7 Experiences Every Indian Has On A Train


Every Indian has travelled in a train at some point in their life. This train trip is not just like any ordinary journey. It comes with its unique experiences which we will be describing below. Here are the 7 things we all have experienced.

1.Chai Song



The familiar chant of “Chai-Coffee-Chai” is always associated with the Indian Railways. This has become their unofficial anthem. From Kashmir to Kanyakumari this song has remained universal. It shows that however diverse India maybe, chai always unites it.

2. The Railway Beat

The railway beat of “Ta-dak-ta-dak” has always kept us company on those sleepless nights in the train. It first sounds irritating but soon you get lost in its melody before long you stop noticing it.

3. The Crowd


Indian trains are the proof of India’s huge population. Indian trains are filled with people. You find people both in and on the train. When a train arrives into the station, this crowd moves like a swarm of bees descending on it.

4. The Seat Grab

We all have this experience of getting our seats taken by random strangers who refuse to move. We end up arguing with them but to no avail unless the T.C comes. We rarely get to sit in your own seat.

5. Noisy Neighbour


This person doesn’t stop talking. It doesn’t bother them if you’re interested or not they just love telling their story. The aunties are very much interested in your personal life and the uncles love giving their advice and opinion on every issue.

6. Wash room trouble

Words cant describe this problem. The words “Railway Washroom” fills every seasoned traveler with dread. You better not eat too much because the stakes are high.

7. Wrong Seat

There are times when we are at fault. We often end up in arguments only to realize that we are in the wrong seat. Although our ego doesn’t allow us to admit our mistake we do feel embarrassed.

17 *Fierce* Female Characters The Harry Potter Series Gave Us - Thank You, J.K. Rowling.

Harry Potter is a universe with endless possibilities of twists, turns and probabilities. Maybe that is the reason that there are so many fan-fics and theories that exist still, even after the last chapter closed on us, ending the saga. J.K. Rowling gave us a bevy of characters to remember, for good or bad, through the magical world that she created, and amongst them, today we are going to talk about a few. We bring to you some of the fiercest female characters from the series - you obviously know them all, but they need to be talked and written about. Here we go... 1. Hermione Granger She was not just the brightest witch of her age, but also the bravest one. At the tender age of eleven, when one doesn't even know how to fathom a situation, she chose her path wisely, stuck by her friends in their quest to finish off the evillest wizard of all times, and displayed an extraordinary knack for not just spell-casting, but logic, bravery and knowledge. 2. Bellatrix...

Tips to Keep You Motivated While Writing a Book

 At one point of time every reader has the urge to write a book. But many of them lose the fire due to lack of motivation. Well, here are some tips you can follow if you start writing. 1. Remember the reason why you are writing Why did you start your book in the first place? It helps to keep your eye on the prize. It may be to see your story finished or your non-fiction ideas flowing into a cohesive form in a proposal so you can approach a literary agent. Experts have found that people fall into one of three intrinsic motivational categories; that is, most individuals are motivated more or less by one of three things: challenge, affinity, or power. If you're an author who's motivated by challenge — going for a tough goal and then nailing it — then finishing a book might be a no-brainer . If you're motivated by affinity, then your motivation is the connection to and bonding with other people. You might be better off framing your "prize" in terms o...
