Text of the page (random words):
eks skip ahead two years and ektaa topped her year in college prinstan bought her a teddy bear as a gift but ektaa was apprehensive about taking it since they weren t all that close after all he mailed her a picture of it anyway over the next 2 3 years they d keep chatting over the internet meeting a few times when he came to bombay on leave and going back to chatting when he left it was then that some of her closest friends moved away and ektaa found herself talking more and more to prinstan she realised that even if she was alone in person he was there for her to share things with albeit in another country their friendship deepened even further when he finally returned from china for good they were able to speak more often meet more often and spend more time with each other they weren t dating but he soon became one of her closest friends when exactly dosti began transitioning into pyaar neither of the two could tell but within each of their minds the possibility of something beyond just friendship started blooming pretty soon ektaa thought that he seemed like the right guy for her having pretty much all the qualities she was looking for and more than anything else he d been there for her when she needed someone to talk to could it be possible that he felt the same way too prinstan did he thought that she seemed like the right girl for him but ever since she d told him off about the teddy bear he bought her he didn t want to come across too strong and he wasn t sure if she was looking for a relationship so they spoke and met and spent more time with each other but neither of them said a word that year prinstan invited ektaa home for his birthday it was a close knit affair mostly his family and close friends it was all very chilled out and friendly and they had a great time later he met her again this time to invite her to his place for christmas not being able to stand the suspense any longer she had to ask him to put it simply what are we and just like that dosti completely turned into pyaar ps prinstan did eventually give ektaa the teddy bear earlier this year next post in the series the bachelorette share this tweet share on tumblr email a link to

diaries 3 no pressure 21 october 2016 20 november 2016 rewa 3 comments my cousin sister is getting married to the love of her life this december and it s pretty insane read the rest of the series here the wedding diaries wedding shopping is insane like insane i d already told you about the notebook and how we d noted down pretty much exactly what we d wanted each bridal outfit to be so armed with the notebook we set off to surat to commence shopping we have family living in surat and they told us there s a whole lot of choice there for bridal clothes and they were not wrong and so began the 5 hour trip from bombay to surat which is a great drive by the way it s a straight well maintained road down national highway 8 and with the right kind of music we like to jam to bollywood music and abba alike and a halt at hotel ahura for their amazing parsi akuri 10 10 would recommend if you love eggs it s a perfect road trip we even tried to make a consolidated guest list on the way note the word tried once we had settled down at our aunt s place and had lunch a lot of lunch because while in surat you eat a lot we ventured out to some of the shops every shop we went into had the same atmosphere as the other as soon as you walk in we d have 2 3 people come up to us and say aaiye kya dikhau aapko aaj please come in what do you want to see today and we d say the same thing in every shop bridal wear soon we d all be ushered into chairs at the counters even offered tea coffee we d tell them what kind of stuff we were looking for and we d have a salesman or two showing us various lehengas saris and gowns fit for a bride your usual shopping routine some of them were absolutely lovely and some of them were absolutely ugly ektaa and i had fun subtly whispering sarcastic remarks about the ugly ones to each other there was so much variety ektaa tried on a myriad of clothes we tried covertly taking photos of them covertly because most shops don t allow photography there were so many dresses where we liked the skirt but not the blouse or vice versa or where we liked the style but not the colour it was so so hard to decide so every time someone from our little shopping party told ektaa to hurry up and decide i d say but no pressure it soon became a little joke ektaa it s your turn to shower but no pressure ektaa do you have an extra hair tie but no pressure ektaa there are jalebis for breakfast come eat but no pressure if you ever come across an indian salesman you would know his power of selling sometimes they say the quirkiest things to get you to buy something from their shop madam this has pure hand made embroidery you won t get it anywhere else madam aap try toh karke dekho madam at least try it on and then see madam this style is in fashion right now but it will stay in fashion till december also madam this is actually more expensive but i will give it to you at a discounted rate madam this colour is perfect for you madam this time to me aap bhi try karke dekho however we found one salesman that topped the list he said madam yeh advance trend hai 2017 ka abhi just aaya hai aur sirf humare dukaan mein milega madam this is an advance trend from 2017 we just received it and you will only find it in our shop we had to try so hard to hide our sniggering at that one finally two and a half days a lot of yummy heavy gujju meals multiple shops and millions of trips to the trial room later we had two outfits for the bride were they exactly as we d planned them to be in the notebook about 50 ish i d say although it wasn t solely a crazy shopping spree trip every trip we make to surat is incomplete without a dinner party at home with amazing gujarati snacks and food and lots of laughter we chit chatted and gossiped and took selfies and played games my youngest nephew and niece put up a dance performance for us and we even purchased hot wheels cars from them by paying money from the game of life it was super fun all in all it was a successful trip and soon enough we were making our way back to bombay exhausted from all that walking around and shopping in the week that followed ektaa picked out her bridal lehenga for the reception from bombay itself and that one was exactly as we d written in the notebook yay as the wedding date gets nearer and nearer we re getting equal parts excited and stressed you