How to root Samsung galaxy y

Hello world!!

Finally we successfully made our fist video!

If your Samsung Galaxy Y has super less space you can root it and get some more space to install other stuff!

Here we go!!

We are on twitter >> +Gizmomaniacs 

OMG! Am I pregnant and other such things

Sex is pleasure and it can be a pain in ass if done wrong (pun intended J )! Din’t your momma tell you a thing or two about it?

Being Indian I’m sure your answer would be “No”!

But lemme tell you something..Google that shit….

Many of the girls are shy of buying sanitary pads, bras and condoms in public… Many of the local vendors hide these things in a black plastic bag and then hand it over… ah that ain’t no hash man.. It’s just a part of being a woman.

Common query somewhere was… I had my periods then I had “relationship” with my boyfriend..it has been a month periods are not back..I’m scared!

First: Dahlin, you din’t have relationship.. you had sex..

Second: Have you ever heard of protection??

Third: Emergency contraceptives???

If you were fine with it, were ashamed of buying this happily available stuff then do you have right to cry and complain?

NO!

Be ashamed of being wrong, be ashamed when you lie, be ashamed if you don’t even try before you quit.

Don’t be ashamed of your body, the biology and the fact that men and women were designed this way and there is absolutely nothing wrong (morally too) in doing what you feel is RIGHT J

What do you think?

Cheers to beautiful life!

Battle of sexes? Nope! Let’s talk RIGHT

The little girl was playing with food bowl. She carried it to her dad and grandmother said, “Good she is preparing herself for future!”

Which future I wonder!

Who are we to define a two-year-old’s future?

Yes! We are nobody to decide. We have no business here.

Root Cause?

Mothers! Ah mothers love their kids so much.. they want the best for them. Still most of moms who are inclined towards their sons or well, have only sons tend to do something terrible, a well.. out of love though.. They train them to be dependent. They train them NOT to cook. The sister is taught cooking even if she is younger and the brother eats.. ummm..mostly..

The result:

When you get into a relationship or marriage … being a girl you are EXPECTED to cook and TAKE CARE of the household.

I wonder who made this rule.

I know.. I know.. you will things are changing and all that bull-shit…Or may be things are better than they were..

But is that all we want? I mean.. BETTER that is all we aim for?

Damn! Nope.. Hell no.. We should aim for what is right.. That is what we should aim for..

Dear Mothers

Don’t train your son to eat delicacies, train to cook some. Don’t make them feel it is their right to GET things and kitchen is a place of female domination. Tell them their Dad is WRONG in not helping you in your household duties. Tell them how difficult it has been for you to manage. Once in a while instead of feeding them with aloo parathas ask them to make some rotis for you. Teach them what is RIGHT and not what has been going on since generations.

A girl on the other hand gets soooo used to doing all the stuff that she thinks she can be a super-woman.  She is made to believe that she is supposed to do it all and that she has to be perfect. She is told that she is the one who has to balance work and family. She is supposed to do it without asking WHY!

Let me ask you WHY? Please leave your answer in the comment… If you are a guy and you can make decent rotis- I respect you, I <3 you!! J

Cheat sheet to ladybug/ladybird nails

Beautiful nail art can be simple if you cheat a little :)

You do not need to do it all with nail polish..

For your lady bird/lady bug nails you will need

1. Nail paint (red, blue and transparent)
2. Black marker
3. Red and white poster colours

Simple steps!

1. Remove your old nail colour with nail paint remover

2. Paint the base coat

3. Use the marker to draw the dots on all the other nails except one

4. Draw lady bug/lady bird outline with the marker

5. Fill it with red poster colour and make two dots for eyes with white one

6. Add black dots and outlines

7. Let it dry and then apply the transparent coat and voila! You have managed to paint lady bug nails!

Do not do layers after layers..let your paint dry every time before you apply a new coat :)

Have fun!!

This is what I did on this pleasant sunday evening, what did you do?

Understanding twitter – For those who are alien to the twitterverse

I tweet therefore I am!

For a ‘twitterholic’ like me twitter is a virtual home. It’s a place where I have built relationships and understood a lot about life, people, places, and what not.

When someone tells me “I’m not a 140 chars person” or even worse things like “Why would I talk with random strangers on web”, a part of me sighs!

