Yes, ofcourse, it won’t always be hilarious, punctuations also have the potential to be tragic.

I mean what if you said: “I like cooking dogs and kids”.
Instead of “I like cooking, dogs and kids”. ( Yup just a single comma did it all).

Now, let’s see some examples on how hilarious the confusion in our life would be without punctuations.

1. How a single comma can save lives.

Hilarious one: Time to eat children.

Correct one: Time to eat, children.

2. Hyphens matters.

Hilarious one: Hot water bottle.

Correct one: Hot-water bottle

3. Apostrophe can make you dinner.

Hilarious one: Eat. You’re dinner.

Correct one: Eat your dinner.

4. Semicolons can save your love.

Hilarious one: I’m sorry I love you.

Correct one: I’m sorry; I love you.

5. A full stop at the wrong time might lead you to embarrassment.

Hilarious one: I don’t think. I’m funny.

Correct one: I don’t think I’m funny.

So, those were some hilarious examples on how confusing our life would be without punctuations. Hope you enjoyed reading them.

Also, since my native language is not English, please do correct me if I have made any mistake.

Also, do tell me your favourite one. I would love to hear about it.

Bye bye till the next time we meet. Till then stay safe, stay happy and ofcourse stay positive.

I hope you enjoy reading this post. Also, don’t forget to share some phrases that you use to people but don’t actually mean. I know there definitely will be some. So, do tell me (I will also try using them).

So, without wasting more time let’s begin.

1. I am very busy right now and will call you few minutes later.

Reality check: I am so freaking tired of listening to your voice. Dude, please give me rest, and don’t dare expect a call from me later.

2. How are you? I missed you so much, dear.

Reality check: I am really fine with or without you. Yeah, my life will really go on without you. That was just a rhetorical thing to say.

3. Good Luck. I really hope the best for you.

Reality check: I am kind of jealous and really hope that you don’t do well.

4. It was so nice to meet you.

Reality Check: I will forget your name the moment you leave. Yes, I will. I really keep meeting random people and really my brain can’t remember any more names.

5. Follow your passion

Reality Check: Oh, please. Just get a 9 to 5 job.

Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoyed reading this post on what people say vs what they actually mean and it bought a little smile on your face. Do tell me if it did.

Trust me once you start researching about things, you may one day discover that your whole life is a lie.

So, here are 5 things that I always thought were true. But, with time I discovered they are not. Maybe you could relate to a few of them. Do tell me in the comments if you did relate to any of them.a

1. Humans come from monkeys

Well, we think that Charles Darwin said that humans come from monkeys. But, the reality is that he never said it directly. In his work “On the origin of species” he stated that monkeys, apes, and humans must have a common ancestor because of our great similarities compared to other species.

2. We have only five senses.

Well, some scientists insist that we have at least 21 senses including balance, pain, and temperature.

3. If you eat your nails a tree will grow inside your stomach.

I think most have us have heard this lie by our parents a million times during our childhood whenever we used to chew our nails, so that we stop our bad habit of eating nails.

4. Complan increases height.

No, No, No it doesn’t. But you can still drink it if plain milk sounds boring to you.

5. Bulls hate red.

Hmmm, ever ran away from a Bull because you were wearing red? Well, I did many times. But, Bulls are actually color blind. It’s not the color red. They actually perceive the motions of bullfighters cloth as a threat.

Well, those were the 5 lies that I grew up believing are true. I hope you could relate to some of them. Also, if there are any more lies that you always thought are true until now, do share them with me.

Bye, bye till the next time. Stay safe, stay happy, and stay positive.

The post 5 lies I grew up believing are true appeared first on Interesting Reads.

So many friendships, so many relationships ended because one person thought that the other person is fake.

Fake. We all hate fakeness. We all hate hate fake people. But, is anyone really real? Are we real? Are we all authentic?

Aren’t we all fake?
We all have a mask that we wear. And we wear it every single day.

