Yes, Brown and beautiful!\nTo all the Bold girls out their, Brown is not Boring darling, Brown is the new Beautiful! I proudly say that Iam a Brown complexion girl because that's how Iam. Since my childhood I was being told to use different things to improve my complexion and no wonder I've been teased many times infact by my family members too! It hurts isn't it? Trust me you shouldn't because that's how you are and somewhere deep down in your heart you know that you will not be recognized by your complexion atleast! Right? It's the work that you do, it's the passion that you have, it's the happiness that you carry is what it matters! <\/p>\n
1. \" Use fairness cream's\": People, please stop telling us to use fairness cream's because we believe in inner beauty and did I even ask you?<\/p>\n
2. \"Do not even try to wear brightcolour clothes, they make you look more darker\": According to my sense everyone has right to choose but I really think you dont have one to think so get some sense!<\/p>\n
3. Don't drink tea, it makes your complexion darker: Oh wow that means if I drink milk then will my complexion become fair?<\/p>\n
Hahahah! Every complexion is beautiful and if you judge a person based on his\/her complexion then take a picture of you in black and white and look at it, its same as your heart, without a soul! \n<\/p>\n"}]

I've made no effort in hiding how much I love playing video games, in fact I would go as far to say that my expertise in video games allows me to critique it better than I can critique movies or books. I'm just that good and that is in no way a humble brag, but simply a fact that states my vast and rich experience with playing games for years. <\/p>
So it was obvious that I was going to come up with a list of games in which you can go on an adventure. The nature of video games is such that you can create your own mini-adventures in games depending on which game you're playing. Some games are so well designed that they allow you to create your own adventure based on environmental clues alone, like the first game on our list. <\/p>
<\/p>
1. The Witcher III: Wild Hunt<\/b><\/p>
Using open world games is practically cheating when it comes to adventure games simply because of its potential of running off in any direction you want and exploring the map. But the folks at CD Projekt Red put their heart and soul into this project, because one fine day as I was exploring the marshy and poverty stricken lands of Velen, I found a dead body with a torn leg on one of the roads, which led me on a hunt to find if I could find the monster responsible for it nearby. Sure enough, I did, but all of this could have been scripted, right? <\/p>
It wasn't. A completely random and unscripted event happened, the game was designed well enough to leave clues for me to follow. How cool is that? <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1512554842099","data":"5a27c62584df9"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1512554843704","data":"
2. The Uncharted Series: <\/b> <\/p>
Now, I'm a fan of Tomb Raider, so recommending Uncharted over it was difficult for me but I did it anyway because Uncharted plays out more like an action adventure movie than Tomb Raider does and I certainly do not want you all to play the new Tomb Raider without having experienced the old ones (the first two Tomb Raider games are now available on the Play Store as well as the App Store)<\/p>
Following the adventure of thief\/antiques dealer\/scoundrel\/loveable protagonist Nathan Drake, the Uncharted series has quickly become one of the most popular modern games. It features stellar voice work, great script and a fantastic story, not to mention that it is a blast to play. As Drake, hunt down ancient relics while dodging shady people who want to steal it for their own ends. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1512555997931","data":"5a27c66993d95"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1512555258960","data":"

Shadow of the Colossus originally released for the PlayStation 2 and has immediately been recognised as an instant classic, not to mention one of the most unique games ever made.

The latest release, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, is the favourite this year to win Game of the Year awards.

We are fortunate to have so many eateries and food joints very accessible from the college if we plan to hang out with our friends sometimes. Everything from Pani-puri to Pizza, Sugarcane juice to Thick Shake factory, we have everything at our disposal and it isn\u2019t even hard to get there.

