From buying to selling to quirking one can do it all. With the growing technology, isn’t it important that each one of us is also upgraded to the latest advancements? All thanks to Quikr, we are able to live up to the latest technology developments and are part of now the globalized or rather mobilized world.

Quikr has been one of my favorite online selling site and now buying too. It is one of the best one indeed. Quikr has always ensured the best for its customers and has enabled hassle free buying and selling for its customers. Not just that Quikr NXT has truly been a blessing considering the fact that one is shifting places or just relocating temporarily; from furniture to cars; from laptop accessories to real estate services, Quikr provides you with all.

Let me share one such recent experience that I have had with Quikr NXT, it is as early as last year towards the end, that my car started to worry me with constant issues with its engine. I took it to places from repair shops to posh showrooms but looks like the car had a destination set, which was Quikr. So while sitting online in office one day, I decided to put up specs of my car on Quikr NXT and within minutes, I mean literally minutes, I get a chat pop up from a prospective buyer asking for more details and car pictures. I instantly decided to help him with all, without wasting absolutely any time on those lengthy calls. Well I got more enquires the same day and within a short span of 15 days I got rid of my old Honda and got myself a second hand Ertiga. Ok this is what I call a deal, a deal with absolute profit!

Selling things has never been so simple, but with Quikr one has to stop worrying because Quikr NXT takes care of all your worries. One of the best feature is the chat option which helps you take control of your privacy completely. I am truly in love with Quikr NXT. Well that’s not all Quikr NXT has rather surprised me this year with my Ertiga, as I said selling was easy with Quikr, being on the other side of the table, which is buying my new vehicle wasn’t any difficult either, in fact it was amazing being able to experience both aspects of Quikr NXT selling and buying.

So, I followed the same process of contacting sellers and it was an amazing experience, as the sellers were instantly available and ensured that I could view every detail of the car on my handset, thanks to the picture sharing facility with Quikr NXT. Well this is my experience with the Quikr NXT, I am certain to have more such. Thanks Quikr NXT for doing a great job. Quikr NXT has truly transformed the Indian classified market!

HAPPY HAIR ?

Tried it all, nothing works, for my hair refuses to budge! Like most girls, even I have issues with my hair, to an extent that I sometimes feel going bald. My hair has always been on the rough and dry side, with of course split ends adding to it. And to be very frank I have never liked my hair, because it has never liked me either.

I suffer from the bad hair day’s problem very often, so often that it occurs almost 2 -3 times in a week, and with no option left I am forced to tie my hair into a bun. Bun, makes me feel older than my age and I hate it when people say; leave your hair open. It is only me from within who understands what it is to leave my hair open.

I wish I had hair, which was easy to manage or at least god enough to let them stay away from a closed knot. I wish I did not have to waste hours in the salon to get that perfect hair do and that a breeze would wipe them all away. All I wish I had hair that would bounce in the air, with no split ends like dead roots of a tree and that my friends never teased me of not being able to set them free.
Well I have a wish list and I hope someday it comes true with Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition.
                                                                                                                                                
No to Spilt ends                                                                                                                                         No to Dry Hair
No to Frizzy Hair

I am all set to revive my hair and am hoping to have my wish list dream come soon. Garnier Fructis Triple Nutrition will help my hair take the challenge and renew it to the hair I always wanted. 

All I can say is that Garnier will take care!

HAPPY MORNINGS

A child’s joy is a mother’s joy, a child’s pain is a mother’s pain and so when a child is uneasy or not comfortable it is the mother who struggles to ensure that the child is made comfortable. As a mother your child is utmost priority and especially when the child cannot speak and it is only the actions of the child that make you understand what the child wants. A mother understand best what the child needs and hence this is yet one of the most important and crucial things that a mother needs to take care of.


A child’s good night sleep makes the child wake up fresh and active. I am sure we all like it when our children our full of life and active. And the credit to this goes to the mother. A mother’s up bringing and care is seen in the child’s behavior. If a child is happy and dancing it is the mother who has ensured to keep the child comfortable in the night and ensuring that the child has had a good night sleep.

From reading out stories to singing the lullaby, we as mothers have done it all for our children and always strive to do more for their happiness. I as a mother have always believed in giving my child the best of everything and I believe in absolutely no compromise for my child’s health.
When I speak about health it starts with the basics that a child needs, which is also one of the most important one that is ensuring that the child’s diapers are changed in proper time and that he has to face no inconvenience for any such issue. This becomes more important in the night, because during the day a mother is there all active to see what the child needs, but we as humans are no super beings and a mother is no exception, she also requires that good night rest to be running around the child all day long.

