The Special Day - #CupidGames


5 days to go, I had my heart up in my sleeves. I had decided the day – It has to be the Valentine’s Day. I knew that those 120 hours would accumulate countless of memories, in-numerable thoughts and a constant ray of worry that would, with each passing minute, intense as if to scare the left, out of me.

2 months ago, I had met her. It was when we had started our new session at college. She was a new admission, choosing to be the stranger in her own surroundings – I probably was her first friend in this place. And, believe me – It did not happen by chance. There are moments that I would be happy to tell, but I don’t have words enough to express them. There was something special about that day, there was something special about her too – for I know not, what kept me fixated at her, was it her charming smile? Or her looks which with every passing second mesmerized me to a new level. It was not until the moments later, that I realized, Love at first sight still exists
.
We came closer, being in a same class, discussions were bound to happen and never to cease, with topics ranging from one aura of random to another. She was the only child, bearing no siblings, I quite did understand that she was the one, who was always pampered, and need be, I would have to be the one who would take her persuasions, tantrums and everything but I was ready – I was in love.
If it would have been in my hand, I would have spent waiting those 120 hours pass, every second in a conscious of awake. For I was too, anxious to know her reply. To know what she would answer to my eternal question. We never talked on this but it seemed too natural to be talked upon. I had decided that I would ask her the best way I could.

So I bought out my father’s tuxedo, dressed in white and black and bought her a beautiful ring, which might look even better when placed on her finger. The stages and props were set, it was her birthday on 14th of February itself, so I had, even better reason to let myself keep occupied to it. I did ask her parents’ permission, for setting up a surprise birthday party for her. I let them unaware of my other intentions.

I called twice in the morning, thrice in the afternoon and countless times in evening to make sure that everything was ready, as the day for my judgement was tomorrow. I had advised my friends to keep the party blasters, and a camera and snow-sprays ready when I finally go on my knees. I wanted to record every bit of it, so that later we could look at it and smile, in a way no heavenly feeling does.
It was the longest night, but perhaps the special talk on the midnight was something which kept me awake the following night.

“Happy Birthday”, I said hiding my excitement for the following day.

Thank you so much”, said she, probably sensing my excitement for the following day. “Where is my gift?” she asked.

You’ll get it tomorrow”, I told her and smiled meekly.

I’ll accept it”, she said quietly.

And it was enough to keep me awake the following night.

The morning break out, but I was out of the bed already, prior to breaking of dawn. Called once to my love, and made sure she has a beautiful valentine this year.

So it was all set, with party going on – a party which was conducted not only for her celebrations but also for a youth who wanted to indulge in love – for the celebrations of Valentine’s Day
.
The cake was brought up, and she was handed the knife to cut it. I knew it was my chance to make a move, so I grabbed the knife in her hand and kept it on the table aside, I didn't want her to make a ferocious move if she rejected me. She looked puzzled, but I was here to solve it. Taking a small box from my coat’s pocket, went of my knees – The silence surrounded us as if the world wanted to hear those golden words. “Will you be mine?” I uttered with extreme delicacy.

She was numb, from head to toe, except her tears which flowed with the stream making a path of her fair cheeks.

I accept it”, was all she said, and the surroundings were covered with the snow sprays and party blasters all over. And most importantly, we had captured the precious moment of her life, in the pixels to be repeated again and again. I did realize, that things done bolder, are better.

My Drowning Confidence! - Pimples' Story


This blog post won the 1st Prize in Garnier Competition! Prize: Google Nexus 6! Huge thanks for Indiblogger and Garnier! - Tanishq Sharma  
To start this long story, let me tell you about the villain first - the little pricks of pimples and acne, I would like to tell you a bit about them. Human skin consists of oily glands located just under the skin. These glands produce Sebum, an oily liquid which is connected through follicles to the skin. These follicles, or the duct carries dead skin cells through them. When a hair grows from them, the opening gets blocked due to congestion and there appears a Pimple.

There are different types of pimples, commonly heard as Whiteheads, blackheads etc. They aren't dangerous to you or they don't cause hindrance to an extreme level, in your daily lives, until you are professionally an actor. (It gets difficult for the ones who are paid for their looks).
Now that is really important to the ones who are paid for their looks!-(Source)

Now, people put forward different theories in order to explain this to us!
  • Beta, Jawaan ho rahe ho! (Turning adolescent)
    Uncle, 6 saal se jawani hi aa rahi hai, aur saath mein pimples bhi.
    (Yes, Uncle. It has been 6 years since I turned adolescent, and along with it, my pimples.).
  • Oily skin hai na, Isiliye. (Perhaps because you have oily skin)
    Haanji Uncle, roz 3 baar face-wash karta hun. (Yes, but I wash my face thrice a day)
  • Acha, toh ye try karo, "xyz ka sharbat, abc ka lotion"...
    and it continues with a list of things he offers me to try..

But, lest above saying, the problem to the solution happens to be invisible from our eyes.

