Game-Changing Apps (Part 2)

MyFitnessPal

This app is a calorie tracker. In this app, you can set your height, weight, gender and weight goals, and it will give you your daily calorie count. Then you can track your calories through this app. You can put in what you ate for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. Additionally, you can track your water intake and calories burnt through exercising. This app can help you reach your weight goals whatever they maybe - maintaining weight, gaining weight or losing weight. The app has a wide variety of foods. You can also add your recipes in the app. 

Duolingo

This is a language learning app which is free. You can learn several languages such as German, French, Italian, Spanish, etc. The app uses an exercise based learning method. It uses images, words, voice, etc. It can help you become fluent in any language. It can help you learn to speak, read and write in any language you choose. I think the key to learning a language with this app is consistency. Although, I also feel like this app is alone not enough to learn a language. We need an even more immersive experience like actively conversing in the language, reading regularly in the language and also watching movies/shows in that language. 

Zero

This app lets you track your fasts. You can do several kinds of fasts such as circadian rhythm fasting (13 hours), intermittent fasting (16 hours), 18 hour fasts, 20 hour fasts, etc. You can also set custom fasts. The app also has challenges that you can participate in. You can also maintain your fasting streak in the app by fasting everyday. You also get badges for completing certain number of fasts and for maintaining a streak for certain number of days. Fasting has been proven to be healthy and a major booster for weight loss. So this app is really helpful if you want to lose weight.

Restaurants That I Ate At Recently (Part 5)

That Waffle Place I have ordered from here before through online delivery platforms but recently I went and ate at their shop for the first time. They have quite a few branches I think. We went to the one in Alwarpet. We ordered their Frozen Hot Chocolate and Belgian Biscoff Waffle. I did not taste the frozen hot chocolate but the biscoff waffle was good although it would have been better if they added biscoff biscuit crumbles along with the biscoff spread. The place also had some games like jenga which kept us entertained. Overall, I would rate the place a 4/5 stars. Maison Indulgence We went to this place recently due to the Instagram hype that it has. But unfortunately, for us, it did not live up to the hype. We felt that all the items were overpriced. We ordered the Basque cheesecake and did not like it all. Ambience was okay-ish, too noisy. I would rate this place 1/5 stars. This place is also situated in Alwarpet. Mexe Another place which is in Alwarpet - Mexe. We ordered their c

Books I Have Been Reading Recently (Part 10)

That Night by Nidhi Upadhyay I'm reading this book in a paperback format and have completed around 50 pages. The book is about four friends who played a game of Ouija while at college and a girl of their hostel died. Twenty years later someone is trying to mess with them even though they live in different parts of the world. Intriguing premise. And interesting writing style so far. I think I might like this book, let's see. The book is around 300 pages long. The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas This book is about Lina and Aaron Blackford - two colleagues who initially seemingly hate each other but somehow end up becoming each other's fake dates to some major events. I've read like 150 pages of this book so far and am finding it repetitive and boring as of now. Let's see how it goes. I might rate the book a 2/5 stars if the writing does not improve as the book progresses. Or if it improves, I might rate it 3/5 stars or 4/5 stars, let's see. Until now, the pa

Five Most Patriotic Movies on Amazon Prime Video India Right Now

Raazi This movie was a solid 4.5/5 stars in my opinion. What I liked the most about this movie is that it portrays a young girl who spies for her country against all odds. The movie is based on a true story and it shed light on the unsung heroes of Indian history. The main character Sehmat left college, married and lived in Pakistan, so that she could gain intel about the upcoming war. The intel gathered by her and other spies helped India to get prepared for the Indo-Pakistan war of 1971 and the Ghazi attack. The movie is based on a book called "Calling Sehmat." Alia Bhatt plays the role of the lead actress and she was able to represent what the real Sehmat would have felt like - scared, brave, patriotic, loving, dangerous, caring, human, selfless and a thousand more indescribable emotions. Other important characters in the movie were Sehmat's husband, her parents, her father-in-law. her brother-in-law, her brother-in-law's wife, a servant who worked in Sehmat's