So I’m going to talk about 3 basics of twitter, there are many which I’ll keep on sharing later J

About 140 chars: Who doesn’t love short statements and if you can’t sum something up in few words you haven’t understood it well enough. You can tell a story in 140 chars! I’m not a man of few words is just a myth. Give it a try and you’ll see inspiration comes through few words and not many paragraphs. Also who has time for longer stories?!

Meeting strangers: Every single person you know practically was a stranger once. Even the ones we know turn out to be frauds or two-faced. Meeting someone virtually is same as meeting someone at a park, at school/college/work or a conference. This space just widens your possibilities.

I’m insecure: Don’t know what for! Well, security threats are always going to be there. No matter where you are you are always at risk. So that is just not a reason!

If you have anymore doubts always feel free to ask!

Cheers!!

Nandi hills - a trip above the clouds

I haven't seen the cloud nine but Nandi hills is absolutely above it!

Some 60kms from Bangalore is a little heaven on mountains, it is called Nandi Hills. One fine night we decided to gear up and ride our way to this beautiful place!

Here is my story!!

Very very early in the morning we reached, it was too dark..the ride had been amazing!

The sky was extremely beautiful, the place crowded and yes, every other person like me wanted to click the best picture of the rising sun....

Then it turned a little dark...

Finally! Mesmerized by the beauty of nature...

Then we took a round of the place and clicked clicked and clicked more ;)

Sometimes it is okay to break some rules..

As I look at the peak of the mountain..I'm lost ...

As we came down, we were surprised..we hadn't seen any of this on our way up..yeah it was too dark!

It is FUN!

Nandi hills: 60kms from Bangalore

How to reach: Bikes,cars and taxis are the best option

What is it: Well, it is a temple but it is more famous for the surreal beauty.

Leave at around 2-2:30am and you might reach there on time, do check the time of sunrise though!

Where did you go last time to have some fun?

Don't sugar coat; sugar!

Managing your diabetes is not science, it's an art!

There was a time when I used to walk 120 minutes daily! Now it is come down to as low as 15 minutes per day. I wonder how much do we walk. If we had a choice will we walk at all? Who knows!!

Our lifestyle is leading us to many and more diseases every day. Let’s talk about the most common of them: Diabetes!

I just took a 6 seconds test and realised I’m at a very low risk of diabetes. 

About the 6 seconds test:

Janacare, are building an online diabetes prevention program (called the Habits Program) to enable pre-diabetics achieve healthier lifestyle habits and avoid full-blown type II diabetes.

As part of this effort, photokatha (@photokatha) is conducting an online experiment called ”Sugarscore“ to understand India’s Diabetes risk. Sugarscore is a six second survey that will help you understand your risk for Diabetes. The user basically goes to www.sugarscore.in  and quickly answers five questions (age, gender, waist size, physical activity levels and family history of diabetes) to get his or her Sugarscore.

Take this survey>> @ http://www.sugarscore.in

At the end of six seconds, you have to leave your mail address (check the image) to be eligible to win one of the cool goodies every week.

#tag: #Sugarscoreofindia

Did you know: 

• Diabetes kills one person every 8 second!
• Excess weight is the single biggest risk for developing diabetes.
• 150 minutes of brisk physical activity per week can reduce Type 2 Diabetes risk significantly

Bangalore (or any other city) for women

It is always great to see that people come up with initiatives for building a safer city for women.

Flash news:

Today I read that now Khap won’t allow jeans and t-shirts for girls, huh nothing new isn’t it. After all they are the people who can justify rape too!

The Sad Truth:

While I was growing up I was told to be different. Different than my brother. I was suppose to be home early. This concept was very acceptable and seemed ‘okay’. Today as I look back I see the problem lies right there. We as women are TOLD that we can or cannot do certain things and when we do otherwise any outcome is something we have called upon us by our actions!

From Porbandar to Rajkot to Ahmedabad to Mysore to Bangalore:

Nothing, means nothing is different. Same set of eve-teasers, same abusing guys in nooks and corners and well same attitude. I have been in trouble a couple of times here in Bangalore just the way I was in Rajkot.

Here are the links to the incidents Bus trouble, On the wayback home.

Bangalore for women:

Yes! I would say it is ‘comparatively’ safer to say ummm.. Delhi! But safety on comparative terms isn’t effective way of measurement, is it?

What we need?

We need ‘men’ to understand the value of women! (now that is generic and far from possible in many ways)

All the guys who are up for the cause are in some way better than the ones who are not. But everyone is biased in some way or the other. Protection is women has become a bigger point while taking ‘revenge’ (I mean literally) from the culprit isn’t that important, nor is teaching lesson or well STOPPING it.

