We all have heard the phrase, ‘Being a mother is a full-time job’. But they fail to mention that it isn’t one single job. It is a complex web of many professions tangled in one messy bun. Mothers are not just ‘mothers’, they also are- The treasure hunter who, in 3 minutes, can find that one […]

Books, facebook, 9gag, ruzzle, Breaking Bad, movies- these are the meduims which help me kill time. Apart from the above, I also happen to go to a college where, very conveniently, I study Journalism and Mass Communications.
At times, I am as active as a rabbit on ecstasy and at other times, I am a burrito (a non-veg burrito, might I add). With an avid interest in travelling and irritating my 2 brothers and a dream of skydiving at least once, life is good for me. Married to Aaron Paul in my dreams, I am a day dreamer.

Friendship is not defined by time. There are people you met 2 months back and some who you met 10 years back- both can mean the world to you. Or you want to murder both because they annoy you so much but you also love them so much. It’s okay to feel incompetent. It’s okay […]

I am not the one to make a public list of resolutions, but I am also not the one to be predictable. So here I go with I had imagined my 2018 would look like: -Develop a sense of purpose in life; -Eat less animals (that is, eat more vegetables); -Not be so unhealthy that […]
C for Clouds #ILostCount
Every time I upload a picture of the sky on Facebook or Instagram, I inevitably have someone telling me that they didn’t notice the sky was so pretty that day or they cannot believe it’s the same city they live in. It’s mind bogglingly crazy how we are sometimes so engrossed in our lives that we […]
F for Food
If you are here for a light-hearted piece of writing, then leave. Immediately. This post is going to deal with a crucial and intense topic of debate that has puzzled philosophers from time immemorial. Breath out, relax and enjoy reading this with an apolitical point of view. If you must differ then we can amicably […]
E for Experience
Experience is expensive (which explains why I am broke and wiser than I was before). Looking back at 2017, I realise that I have gathered a few pearls of wisdom and no real pearls. Without further delay, I shall impart my gathered knowledge for others to benefit. This year taught me- 1- Babysitting my nephews […]
D for Diet
People have beliefs. Few people believe that Santa Claus is real. Few people believe that rainbows are unicorn’s poop. George Mallory had the belief that he could climb Everest ‘because it’s there’. Some believe that Game of Thrones is the best series ever made. To each, his own. I also, very sincerely, hold a belief. […]
C for Clouds #2
If you are someone I know personally, then I can guarantee that you are already bored of all the cloud pictures I have shared on Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp. If you are someone who does not know me personally, then I know that you are soon going to be bored of all the cloud pictures […]
C for College
College- a place that offers the choicest array of conundrums. For example- 1. Should I eat breakfast or attend the morning lecture? 2. Should I have a social life or die under the burden of books? 3. Should I kill my friends for waking me up from my slumber during the lecture or leave them […]
C for Clouds
For making it this far, you deserve the most amazing gift. Here you go. Pictures clicked on iPhone 6. Clicked over a period of 6 months in Dubai, Sikkim and Kolkata. Exposure level adjusted. (Important note- I am going to experiment a lot with the blog from now on. Be prepared for even […]
