It’s never enough…

“Nothing will knock you down quicker than offering the best of yourself to someone and it still not being good enough.” – M.W Poetry.

It’s never enough how much you do for others; they will still want more. They will still complain about how ungrateful you are and not enough. In this world, you need to understand that it’s never enough to impress people; if they have already made up their minds about you, they will never see your effort, no matter what you do. So learn to live for yourself, the society will never be happy, no matter what. The courage to stand up for yourself and do whatever you want doesn’t come easily. However, if you want to survive living in this world and want to create a place for yourself, then you need to focus on yourself. You only work for yourself, not for others. This is your life, so live it however you want should be your motto. You will get tired of impressing others, and amidst that, you will forget how to live for yourself. That is why you do whatever you want, regardless of what others say. It’s definitely not easy; however, you only live once, and this is your life, and you should always remember that for yourself and your future, you need to become selfish. The world will not even look in your direction when it’s their time, so just do it for yourself. I have learned that no matter how much you do, it is never enough. So it’s better to just focus on yourself and believe in yourself. Do whatever you want and don’t tell anyone about it. No one deserves to know what you are doing and why you are doing it. You should know that in this world, you are your only true self. Everyone else is just there to take advantage of you. Selfish people don’t have the guts to appreciate you when they see you are going ahead of them; they will demotivate you and show you it’s never enough, so leave those people behind and just trust yourself. You live for yourself only, and do whatever you want to do for yourself; you are what matters.

It sucks, doesn’t it? feeling like you’re not good enough, no matter how hard you try.

I’m trying…

Nothing hurts more than trying your absolute best and still not being good enough.

When life gets overwhelming, I always question myself about what I am even doing. It’s not working, no matter how hard I try; I always lack somewhere. Why is it just me? Why? This question haunts me the most, and the answer to it is impossible to find. I think no matter how good you are doing, there is always a time in life when life feels so heavy and you are standing on the edge, not knowing what to do next. Recently, I have been too busy with life, a lot of things to do for my future and amidst that, I am also busy thinking, will it work out for me? If it didn’t, what am I going to do? It is not easy to choose a path, but it is also harder to leave the chosen path and start over again. I think no one gives us credit for how much we are trying, everyone wants to live a good life, wants to earn money, and fulfil their wants; however, it is not as easy as it seems. It takes a lot of effort, time, and battles to get there, but people don’t understand that. If we fail at something, they will say. Why can’t you do it? It was so easy. However, I have always said that no one knows how much you struggle, so saying is easy, but only you know how much you have tried and are trying. I’m trying, I really am. However, everyone only wants to see the result, and that too good. However, what about me trying, the efforts I am putting in, why is it not okay to fail sometimes, why is it not okay to try multiple times? Just why? Everyone is trying their best, and it’s okay to be slow, take time, and be on the path, confused. That doesn’t make you a failure or someone who is not trying. I’m trying is the first step towards your biggest achievement. No matter what others say, you are doing your very best. Keep it up!

I’m trying my best, I really am

Review: ‘Put Your Head On My Shoulder’ C-drama (2019)

The craze this Chinese drama had in 2019 was insane. I think it became the first C-drama for a lot of people, as it was dubbed in many languages too. The story follows Situ Mo, an accounting major on the verge of graduation, who is struggling with her uncertain future. Amidst this, she unexpectedly meets a physics genius, Gu Weiyi, who constantly clashes with her. However, neither of them knew it was just the start of their unexpectedly blooming love story.

Let’s start with the character of Situ Mo; she is a relatable character. We see how she has planned everything she wanted; however, as she reaches there, nothing feels right, and I think most of us relate to this so much. Apart from this, she is funny as hell, because what is she even doing half of the time, just getting herself in embarrassing situations, which makes her more relatable. Her character is dynamic as we see so many different shades of life through her as she navigates it, and we come to realise that we might also be sharing the same journey.

Then we have the male character, a typical Chinese male lead, who is cold-hearted, a genius, loves to be alone and doesn’t like the female lead. One of the things that I really adore about Chinese dramas is how the female lead comes and makes everything so chaotic for the male lead. That’s how I would describe their relationship. Gu Weiyi is funny too when he doesn’t know how to act even in normal situations, as he is like a person who follows the same schedule every day. I absolutely loved seeing him being so frustrated and clueless when Situ Mo came to live with him. He is actually a really good male lead.

