Things I learned from Veronica Mars

I just finished watching all the three seasons of the show plus the follow-up movie based on the character Veronica Mars, and I love it.

Veronica Mars,the protagnist is a high school student who helps her father (who is a Private detective) solve cases. She also helps her classmates using her sleuthing skill. Well, as far as the High School drama is concered the show is like a less bitcher and glamourous version of Gossip Girl . It is a little dark at places and the picturization reminds of Alferd Hitchcock movies. It is a great and engaging show, which has something for almost everyone.

However, I love the show for it main character, i.e. Veronica Mars. She is the most badass person I have come across on Television. She is smart, sassy, courageous and confident. Her wisecracks and humourous exchange with her father are the best parts of the show for me. Well, as the title suggests I am somewhat smitten with her character and relate a lot with her and have learnt a lot from her as well.( What may follow may sound cliche and many readers would think that have I not learnt this from other sources as well, but this show has just reminded me of the these things again, especially at a time when I desperately needed it)

The most important takeaway from the show was to stand for what you believe in, even if the whole world is against you, however this should not be akin to stubborness; admit when you are wrong.

It also reminded me that being friendless is not actually a bad thing, it might actually  a boon sometimes, a blessing in disguise allowing you to find yourself and to understand who are actually your friends. It also taught me to be my own person despite whatever anyone may say. 

I also remembered how important it was to be able to laugh at oneself (Veronica did this by making blonde jokes on herself) and the importance of  humour even in  the most dire situations. 

Finally it reaffirmed my belive that scarcasm is one of the most purest joys of life. 

I think my decision to watch Veronica Mars was Godsend ( Don't worry people I have not suddenly embraced religion), right when I was about to give up on what a lot of people call "bitchiness" Veronica Mars showed me how to embrace my inner Bitch.
 
So, I guess the appropiate ending to this post would be, "The Bitch is Back" ( A reference to the last episode of the Show)

Restoring back faith in humanity one person at a time.

So what I was dreading finally happened, my friend and my crush finally got together. But as it turns out it is not that bad, I don't feel resentful or sad in fact I'm quite happy.  I have realized I didn't like him at all. I was just fascinated with him and that fascination got over as soon as I talked with him for some time. He is just as boring as everyone else. And on the top of that I'm really happy for her, I never knew I was such a good friend. See she had lived in Delhi for a very long time so as to cope up with the beasts there (yes that what they deserved to be called) she got into this shell, became something she was not. But with him she feels she is returning back to her old self. And she just seems so happy, I can't just simply resent her happiness and frankly I'm not that damaged(I still have faith in humanity), in fact I'm not damaged at all. My thick skin has protected me pretty well from the activities of these beasts. I feel people are c

Not a Teenager anymore

Well, I think it is about time I revamp my blog. There are a cuple of reasons for this- to begin with I am not a teenager anymore I just turned 20 so the blog desperately needs a name change. Plus I started this blog when I was really young with really no clear motive in mind . Over the past two years it has become more like my online journal, but a very ill documented one at that. I become activee on it when I feel like and leave it at the drop of the hat. My lack of commitment to this blog is something which I am really ashamed off, I know I have no readership so I slack off more and thus begins the vicious cycle. I did not start this blog for the readership but then again I don't really remember why did I ever start it in the first place. I remember I always thought ( and still do) that I was a good writer  and ws capable of producing something that the world would be inerested in reading. But, now I do realize that though I am a good  writer but there are better writers out

Need for validation

I have known it for quite some time that I have a very desperate need for validation and I can't tolerate criticism, there have been times when I have stopped talking to people or have manipulated public opinion to his determinant against a person who has dared to criticize me. I know I have a fault, I know that I am not really that good of an orator but I know one thing for sure that I have this friend to whom I have referred before as. " That annoying friend" and dude I know she is dumber than I am. I know it in my heart and my brain. She is just this extremely emotional creature who as acts like a child, is extremely uncompromising and a grave attention seeker. She is really slow can't understand criticism. But that is not what I am writing to you about, what really annoys me is that the fact that she does not work hard at all, she does not even complete her syllabus, does nothing, I know for a fact that she can't write or think crap and still ends up gettin