I Pray For A Better & Safer City To Live

For That I Would Give Whatever I can Give!

Cheers!

Twitterverse – because everyone has a need to be needed

Every living soul has a need to be needed.

I have been on twitter for a year now. Out of 2546 tweeps who follow me and 1749 I follow I have seen one thing in common. “Need”

If you say I don’t need to be on twitter, I’m on it just like that. I’m sorry. Probably you are mistaken.

Twitter is fun! I have found my family here.

@Arpitaappu @VishalSatani @_Sea_Hawk@iA_Myth @In_theBRAT @krishnanpc @twitbandana  is my twitter family since a year now!

Being away from home, may be I can’t call my parents for help but I’m sure these (@gupshupblog too) guys would help me anytime I need.

Even though they are far (@VishalSatani @_Sea_Hawk @krishnanpc @twitbandana  @devoirtech @Sheer_khurma ) I know they will be there to support me.

Then there are these people I knew for quite a long time and now twitter is our best mode of communication. (@HTravadi @nhmerchant)

Apart from these I also follow some biggies J (@gupshupblog is also a biggie J )

I have a #chai cheers group which shares my interest with tea and then there are these #TwitterBrothers  #TwitterSisters who happily call me didi/sis!

I went through a rough patch, a really really rough patch and all these (including @casanovacupid) helped me through it.

All I want to say is I love twitter and for those who do not understand it I’m sorry you might never, till you don’t use it the right way and understand the importance of relations you build right there!

I might have missed many handles here (#TeamPositive @Gods_Evangelos #TeamFafda and many more) but the fact is that I can go on and on and I tell you, it is the NEED to be needed and NEED to fulfill someone’s need that bounds us.

I might not interact with all those 2K friends but I know I’m one tweet away from finding help and one request for rt away for getting more help.

Tweet Tweet! Social media has allowed us to touch new horizons and make friends without borders. It has made us realize that you don’t have to meet someone to fall in love, to be a friend or to understand, support and show affection.

(Not to mention my twitter addiction is the reason I’ve got my job @mHealthTips!!)

Remember this quote:

“Twitter provides us with a wonderful platform to discuss/confront societal problems. We trend Justin Bieber instead.” 
― Lauren Leto

Cheers to beautiful life!

Cheers to Twitter! 

Coffee-voffee-te-Date-shate

I am the kind of person who does not have problems with caffeine; I have a problem without caffeine J  let’s face it; the world is divided into three type of people: the coffee lovers, the tea lovers and the mixed category who aren't decisive enough. Tea can make you feel good in the morning or at any point of time but it is not the conversation starter. Well, no one has ever asked me for a tea date yet. But coffee is the conversations starter, an ideal way to meet people and sometimes it also plays the role of Cupid.

I remember how my first date came to me and asked "Would you like to have coffee with me?” My first thought was well at least it is not in a dark theater where I cannot control things and I would be surrounded by people. I felt it was safe to say yes (yes, at that time safety mattered, because I didn't know him well). It is very comfortable to be out in open place in presence of others with mind and body feeling safe and hoping for some wonderful conversation can take us to the next level. This is how things start or say this is the easiest way to start the things. There is nothing like getting to know one another while sipping coffee and enjoying the presence of one another forgetting about the surrounding if things go well and looking and enjoying the surrounding if the things go dull. That is why someone came up with that awesome tag line "A lot can happen over a coffee", intelligent, smart and sexy all at a time.

When you sit and talk and sip your coffee it is never about the taste of that coffee but the richness of the conversation which makes you fall in love with coffee, it forces you to have coffee time and again and many times with the same person.

“The awesomeness of the conversation is inversely proportional to the amount of coffee in your cup.” ~ Sam

I have seen friends or group of people hanging out at coffee houses. I have also seen people having business meetings and interviews over coffee but what excites me the most is to see the making of a new love story, the lethal chemical combination happening over a cup of coffee. Maybe this is not how love flourishes and how relationships take shape but for sure this how they can start.

Coffee and conversations will always be timeless because they are meant to be. 

#Coffee Cheers!!

How to deal with break-up!

It’s Funny how someone can break your heart, yet you still love them with all your pieces <3

Break-ups aren’t simple, easy or digestible for any of us. Not going into details of my experience let’s understand what is the easy way to deal with it.

