Killing nostalgia
How often do we think about the past, reminisce and enjoy the pleasant memories? As a young adult, I currently go through a traumatic roller coaster of emotions, overwhelmed by how time flies and how I miss being me. The old-plain-mischievous-little me! It was recently that I realised a little detail that made me feel … Continue reading Killing nostalgia
The beauty of things that never happen!
"My faith in you is fading...." - Sang Taylor Swift in her "Love story". But we all have blurred faiths everyday, don't we. Because bad days and bad chapters are all parts of everyone's lives. Though, staying positive might sound all optimistic, irony is that, we are all walking the path of fake optimism. We … Continue reading The beauty of things that never happen!
To Florence – The city of Flair
I was 14 years old when I picked up a novel starring the female protagonist, Susan Fletcher and David Becker, her fiancé and an eminent professor. I barely had any idea on the book or how it was going to change the rest of my life. The book I am talking about is, "Digital Fortress" … Continue reading To Florence – The city of Flair
Embracing endurance
Life isn't what it seems to be. Because gravity doesn't hold true for emotions and desires. You might love what you are doing at the moment.

The desolated omnivert
Anything and everything seems all nice and fine until you reach a point in life where you wish to change to see the so-called, "better version" of yourself. This happened with me as well. To someone who has been an omnivert (a.k.a ambivert) life has always been easy. I took up the privilege of switching … Continue reading The desolated omnivert
You, Me and Mani sir
You, me and Mani Sir This was something I have always wanted to write, but managed to make it today. As a kid, a growing up teen or a grown up adult, I have always fantasised the idea of, “What if my life was a movie?”. But right now, at this point in life, I … Continue reading You, Me and Mani sir
Knight in shining armour
It was at 3:29 p.m. when my cracked phone's screen popped up with a notification from WhatsApp reading, "Going for final printing". I jumped out of my snuggly PJ to give myself a shower. After a hustle within the next thirty minutes, I managed to drive my scooter in the sparsely crowded road at 60kmph, … Continue reading Knight in shining armour
