoubtedly true ! 

No matter teenage is a roller-coaster ride..has ups and downs..sorrows and joys.. Not everyone will understand you.Not evryone will take up your side..Not everyone will pay heed to what you say ..People are two faced and they do act extra-sweet.Not a Big Deal !!,.People do consider other's feelings as toys to play with.Teenage is a sensitive stage..Attention, fun, parties, disc..one cant reach 20s by relying on these.. Teenage is like the sand that moulds your life ahead..what matters is the way we handle our feelings as well as others..Many a times, important dates are missed, compliments are forgotten..Sometimes we thank others without actually feeling it from the bottom of our hearts and sometimes we forget to give them that well deserved pat on the back..Thinking too much of others makes the original YOu into you to vanish away gradually..
Love yourself and the situation you live in .. 

               'You cannot spray the perfume of happiness on others without getting a few drops on yourself first'. 

Teenage is stressed with lotsa problems..Crush..Breakup.. Friends..Fight..Tears..Parents..

And above all.. GENERATION GAP !! ..

Parents have their own perception.Their own way to look at things.that definitely can never match with us.,In that case, one can never call them "outdated"..They no doubt, have more experience than us.and have seen more life.. Respect them.They do deserve it !

Enjoy ur fullest ..but dont forget the responsibilies you have..

There are miles to go before you sleep.!

Be tough..Act mature...Enjoy .. and most importantly  'Dont make anyone a priority in your life when you are just an option for them.'

Have a move on wen things start hurting..Be strong,,Enjoy life..Collect memories while you pass into ur 20s.. coz its the time that wont return...

Its teenage,!

its beautiful ♥

FALL IN LOVE...........

LIFE......♥♥

LiFE...if u ask a person at d bottom of the pyramid, life is getting an awesome nutirious dinner evryday with a nice desert.. asking a child, lie is getting favorite toys ,games,barbie sets..life is getting incentive for the buttering u did to ur boss.. for an aged lady, life is seeing her son well settled with a nice daughetr-in-law..
Basially, the definition for life is different for evry1..
But the actual thing is SelF SaTiSfAcTiOn.. the most important thing in life.. if u are satisfied wid all u have.. ul be happy .. happiness will make u cheerful, n develop a positive attitude towards life.. The butterfly counts the MOMENTs, not months.. and has time enough..These beautiful words by Tagore, stressed the fact that there is plenty of time for the one who WILLS..
we meet millions of ppl .. not evry1 we meet pleases us.. its human tendency .u naturally hate sum of them . But that doesnt mean the person is BAD.. each n evry living creature has his own view, own perception and the ways to luk at the things.. A single being cannot please evry1.. Whats important is keeping the priorities in mind,.. n doing wat ur ♥ says...
Open ur door of our heart .. n wlcum the opportunites on d way .. The opportunities, or the chances r like the sea shells in the sea. Though difficult to find, the number of them found is PLENTY., we just need to put are eyes alert so as to find them..
Enjoy all you do .. LOVE UR WORK AND WORK YOUR LOVE..
Take chances... The thrill in it makes u actually alive.. life isnt about finding urslf.. its about CREATING urself..
and above all .. LOVE URSELF... ♥
its not the years in your life that count.. its the life in your years..there cannot be anything worse than having a useless life.. what i call a useless life is as wen u turn back n luk behind, n u find no sweet memories ..Nevr explain urslf.. do wat ur heart says...Fall in love.. do exactly what pleases you..
u r not put on earth to please odrz.. Follow your dreams.. The world is YOURS .. !

D ORIGINAL 'ME'......★★

Here, me.. EsHiTa, am writting this blog to express what i perceive things like.. wat i feel ..
when i present this blog to you , i am actually presenting myslf ..tHe oRiGiNal mEe.. me lively, living, smiling,sharing my way of luking life..may be right or wrong..but no doubt dat is me.."Eshita.. d desire.." !!
In the course of life, in the rush of time, the keeping the promises we ought to , we leave behind many lovely dark woods with unsaid words n feelings in our minds, regrets, and sorrows.. Things r not alwys our side,..
For that , just "eXpReSs oUrSeLf" well .. and c d magic...
Its d way u take it..

Be happy ,, smile.. live ..love ..n express..