Pampers are the ones doing the work of a mother, while a mother is sleeping. A good diaper not only ensures that the child is able to sleep well but also ensures that the child’s health is well taken care of and that the child is not falling prey to any kind of illness and diseases.

At a young age, children are generally prone to infections soon and ensuring that the child does not fall prey of such infections, a mother must keep the child well and take care of his or her hygiene. With pampers, I believe a mother can do that and ensure that the child is healthy. Pampers helps your child get that proper sleep and stay away from any infections. It also helps your child enjoy a comfortable sleep with no tension for wetness and irritation to the baby soft skin.

As a mother, I truly believe in keeping my child healthy and hence I believe that pampers does the work for me and helps my child enjoy a good sleep and wake up fresh in the morning.

MY HEART PAINS


When I write this today, it of out of the pain and anxiety that my heart has from within and of course with a feeling which carries tons of emotions. You call it an emotional outburst or call it my way of dealing with things, I pen down my thoughts, because that is my way of letting go off things.

I was at the sea side this evening, with my family when I come across this small little girl, who is barley 2 and her sweet and innocent voice has got my attention, she screams out to me to buy the books that she is selling. I am zapped and look at her again, this time with more alertness and more closely, a 2 year old girl, well dressed, is selling books that she is ideally supposed to have and play with and design her thoughts upon. The cartoon characters that I was exposed to at her age, she is selling that only so that she can have a meal for one time, and I instantly decide to buy all her books. She runs to her mother and gives her the money. I wish to go up to her mother and question her for putting the young girl to such a painful childhood, yet I hold myself back, with the thought that there is little that we can do to give her proper meal for 2 times and that her mother is only doing so to ensure her survival and her daughter’s survival.

My eyes cannot move away from her, when I see her taking the ice cream cup from the dustbin and yet her eyes full of innocence gaze blankly at the candy shop. Her mother yells out to her; Ameena come back here and that little girl in all her innocence still holds on to the door of the candy shop. My heart felt the pain today, when I realized my pain is so little and so small in front of little ameena. I wish life was so easy and wish I could do more for her. I cannot sleep is all I can say, as the young girl is on my mind from the time she called out to me “Didi, please book le lo”….

My heart pains today!

QUIKR NXT


Quikr, it is! The one word to all your worries, you wonder why I am saying that. Well because Quikr is here, there and everywhere. From shopping to matrimony looking, from education to the gadget addiction, Quikr has its wings spread across and like a branch of a tree, Quikr is also here, with different features and different benefits to offer to each one of us. 

I have been using Quikr for quite a while now and also recommended the same to my family members, especially my Mother.I remember how upset she would get, each time we would call the local scrap dealer to our place to take away the old radio and video recorder sets, from old laptops to cupboards. She always used to get disheartened with the price the dealer would quote and very conveniently would say “Mam, this is all a waste now, what will you do with this, this price is fine”; with a very heavy heart my mother would discard the stuff and then later crib about how we gathered money to buy it then and now are selling it for dirt cheap price. 

All thanks to Quikr, my mother is now content with posting ads online and getting appropriate deals for the products that she wishes to discard. Off late she has also learnt to post my images on matrimony services offered by Quikr; (I wonder, why did I make her so tech-savy; or rather was it her strategy to learn all this and one day post me online :-P) 

So guys Quikr is a loyal and the most royal site that me and family have been using. I am sure many of you out there agree with this.And to add to the brand loyalty and increase its popularity, Quikr has come up with more features to woo its consumers and add to the list of new customers. Quikr is now here with a great feature, which is the Quikr NXT. I am all excited to use this feature of Quikr and experience what the company has to offer. But before I even use it, I genuinely want to applaud Quikr for its great initiative and going that extra mile to ensure customer satisfaction and on the competitor front a global transformation. Way to go Quikr, you truly deserve an applaud for this one! I am sure you all are question mark on this, as to why am I so content with this new initiative of Quikr, well folks I have all the valid reasons to and here is how it goes.

First and indeed the most impressive one, is that Quikr NXT gives you that option to ensure you have your privacy well maintained and that your number is not public to all creatures. This one is my personal favorite, especially being the counterpart of the males, this particular feature has given me that extra security that I need, to ensure I don’t have people calling and harassing me unnecessarily.

