Weekly Photo Challenge: Together

One door knob cannot be fit on to a door with out it’s pair (especially if it’s like the knobs in the above picture ) They have to be placed TOGETHER. So what do you guys think of it?

Converse: A Youth Symbol

What comes into your mind when you see a symbol consisting of a circular patch, a star in the center and the name ‘Chuck Taylor‘?

Of course, it’s the symbol of Chuck Taylor All-Stars a.k.a Converse shoes.

Their black-and-white shoes have been around since the 1940′s, a few years after the World War II.

Now they aren’t only available in the standard black and white designs but also come in an wide range of colors, patterns and materials.

This makes them much more trendy and fun to wear for today’s youth. Teenagers usually prefer Converse rather than another pair of shoes as they enjoy it’s comfort and they feel that it makes them look cool.

You could say that they feel it’s customized for their age. They feel converse shoes describe their various styles and trends. They feel converse shoes-”Describes ME.”

However, their thoughts are not followed by the older generation. While teens feel converse can be worn everyday and for any occasion, they completely disagree. For example, wearing converse with a dress to dinner or to work is not imaginable.

Some think that converse are expensive and a waste of money, not to mention a few adults also judge Converse by their looks ie. their colors, how dirty they are etc. They prefer heels or slippers when compared with converse.

But whatever they feel, it’s the truth that always prevails, right?? They can’t deny the fact that they are living in the ‘Converse Century.’

So

Dear Adults,

Welcome to the OUR Century.

It’s where CONVERSE SHOES are worn for comfort and style.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Two Subjects

I was just checking my e-mail when I saw one from “The Daily Post”. And when I read about this week’s theme being “Two Subjects”, I thought this picture was the one. The first thing that catches your eye is the bright orange fig. But, if you look closely, you can see that twig next to it is also in focus. So it has 2 subjects…….!!

Drops..

Heyo!! What do you guys think of this picture? I took it right after the sprinklers were shut down, so drops of water had collected on the leaves…!!!

A few of my Favorites….

As the title suggests, these are a few pics taken by me, which are my FAVORITES!!! So you guys tell me, what do you think of them??

Mushrooms!!

Sparkles on water…!!!

My very “QUACKY” model!!

A pair of innocent eyes…..

I didn’t mean to…. :(

My friend and I are currently fighting, so I wrote this poem to tell her how I feel. And she has NOT read it yet! It is titled “I Didn’t Mean To”  because I never meant to make her her feel sad. For some reason though, she is not ready to listen to me. (Sigh..)

I Didn’t Mean To

I was always there for you

and you were always there for me.

But when I met new people,

you left me with no where else to lean.

My new friends were different,

I wanted to know them well.

But in the process I got carried away

and that’s when your smile fell.

Slowly I noticed, 

that something was wrong.

You were more silent around me

and you didn’t laugh at my stupid songs.

When I asked, you said

that you thought I spent more time with THEM

than you.

That’s why you became more distant, 

which I noted was true.

I then realized my mistake

and how precious friendship is

but, I couldn’t leave my other friends either,

So matter still remains as it is.

But please understand, breaking friendship is hard.

I cannot lose them or YOU.

Maybe you now understand how I feel,

and our friendship may renew.

Hope you liked it!!! Please feel free to comment about this poem and some of my other posts too!!!

Fake flowers….

I was thinking about what to post on my blog. And suddenly, I got an idea. Why not a few pictures? So I ended up taking pictures of the flowers around my house out which not even one was a real, live flower. The picture quality is bad because I took these pictures with my iPod camera, but hope you guys still like them!

The different flowers!

Happy New Year!

Hey everyone! Wish you guys a happy new year 2012! I know that it’s a little bit late but I guess it is okay. I’ve been busy a few weeks so as soon as I’m free I’ll post something new up. And sorry, if my last post was a little complex!

Feel the rain on your skin!

I just realized something today.

Life always hits us with many problems and miseries. We usually get distressed over them and just hope to pass them easily and quick. What we don’t realize is that ‘its not the destination but the journey that counts.’ Unknowingly, on the path to success and freedom from the problem we often learn something new. This new knowledge helps us in many ways and will also aid us in facing other problems in the future.

What I learnt today from one movie was entirely different. There were many different aspects from the film which really made me think deeper and better. One was that sometimes, you cover yourself with a shell up to other peoples expectations, while hiding the ‘real you’ underneath. You have to break that shell, letting people know who you really are. Another was that just because you are different , it does not mean that you can’t stand up and let your voice be heard in the crowd. Anything is possible if you believe you can. And the one that inspired me mostly, be true to yourself. If you’re not truthful to yourself and do not have faith that you can do it, any effort and time put is worthless. You have to try for yourself. It’s only YOU that can do it and not anyone else.

I know trying to change yourself after a long time is a really hard task. But if it’s for your own good, isn’t it worth a try?

It’s just like the lines from that song:

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips!

Drench yourself in words unspoken

Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten!!
