HDFC LIFE

In association with - http://www.hdfclife.com/

What makes a house a home, it is the family of course! It might sound cliché but whatever or rather whoever I am today is only because of my family. They have taught me how to live, how to grow and how to become self- reliant.

The person who has taught me to grow and become a better, more self- reliant person in the true sense would be my sister. Well to brief you guys up I am the youngest in my family. So obviously pampering and extra care comes naturally. Everyone in the family is very protective about me. Its love they say, well I too agree. I am not like those nasty kids who would call my family’s love a torture or any sort of restriction because I know of how much they love me and care for me. Yes, I too love them equally or maybe more.

Okay so why do I say that it is my sister who has taught me how to grow and become a better, more self- reliant person is because she is the one who has been with me through my thick and thin. She has not only been like a sister to me but more like a friend. The best part about her is that she understands when I need her to be around me and when I need that space. If I need her to be with me, she would leave all her work and ensure that I have her and if I want to go in that DND (Do Not Disturb Me) zone, she won’t intervene my privacy. I sometimes wonder how is she so perfect!
She is just perfect, you know! She gets me all the latest clothes only so that I too can be fashion forward. She takes me to the best of the restaurants. She makes me do craziest of things and gives me the liberty to do what I want. If I ever happen to come home late then it is she who would ensure that Mom doesn’t lose her calm. She knows me better than anybody else.

She not only helps with my personal issues but she very well understands or at least pretends to understand my study related struggle (well, struggle is the only word that I can think of right now with my exams being just round the corner).

So my sister has helped me become a better person by always being with me, by always guiding and supporting me and also by helping me discriminate between what is right and wrong. She is my Fashion Advisor, My Friend, My Partner in Crime, My Mentor or simply put MY EVERYTHING.

I am so going to make her read this post, who knows she might just decide to take me shopping (I need new shoes anyway :P) Well thanks sister for guiding me and encouraging me to become a better, more self- reliant person.

HAPPY HAIR?

Hair care, hair spa, best shampoo and the best conditioner, did it all? Still no improvement in your hair condition?
Well then we are in the same boat my fiend! I have done it all, like literally all of it. From using the best of the shampoos, to spending hours at the salon, I have tried it all but no my hair just refuses to be nice. I wait for that day when I can upload a picture of mine on Instagram with #Goodhairday, when will that day come oh lord?

So telling you in detail about how the state of my hair state actually is:
It is very dull, so dull that despite putting a full bottle of serum on my hair there will be no shine, just imagine!
Rough hair and split-ends are every girls dilemma. I am no exception, my hair is rough and I too am fighting split-ends.
But well this is not as severe as the frizziness in my hair is. My hair is extremely frizzy. Just recently I got my hair straightened for my brother's sangeet from a salon and believe me it didn't even stay for an hour. I had to go with my usual frizzy and unmanageable hair for such a close family function, how worse could this get? So yes, the biggest hair challenge that I currently am facing is frizzy and dry hair.
Well hair fall was an issue until I started taking my Mother's advise seriously and started doing champi (oil massage).

Frizzy hair - Check!
Rough hair- Check!
Dull hair- Check!
Split-ends- There!
Unmanageable hair- Yes, Check!
Happy Hair? - Well, no!

I can take this no more. I am going to take the happy hair challenge and soon going to eliminate those hair problems from my checklist and it is Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition that will help me win this, Garnier will take care I am sure :)

I am ready for the #HappyHairChallenge, are you?

QUIKR NXT

Quikr has changed the way of buying and selling. It has not only entered the minds of the young but very prominently it has changed the age old mind-set. It is not just famous or used among the youngsters but everybody is familiar with how it works and very well understands why it is better to sell on Quikr and not to any local scrap dealer. Not just selling but buying is also very convenient with Quikr. Now Quikr has come out with Quikr NXT- a latest feature which allows buyers and sellers to connect with each other over chat.

If you are wondering and are sceptical about its use, let me tell you how it works and how this feature is better than having to call, message, whatsapp, mail or viber.

• With the latest feature which allows the buyer and seller to chat with each other, one can save a lot on their mobile bill. Well yes, it pretty much saves that cost. I remember having put up an Ad for selling my old tablet on Quikr. The price I quoted for it was INR 4000 but in the end what I got was INR 3700. So many prospective buyers gave calls and to follow up I too had to make those calls and thus incur this cost. However with this latest feature wherein you can chat with your buyer or seller there will be no such additional cost. (Wondering why didn’t this feature come earlier L)

• Also the major benefit of this new feature of being able to chat is that you can preserve the chat history. It is very important to have all in writing, isn’t that why we have those contracts and all of that? So when one purchases or sells something online, it is equally important to have the final deal in writing be it in form of a chat it is still better than an oral one over a call.

•  What I like about Quikr NXT is that it helps protect the privacy of both the buyer and seller. Well today the growing online business has well made a mark in the field of commerce but with it, it has given birth to a lot of stalkers. So with this feature of chatting on Quikr one need not reveal their mobile numbers and then block those who just messaged on whatsapp because they had nothing better to do. Herein it’s going to strictly be business, how you would like it to be. Finalize the deal over a chat on Quikr and then go about the delivering, etc.

•  This feature also confines the buying and selling to just Quikr. Not always can you talk about the sale of your old sofa. It wouldn’t be the best time to entertain such phone calls or the prospective buyers during meetings or when you are along with your friends. So Quikr very well understands that and thus this new feature.

Quikr NXT has made buying and selling online easier and more hassle free.