Every individual will definitely have a situation, where he\/she couldn't manage all the stuff going on in his\/her life. Most of the people will get depressed and feels suppressed mostly because of expectations. A person without any expectations can lead his life to a great pleasure. Expectations are totally different from our passion and targets. The main problem lies with us. Yes, you are the one who has to take care of yourself and never expect someone to be there for you all the time. YOU are the one, who have to face the problems and overcome the situations. You are responsible for what you have done\/are doing\/to do in your precious life. In this present generation, life isn't about telling reasons to others. Reasons literally won't work out in life. You are not the only one who feels like that. When we want something to be changed, we need to change something ourselves.<\/p>\n
If you love something, just sting onto that and never give up on any situation(#AnySituation). If you really love something to achieve, then none can defeat you by their negative shares(i.e; words, activities, disappointing, degrading etc.). For reference: Those words should be like the tissues we use in our daily life. Just ignore them. Those words couldn't even be compared with the tissues(At least tissues are used to clean, wash etc), but that kind of negative words will never help you out in your situations. <\/p>\n
DO \"or\" DIE is like you have to do or you have to quit but in my quote DO \"and\" DIE represents the task which we have to accomplish for sure (once started, shouldn't be ended without completing it), so that, we get addicted to achieving the task which would definitely show fruitful results if you really work hard up to the mark. Then, you'll never ever feel like quitting in life. The main reason and secret behind DO \"and\" DIE is like JUST DO IT and then you can't be able to die, because of the success you have achieved in your life and you'll never be disappointed till death. What has happened you can't change it. When you feel you made a mistake, admit it and move on as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n
Once you have done something you really wanna achieve, then there will be no point of suiciding. If you didn't achieve (that DOESN'T mean a FAILURE), it's just another opportunity where you have to work on it until you achieve it. It's just a competition and a challenge where you get to work hard and achieve success in that particular task. It's very good to share our thoughts and share our wisdom and knowledge with others but not the reasons. Just remember, we all make mistakes. The sooner you realise and move on, the better it is.<\/p>\n
Never stop your feelings, only then you'll learn. That's what makes you what you are, where you'll move faster. Be an independent winner, but not an independent loser (but this doesn't always work, where you do not have a scope). Life isn't about 1's and 0's, it's complex than that. Everything should be made simple, nothing comes easy and nothing lasts longer. That's why we say simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. <\/p>\n
DON'T OVERTHINK. GO for it. JUST CREATE IT. The most problematic you feel will be the most problematic situation you'll suffer from. Every single moment is a new opportunity for your best work. Everything changes the way we look at things. JUST DO IT and you'll never die unless and until you die naturally. <\/p>\n"}]
When you build your career you may face many obstacles. Obstacles are weak walls with out foundations ;If you fear them ,they will defeat you . When you face any obstacle you will either step forward into growth or you will step backward into safety.<\/p>
When you face obstacles only you will know how strong you are but sometimes \nyou may escape from that consequences by stepping backward .For example, Everyone think that they face many obstacles and they experience many pains then why don't you think about your mom? Did you observe your mom stepping backward anytime this is why she is stronger than anyone else in the world. She never express her pains outside but she experiences many pains, even though she doesn't step backward. She always thinks in a positive way only. She never regret.<\/p>
She was not born Strong, She was made Strong, She sculpted to be her own hero when the world lets her down and she keeps picking herself back, this is why she became a true warrior in the world. The true warrior isn't Immune to fear though She fights . I conclude this by saying that, Be confident, this comes from discipline and be brave, take risks, nothing can substitute experience. When you experience an obstacle or when you face pain in yourself then only you can become a strong warrior. Never degrade yourself and Never lose hope in yourself and be positive in any situation. Turn your scars into stars.\n<\/p>"}]

So, continuing from yesterday's post and on the same theme, this here is a list of my top favourite adventure movies of all time. Do note that there are an incredible number of adventure films that you can check out, but then again this is my list. So, let's start off with righting a wrong we made in yesterday's list. <\/p>
1. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Director's Cut<\/b>. <\/p>
All glorious 12 hours of it. In one sitting. <\/p>
