Prepare yourself mentally before marriage

Firstly congrats on your wedding,and before starting this I need to tell u all that am not a expert or Councillor am a happily married wife and am sharing my experience here.....  I know most of us have a fear inside before the weeding-so today am giving u some tips to get ready mentally for your weeding......U'll get many article about bridal skincare,makeup,dress what ever u want for weeding- i mean planners, but no one can plan Ur mind/plan u mentally unless if Ur a robot lol:)

So I'll help u today whether,if it a love marriage or arrange marriage u'll have these questions in ur mind...........

How life changes after marriage?

Yes, life changes after marriage its not only for girls even for boys......Be prepared for changes because-some time it would be good, some times its bad also....But most of the time u can solve it by Ur self(i mean both of u)..........The main change is u WILL BE TOGETHER for life.....but the best part is after some time u'll be so addicted to each other.....and even dependent on each other.....

Having new relations?

U will marry one but with that U'll get whole lot of relations,lol:)............People have different character,different emotions,feelings,opinion so be prepared to meet many characters in one family....

what ever after marriage u should accept them as Ur family- even boys should accept girls family as his family so boys be prepared:)

Sharing things?

AHHHHHHAAAAAA....I know some of them really don't like to share anything but be prepared to

share everything, Ur marrying someone u love to share Ur life than, whats the problem with sharing Ur space........

Focus on both family and career?

U should really be focused on Ur career as well family -because nowadays many divorce cases are filed due to not giving much time for family because both couples are working they have there own stress, just be prepared to come home with no stress.............don't just break Ur head it all depends on the compatibility between U n UR life partner........ 

Little couple fights?

Fights are common and some are healthy in a relations but know that it should not exceed a night,don't be stubborn one person can't win the fights always it should be from both of u so if u say sorry or love u doesn't matter actually its good for Ur relationship......... 

Relatives annoying comments

Hey all............

I dono why people are so worried about other's life, why can't they just think of there own life/family.........I know they have whole lot of problems which cannot be solved by them and still commenting on others.........

There are some relatives who really care about Ur life and they don't make u as a topic in a gathering.... I really appreciate them,because its very rare to find them............

Annoying relatives: I dono what they get by talking about others or by giving such mean comments on others, gosh they are so irritating.....They have problem with everything-i mean it, am really surprised how do they get so much time to think about others......

This drama starts from the childhood -may be even the day Ur born lol:)  start comparing with other kids its not only studies, even looks....at that age who cares about looks,in India being dark skinned girl is a big problem.... because u wont get married (am talking about 90's kids now i dono)......... They Start commenting on someones looks in a gathering from there childhood, how do u expect the child to be confident for the rest of her life -Ur just ruing her life..........

Ok if Ur fair, they won't leave u they start commenting on the negative part of Ur body, like i told u before they have problem with everything dark,fair,fat,thin.....They wont stop on commenting on looks.......They are worried about Ur graduation,marriage,kids............

If Ur in final year graduation then its time to get married according to them,if Ur not married till 24 or 25 then U have problem with Ur character godddddddd should save them  guys.........OK if Ur happily married and did't have kids- then also they have problem.....They are not ruing only Ur life -they are ruing Ur parents life and for some extent Ur spouse  and they say they are worried about u.......just show ur a*s to them and move on and u'll have a wonderful life...

Indians traveling to Singapore- Tips

Travelling to Singapore, I know by this time U would be done with Ur visa, airlines booking and much excited for the travel..... First thing U should now is its a very humid country u just need to pack cloths according but carry a scarf,stole or cardigan u will need it when Ur inside where the air-con will be on all the time even inside MRT.....

When u arrive to airport rent a taxi to Ur hotel or place where Ur staying in Singapore as taxi fare is quite cheap....Don't worry the taxi drivers are really cool....U will need at least 3 days to tour Singapore as its a beautiful place on earth to visit once in life.....

Y am writing this blog mainly for Indians is V Indians love travel around the world but most of us like our desi food where ever v go at least one time, my suggestion for u travelers is book Ur hotel near little India or Farrer park so that u'll get lot of Indian restaurants around...If u wanna try some local food its really good i'll make another blog on local foods u can try.....

Its really difficult to get vegetarian restaurants when u go to gardens by the bay, bird park, Sentosa -takeaway Ur food from some Indian restaurants or any which u like near Ur hotel... because these places take lot of Ur time u'll be tiered so pack Ur food this saves energy,time and even money as SGD is more than INR and even cost of leaving in Singapore is high....If Ur packing Ur food after eating use the dustbins don't just leave there clean Ur place ...... Singapore is a clean city keep it clean......

U can use MRT as it is the easiest way of transport low of cost and even time, there will be MRT connected to all the tourist places...I'll put the map of MRT....

    www.mytransport.sg click on the link for MRT map....or u can take Taxi....

HAPPY TRAVEL enjoy Ur stay in Singapore hope this helped U... 

Best Hair serum for frizzy hair

MATRIX Deep smoothing serum -this is my all favourite serum which i really swear by and am using this for almost five years now, so today i thought of sharing my favourite hair serum.

My hair is frizzy,dry and wavy, its quite difficult to maintain frizzy hair-this serum just solve my hair, am just sharing my experience, so that it can help at least one out there......

Biolage deep smoothing serum-claims:

• controls frizz
• deeply smoothens rough ends 
• protects hair from humidity
• adds instant shine
• instantly detangles
• nourishes dry hair   

My opinion on these claims: yes it do controls frizz but i didn't feel it smoothens rough ends (please comment bellow if some feels the same) and as Singapore is so humid it do protects my hair, the other things like instant shine ,detangles yes it do work as they claim.....

Cost in INDIA : Its really affordable Rs275 for 100ml.

How to use : Use this on a wet hair,just take two drops on Ur palm rub it and apply fully on the length of Ur hair.... 

I hope this helped u just give a try u will be amazed of the result....

Best Body lotion for dry skin- Vaseline

Its really hard to maintain dry skin, I have suffered a lot during winters in India,what ever if u apply its just for one or two hours i was really fed up of trying products, by afternoon my hands used to look really ugly- i mean it, i just used  to cover my hands all the time- even in summers.........

Later on I realized its because all the chemicals am trying on my skin are making it dry.......but some of my suggested, might be am not drinking enough water which my body needs, lol:) in this generation even kids know it, Ur body should be hydrated which intern helps Ur skin....  Then I decided to stop experimenting on my skin and just did some research where i came to know that u should apply body lotion which contains more percentage of glycerin, yes this so important then I started to use this product VASELINE-Intensive care .

Let me tell u what it claims: 

•    Clinically proven to keep dry skin healed for 3 weeks 
•     non greasy 
•     deeply moisturizes to heal dry skin

Well i dono about dry skin healed for 3 weeks but for me it took around 2 to 3 months for a noticeable change in my skin.....yes its non greasy as it claims.

Ingredients: The main ingredient which i noticed is glycerin and its the second ingredient on the list.

that means the percentage of glycerin is more in this product so this is the one product for dry skin people like me..................

How to use: Apply this product all over Ur body just after Ur shower which really makes Ur skin feel healthy