You were together and so love, affection and attachment- all this is natural. But when you break-up pain and anger become dominant. These feelings don’t have to be controlled but need a better mode of expression.

Burn, throw and delete

You might think this is childish but it is the best thing to do. Delete the mails, burn the letters and those little notes and give away/throw away those gifts. This might sound harsh but do it anyways.

Unfriend, unfollow and block

You might be okay to see them later but not now. Now you need detachment. Social media detachment is super important because you don’t need to stay ‘updated’ anymore. It is best to block all their info for a while (atleast).

Read, party and enjoy your ‘Freedom’

Remember how you used to crib that you don’t get much time for yourself. Now there is surely and empty slot you can utilize for yourself. So why not! Go for it, and enjoy your freedom.

Sulking is a no-no

This is life and whatever happens happens. There isn't any point in sitting and sulking, crying, sobbing, shouting, feeling guilty ah..all those negative feelings. Go out with friends, meditate, exercise and #BeBetter

A little pool of tears and ah why did I love too much is okay

Yeah, I mean you cannot be totally ‘normal’, after all this is not how you imagined it would be. Be sad for a while and cry a little if you want.

And when nothing works…

Punch them on face and get some ice-cream

No! Would you do that? If it makes you feel good you should do that. Then again it is your choice, but I’ll love to know.. would you do that??!!

Break-ups aren’t easy but life moves on and it is better to look forward then to look back and cry J

When the past calls, let it go to the voice mail. It anyways doesn't have anything new to say.

Remember two things:

“You need to kiss thousand frogs to find a prince!”

And

“When the time is right, the right things just happen.”

Perfect song to end this:

Tweet it right baby!

There is a way of using twitter effectively than just tweeting random stuff! Read on to know more..

I love twitterverse (Check out the pic at the end and you'll know) and there is a reason to it. If you have read my 5 people who made me love twitter you will understand how without right guidance and communication on twitter either you end up quitting twiiter or use it in totally wrong way.

Life in twitterverse

5 important things about twitter:

Hey I just followed you and this is crazy, here’s my DM reply me may be: Sending a DM right after getting a followback is not a good practice. It is better to have some tweet to tweet talk before opting for DMs.

**Statuary warning: DM after followback can be irritating and can lead to unfollow or block!

Following each other doesn't mean you are friends (read long lost friends): Communication is the key. Following someone doesn't make him/her your friend. It needs “right” kind of communication, sharing, mutual respect and “x-factor” (the friendship might or might not click without any reason) to become friends.

Read my blog mentions: Some relations are just limited to “Read my #newpost” requests. Sharing is good, it is the base of blogging life but just share-my-content or read-my-content requests are irritating and can showcase you in a totally wrong way. It is always good to initiate some conversation too.

It’s not about holding on, it’s about moving on: If someone does not want to communicate, don’t force. You can ask once or may be twice and when it doesn’t work be a grown up and move on. The twitterverse is vast and there are many more twiends still waiting for you to find them J

Your tweet is valuable: Instead of tweeting anything, filling the TL with #Drunkedtweets on weekends and just vending out negative feeling use twitter to share something “Share-worthy”. There is so much of important and really good content out there which can lift your moods, help someone’s business or can do some good, go ahead share that!

So what do you think is important to be a good tweeter? J

Happy tweeting!

Happy blogging!

Cheers to beautiful life J

Turning 25!! Silver jubilee of life ;)

Though turning 24, 25 or 26 is not a big deal because every day of life has to be a celebration. Still, I love this ‘the day’ because well, yeah I arrived at this lovely planet to meet you all on this day J

Here are 25 things about life as I turn 25!

