7 Thoughts That Cross Your Mind When You're Driving A Car For The First Time

So yes, I'm finally facing my fear of wheels and have set my feet on clutch and accelerator to race against the winds. I'm on an emotional-technical ride every single minute my hands are on the steering wheel. And the thought-turbulence my mind goes through, is something I believe everyone goes through once while trying on driving a car for the first time. Thank god, my driving instructor can't hear the thoughts crossing my mind!

Well, here's the list stuff I thought of while learning car driving.

1. I have to handle the clutch, break, accelerator, steering and the rear-view mirror, ALL AT THE SAME TIME!!!

2. Every time you leave the clutch for the car to move, IT STOPS!

3. And the moment you press the accelerator a little too much!

4. You wish you could do this to every vehicle trying to overtake you!

5. And then there's a moment you want to quit driving and continue taking the taxi.

6. This is how you imagine yourself driving at the moment.

7. This is how you see yourself driving in a few days, and it's apparently the only reason why you've decided to drive a car!

Perks of being a Solo Traveler: What my amazing Solo Trips taught me

Today marks the first anniversary of my first ever solo-trip. I had picked Agra, Uttar Pradesh for I was always mesmerized by the breathtakingly beautiful Taj Mahal. After somehow convincing my parents to allow me to travel alone, I landed up in Agra for a three-day trip. It's fun, it's slightly overwhelming, even weird at times, but the experience of being on your own in a new town taught me a lot. Here are some perks that the adventure of solo travel brings along with it: 1. You make all the rules: Wanna go lakeside at 5 am? Or feeling like taking a nap in the afternoon? You can do whatever you like, whenever you like. Evening walks by the sea shore or enjoying breeze in the balcony, it's totally your call. Taj Mahal, Agra, UttarPradesh 2. Staying at amazing hostels: Backpacker hostels are far safer and cheaper than hotel rooms. Moreover, sharing your dorm room with travelers from different nationalities is an...

The Stationery Shop of Tehran by Marjan Kamali (Book Reviews: 5/5)

The Stationery Shop of Tehran by Marjan Kamali is one of my first few books of the decade, and I'm so glad I came across this book at my local bookstore. This is one of books that stay with you for a long, long time. Marjan Kamali has poured so much love and pain and emotions in this book, it's almost impossible to finish it without teary eyes. The protagonists Roya and Bahman are a young couple whose romance starts and grows in a stationery shop belonging to Mr. Fakhri, who too has a small yet powerful role in the story. The narration, particularly of the Iranian lifestyle and households is remarkable and the reader finds her/himself in the streets of Tehran. All the side characters, including Zari, Mrs. Aslan, Jahangir, and Mr. Walter have been given enough and perfect amount of text space and power in the story. There's always something happening in the story and it's really hard for the reader to out the book down. The dilemma of relationships between Roya ...

The Broken Promise

“What is wrong with you, Vineet? Why the hell..oh God!” yelled a bewildered Sneha. She was sick of her boyfriend’s annoying habit of scaring street dogs by passing his bike near them at a lightning speed. “Come on Sneha, this is just for fun. I never do it hurt them. I never have.” But she chose to express her anger with silence. They were coming back from a fancy dress shop on Vineet’s motorbike. Sneha has auditioned for the International Ballet Dance competition and had cleared the state round. If she could impress the judges at the national level competition, she’d get a chance to represent India in France. She had always dreamt of becoming a professional ballet dancer and making her parents proud. Vineet and Sneha were returning from the shop which provided clothes for rent when this irritating incident happened for apparently the hundredth time. “You’re upset, and I know exactly what will bring your mood back to normal,” said Vineet, parking his bike in the parking z...
