Our journey as bloggers was a result of a highschool project but then became our inspiration. As 15 year old teens we were just trying to find a platform through which we could share our ideas and opinions with the world , and hoped to find someone to resonate with them . Call it naive but we just want to make a difference , however small it is , even if it’s just a single person we can inspire , a single smile we can bring to a face , it is enough for us for a start . We were overjoyed to track that we got views from not only our friends , our country but from all around the world. And we almost cried from joy to see ceridwensilverhart nominating us for the Sunshine Blogger Award .

Questions from ceridwensilverhart
1. How do you like your eggs? If you’re allergic or don’t like eggs, what style of egg most repulses you ?
Anshika : So I am a pure vegetarian person , so I don’t eat eggs at all .( I don’t like the smell too though !)
Sakshi : Ok so I’m a vegetarian too but due to health conditions I was imposed to eat boiled eggs once when I was 13 but I could not continue to eat it because I really did not like the stench. Eggs and all kinds of meat are loved all around the world but I just can not affiliate with them because I never showed interest in them since childhood.
2.What is your opinion of squirrels?
Anshika : hehe , okay so squirrels are an inside joke between me and sakshi ( call her a huge cute squirrel). I find squirrels super cute, little, mushy creatures and have often filmed their cute eating style .
Sakshi : Ya I’m the huge cute squirrel – hello! Lol 😉 Squirrels in general are super cute, mischievous, tranquil creatures. I like how they nibble at things but once a little nugget chewed a hole into my gramdma’s mattress. She was not happy.
3. If you come to a fork in the road, what do you do?
Anshika : Well I am both , a logical thinker and an emotional one , so first I would like to figure out the best possible choice and then out of the pros and cons will choose what I would feel like.
Sakshi: I would like to infer my way and lead the most interesting path that reaches my destination.
4. Are you afraid of the dark?
Anshika: 90% no. Well I look forward to being in the shadows or dark , contemplating about how beautiful little specs of light or for refrence stars in the dark night sky . It gives me a wierd sense of comfort I can’t exactly explain in words.
Sakshi :This question instantly reminds me of a television series called ‘Are you afraid of the dark’ I used to watch. I’d say to some extent I am afraid. Darkness has its own beauty and significance. If not darkness, there would niether be light.
5. What is the dark?
Anshika : So this is a deep question. In the above answer I was talking about the physical presence of darkness . But if we talk of symbolism , it means to me sorrows , problems , grueling challenges , exhausting struggles , the back stabbings , bereavement , sadness , the torturing fear of future in our minds which holds us back , the painful seperations …..but even after these , I don’t wish for all the darkness to disappear , cause if it does so will the light. You can’t say you were happy till you know what sadness is , you can’t tell you are confident untill you know what hesitation is ….you won’t know the brightness and beauty of the world untill you have seen it’s most ugly and darkest corners.
Sakshi : Darkness as in symbolism is the most mysterious entity that I’ve known. It is the emblem of mystery, fear and evil. But it has it’s aesthetic and I would not like it to vanquish. We know if there’s bad then there has to be good. Darkness instigates me to dream.
6. Which of these is the most magical: snow, mist, or rain?
Anshika : Ummm… A tough choice but I would choose mist . I kinda find having a vague knowledge but not details to the end point ..liberating , just like in mist we can see the outlines of the surroundings a bit but not clearly , we are somehow free to guess the details , paint in our own colours , give it proper shape to our own like and imagination.
Sakshi : I’ve never had the privilege to descry snow unfortunately. I adore rain. How the drops fall on your face and you just forget a world exists beyond you. Just dance with the plants and trees – pure euphoria. Lie down on the ground and let the drops touch you slowly intimately. It’s even better with loved ones. And thats not even the best part because the corollary is a luscious and delightful fusion of the seven colours.
7. If you went on a magical quest and got to pick a companion, would you rather have a human, a supernatural being, an animal, or a machine?
Anshika : I would take a supernatural being …which would be some kind of soul or a spirit . Like it could be just like a companion which thinks at the same wave length as me . It wouldn’t exactly know each and every thing , infact it would be just like that friend which will think and solve problems together with me , we will go through all , together . ( Some magical power if preferred then it should be highly intuitive , not exactly knowing whats gonna happen , but having those vague intuitions)
Sakshi:
I’d pick a supernatural being for sure. Cryptic and enigmatic. I’ll get to learn more about it and will be helped to its superpowers. It would make the quest even more magical.
8. Name a book, movie, or other story that you think more people should know about.
Anshika : I have many but to me the dearest is ” Tuesdays with Morrie ” by Mitch Albom . Like I have read this little book at least 10 times in two years and every time it brings me from agitation to calm . It is a real life book and this person Morrie will definately continue to live in your heart till the end of your life once you read it , as he does in mine .
Sakshi :
I read this book for the first time while traveling in a train and I laughed so hard that everyone was staring at me after not even reading the first 10 pages.”Three Men in a Boat” by Jerome K. Jerome. Their outlandish and whacky adventures will give you a good laugh.
9. If you could create a new blogging tool, what would it be?
Anshika: So if it’s a totally hypothetical question , it would ask some random mood determining questions from us and then try to shortlist the best and most appropriate topics , personalized to our thinking. (It would save me so much time from writer’s block and having 1000 or none ideas at the moment )
Sakshi :
Sorry I can not think of one 😉 it’s for the developers to worry about.
10. Have you ever seen one of the following: a solar or lunar eclipse, Northern or Southern Lights, the Milky Way, or a meteor shower?
Anshika : Unfortunately I have seen none (till now). But I truly deeply have a wish or we can even say desire to see northern lights ( aurora) or a meteor shower , like I really really want to see them once in a life time.
Sakshi:
Lamentably I haven’t witnessed even one of these. I’d like to espy them all but I’d love to look out into the galaxy and the universe if possible. It’s like a fantasy to me. Even just thinking about the endless celestial bodies, remnants of stars, dark matter and all kinds of magical specimens gives me goosebumps.
11. If someone offered you immortality, would you take it?
Anshika : My answer is no. No. Nope. Like it’s difficult enough to have 1000’s of seperations in this 80 to 90 year life span , if I live endlessly I wouldn’t be able to endure it , I can’t bear suffering and seperation endlessly.
Sakshi :
I think I would not accept immortality. It’s interesting to know more about things and witness more but there’s just too many crummy and excruciating things out there. At least I had the opportunity to live and meet all the beautiful people I did and had all the experiences I had.
