Why Students Should Start Reading Right Now

Reading is not just a habit or a passion, it is a passage to escape reality and get drowned in the story of another universe. The books we read, especially college students help understand the world better and develop new insights and ideas. Getting lost inside a book is a feeling that can’t be expressed in words. To get that, you need to read and immerse yourself totally in the story you are reading. 

Unleash the Nostalgia within You at Bunta Bar in Delhi

Some Real Talk About Freedom For College Students

College is a time when most kids enjoy their initial taste of freedom, but just like addiction, this could be somewhat of a slippery slope. When in college people need to juggle between several stuff, like relationships, friendships, financial independence and most importantly studies and living on a stringent budget.

At such a confusing time of their lives, it may often get difficult to navigate the times of college-years with adult-like calmness and maturity, after all being a college students is like being somewhere in between. 

At one hand if you are too sincere and reserved about light-hearted college life fun, then you will miss out on a great deal of whole life’s worth of experiences. And on the other hand, if you are too easy to be tempted at even the slightest motivation of partaking on a great adventure with a lot of things at stake, then this could easily turn into a life-altering tragic situation rather than being a fun adventure worthy of a funny story later.

So, it is important to know the fine line between these two.

May Laughter Bless You: The Success Story of Kenny Sebastian

Comedy is a joy-evoking activity and probably it is the only way of preventing war and promoting peace. Comic enthusiasts are strong advocates of comedy being a form of art. Although the art has undergone some serious changes over the years, the motto of comic acts has remained the same and that is to evoke happiness into the minds of the audience.

Modern stand-up comedy

The history of modern stand-up comedy can be traced back to 1970’s when a new generation of comedians started this new type of comic. One of the important features of the modern stand-up comic is the inclusion of socio-political jokes that were not common earlier. Suddenly the comic scenario witnessed a significant revolution, as comic artists started using their freedom of speech and expression, in order to point out the society issues in a funnier tone. New comedy clubs were established in the USA, UK, and many other countries. But, India was still far from experiencing such an innovative form of comedy until 2000’s. However, once the Indian stand-up comedians started participating in the art, not only did we laugh but also became proud of them. One such stand-up artist is Kenneth Sebastian, whom most of us know by his nickname ‘Kenny’.

The journey of Kenny

Kenny was born in a middle-class family and his father is an Indian army officer. His childhood was a significant one, as he travelled across the country and had done his schooling in different schools. Right from his childhood, Kenny has been a creative personality and had an interest in filmmaking. He started making short films at the age of 15 and until he became 23, he already had directed and acted in a comedy show aired on ‘Comedy Central’. And the name of the show was ‘The Living Room’.

Learn To Pack Like a Pro: Backpacking Tips For Students

Are you planning to take a backpacking trip around the country?  Then you must learn how to pack small if want to live for the chaos of travelling in budget as a college student. Imagine the great many benefits of chasing down your train with a small backpack that may leave unapologetically on time (for a change). With a light luggage you will be able to squeeze into (or climb on top of) the only train to the village in Rajasthan.

Sometimes travelling in India can get even crazier, a time may come when you may need to make an emergency stop at the police station to bail your tour guide out of jail! In such circumstances you will need small luggage to save you and your fellow travel mates and cram them in a small fishing boat as your scheduled ferry leaves, to eventually splash your way to the island hotel where you can watch the sunset while sipping margaritas on time.

WHY ALL GIRLS SECRETLY GUSH OVER ROYAL ENFIELD RIDERS

In India, the country with a population of 1.25 billion usually there are more single guys than single girls. And out of all those single men if one guy gets some attention from a girl (may be just a smile or a flick of hair tucking it in shyly behind her ears) that day turns out to be one of the best for him.

You could see him inflating his chest to go up to his friends or his crush trying to brag about that isolated incident. But the girl on the other hand would have a strikingly odd reaction instead of handing him over jealousy in a cup. She would probably go somewhat like this – Oh! This one girl gave you attention?! Let me pull out the list of guys who flirted with me while I was walking to the bus stop 10 minutes ago!!!

And just like that all this man’s pride and happiness would be shattered into a million pieces. But there is a breed of men who do not have to feel any such shame when it comes to getting the attention of women. In fact they get plenty of that while riding their beefy Royal Enfield motorcycle where girls peek from above their boyfriends’ or father’s shoulders and steal glances of this royal bad boy!

But why? What is so grand about a pair of wheels attached on to some metal making a hellish noise that makes women go gaga?

We tried to pinpoint some reasons why a Royal Enfield bike makes women gush over the rider. 

We believe a man riding a Royal Enfield is a confident and stable person who is firm about what exactly he wants in life. They are the breed who do not hesitate to stand up for what they like and are loud about their principles and choices, just like the ride of their choosing. This is probably the primary reason that sub-consciously draws women’s attention towards a rider of an RE regardless of his looks and attire. A confident man should be a successful one as well, hence a natural choice for women.

Another unusual reason but an effective one is the price point and status statement attached to owning a class bike such as the Royal Enfield. One will seldom see a middle-class man buying an Enfield to get to work faster. The motivation for buying an Enfield is must more than necessity, it is about pride and the overall experience of having the beast hum underneath you while riding, this lures in women’s attention.

And finally, while somewhat unlikely but since RE riders have a bike-brothers club-like thing going about them which makes them feel a sense of niche community, many women like that. Everybody likes to feel included in a group of some kind and this cult feeling of like-mindedness lures in riders and their women to this regal renegade of riding into the sunset, cinematically without a care in the world.

Now that we have established why a Royal Enfield can get you out of perpetual singlehood for life, maybe it is time you got an RE for yourself. If you are in college then check out a YUP Card subscription to get amazing discount offers for maintenance of your royal beauty at the Kolkata Bike Zone, the best place to get Royal Enfield Services in Kolkata.