Now, talking about chemistry, it’s beautiful. Their height difference OMG, he sits on his knees, then too, he towers over her, which makes their hug more beautiful. He legit confesses his love to her through physics language, I think it’s one of the funniest scenes in the drama, and then she gets upset as to why he is giving her his physics notes, and his dumbfounded face will forever be engraved in my mind. They are truly a chaotic couple who never fail to make me laugh. Their love story is so pure, and their realisation that they are in love was so beautiful to watch.

The plot has amazing tropes like enemies to lovers and housemates, actually, it’s unexpected for them and the audience. Basically, both of their moms are friends with each other and decide to let them live together without telling them. But in reality, just like us, the moms also wanted them to be together. The plot is very straightforward and simple; it actually manages to bring laughter and a smile to my face.

The side characters are also amazing, and the cinematography is top-notch. The drama has a cool and pleasant vibe, which makes everything better. The ending is super cute and lovable.

I highly recommend this drama.

There is no hero in the world except…

“Who cares, just do it.”

There is no hero in the world except yourself. It is very common for everyone to love a hero; however, if you want to become a hero in your life, you need to be a villain in everyone’s life because that’s how it works. I feel like the world makes us feel bad if we are selfish for ourselves, our needs and the future we want. If people like what you’re doing, they will be delighted, but maybe that’s not what you want. Maybe you want something else, and if the world doesn’t like it, they will show you as the villain. I still don’t understand why people can’t mind their own business. It’s the 21st century, people need to grow up. I am someone who wants to stay away from people’s business as much as possible because I am too busy to deal with my own. If you want to become the hero of your life, then you will most definitely become someone else’s villain, and that’s okay. We are in this world to live our lives, not to care what others think. If we start caring about what others think, then we will become villains in our story. But if you need to become a villain in others’ eyes at the cost of your happiness, do it because others won’t think twice before throwing you in the puddle. Be the hero of your own life, do whatever brings you happiness. I think living with the motto of creating the future for yourself, irrespective of what others say, is one of the strongest things a person can do for themselves. If you want to do it, just do it, the world is always going to say. It’s your life, and whatever you want, you need to earn that by being the hero, which might make you the villain in others’ eyes, but who cares? You only live once, and leave the people who make you feel that you are the villain in your own life. What matters to you, what makes sense to you, doesn’t mean it should make sense to the world. You need to be happy; that’s all that matters, and believe me, it’s going to be okay because there is no hero in the world except…

Everything is better when you decide you don’t care.

Review: ‘Business Proposal’ K-drama (2022)

“Do you know what my love for you and this credit card have in common? They both have no limit.” – Kang Tae-moo to Shin Ha-ri.

If you want to watch something chill with both the main characters being unserious, then please watch Business Proposal. This 2022 drama really hooked people up with binge-watch entertainment as it’s chill and stressful to watch. This drama has spawned numerous memes that are still fondly remembered by the K-drama community. The drama follows the story of Shin Ha-ri, who, in place of her friend, goes on a blind date and acts like a spoiled brat so that the blind date will go downhill. However, the person she went on a blind date with actually liked her and wants to marry her. Later, Shin Ha-ri finds out that the person she went on a blind date with is her boss, Kang Tae-moo.

Let’s start with Shin Ha-ri, she is always surrounded by trouble, the scene of the flying slipper, OMG I was laughing so badly because this is the least one could expect to meet someone, especially the president of the company. The girl, after going on a date, was living a stressful life because her boss, who knows nothing, wants to marry her, and that is stressing her out. I like that she was also somewhat relatable with the problems in her life. No matter what she does, people will always leave her out, and it was so relatable to watch. She is so funny, especially her expression, which added more comedy to the drama.

Kang Tae-moo, at first, you will think he is so serious until he opens his mouth. He is freaking hilarious and didn’t know what to talk about which led him to talk exaggeratedly. The guy is under pressure because his grandfather wants him to settle down, and when he finds the girl he likes, she doesn’t want to marry him, which gives him more stress. The boy is left thinking that a girl doesn’t like him. He is so unserious and I loved it. But definitely a green flag as he always helped her knowingly and unknowingly.

