Words that make me feel

 Hellos bebe,
This is Coco. So recently, I've been surfing the net and coming across various things. And some things just caught my attention, I mean, there are these unusual words that we feel inside of us almost everyday, but still don't have a word for it. People don't usually realize it, but we are all humans afterall. These words just have a grounding sort of feeling, and personally, 110% of relatibility. So there were many but I picked up the 10 most beautiful words I ever read:
1.  Sophrosyne
A healthy state of mind, characterized by self control and high level of self awareness resulting in true happiness. It's like nostalgia, playing under a peepul tree. It's perfect happiness. 

2. Magari 
It's the feeling that says, 'kaash' or ' I wish this was true' . Because it's not always that we get what we want. And if you are still a student. It's never, that you get what you want. Can't describe it better. 

3. Meraki
This, I feel is a common one. Many people do know about it I feel. It means putting love or soul into doing something, especially if that is something you love. For me, it's writing. 

4. Elysium
You know that feeling when you realize, the guy you like , surprisingly likes you back ( note for the unaware - happens under rare circumstances ) and the happiness you feel. How perfect it feels.  That's elysium.

5. Kalopsia 
I sort of regret putting that example in the above category. It belongs here. Because it's illusion of life being more beautiful than it actually is. But really, I wish it actually belonged there. 

6. Alexithymia
Tbh I don't feel like this word is really beautiful in itself. It's like when you can't describe your feelings. That's something, that people with depression face. And even on the daily run. I don't feel it's actually really healthy. The more you keep things inside, might seem temporarily better, but actually, it'll burst later.

7. Eunoia
It's opposite. It's a healthy mind. A mind that's taken care of. A  mind that aware and wealthy. In short, the mind of a person, who takes care of their physical and mental well being.

8. Mad'ouk
Tbh, this is my favorite. It's a person or thing, toughened by life. Sounds simple but it means great. I mean we meet 1000s of people everyday, on the street, in complexes, everywhere. But we don't know where they come from. Their roots, their morals. And what formed them. Personally, I want to sit, just once, and listen to someone's back story. 

9. Zephyr
The breeze we feel in spring. It's pleasant and warm, but not hot. It's soft. I mean stand in the cold wind and stand in the warm breeze. You'll feel the wind cutting through you.

10. Minutiae
This. Truly, this word is one reason I started this blog. It made me feel confident. It means the small details about people and things that makes everyone and everything unique. It just gives me confidence, because really after all the idiocy I've done in my 16 years of life, 😂 I can't imagine myself not shying away in certain situations.
 
Anyway it ends here. Please feel free to comment suggestions on further blogs. I will be writing a few blogs on studying tips and strategies later. Also happy Tuesday. Goodbye.

Overthinking overthinking.

Hellos bebe, This is Coco. So, recently, there've been many people around me, who are talking about one thing- overthinking. Its not a new concept, and is wayyyy more common than we think. Like Ik people think, what's new? Well, the fact that people don't realize how important it is, and why it's got us beat is new. I mean we all do it sometimes. Some of us do it always. It's just how we think.  But really, I feel it is important because, tbh introspection, reflection, retrospection, is all overthinking- in a positive form. Think about it, emotions are not an abstract thing at all. They are chemical reactions, to simplify it to the least. Just like that, thinking is not an entity in itself. It's just an action, or to say the next step. And well, the name, overthinking can't be taken as a separate entity. It's just another mental action. Like maybe, come to think of it as, checking out a mental grocery list. It's a mental action.  I feel, emotions are...

Taking care of my teen skin

Hellos bebe, This is Coco. There are teens preteens all around the world buying loads of skincare products without knowing much about them. And some are simply late bloomers. This is my honest advice and experience I want to share here. 1. CTM is essential regardless of skin type. I know it's so basic but many people still think moisturizing isn't for oily skin. It is. Reason? When you wash your face, u strip your skin of oil and dirt along with natural moisture. Aloe gel etc, are natural humectants. They lock in hydration in your skin. 2. Read labels when searching for humectants on moisturizers. Not all humectants work for all skin types. For a dry skin aloecucumber gel won't work as it is not as creamy as products specially formulated for dry skin. Same the other way round. 3. Exfoliate ! But don't overdo it. This one is pretty self explanatory. When you exfoliate you don't just remove a dead cell layer, you also dry out your face and cleanse your pores. Hence, o...
