Well, School's Finally Over! :/

This is to you, Ramjas!

Honestly speaking, we'd not really been hit by the "Omg! School is ending!" fever.
We've seen/heard people crying over the fact that school is over, and we used to mock them.
Uptil our last exam we'd never imagined we'd miss this institution, that we loathed, so much.
And one fine day when our brothers were discussing going to school after the result was out, that is when it dawned upon us, that things are actually going to change a lot after the boards. We don't have to wake up every morning (which we're glad about, btw) and go to this place, where we've been going for the past 14 years. We're not going to meet the same set of people everyday.(Crying was still out of the scene :P but the thought sure was depressing)
That is when it really hit us, that this institution did mean a lot to us. It really has given us some of the best days and people. And it is WAY more than the stupid uniform.
We are so overwhelmed by emotion as we write this an going through a complete nostalgic trip right now.
It has given us so much to cherish, so much to remember, some beautiful, some bitter-sweet, some funny and some are well, just embarrassing, but it sure has give us a million memories.
Every single spot in the school has a vivid and unique memory or incident attached to it. This blog, for example, was planned in the school ground and written every Wednesdays/Thursdays in the mathematics periods (which surely would show, once the result is out. ;_;)
And more than the place it is the people that this place has given to us, that makes it SO special.
We've loved some, loathed some, even hated many, but every single person that we've ever shared a laugh with is an important and unforgettable part of our eventful school life.
It has taught us a lot of lessons, and lessons not only from the books that we've read, but important lessons about life, friendship, love and trust.
It is this school where we've learnt the true meaning of friendship, seen friendships fade, best-friends drifting apart, crushes, love, heartbreaks, cat-fights, gossips(seen and been been part of ;P) seen the pressure of scoring, the pressure of performing and this pressure having its effect on friendships and relationships.
And obviously there are some things that we'll miss more than the rest, which are mostly the things we've gotten habitual to in the past two years.
And two of the best things we've got in these two years are each other and this blog. :')

No matter how many times we've cursed our school, we still love it, and hell yeah we'll miss it, we'll miss it so fucking much!

Are You Still Looking For Your "Gentleman" ?

Hey Readers!

We’re back with a new post! Did you miss us? We know you did! :P

So here it goes.

 If you tag somebody as a “Gentleman” on the basis of his desire for intimacy without an intention of marriage, we have bad news for you. Stop reading; stop right here because what is going to follow is a complete bashing session of people like you. We have come across so many of the “Mai toh shaadi se pehle haath ni lagane dungi” types. Like what century are you exactly living in?

We hear girls say “ekdum gentleman-sa hoga mera boyfriend”, what do you even mean by that? How does his desire to get intimate make him any less of a gentleman? Please be kind enough to name the person who makes this definition of the ‘Gentleman’.  

And there are girls who have some entirely ridiculous parameters to call a guy a ‘Gentleman’. A guy who pays the bill at the end of a date might not be the ‘Gentleman’ you are so eager to find. Of course holding doors, chairs, carrying shopping bags is sweet & considerate. But all this may not necessarily mean your guy is a gentleman! And I could pretty much do all this on my own too.

Call a guy a Gentleman when he respects your opinion, tries his best to understand you and your situation, embraces your imperfections and flaws, and does not live with the motive of manipulating you and your individuality, and not because he agrees not to kiss you before marriage.

And we are in no way supporting guys or should we say assholes that try to push their girl too far and threaten to leave them if they do not allow them to get physical. We are not suggesting that you should rush into intimacy and physical relationships, but spare us the “shaadi” bullshit for heavens’ sake! Go ahead and judge him if he tries to force you into things against your own wishes.

All we are suggesting is let your relationship grow the way it is supposed to be, let it come to you naturally, move to the next level when you both are ready for it and most importantly are comfortable with it.

To all the guys reading the blog, thank us later!

And this is all for now, enough of the relationship advice!
