SASSY-SIX👄💓💪




(Drawing credit : Memer)



As I have specified earlier, I am part of a group of six girls and we are insanely crazy people.

(Warning: If you meet one of us, never ever bitch about the other one of us, she will surely kick your ass and send you to hell).

We are so close to each other that we share every single thing that happens in our lives, talking about studies to relationships, literally everything. We all are so different from each other but we still understand and accept each other so well.

This beautiful friendship started back in our initial months of college.

Here in IIT Jodhpur we have an Family Culture of IIT, which is basically a student guide system, in which 8-10 girls/boys are given one student guide which is a 2nd year student and the girl student guide is called Amma and boy student guide is called Bapu. And the kids under each Amma and Bapu call each other brother and sister. Similarly we have Dadu-Dadi .(3rd year students)

This system at first seems a bit weird but with time you realize that this is a cool concept to increase interaction between 1st yearites and 2nd yearites and also among 1st yearites too.

So, let’s come back to the topic for which this blog is dedicated.

We six are sisters.

In the initial days, we had different set of friends with whom we used to hang-out whole day. After a few time because of this whole Family culture of IIT, we started getting close with each other and started hanging out with each other as we were sisters.

Initially, all 9 of us used to hang out together, but with time we realized that we six are more comfortable with each other and can match each other’s level of mind and by that I don’t mean anything related to intelligence.

So, we six made a group and we proudly call ourselves ‘SASSY-SIX’.

If any one of us is feeling low, she will just drop a message which says something simple like “My room ASAP” and within 5 min all are in her room, asking what happened. (Because we all are on our phones 24x7).

If any one of us starts crying regarding any issue like low marks or getting scolded by parents or fighting with parents or regretting over something we said (which we all do at some point of a time),  we all start crying (except one and maybe you know who you are if you are reading this).

To emotionally support this crying session, we also play some sad songs too, which helps us cry more. When we start crying on one topic, we bring out other topics in our life which we feel like crying on and we cry on that topic too.

So, basically if one starts crying, it ends up all of us crying.

Now, let’s talk about some happy things and not crying over some baby-sized topics.

Whenever anyone of us is hungry and wants to go to canteen or food-truck, a message is dropped in the group saying “Anyone interested in going to canteen/food-truck” and the interested one answers a yes.

If one of us is going to take a nap and has a problem of waking up to an alarm (which we all do, except one), we message in the group like “Wake me up at _”. And the person who is awake during that time will bang the door (And maybe break it too) until she wakes up.

So, basically we are like a mother to each other who supports her child no matter what. (If you are a mother of any one of us, then I am sorry nobody amongst is trying to take your place.)

So, this was basically just an introduction of our group, now let me introduce you to each member of the group.

For ease, I am going to give names to each one of us, they won’t be our real names but these names would be somewhat related to our life. You might get which name denotes which one among us, if you know us.

CODER:-   

She is a phenomenal coder and can literally talk about coding and technology for 24hours. She is the tech-person of our group. 

She is also a member of the dance club (like me), so we vibe on beats and can dance anytime we hear some good song, which sometimes is an embarrassment for the other members, but we don’t care. We keep on sending dance posts on Instagram to each other.

She also loves listening to songs with beats like EDMs. Our friendship basically started with songs. We started sharing each other’s playlist and suggesting some good songs to each other.

She always helps all of us in life-related matters.

She is a very strong headed girl. Till date, I have never seen her drop even a single tear from her eye (which is opposite to other members).

She can literally stay awake the whole night, doing coding or chatting with someone and can sleep like a log the whole day.

She has a bit poor sense of humour, though I am not saying I have a good sense of humour, but we tease her and mockingly say to keep her mouth shut whenever some lame joke comes out of her mouth.

She has a very beautiful smile and we all adore her smile. She always keeps smiling and taking life like life and not crying or getting sad over little things in life.

She gets good marks even though she sleeps in class, which none of us has decoded yet.

I just want to say, thank you so much for your advices related to life and making us laugh in very serious situations.

She has a beautiful soul which makes her unique.

DRAMA QUEEN:-        

I have chosen this name for her because she is literally the drama queen of our group. She can literally manipulate anyone of us (especially me) by making cute faces and talking in cute voices or by making us feel regret over something we haven’t done or we shouldn’t feel regret over that thing.

I don’t know how she does this but still we love her even though we hate her at those times.

Whenever we are given any assignment or task in our class which we have to do in teams, she always teams up with me because I’m one of the closest people in the class. The teams are made so that we can interact with the whole class and can learn how to communicate with others. But here we are, making teams with those who we already know so well, so that we can chit-chat in class and gossip too.

