Children of the same womb but divided by States- Time to change

Just yesterday I landed upon an article on Time Of India website mentioning a claim by the Chief minister of Bihar, Nitish Kumar which clearly comes off as a political gimmick to garner votes. I didn't take that article too serious and scrolled down the page to see the comments made by the masses on that article. To my horror, what I came across stunned me; People were disgracing Biharis and talked about throwing them out of their respective states! What made it worse was it were 'educated' people who talked such rubbish.  As mentioned in the constitution of India; India is a secular country granting the freedom of movement to it's citizens. But the way in which my country fellows were bad mouthing their own countrymen made me furious. Racism prevailing towards Indians in another nation can be understood, however, racism amongst Indians itself is a fact which actually makes me ashamed of my country and that too just because of some stupid politician's politic

Well, being sorry is a thing I have been doing since, yesterday. I had encountered some internet connectivity errors in past days. I desperately wanted to post about my extremely fabulous day in South Mumbai, 9th March but this silly problem played a spoil-sport. Also, I am feeling terribly uninspired!

I am doing nothing these days except watching a lot of soap operas on television! This is something I have always refrained doing (I even hate watching television in the first place) but now, I can't think of a better alternative to kill my time. Yep, my bad inte

Confession time

You can't blame me, I already told you the reason for my absence beforehand. It's not that I don't wish to write, they say "Writing, scribbling or venting out thoughts enriches talent" well I'm a firm believer of this idiom. Leaving apology stuff aside, I wish to draw attention to a thing which people generally render unnecessary: 'company of thyself'. Yeah if you remember, things were working out pretty bad with me, what I had joyfully asked from God had turned into a reason of my agony. Now I have soared above that situation and actually discovered that it wasn't my college which had driven me into making such confession, it was the friends group I had fallen into! They rightly say; Your friends character affects you. Hence, falling into the company of people who basically didn't seemed to bother about anything had affected me; A person housing a wandering spirit within herself snapped all her interest just because the environment wasn't
