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 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...

The Kiss Of Life by Emraan Hashmi (Book Review- 4/5)

  Emraan Hashmi's debut book The Kiss Of Life, co-authored by Bilal Siddiqi is the story of how Emraan's son Ayaan fought the battle of cancer despite all the tough times faced by his family and the four-year-old himself. The book revolves around two time phases: how Emraan Hashmi became the 'actor' Emraan Hashmi and the half-a-year-long cancer battle of Ayaan Hashmi. The Foreword by actor Akshay Kumar is pretty touching and inspiring.  The book begins with an utterly shocked father who ran with his son to a hospital after discovering something very unusual going on in his son's body. The quick happenings in the hospital take the reader to the hospital itself; doctors flashing from one room to other, nurses keeping things quick in the corridor, a stunned yet brave face mother accompanying her son to the operation theatre and a father trying very hard to hold his tears. The entire narration is so straight from the heart, the reader can find him/herself right in th...