The chemistry is great, especially since both are freaking funny. Another aspect was their understanding that both were always there for each other, which I really liked. I liked how Shin Ha-ri’s craziness is what attracted Kang Tae-moo towards her. A chill couple with a beautiful story. The jealousy scenes are so funny, especially Kang Tae’s expression, which was a cherry on top.

The second lead couple is equally crazy but hot; their chemistry is intense. Cha Sung-hoon and Jin Young-seo are some of the best side couples. Their banter was so entertaining to watch, it was filled with their unserious talks, and I can’t stop laughing about it. Their story is very interesting and chaotic. Cha Sung-hoon is the best character of Business Proposal.

The plot is straight and simple, nothing much, but the vibe is really good and fresh. I think if one wants to watch for the vibe and chaotic moments, then this drama is really good, and it’s short too. The cinematography was top-notch, the OST is one of my fav, and the ending is beautiful.

I highly recommend this drama.

“I have feelings for you. And I won’t give up. If you reject me, I’ll ask you out again and again.” – Kang Tae moo to Shin Ha-ri.

It’s Okay…

It’s okay if all you did today was survive.

It’s okay if days are not going the way you want them to be. It’s okay if things are going great, and something happens, but it does not make you a failure. My life has been on a roll, I’m busy preparing for so many exams that I have a deadline this month which will decide my future, and today I cut my hand so badly that I’m recording to write this blog post. And guess what, my exam is in a week and I have injured my hand, which I’m supposed to write with. I was kind of panicking, but it’s okay, I am fine again. I am doing great, and I will be better very, very soon.  Life is like that, only it will test you at every step, and it comes so suddenly that we don’t know how to deal with it. But again, at this point in my life, where I have seen so much and been an adult for such a long time, I have learned that life works that way; it will test you, but we have to believe in ourselves. Just like happiness, there is sadness, and for the rainbow to be there, the storm has to come. After every difficulty, we definitely get to see the result; we just need to hang in there. I had the habit of always questioning myself if I didn’t accomplish something, I put such pressure on my mind and kept thinking about what went wrong, but later realised nothing was wrong, it’s just a phase of life which will go, I just need to believe in myself that I can do it. If I put pressure on myself and start questioning my existence, that world is going to do the same, and I’m not going to be okay. So let me tell you, it’s okay, you’re doing fine, one setback will not decide your future, but it’s your courage to pass through it that will. So hang in there, do what you love and remember to say this yourself when life gets a little hasty, it’s okay…

You are strong, but you are also tired, and that is okay.

places hold memories

Life is a collection of memories.

I was passing by the places that I used to visit with my Mom, and it felt so nostalgic because of how different I was back then. And the sudden realisation hit me that places never change, they still hold memories; however, what changes are us, the humans. The things and the places we used to look at as a kid and now as an adult are the same, but what changed is us; our interpretation has changed. That’s why memories are so important, they bring us so much peace when we visit places where we have spent such a good time. I never really understood or knew until I visited the place, and then it hit me how much older I have become. The places I once visited with my mom are now places I visit alone, and I’m filled with so many thoughts. And just like that, we grow up, leave the places behind that were once our way to spend time, and now we are looking at places to escape the hectic life of adulthood. What is it like visiting the place after so many years and remembering the life we once lived, and now everything has changed? I think the places we used to visit in childhood will always be precious memories because we remember the phase, the smell, the clothes we were wearing, holding hands with our parents, doing weird poses, exploring everything new, and how our eyes used to go wide with excitement. And now, if we go back to the place we remember our innocence phase and how happy we were with no tension, just excitement to explore the place. When I visited the place a few days ago, I looked like a tourist as my eyes were wide and my heart felt heavy. How the time has changed, and I have grown up to be an adult. That’s how life is, we look back and realise that’s the best time we have spent, and I think that’s the whole point, we should create memories that one day we look back and see how happy we were, and there is no regret left behind of not spending time right. So all the adults out there, this time will not come back again, so make sure you try to enjoy it as much as you can.

and some memories never leave.