She is one of the cutest people I’ve met in my life, not only by looks but also by her personality. We (majorly I) call her a teddy-bear, because she looks so chubby n cute. And I love teddy bears, the way I love her.

I distinctively remember one time, where I was feeling very low and it was midnight. Everyone was asleep, she too. Still I went to her room and knocked the door. At first, she shouted saying to let her sleep. But when I said that I wanted to talk and I’m feeling low, she instantly woke up and opened the door for me. Even though she was so sleepy, she sat with me and comforted me for 1-2 hours. That night, I realized that I’ve found a friend who will be with my no matter what happens.

She always comes to my room asking for food (because I’m a Gujarati and as all know Gujaratis have 24x7 supply of food). Also, whenever she comes to my room, it feels like a tornado has attacked my room. Not a single thing in my room holds its position. It’s like my room was held upside down for 2 minutes.

She also loves Chicken-Chowmein which we get in our canteen, like me. At first, whenever I’ll ask about going to canteen (which I do a lot), she’ll say a big NO, and then I’ll take out my nuclear weapon which says ‘We’ll order Chicken chowmein’ and I win.

She is not a pet-lover. She gets so irritated when we all are sitting together and me and Hottie start talking about our pets.

(Tip: Whenever you want to piss her off, start talking about animals and enjoy the scene.)

Whenever she knocks, I’m like “No God, not again, I have just cleaned my room”. I have scolded her thousands of times to sit properly and not pull my bed sheets out of my bed, but as if she is going to listen to me.

But, no matter how much I hate her for being such an untidy person, I also love her for being there for me whenever I need her.

She is one of those persons in my life at this stage of my life (and maybe for the rest of my life too) that scolds me for my mistake but still understands me the most.

She is one of those few people who tell me that I’m getting mood swings and asks me to calm down during my PMS stage where I am a huge food-craver and gets a truck full of mood swings.

She is someone who hugs me and says everything will be fine whenever I’m feeling low.

In the end, she will always hold a very special place in my heart. (I still hate you)

MEMER:-

She is one of the famous people in our group. She is famous for her sarcasm and her memes.

She is one of the sweetest person I have ever known. She is a huge Anime fan.

She talks so much about Attack on Titan, Death note, Kaguya-sama (These names are learnt by heart till now to all of us and the credit goes to her).

Because of her, I have started watching Tokyo Ghoul (which is an anime, if you don’t know) (and my first anime series).

She is gorgeous at sketching. The way she draws eyes of human characters is something which made me a fan of her sketches.

She keeps on making pages on Instagram and then keeps on deleting them as well.

She gets huge loads of mood swings (like me) and becomes quite dangerous like an atomic bomb which can blast anytime during those crucial days.

But still she is a very good person. She always supports us.

She is like me when it comes to keeping room clean and I love her for that. (Please don’t change)

Though she makes jokes on us and never answers any question of us in a normal human way but we still love her.


HOTTIE:-  
  
(I know you will kill me for giving you this name but truth is truth and it can’t be changed).

She eats a lot but we don’t know why she doesn’t get fat. (This irritates us all)

She is a kid from inside but acts very mature when the situation calls for it.

She is one of the most understanding people I’ve met in my life.

Sometimes I feel that she is like Joey (from F.R.I.E.N.D.S.) who says ‘Joey doesn’t share food!!’ She never likes to share her food unless and until we emotionally blackmail her by saying ‘You are so mean, we all give you our food but you don’t’. This usually works.

(Advice: If you want her to share food with you, blackmail her and for this you can take some tips from the Drama Queen of our group as she is good in drama when it comes to these things.)

(Though, this might not work when it comes to her favourite food. But still you can always try.)

She is famous in our group for always ordering stuff online and then returning it in 1-2 days, finding any type of fault in it. Till now, she has been blocked by a shopping website. Not only did she successfully got her account blocked, but she also got Coder’s account blocked by the same website.

(Warning: Never let her shop from your account. Your account might get block.)

She loves animals (opposite to Drama-Queen). Whenever we two are alone, we have only one topic for discussion, it is our pets. Whenever I miss my rabbits, I always go to her and share my feelings, because she knows how it feels to stay away from your babies (which are our pets. Don’t get any other thoughts.) We both can literally talk about our babies for a whole day. We discuss what type of mischiefs they do and how many scratches we have been given by our babies.

She is obsessed with babies (and this time I mean human babies and not our pets). We keep on sending posts related to ‘human’ babies and animals to each other all the time on Instagram.

In the end, you are the cutest member of our group (I am sorry Drama-Queen) and I love you for always understanding me.

MIDNIGHT SINGER:

Now, you might be thinking from the name that she will be a very good singer, but it’s not completely true. She sings well (Better than me, atleast). I chose this name for her because she sleeps quite late at night, and whenever she steps out of the room at night, she sings old songs (which I love though), which scares the shit out of us, if we encounter her during those times. Sometimes, it’s seems like she is a ghost wandering around in our hostel during midnight singing songs like in classic Bollywood horror films.