Yesterday, I had included The Hobbit in my list of adventure books that you need to read because of how horrendous the Hobbit movies had turned out to be and - while I still recommend that you read Lord of the Rings - how could one go from the LOTR movies to something as bad as The Hobbit trilogy. But, and I'm not kidding when I say this, the LOTR trilogy is the greatest trilogy ever made, hands down. The production values, the fantastic story penned by Tolkien and immortalised over the years, the music, the acting, the framing. I could go on and on, but there's a reason we have viewing parties for these movies and sit through the entire 12 hour duration just to experience the magic of cinema and Tolkien's world. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1512446555481","data":"5a263075d4342"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1512446557997","data":"
2. The Princess Bride: <\/b> <\/p>
I actually put off watching this movie for the longest time because I thought it was a chick flick and I absolutely detest chick flicks. I was so horrendously wrong through, because The Princess Bride is easily one of the best movies ever made, with characters so memorable that lines from the movie are still quoted today. I'm sure you must have seen the meme 'You use that word, I'm not sure you know what it means' around the internet - it originated from this movie. This is a definite must watch, on the surface it's an adventure, but it examines a lot of themes in society with its characters. I love it when movies do that. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1512446791751","data":"5a26338103b9b"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1512446793681","data":"
3. Jurassic Park:<\/b> <\/p>
It still amazes me that this movie came out in 1993, because the dinosaurs still look super realistic, not to mention the iconic scene where the T-Rex appears for the very first time in the movie. As the talk around industry goes, the scene was shot at night to inspire fear as well as hide the fact that they were using practical props and covering it with animatronics. The result is one of the greatest movies ever made. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1512447246283","data":"5a2633a61340e"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1512447248514","data":"
4. Life of Pi<\/b><\/p>
Life of Pi is not the best movie I've ever seen. It is, however, the movie I always fail to find words to describe. Do I call it beautiful? Do I call it amazing? I don't know, because the movie becomes something quite close to your heart. Based on the book of the same name, Life of Pi became a major hit when it released a couple of years ago, about a boy stranded on a lifeboat with a tiger and their journey of survival together. It is...well, I suggest you watch it as soon as possible. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1512447399913","data":"5a2633c9e42a7"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1512447402538","data":"
5. Aditya 369: <\/b> <\/p>
Make no mistake, I absolutely love this movie. Released in 1991, this is perhaps the only Balakrishna movie that I can stand, the others I just go to laugh at his horrendously bad acting. Aditya 369 is a reminder of another era, which is incredibly ironic considering this is a movie about time travel. In fact, I believe this is the only Telugu movie that deals with the concept, without actually getting into the science of time travel, which is fine because the movie does a fantastic job in suspending your disbelief. <\/p>
This has to be my favourite Telugu movie of all time, it is just fantastic. It is available in full on YouTube. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1512447566959","data":"5a2633e63e3d2"}]
I swear if I see another young student take a selfie and then upload it to Instagram with the Hyderabad Metro Station location tag, I'm going to blow a gasket in my forehead. <\/p>
I wanted to do it first!<\/p>
But then again, that train has passed (hah!), so I get to do the standard older person thing and judge people based on their Metro behaviour, thus picking up points that I can pass on to the young'uns. <\/p>
And I don't care if you come at me with 'You're just 25!', do you guys even realise that half of my life is potentially over thanks to the pollution and my horrendous lifestyle? I'm probably gonna kick it at 50, so sit down and listen to an old man ramble. <\/p>
So, Hyderabad Metro. I'll be honest, I did not expect to see it finished this soon, but et voila, the first phase is up and running and already seeing choked trains like it's rush hour on Rajiv Chowk, but then again, that was expected. This is a city of 68 lakh people, the Metro has already seen 1 lakh passengers per day. Expect the numbers to go up in the coming days once the squatters taking selfies are gone and the ones who really need it warm up to the idea of using it. <\/p>
So, using my (not so) expert knowledge of Delhi's extensive metro network, surviving Rajiv Chowk and using it to travel everywhere across the capital, I have some tips for y'all. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1512396689792","data":"5a2564813e612"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1512396691658","data":"
The Dos! <\/b><\/p>
Apart from the standard run-of-the-mill Dos and Don'ts that you can see plenty at the stations, there are a few things you need to keep in mind before hopping on a potentially crowded Metro. <\/p>
1. Backpacks to the front:<\/b> <\/p>
This goes out to both students and working professionals on their way to the financial parts of town. It is very easy to lose track of things in a crowd. An overly enterprising thief can open up your backpack and steal stuff when you're not looking. All the thief would need is some confidence. <\/p>
2. Mind that head: <\/b><\/p>