Well, if it isn’t clear what does wearing a mask means. Then let me put it this way:
Ever been in a relationship and said you were single to all you close one’s? Well, my friend that’s wearing a mask. Ever loved green vegetables more than junk food and denied it? Well, my friend it’s wearing a mask. Ever wanted to help a person who was being bullied by everyone but you can’t instead you became a part of that bully gang. Then my dear friend it’s again wearing a mask.

Ever enjoyed doing something very much but can’t enjoy in front of others. Then that’s wearing a mask.

Well, I hope that now you got the idea of what wearing a mask means.
Well, we think that the mask we are wearing is in front of others. But the harsh truth is that we are what we impersonate.

Everyone of us have heard “Be Yourself”. But what does being yourself means? Do we really try to be ourselves or do we try to be the person that the society thinks is authentic.

I think we try to be a person according to the standards set by the society. Very few of us really know who we really are.

The irony here is that we are our true selves when we wear a mask. Ok, ok let me help you understanding this. Just think that you are with a full crowd of people, then you will behave a particular way. But if everyone is wearing a mask and you are free to do whatever you want then you will be you true selves.

Well, now again let me ask you Are we really what we think ourselves to be?

Well, sometimes it may be important to wear a mask in the same way as sometimes it’s important to tell someone a lie to protect them from the truth. But let’s stop wearing our masks for so long that even we forget who we really are.

Thank you for visiting Interesting Reads. Do tell me your thoughts in the comments below. I would love to read them.

The post Are we really what we think ourselves to be? appeared first on Interesting Reads.

1. When your phone rings:

**thoughts** : Pleaseeee just stop ringing yourself. I just don’t want to pick you up. Please, please just stop ringing.

1.1 When the phone stops ringing itself
**thoughts** Phew!! Such a relief.
Few seconds later:
Should I call back? Or should I not? If I don’t call back, will it be rude? But, if I call back what would I say…oh god what to do!!

2. When you have to talk/ask something from an unknown person:

**thoughts**: Should I go or should not not? I wish they come to me and then I could ask them what I needed to ask.
*Infinite hours later**
Still thinking of the ways you could do your thing without asking the other person. And framing your sentences in your mind in case you will have to talk to them.

3. When your school/college is having extempore or any assignment where you have to speak:

**thoughts**: You wish this day has never existed and want this assignment to be replaced with any written one.

4. When you are at a party.

**thoughts**: Oh god! What do I do to look occupied. Should I scroll through my phone? Ummm..yes I should do it. I will look occupied like this and I won’t have to talk to anybody. Where has my only friend with whom I can talk has gone. When will this party be over.
It’s been so long, I really need to have some alone time so that I can recharge my battery.

5. You have an endless conversation going on with you in your mind.
And when someone says that you don’t talk too much:

**thoughts**: Hey, I have been talking whole day.
**Few moments later**: But, I haven’t talked to any human being. Oops,maybe it was me talking to myself.
Huhh..never mind. I love talking to myself.

Hope you enjoyed reading the thoughts an introvert have while doing things. Don’t forget to share this post with your introverted friends.

The post Thoughts of An Introvert while doing things appeared first on Interesting Reads.

1. Don’t take anything for granted. (Yes, this is the most important life lesson I have learned till now.)

I know it sounds very cliché but it is true. Respect what you have at present because you may lose it the very next moment.
Appreciate your parents, your friends, your relatives and everyone because nobody stays in your life forever. Be
happy, it’s free.Try to appreciate the little things in life because you will never know when they will turn into only memories.

2. Your health comes first.

There are so many times when we give importance to our work or studies and less attention to our health. We create so much pressure on ourselves and want to achieve so much in life that sometimes we forget to appreciate this beautiful gift called life. It’s important to have your priorities straight and your own health should always be your first priority.

3. Patience is a virtue.

Me being an extremely impatient person can very well tell you that patience is really a virtue. The more impatient you are the more are the more chances that you will spoil every work you do.

4. Nobody really cares about you except your parents.

I know it is very heart breaking to know this but nothing can be more true than this. Only your parents genuinely cares about you and nobody else. No matter how close the other person is to you. The real love always comes through parents.

And one more thing. I hate to admit it but your parents are always right. They may not be as technology savvy as you are but they have seen life in a far better way than you have. Trust them.

