Let's face it, we all get to a point where we want to be just alone. We're out of money, excitement and probably friends. Yes, it's hard to believe but I guess that's the harsh reality. But, there is a silver lining. Look around you'll find a huge cultural heritage. From each chaiwala to some fried stuff street vendor. They all got their stories. Stop feeling pity for yourself and get out of house. Just wear a comfortable outfit and put your sneakers on. That's all what you really need when you're pretty low on budget but still want to 'treat yourself' with cheap thrills. Here's my own Hitchhiker's Guide to our Galaxy, our "Kokata" kolkata and thats too under ₹500 ($10) No matter where you stay whether it's mainland Kolkata or across the Ganges, Howrah, the rising city. You can always find the heart of it, the lovely tea-stalls. You'll not only find tea but also different people's opinions on different subjects. ...

Marijuana or Cannabis or Hemp or Ganja, many names for one great commodity - Weed is the most widely used illegal drug in the world with more than 125 million people consuming it in some way or the other every year. In India, marijuana use has been historically bound to religion and mysticism. It is claimed to be a drug that helps the ‘stoner’ attain "ecstasy in the original sense of the word". India has a heritage of charas (hash or hashish, which is made from weed seeds), bhang and weed for centuries. Although, enactment of stringent narcotic laws in 1986 made the production, transportation, sale and consumption of Cannabis illegal in the country. But why exactly is the ban? Marijuana was not illegal from the very beginning, in fact it was completely legal in India till 1985. But after that under the pressure of the United States, Rajiv Gandhi’s Government put up a nationwide ban on cannabis. Although we humans are a bunch of hypocrites leave the politician...

Morning Moaning, waking up in the morning and having morning sex. Morning Moaning, a term we all probably have heard and know of. But I have a total different view on the term based on my past experiences. This is the moaning is the moaning of life. The term when I first heard of it was disgusting to me as I did not know what it meant. In my mind, there was something very filthy and pathetic going on. I do not know whether you have got me yet or not, but I am talking about people’s potty noises in the morning which actually kind of sounds like moaning. Yes, I know you’re already judging me, I know it is a pathetic interpretation of the term but this was my first thought when I encountered the term Morning Moaning for the first time. And it is not even my fault. Let’s get to the back story and see how in the world I got this interpretation of this term. In my Higher Secondary School days, I had to wake up at around 4 O clock in the morning as my school gates would clos...

Some truth we should acknowledge before saying anything else. Snapchat is one of the most heavily used social media, just like WhatsApp and Facebook (which are both juggled by Mark Zuckerberg). It's just an image massaging and multimedia mobile application. I'm not shock to see that how many Indians went apeshit on Snapchat's "poor country" remark. But one thing what really worth laughs is how people are reacting (over-reacting) just on rumours. Thanks to the social media and other “news” platforms people really don't get bore that often, after all they're having best matinee gossips for news! Please don't get me wrong. I'm just saying it with all regards to logic and reasoning. So, let's see when and where this fiasco happened This incident happened a couple of days ago, when talks started flying across the Indian subcontinent that Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel made this extremely infuriating statement, "This app is only fo...