Don't drown in your mobile phones, I mean, you can but don't forget to have a constant awareness of your surroundings at all times. This one especially goes out for women, there are creeps everywhere. Which brings me to<\/p>
3. Keep an old pen as a weapon:<\/b> <\/p>
Alright, it's been all fun and games but this one is serious. Public transport is basically an invitation for creeps to grope women as they please. It is utterly disgusting and also the reason why women only compartments exist, remember that the next time someone whines about women getting 'special treatment.' <\/p>
Now, hopefully, you'll never have to use it and - while I'm not dumb enough to place all of my trust in our lovely institutions - depend on authorities at each station to take down creeps, you do have a right to protect yourself. Scream, stab, kick in the balls. Works 10\/10.<\/p>
4. Be considerate:<\/b> <\/p>
Yes, I know flowers bloom whenever you walk on this planet and the stars up in the sky shine specifically for you, but if you don't offer your seat to someone who deserves it more than you, there's a special place in hell reserved just for you. It is called Dilsukhnagar traffic. This one goes out for all genders, by the way, before any of you start patting yourselves on the back. <\/p>
5. Get a Metro Card:<\/b> <\/p>
This one is important. If you're a frequent traveller, I strongly suggest you pick this up. Saves you the hassle of having to stand in line like a loser who only buys tokens instead of the Chad who buys the metro card and zooms through. <\/p>
I'm afraid I might have wasted a reference most of my readers won't understand. Eh, the things we do for the laughs. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1512400046328","data":"5a256536351c6"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1512397831448","data":"
Pictured above: The Zombie Apocalypse of Rajiv Chowk<\/i><\/p>
The Don'ts<\/b><\/p>
Now that we've got the basics out of the way...<\/p>
1. The Yellow line is not a challenge, don't cross it:<\/b><\/p>
I honestly do not understand this from some people. They see the yellow line on the platform, the one that marks where you need to stand to be safe and not run the risk of keeling over onto the tracks and into eminent doom and think, 'Hell yeah, I was born for this. Apun Roadie banega!'. The only thing you run the risk of becoming is pavement pizza with limbs cut off for appetizers. <\/p>
The line is there to warn you geniuses, stay the hell back, for the love of everything still holy left on this planet. <\/p>
2. Don't Be A Creep: <\/b><\/p>
Refer to what will potentially happen to you if you are a creep up above. Seriously though, if you see someone you like, try talking to them first to see if they even want your questionable face around the place (okay, I'll admit, I was projecting for this one). Being a creep is not gender exclusive, but ask a woman about her opinions on public transport. Nobody likes a creep you guys, it is an extremely horrendous thing to do. You're reducing a person's worth to an object that only exists to satisfy you and the world does not and will not revolve around you, ever. <\/p>
This doesn't stop applying once you're out of the Metro either. Don't be a creep in general, that's just nasty. <\/p>
3. Don't sit on the floor...<\/b><\/p>
...unless the metro is just back from cleaning. Then you can roll around the compartments for all I care, keep rollin' rollin' rollin' <\/p>
4. Don't rush to exit.<\/b> <\/p>
The North Indian vs South Indian debate is stupid. I know this because both the North and South get out of the Metro in a similar fashion: like zombies.<\/p>
Whatever happened to the civilised method of getting off the Metro? The doors open, passengers inside the train alight in a single file while two lines of passengers waiting for the train use the corners to get on. But nope, gotta be the next street fighter champion by proving you can knock 50 people in a row. E. Honda would be proud. <\/p>
Now I get that even if you want to follow rules, nobody else does, so you have no choice. There's a term for this, I believe it's called The Tragedy of Commons, but I'm too dumb to tell you anything about that right now. I might just do a piece on it, this particular term is extremely relevant to India. <\/p>
5. Don't step on people's toes:<\/b> <\/p>
Because it hurts. Also, I only wrote this point because I lost my train of thought (ha!) and remembered that one time I decided to only wear shoes to the Metro because people seem to have an unusually high tendency of stepping on my toes, both literally, in this case, and figuratively, which is a story for another time. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1512399236423","data":"5a25640da44a9"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1512399238981","data":"
So there you have it, the Dos and Don'ts of the Hyderabad Metro, drawn from a rich experience pool, a couple of shawarmas, some coffee and pure, unadulterated hatred for Mondays. Do let me know if you have any more tips to share with us, we'll be sure to highlight them in the coming days! <\/p>
On a serious note, I'm very glad the Metro project is up and running. This will save so much time and money, not to mention save you the bother of driving to Hi-Tech city and back on traffic-choked roads full of Dudes with Attitudes, that kid with the Duke who has no respect for the machine, a couple of Enfield motorcyclists with 'silencers' less obnoxious than their egos.<\/p>
Come to think of it, I should probably write a rant on that one of these days. <\/p>
Until next time! <\/p>"}]