5. It doesn’t hurts to be kind.



Sometimes we are so busy in our lives that we often take out our frustation on others. But you will be amazed to know that even if you send a single message to someone, reading which they can feel happy I can’t tell you how grateful you will feel. It really never hurts to be kind.

Thank you so much for reading. Those were some of the life lessons I have learned.I would love to know the lessons you have learned. So, please do share them with me.

So, because of this whole quarantine thing many of us have to work from our homes while most of us think that working from home can be very relaxing but reality it is not.

Here I am sharing with you some expectations vs reality while working from our homes which I think most of you would relate to.

1. Expectations: You will get to sleep till late in the morning as no one to see.

Reality: You have to be on exact office time because if you are late you will not have a valid reason to explain ( you are late because of the traffic won’t work while you are at home).

2. Expectations: You can just Netflix and chill.

Reality: Unfortunately,you can’t because sadly you have to save your whole internet for your work.

3. Expectations: You think you can sleep easily whenever you want as there is no one to monitor you.

Reality: Even if you try to sleep your mind is always thinking that you can get a call from your manager or colleagues anytime.

4. Expectations: You think you can learn a new hobby and keep posting it’s status.

Reality: The moment you post your status and you forget to remove your manager from your status privacy, the next thing you know is getting a call from him knowing your work status.

5. Expectations: You can work in a comfortable environment while being at home.

Reality: Whenever you try to work dedicately you get someone from your family definitely distracting you.

So, one weekend me and my friends thought to have some fun time at Connaught Place, Delhi.

But, before sharing my experience just a friendly advice to everyone. Whenever you visit Delhi do come to Connaught Place because I know you’ll love it. Without wasting much of your time let me begin sharing my experience on the trip to Connaught Place.

The nearest metro station to C.P is Rajiv Chowk. The station is underground and interchange station for blue line and yellow line. And, C.P is at a walking distance from Rajiv chowk metro station.

And now let’s come to the interesting part:

1. First we went to Saravan Bhawan. Because, It is famous for it’s South Indian food and I love Dosa. And believe me the food there was amazing .So,We ordered:

a. Masala dosa

b. Onion Uthappams

c. And an onion rawa dosa

2. After that we did some shopping at Janpath market. There we ended up buying some very nice winter clothes at very reasonable price.

3. Till then again we became hungry. So, we decided to go to “Attitude, Kitchen and Bar”. And we were lucky enough as there was live show also going on there. So there we ate

a. Dry chilli paneer and

b. Honey chilli potato

And enjoyed the live show to the fullest.

After that we became so tired that we decided to go back to our places. And on our way we saw this amazing car:

After 15 minutes of continuously admiring this car we got back to our places. So, it was a very short,sweet and a bit tiring trip.

If you have ever been to Cannaught Place,Delhi do tell me your experience. I would love to know.

Now, let’s start how I got inspired to do doodling and was I happy with the end result?

Where I got my inspiration from?

So, as you might now have understood that I got inspired from Dr.Namrata.
Her doodle posts made me remember of my childhood days, when I also used to love drawing and when I saw her post I was inspired to try doing some doodling myself.

When did I got time to doodle

So, few days ago while in the office and not being able to do the work assigned to me I saw the perfect opportunity to draw. So, like a warrior I took out my pen and notepad and then started “searching on google what to doodle” .

Where are found doodle to replicate

So I googled “easy doodle drawings”
Because, it’s been years since I have drawn something so I thought starting with something extremely easy should help.So,I choose the easiest one out of those easy doodle’s on google .

Let’s see how the process went

First, I chose an easy doodle image.

The image above is the original doodle.

And then it was my turn to reciprocate it.

This image above is my version of the doodle.

My views on my doodle

I know, I know I screwed it and sorry for using two colour pens but my black pen refill dried and my colleague’s as usual proved to be of no help.

Do tell me how you liked my doodle. And to see some fab doodle I am sharing the link of Dr Namrata’s blog, she makes amazing doodle, do check them out: http://penofhearts.com
