As A Millennial Indian Woman, Nick And Priyanka Have Given Me Dream Wedding Goals

Honestly, just wife me up already.

As A Millennial Indian Woman, Nick And Priyanka Have Given Me Dream Wedding Goals
Personal

I can almost see it, me walking down the aisle with my parents on either side of me. I am wearing a dark burgundy lehnga covered in heavy gold jewelry with my makeup and hair done perfectly. As I walk down, I see my future husband waiting for me in his burgundy gold accented shirvani and as I come closer he cries. I hope to screenshot that moment and lock it away in my brain forever.

Ever since I was little I have always fantasized about getting married young. This idea is so appealing to me partly because my parents got married at an early age and seeing their successful relationship it makes me want to attain that too. My family supports me in my decision of wanting to get married early on. But my friends and I often go back and forth on this topic due to our different standpoints.

They believe in the concept of becoming independent with an established career first and then marriage. Although I believe that if I marry young I can grow together with my husband, not separately. So that when I get down he can pick me up and vice versa.

I want to struggle and face difficulties with my husband so that we build a deeper connection with each other. No matter how rough the situation will be at least I will have my support system and work through the situation with him. I want to be able to look back and see how mature we became. I don't want to be independent first and then marry because that would just take the adventure out of the marriage. I would rather prefer he holds my hand as we walk our way down this journey called life.

Plus getting married would mean a week full of Indian events leading up to the marriage. Plus all the outfits and the makeup and all the pictures I would take with my future hubby. The goal is to look like Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, or Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas. (You already know I have a whole Pinterest page dedicated to my wedding ideas).

But until my wedding, all I can do is wait for "the one" to arrive ( and refine my wedding ideas).

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