Every Morning Reaction!

From the ages of twelve to thirty, the problem of pimples carry on a daunting everyday task, with dis-integrating looks, a confidence with drowns with every pimple that rises. I happen to go with such in-ability too, that was, I guess I matured before my age-mates. But, then I have been going with this problem since last 7 years myself and believe me, don't believe me, it makes a grimace from the mirror which shines back when you look at it.

Much to the horror of the society which gives a preference of looks over brain - this obstacle becomes extremely crude with each morning as it increases. 

I, myself faced some of most difficult moments in life during this haunting period and I am sure most of them who are reading this must be going through such things, so let me tell you about the common problems and effect we all have had to go through when we had these little structures disrupting our faces!

Taking down your Confidence!

  • It is not possible to leave this outcome aside. Somehow, due to the prevailing preferences of society towards the body image, and the looks of one, tends to bring a change about in everyone's confidence. It is, therefore, inversely proportional to Pimples!
    (More the number of pimples, less is the confidence.)
  • There was a time when I stopped doing things which I liked, going out and stopped socializing. It was all because I did not want any one to see the ugly face which I was carrying, fully filled with the acne or pimple colonies.
  • There were times when I felt unworthy of anything, social rejection was also a part of this because the negativity and the apprehension was coming from me.
That is right!
Lack of Self Esteem!

Meeting new people? Nope!

  • Now and then, there were times when I stopped meeting people or building new friends, or citing new friendships. I still remember the times, when I moved my face cautiously when talking to someone I wanted to impress by not letting them see what my other side of face consisted - an army of pimples!
  • It surely reduces one's capability to actively come forward and present themselves, rightly so - because they are simply not presentable with the looks destroyed by pimples.
  • Whether its a job interview or a date with someone special - the pimples don't leave a chance to make you feel inferior. I have been there, done that, felt the same. These were some things I went through every single day, staring continuously for hours in mirror, trying to find in-numerable ways!

Too bad! No one suggested me that!

Unique Advises!

  • This is something which happens to the most of us, probably everyone going through some other disorder - ADVICE OF RELATIVES. They care for us, no offence but the way they express their care is something much more grave than our problems at fight. I have seen my aunts and uncles telling me about various medicines, soaps, and ways to remove pimple. One such relative suggested me to keep hair short - I am yet to find a relation between two things.
  • Other day, my aunt visited me and told me about a unique solution belonging to her ancestral ways. It made me mix different dairy products and apply on face and the places where pimples were settled and were not paying their rent. If they could sell humans, I would have been picked up by dairy lovers.
  • "Put Ice Box on face", they said. The only it did was to make my skin numb, and then I could cry with my tears flowing their ultimate path.
  • It was as if the most cursed thing which lurked on me, and the graveness with which they wanted to help me, made me say just one thing, "Pimple se darr nahi lagta saab, aapke tariko se lagta hai..".
Kaash koi hame bhi ye bata deta! (Source)

Other Signs!

  • Researchers studying the extensive behavior of people at this age has suggested that in turn - the pimple or acne can cause severe psychological depression.
  • There are times when all, you think about is how to get rid of these things, which has an adverse effect on our health. For example:- Less appetite, insomnia due to extra pressure stress.
  • Due to the feeling of unworthiness, we tend to work on a slowest pace in our duties and work.
  • They don't spare our mood too, in-case you are wondering. Thus, mood problems take away the people around us.
  • You just try to do everything and anything that comes your way in solving this problem, even the in-solvent ideas of your peers tend to make you feel that they will work, but alas, nothing to cure this with.

What I learned from this!

Damn Right! (Source)
  • There are times when you feel down, there are times when you got to feel unworthy of yourself but you know what matters the most? Its realizing the fact that you can appreciate light only after you have been in darkness. Perhaps, not today but time will come when you turn into adulthood, and then your body will finally adapt to it. 
  • There is a proper way you need to go through towards the problem, in having a successfully finding a cure.
  • People around you will help, with intentions of actually making things better. You need to listen to everyone, but do only what seems sensible. 
  • Its nothing to feel insignificant about, everyone goes through this phase, and its a part of life. You only have one life, no regrets should be a part of it.

Personal Experience with Solution!

  • After trying various solutions, and when nothing seemed to work, I was advised to use Garnier Pure Active Neem face-wash. Now, there one distinction about this face-wash, i.e, Neem is a natural remedy for acne. It is not a miraculous cure but with the help of it, problems of acne can be successfully cured.

  • How does it happen?
    Neem tends to kill the bacteria which causes acne to grow. It also helps in prevention of acne to grow again. 

  • How to use it?
    It can be used tropically but a better form is with the lotion or a face-wash - Hence Garnier Pure Active Neem Face-Wash is a perfect choice for it. 

  • Effects on me?
    I made a substantial reduction in the number of pimples all over my face, and it surely helps me reduce oil from my skin.

That is me after its Use! (Source)
I hope my experience plays a vital role in shaping your fight with pimples!
