I need help

-
It looks like an inverted dimple
But it's really not so simple
It's a feeling of depression and killjoy
It can make you cringe and weep
And can rob you of your sleep
It can plunder all your happiness and joy

It settles like a pest
Like an uninvited guest
It will stay on, no matter how hard you try
For some, it will be worse,
Like an ancient Indian curse,
The pimple was created to destroy

It makes me hide and shiver
Throw a boulder at my mirror
I left my best friends pleading at my gate
All the latest disco parties,
No, I can't come, all you smarties
Why don't you leave me by myself to hibernate?

They make these little marks
Like I got bitten by some sharks
These pimples are the bane of my existence
The boys, they call me Spotty
It makes me feel like potty
These little monsters are just testing my persistence

I wish I had a trick
Or perhaps a magic stick
To make this globule vanish like a ghost
If you give me a solution
Or a clever magic potion,
I will share with you my favourite chicken roast 

I'll come out into sunlight
Not look like a monster of the night
Someone, please come to my aid!!!
I can't stand this any longer,
This pus filled mischief monger
My tiny teenage nerves are getting frayed

I will kiss your hands and feet
And I’ll give you every treat
I want a glowing skin, come whatever!
If you tell me what to do
Make my face as good as new
And I’ll wash your feet and denims, aah...forever!!!

How to combat swimming pool chlorine

Dear friends,  As I write this, the summer is beating down outside my window and not a single leaf moves on the gulmohar tree next to my house. Isn't this the most opportune time to bring out your swimming costumes and dive into the pool? Swimming is one of the best exercises ever but unfortunately, I can't reall say the same thing about its effects on your hair. If you are not particularly careful, you may end up with an athlete's chiselled body and hair looking like the cow's chewing cud.  I remembered an article which I had written long ago for some magazine which spoke about hair care for swimmers. I am reproducing it here for all those of you who swim but don't know how to take care of the chlorine in the water. Here they are. I hope these tips are useful to you. Before your swim, wet your hair If you are a regular swimmer, you must have seen the showers that surround the pool. They are there for a reason more important than pool decorati

She may wear shorts...so does that make her a slut?

Having given your topic a thought, I think there are three types of people. Type 1: People who are only taught to look not think -          These are the people who are brought up to believe in stereotypes. For e.g. if you wear a saree, you have a behenji mentality…or if you wear a bikini, you are easy and slutty…or if you wear jeans to office, you take your work casually…and so on and so forth. -          They are not taught to think deeply, or look beyond the outer shell of just about anything...people, houses, situations so they take everything at face value. -          More often than not, they are a product of extreme low confidence. They are not proud of where they come from, who they are and this more often than not rubs off on their opinion of others. Type 2: Those people who blindly follow culture and traditions -          These are, more often than not, the opposite of the people above. They have a false superiority complex about themselves. -          It

Review: Origin

Origin by Dan Brown My rating: 3 of 5 stars 1. Great one time read. It goes on and on towards the end, I thought, but I still wanted to finish it since it was quite enthralling. 2. While reading, I thought that the end will be lame but I was pleasantly surprised. Of all his books, the end of this book brought home a few truths which are staring at us in the face. 3. If you want to read Dan Brown, be equipped with your Wikipedia page open on your computer or mobile phone. There are so many historical facts thrown in and most of his books feature some real places. It is quite a treat to look them up while reading the book, so as to a clearer picture of the proceedings in the novel. View all my reviews