Next on my list is the Quikr Chat history, this one yet again deserves to be the second on my list. 
With growing work pressure and hardly any time to yourself, does one really get a chance to remember or recollect what conversation you have had with the callers whom you contact on Quikr. I am sure none of would have such a sharp memory or rather at least I don’t and I am thankful to Quikr NXT to listening to my plea. With the option of chat history I can now have access to price quotes and all chat conversations that I have had. I love this feature.

Last on my list, is the option that Quikr has given you or rather made you in position of power by enabling the Chat feature, is that you can contact buyers or sellers at a time of your convenience or rather from anywhere, because I am sure one can secretly chat even in the meeting room but will be questioned, if on a call outside the room. And so, with the Quikr NXT I can now contact my dealers on the move, without having those long conversations and increasing my phone bill.

These are a few of my personal favorite features of Quikr NXT. I would urge you all to stop getting fooled by your local scrap dealers, because they are doing you no good and with Quikr NXT at least it’s all good.

#USEYOURAND

When it comes to doing things for yourself, how many times have you been put in situations where you are choosing between options, and how many times are you in a situation where you can choose just one and there isn’t any option for and. Well, personally I have come across such situations very frequently in life and rather at most critical phases of my life. Where my heart screams out to say wish I had both, but the situation demands me to choose and pick one, and put the other thing down. Such is the law of nature, is what my mother said, in such situations, and with this was attached a long and brief session of discussion, which goes on to say, you never get everything in life, and more so as a woman you have to sacrifice more than this.

To this, I just simply put on my earphones and pretend to be listen to her, not because I disrespect her, but just because our thoughts conflict and in such situations, it’s better not to drag conversations. I believe in doing things and achieving results, because sky is the limit for people who believe in themselves, and when sky is the limit, I am sure there is no gender discrimination here. I don’t agree with the fact that you have to choose between things in life and settle and compromise all the time. If one really desires something, one can attain it fighting all odds.

And so, the same applies to me and my personal life, when I was told to get into a profession soon after college and adding meaning to my life. Honestly back then I was so naïve to this and had not even thought of being in a corporate ever, because the passion for writing was flourishing within me and I always had things to write upon, but how many of us are allowed to make careers in such fields? Does the society let you grow? Do your own parents want you to do this or just like it when they see a 6 digit number in your bank account?

Well, I am sure you know the answer to this and hence I am here today to share with you a story not to tell you about what I had to let go in life or choose, but rather to tell you that never settle for things in life and choose between things. Here is my story folks, so well I am an HR professional, with appropriate certificates to back me up and ensure I sustain in the career for quite a while, but I wanted more to my life and did not just want to settle for a 9-6 job to myself and I knew what is that one thing that gives me that kind of satisfaction and completes me. And the answer to this was writing, as I told you my passion for writing was always there, but never got a chance to pursue that as a fulltime career and hence I never let that passion in me die, I rather let it grow within me each day, only so that one day I could be here I write to you about my story and life. Blogging is the first baby step that I have taken to fulfill my passion and will take more such steps to attain what I truly wanted to be, i.e. a Writer.


So folks, here is my little story, of how I did not settle for things in life and did not choose or, instead I made that or into an and, and here I am a mid-aged professional in HR and an aspiring writer. I hope my story inspires all you women out there, who have had to settle for things in life and are unable to pursue their true passion. Go women, empower yourself, because your empowerment will in turn empower our nation.

THINGS THAT DEFINE ME

This post is a part of #UseYourAnd activity at BlogAdda in association with Gillette Venus

Well, everything right from my dressing to my clothes pressing, from my cheek dimple to the forehead pimple, from my caring nature to my attractive and eye catchy feature, everything contributes equally to defining my personality and defining just me as a person.

 So, when one asks me what defines me as a person, I simply answer; it’s me and entire personality, my very existence defines me, me being a woman defines me, me being a mother defines me, me being a housewife defines me, me being a sister , a wife, a friend to someone, all of this define me and my personality. Folks every little factor contributes to the making of (you); you as a person, you as a human being.

If I was to describe myself in one word, I would just say, that being a woman describes me the best, a woman of substance. We as woman go through so much in life, from a phase of being a daughter, to being a sister, from being a wife to a mother, aren’t all these phases of my life, enough to define me.

Yet again, if you ask this to any woman, she would answer this as simply, motherhood is the best thing that has happened to me and being a mother completes me as a person. And hence I would also go by the same saying   For me I am at a stage of my life, where I am still to experience all these phases of my life and I am looking forward to welcome each phase. Being at a home, where you see your mother managing everything so impeccably, I believe truly in being a reflection of my mother and being a woman of great substance, who can balance all her relations with utmost care and harmony. And this defines me!