And maybe we complicated life too much

“Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.” – Confucius

As an adult, the most important thing that I have realised is that the situation might not be that complicated, but I make it more complicated. I think about it and wonder how I will do it, and every time I am overloaded with work, I get so frustrated that I start questioning my life, but it works out in the end. I handle everything by the end of the day. But that process of overthinking and questioning makes life complicated. In the era of social media, where we get to see people’s personal lives so closely that at one time we even wonder what kind of life they are living and what we are even doing. It is so easy to compare because we can see a huge difference however, I then remember that I have my own life too, which I can make the way I want. The life I want to have, I can have, but I complicate things so much that it makes me frustrated with life. The rule is simple: don’t complicate things in life. You are strong, and just like everything, you are going to be fine. And if it doesn’t work out, it’s okay, one setback doesn’t make you a failure, but it makes you get ready for the upcoming lesson. If something comes up unexpectedly, we always panic and don’t know how to solve it. When things are not going the way we want, when everything feels tough, and when life feels like a burden, we see ourselves break down and do not dare to move on. First of all, it’s okay, everyone feels it, but as we deal with it, we learn to handle those situations, we learn how to manage everything, and I think that’s the whole point. I am speaking from my experience, when we learn how to handle things under pressure, we become experts in dealing with things that life brings to us. You are doing ok, panic is not going to bring you anything, so sit back, relax and understand life is like that, maybe you need some time to figure it out, but you are going to do it exceptionally well. And maybe we complicate life so much that we don’t see how strong we are, and life is all about simple things.

Simplicity.

Never say Never…

Sometimes there is no next time, no second chance, no time out.

Sometimes it is NOW or NEVER.

I will start by saying, take that opportunity, it has come your way, which means you were chosen for it. As an adult, you need to come out of your comfort zone, you can’t hide forever, you need to take that risk, no matter how much you are afraid. At this age, you have to test your ability, and this will happen when you take on the opportunity that scares you. Being an adult is scary; however, it also allows you to explore and find yourself. I really want to see how much I am capable of things, and that will only happen if I take risks, no matter how nerve-wrecking it is. I know the feeling of saying no to something and then regretting it so much and thinking if only I took it, maybe I would have failed, but at least I tried and learned. Taking the opportunity to learn and teach how to do things right and better as we move on in life. Everything is scary at first because you have not tried yet, you won’t know how much you are capable of, how much you can do, unless you try. You have to try and start somewhere to keep going and make the life you’ve always dreamed about. I recently learned how to drive a car, however, I was so afraid at first, even though I can drive well, my confidence was so low. But I know I have to start the car and keep going to actually see my progress. And guess what, I drove so well and now my confidence level has increased because I know what my flaws were, and I worked on them, and now I can control the car. Nobody is perfect, and people we see who are so good at their job started somewhere, started imperfectly, to reach where they are so perfect. No matter what, never say never. Life is all about risk and especially in matters where your whole future lies ahead of you. Taking that opportunity will give you some result, but saying no will never allow you to move ahead, and the result will always be nil. So take the opportunity, I know you have a lot of courage to rule the whole world, so never say never…

You have to fight for what you want.

The chaos of life…

“Life is divine Chaos. It’s messy, and it’s supposed to be that way.” – Keats

I love calmness, but I also adore the chaos of life. When you are walking on the street surrounded by thousands of people and wonder what kind of life they are living and what kind of life you are living, but at the same time, you are in the same place. Life is something; if we look upon it as a queen of mischief, it will throw you down, but like a magic flying carpet, it will catch you. I believe in the chaos of life. I like trying things that seem so out of this world, things that bring drama to my life, because we only live once, and no one knows what will happen next, so why not do dramatic things? I believe that embracing the chaos of life gives you a whole new perspective on it, you find beauty in things that you never even thought about, and you get to know the beauty and the chaos it carries, bringing you the ultimate comfort. All great things are embedded with chaos; chaos is constant in life, but we must find peace within it. Messy things can be beautiful, like abstract painting that might not make sense to a common person, but it looks phenomenal. Maybe the chaos of life will make you go mad, but it’s okay, everyone is a bit mad, so instead burn it, let go and just dive into the chaos life has brought. Maybe this will help you find where you truly belong. Embracing life makes everything so easy, and we actually get to see the beauty of it, but it also comes with a lot of chaos that we need to hug in order to go past it and find the beauty and peace in it. I have heard that to survive, you need to be wild in chasing your dreams, and that will happen when you know how to embrace the chaos of life…

And she embraced the chaos as it painted her life with purpose.