1. “Life is beautiful” – This is my favourite quote and I believe in it.
2. Everything is possible if there are hope and faith.
3. If something doesn't go right even if you have given it your best, it is God’s way of saying, “No, not now!”
4. If you love it, you’ll find a way to do it.
5. Travelling makes you richer at heart.
6. People you meet, people you interact with have an impact on you which is more than one.
7. You won’t be always right. But then no one is.
8. Taking up the challenge to overcome your fear can make you realize that there was no reason to be afraid anyway.
9. Do not suppress yourself; do not try to change, not even in a relationship. Because one day your true self will come out and you will not know what to do.
10. If you think an incident didn't teach you anything, you are wrong. Retrospect!
11. You don’t have to worry about what others think. All you need to understand is how you feel about ‘it’.
12. No one is self-made. People who helped you to be where you are should always be given the credit.
13. Magical things grow out of unlikely beginnings.
14. Everyone feels low at some point. Don’t be afraid of shedding some tears. Remember, bounce back!
15. Follow the ones who inspire and be friends with the one who is positive.
16. If you cannot help someone say goodbye to their negativity, restrain yourself to ‘hi-hello’.
17. Life is a cake-walk for someone, is a myth.
18. If you don’t tell them what you want, they’ll not know.
19. Wasting your time talking about other people, leads to wasting of the amazing ideas which would have come into your mind if you were not gossiping.
20. You are movies you watch, songs you listen, books you read and the food you eat. Almost.
21. Food is an expression of love <3
22. Gratitude is more important than attitude.
23. Life isn't very simple but again you are not supposed to solve the math puzzle at every step.
24. Nothing comes for ‘Free’, never.
25. Things happen when they are least expected.

This is what I've learned and well, there is a lot to learn. I met all of you somewhere somehow in these 25 years and I’m grateful to each one of you J

Yes!! It is time to party Ganagnam Style J

If you are gonna leave a comment please tell me what do you think about me :P

Cheers!!

Love is all you need

I crave a love so deep that the ocean will be jealous ♥

When I hear someone saying this is "true love" I wonder.. "True love" ?? Now, what is true love? Is love true and fake? For me love is love.

Sometime back a friend tweeted "You do not fall in love, you rise in love!"

My instant reaction was "YES" and so I retweeted and replied and hence a little long conversation started.

There is a lot said about love, there are quotes, stories, novels and movies and what not! Still, we have a lot more to say, a lot more to express and a lot more to feel.

Well, when a topic is raised there are arguments and counter-arguments, it is the same with love.

What is love?
The question itself is complicated and then we have come up with yet another concept "True Love"
We also try to classify if love is good or bad.
I feel love cannot be bad, destructive or harmful. It is the combination of other feelings along with love which make it negative. (jealousy, lust etc)



Love to me:

When I get up; when I open my eyes,
My only wish is to see you sleeping beside,
Every day of my life, I want to start with a kiss;
I know that same is your wish,
For the rest of my life having tea in the same mug;
When we depart to meet again a tight hug,
Except you, there are no thoughts at all
Being with you I have realised,
Love is where you can only rise,
When you get drowned in it and let yourself have a free fall.

People might say that love is blind, but I  know love sees and just doesn't mind! ~ Sam


♥♥The love song I am playing on loop♥♥

You're the apple to my pie

You're the straw to my berry

You're the smoke to my high

And you're the one i wanna marry. cuz your the

1 4 me and im the 1 4 you.you take the both of us .We're the perfect 2.

My twitter-sister @arpitaappu also has a little poem about love knocking at her door:  Love Knocked on my Heart

Share your thoughts on love!

Cheers to the beautiful life!

I can really use a wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes In the night sky Are like shooting stars

I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)

A new post after a long time!!

So how have you been?

Lately I find myself using a phrase a lot.. “How I wish”.. Oh yes.. only if wishes came so say.. but they don’t and still we “wish”.. We live by hope and faith and without these two magical words life will lose its meaning! Won’t it?

When you say you wish, think deeper.. do you really? If you do, rise and plan to achieve what you wish for because that is how this “I wish” takes a new shape of “I will” and then “I will” into “I have” J and if you cannot dare to do that quit saying “I wish” because no one on the earth comes turn your wishes into reality J

I stand at the horizon of wordlessness

With a shoe-box full of wishes in words abstract

Feelings I have can’t be expressed

I know not my path but I hope

I know not my path but I have faith

I know not if they will come true but I will work

I know not if I would be through but I know it’s worth

If I don’t work today tomorrow I might regret

Regrets that might be deep, the one’s I won’t ever forget

I have time, it’s not late I know I can shine bright

I will turn my wishes into reality and show how I did the things right!

Till then I have only one thing to say!

"Dear dandelions, eye lashes and shooting stars; please do your job well" J

Don't say "I wish" say "I will" and do it! - Sam

iWish, no there is no app for it you need to do it on your own! - Sam

Some people want it to happen.. Some people wish it would happen..and some make it happen..!!! -  ‏@FunduFundas

One Bad wish for someone costs your thousands Blessings -  ‏@WildOrc14053315

My latest favourite song on wish :)

 Cheers to beautiful life!! 

Smiles..

May your wishes come true! <3
