Ray-Ban chick

First things first.

I'm not dead! (In case you thought I was!)
Just a little busy. And stressed. You see, I have my H.S.C. board exams coming up. The thought of which makes me a little cuckoo. So now I'm gonna talk about stuff. You know, materialistic things. So if you're the kind who hates materialistic people, do not read further. And I know you're not just gonna stop reading now, so consider yourself forewarned!
Did I tell you guys I got a new pair of Ray-Bans? (gift from Mommy) I am in love with vintage-style frames (you know, browline, horn-rimmed etc.) Also, both my Mom & Dad have two absolutely iconic Ray-Bans- Dad has Aviators while Mom has Wayfarers. (Yes I purposely linked to the Wikis so you can read up a little & find out why am I so in love with them.)
Hence, I always wanted my own Ray-Bans. I had planned on getting Wayfarers (you know the colorize range makes them in absolutely cool colors?) But I kept going in & out of stores & never got the colors I wanted. So then one day I did. This pair of bubblegum colored (yes that's what I call them) Clubmasters which are based on the Browline style. And now for their grand unveiling on my blog-
Obviously people are gonna wonder why I got such weird glares. Especially when they cost more than my cell phone. So let me tell you. I just saw Quentin Tarantino's 1993 flick True Romance & loved all the glares in them. Vintage. I was a year old then. Most of the shades you see now-a-days are either Aviators or those supposedly-fashionable huge glares that all the so-called fashionistas wear. Which were cute at first, but are oh-so-generic now. I wanted something different & quirky to suit my personality. And I got the perfect pair. Thanks Mom :)

  2. Hello There,

    First let me introduce myself, I am ARJuna a young blogger from Mumbai. I have been reading all your blogs for quite some time now.

    I am sending this mail for a reason. I am turning 20 years old on 11th February, Thursday. This isn’t just any other birthday. It’s a coming of age of sorts and more importantly it is the day I cease to be a teenager. I pass on from being a Teen to an Adult.

    I want to take this opportunity to connect with teens and adults alike who share my love for blogging. I want to know their views on the teenage and teens.

    If you are interested to do a guest post for my blog, please make a note of the following:

    1. Send me a reply on arjblogger@yahoo.com as soon as possible so that I know you are interested (include your mail id so that I can send you an invite to co-author my blog).

    2. As soon as I receive your mail I will add you as a member of my blog until 15th February, Monday.

    3. You can publish your post anytime in that period though it would be preferable if you could post on or before 11th February, Thursday (so that it can coincide with my ‘coming of age’)

    4. I have given a few pointers below to give you some food for thought about what you can blog about in your post.

    The guidelines for your post are as follows:

    1. What does ‘teenage’ or ‘entering teenage’ mean to you?

    2. What did you think ‘being a teenager’ and are you living up to those expectations?

    3. Your experiences – good and bad - as a teenager that you face/faced.

    4. What kind of trials & tribulations, internal conflicts, successes and failures did you face/ are you facing?

    5. Any precious piece of wisdom you realised as a teenager?

    These are just guidelines; you can choose to adhere to all/some of them but remember your style, creativity and opinion are more important.

    Looking forward to your reply