She is always ready to help anyone. You have a problem, go to her. You want something, go to her. She never says no. She always handles things very calmly. She is always smiling and singing songs. She is the coolest amongst us.

She is a bit childish, but that’s what makes her special. She is also very mature when it comes to something serious; she has always supported me and has been there whenever anyone of us needed.
Even though she looks cute and beautiful, she is a bit naughty too. Just when I think that she is innocent she does something which changes my opinion.

She gets really scared whenever we talk about ghosts. Once, I remember Drama-Queen scared her and she got so scared. Not only is she afraid of ghosts but also furry teddy bears. I have a small bunny teddy bear which everyone finds cute, but not her. She is so afraid of it that she doesn’t even touch it.

She is crazy about maggi. If you ever go with her to the canteen, then you’ll definitely find maggi on your bill. When no one has maggi at their room, she has. She is so crazy for maggi, that she can make maggi in her sleep.

Also, the thing which is very different about her is she loves salt. Yes, you have read it right, she loves eating salt. She is so crazy about it that she even stole a bottle of salt from mess. (Don’t tell anyone about it!)

No matter how weird she is, she is still very beautiful. According to me and I guess according to all of us, she looks good in all the outfits like Indian, Western, etc.

So, I guess this is pretty much it about all of us. You now know the other 5 and maybe if you are reading this blog, you might know me too. Well, when I first started writing it, I thought why anyone would be interested in knowing about my Girl-Gang. But then, I thought that it’s OK if anyone is not interested in reading it, at least this would be a memory of us on my website.

After our graduation, when we will all be separated, this blog would always be there to remind us how weird we were in our college life and how crazy our Girl-Gang was.

I think I’ll end it now. If you are amongst us six, then I love you and I will always be there for you even after we have been separated. Also, I feel really blessed to have you guys in my life.

(Sorry, this blog has been a bit long, but when I start writing about us, I just can't control myself.)

(Thanks for helping me out in my blogs and giving me honest opinions about it.)

5 Things my Mom taught me!

That's me - before puberty hit me and my mom - pretty as always :) Puberty hit me good! My mom still the same :') The context behind this very special blog is because it's my Mum's birthday today (PS: You can wish her in the comments below). And to do something special for her I decided to write things that she has taught me knowingly and unknowingly. I think that the most special feeling for anyone would be that they have made an impact, an influence on someone. That feeling is just more than money or love. It's a feeling of respect, and how the days you've talked has to lead to that breakthrough. And being my mom, she knows me for 19 years now (and 19 days, but not my point). I have mentioned her and my dad in many of my blogs but they both have taught me so much more. So, here are the 5 things I learned from my Ma: 1. Hustle as much as you can when you are young - this will ensure a comfortable life later! Now, I know this contradicts the point of 'Life i...

To the best week of 2021!

I know it's too soon to announce the best week but I feel I'm not going to have a better week in the remaining months of 2021.  I visited my Nani house and met my 6 cousins.  Played an endless number of card games. Mostly lost in all. Jammed to 2000s songs while playing. Got challenged to recognize songs just by the starting tune. Won that challenge with flying colors 😉 Got dressed up. Hijacked elder sis's jewelry collections🥵. Troubled her while sleeping by cuddling😈 My Younger sister combed my hair from time to time😂. Lots of internal jokes🤧 Middle sister making efforts to make the house of cards. And me like a pretty nice sister trying to crush that house😊 Comparing heights with both my brothers😬. Still proud to be the tallest🏆. Laughing on almost any random thing. Talking about school and online studies📖 The infinite arguments and exploring options for Movie night🎥 Fighting for who will get that last chip at 1am. Gulping down Jeeru bottles🥤 Everyo...

First days are always exciting, no?

To start with, I forgot to mention the GOOD news in the last blog. We crossed 5000+ All-time views on these blogs after 25 blogs. Yayy!! I am really grateful for this and so happy! I never thought these blogs will ever be such an important part of my life but now I can feel that these are growing into something more big and meaningful for me. So, thank you all of you who always took out time to read and comment on my blogs. I love you all💓 Having said that, let me start today's blog.  Being an experienced stationery-lover, the only thing I find exciting in a new academic semester is to start using new books and pens. Going all out on stationeries. Throughout the academic year, I crave vacations and when they finally arrive I crave using the stationery and new books. It's a never-ending cycle!! (My first blog was literally about  Vacations!!??..  ) Today, I woke up at around 7:20 (which is pretty early for me). I gave myself a pep talk and tried to lure myself to wake up ...