never really know how much there is to do for a wedding until there s one happening that you re actually a part of but it s pretty darn cool that there s so many people putting in so much effort to bring two souls together and celebrate love next part in the series here pyaar dosti hai share this tweet share on tumblr email a link to a friend opens in new window email more share on reddit opens in new window reddit like loading inktober x navratri 2016 11 october 2016 31 october 2016 rewa 6 comments i love to doodle it s the one activity that is a fool proof stress buster for me so this year i decided to follow inktober for those of you who don t know inktober is an initiative started by jake parker the idea is to make an ink drawing every day during the month of october all inktober posts are found online under inktober navratri literally translating to nine nights is a hindu festival spanning over nine days celebrating the victory of good over evil it is celebrated in different ways in different parts of india but essentially involves the worship of goddess durga the day after navratri is called vijayadashami or dusshera it s generally a 10 11 day period depending on the hindu calendar which is based on the cycles of the moon there s a fun tradition that is followed during navratri each day is assigned a colour mostly you wear that colour on that day it s pretty cool to see hordes of people dressed in a single colour when you step out of the house this year navratri began on 1st october same as the first day of inktober and that s how inktober x navratri 2016 was born i made a doodle each day from 1st to 11th october in the colour assigned to that date as per navratri traditions have a look day 1 grey day 2 orange day 3 white day 4 red day 5 blue day 6 yellow day 7 green day 8 peacock green day 9 purple day 10 sky blue day 11 pink i ll be continuing inktober for the rest of the month you can check out my instagram rewa2303 where i post all my art edit check out

september 2016 28 september 2016 rewa 8 comments ma i can t sleep the loud noises have started again i remember when we d burst firecrackers and there would be pretty coloured lights in the night sky you would tell me not to go too close to the firecrackers so that i don t burn these noises are just like those firecrackers ma but they re so much louder are they bursting firecrackers ma maybe they have ones bigger than those we could afford maybe that s why the lights beyond my curtain are so much brighter won t they burn so much more what are those planes in the sky ma it looks like they are dropping balls of fire from there all the houses are burning and people are running from within them there is so much noise loud bangs and screams why is everyone screaming ma are they hurt the fire must be so hot you always told me to stay away from your cooking fire when you would make hot curry for me and pa to eat but that was such a little fire these flames are as big as the houses they are burning i am scared ma the noises are getting louder the screams of people are getting higher even when i cover my ears i can still hear them there is so much dust and heat i can barely breathe ma the balls of fire are still dropping to the ground faster now the sky is no longer dark it is outlined by large yellow orange flames did you know that yellow was my favourite colour ma i don t like it that much anymore i think i prefer blue like that dress you had worn on my 5 th birthday last week you looked so beautiful that day ma with that little white flower in your hair we played all my favourite games in the park opposite our house remember i think that park is on fire right now ma where are you ma the walls are shaking in my room and the door is blocked with large blocks of stone there was a very loud noise and now i feel like i can t hear anything can you hear me ma i keep calling out to you but you aren t coming you always come when i have a nightmare ma i think i m having a nightmare but i don t think i m sleeping can that happen too ma can i get nightmares even when i m awake the stones near my door are too heavy ma i cannot move them there is a hole in the roof above me and i can see the sky and i can see the planes they are right above us i feel so tired ma i think i have been asleep for a while maybe it was all a nightmare all the fire and the planes and the noises and the hole in the roof it is very bright suddenly i can barely open my eyes i can see a lot of people around me they are saying something i cannot hear them but i m not lying on my mattress there are only stones here and pieces of wood i don t understand ma where is my bed one of the men picks me up and carries me away from all the stones his arms are warm he puts me into a chair it is so much softer than all those stones but where am i ma where are you a man has come up to me and he is looking at me i think he is asking me some questions you told me not to talk to strangers ma but i cannot hear him and so i don t know what to say to him i just continue sitting in the chair quietly i feel so sore ma my head is hurting i press my head with my hand and it hurts even more there is something wet and sticky in my hair i look at my hand it is covered with grey dust and the sticky red thing i had taken a bath after returning from the playground this evening i know you get mad when i don t clean up how did i get dirty again ma who are these strange men ma they seem nice they smile at me too they even gave me some water but i don t see you anywhere ma where are you why am i not in our home will pa be able to fix the hole in the roof i feel so cold and so tired and so sore all at the same time i just want to sleep ma but i don t know where you are hi this story was inspired by omran daqneesh the little boy who was pulled out of the rubble after air strikes in aleppo syria i ve tried to do justice to the trauma that he and thousands of others must have felt during these air strikes in the best way that i could i hope from the bottom of my heart that peace reigns again soon i don t think we can afford to lose any more innocent lives than we already have this haunting image of omran just after he was pulled out of the rubble after the air strikes in aleppo was the inspiration behind this story i ve also submitted this story for the tata literature live mystory contest and if you liked what you just read please go over to this link i m rewa01 and vote for me it would mean the world to me cheers rewa share this tweet share on tumblr email a link to a friend
