JJKN was the first show I really watched... I'm a complete book-a-holic and indian shows... weren't so much my thing. I mean I'd watch the occasional kkusum... the occasional kutumb... but that was it. I was watching sony, saw a promo and thought: hmm interesting... little did I know how much it would impact my life. It caught my interest immediately... my eyes were glued to the TV... I'd look forward to it every night...
To put it simply: I was addicted. 😆
I think we all have a little bit of Jassi inside of us... she's someone we can relate to... someone we can laugh with... cry with...
I had my own share of problems... problems that I thought no one else had... Jassi proved me wrong. I saw myself in her. I used to dream for a makeover (nope still haven't gotten one! 😆 ) like overnight I'd become beautiful and actually fit in at whatever town life took me to next.
Jassi became my best friend during the times when I had none... the dark times of my life when everyone had turned their backs on me and I felt as though I was battling the world alone.. all those nights I cried myself to sleep... Jassi kept me hanging on. That show was the one light in my life... the one CONSTANT in my life. Most of the time, I didn't even have the channel! Every week I'd call my aunt and ask for an update... Silly, I know... but what can I say?It's pretty pathetic, I admit, but hey! That's just the way things were...
It sounds cliche, but JJN taught me, my young teenage self, that beauty is not what you see... it's what you feel, it's how you think, it's how you are... and ultimately, beauty that is skin-deep does not matter at all.
The old Jassi shared my frustrations, my sadness, my happiness.. my innocence... and when she became the new Jassi, she was someone I admired... I wish I can be as confident as she is!
And of course, there's IF... my wonderful IF family! How I wish I had discovered this forum in the summer when JJKN was at its peak! Granted, I don't know many of you well... Still, I feel like I belong here... that I have a place here. I've made life long friends... had tons of special moments that I will never forget. 🤗
And JJKN is what got me all of this... a show... an Indian soap! 😆
Thank you JJKN!!! I will never forget... 😭
Sorry if I bored you guys... 😳
