Old and New...

-
    Opposite in nature, the words -old and new... but in my world they exist, not just exist but overlap each other and that's because each old memory, each old thing and each old friend brings along with them a new feeling.. a new memory... a new something.

     Philosophical enough. Well we had our prize day in school and more than the prize it was seeing our friends, our classmates together for one last time ( I hope its not the LAST, but still!). It seemed so different and yet so familiar. It was just so.. so nice. Asking one another about college and course, taking selfies or pics - so that we could look at them, even years later and remember that time. Sounds pretty dumb and obvious, but for me its worth mentioning. And not to forget the time we had after the school, I mean when the whole thing was over. Two of my best friends took me to CP and we had loads of fun. One of them, now, an outstation student- so she had a lot to share about her college and people and the places there- and let me tell you this- hearing it all was really interesting especially with a cappuccino in hand. And yes, not to forget the yummy cheese garlic bread and pizza that we shared ( I am sorry, but I HAD to mention this... hee).. When it comes to fast food and coffee- I seem to have no control as to writing about how tasty they were ( indeed!) And wait, how could I ever forget Dunkin Donuts wali treat! If you haven't, then you must try the death by chocolate and alive by chocolate donuts- they are SOMETHING..( and only people who are crazy dislike them-- one of them being my friend..ahhh) and the hot chocolate which was hot ( really hot) and delicious ( as always). Am sorry I am rambling on like a 9 year old kid who just loves chocolatey things but....do I have an option? -- apparently not.

    I just want to add that it was a PERFECT day and I hope more of them happen... ( big question mark here, though) Thanks to my best friends who made the day wonderful. And hey..wait forgot to write this- I finally saw " ME BEFORE YOU" and the movie's really nice and sweet.. And makes u want to live life in a much bigger and better way that you ever imagined before... worth a watch.
Its been long, so abhi ke liye itna hi..

To be or.. not to be

Dearest Gentle Reader,      There is no gentle way of saying this, but let me try: vulnerability is scary, necessary but intimidating; significant yet brutal; crucial but painful. It's about laying ourselves bare, even when the very thought makes our palms sweat. No, I did not get heartbroken, because I'm way past the stage. I'd rather break hearts than get mine stomped. Forgive me, I am new to the Bridgerton world so my over-the-top attempts at being dramatic can be quite irritating. But I do love the way Whistledown writes. Powerful, witty and so so good. My sister scorned me when I proclaimed that I could be a gossip writer - I mean it's a far-fetched absurdity but why not? Once upon a time, I thought I would write a book, see my name in print and that would be it. The thought makes me cringe and smile together. It still seems a childish fantasy, but you never know. I feel someday, I might still try and write something. A bad, crappy story but still, I hope I get to

In between worlds and places

     After three drafts of absolutely nothing and months of struggling to write anything worth saying, I'm ready to ramble unabashedly here. Before sitting to write this post, I was sure that I'd have plenty to say. About my latest obsession with Emily Henry's YA novels (especially Happy Place), the Kdrama rut I had been experiencing for a while, shifting to a different city or just becoming more acquainted with myself. Now that I'm finally writing this, I have Ri tucked between one arm, a blanket on my feet, an open window behind me, and a clueless me. The breeze coming from there makes me feel like a typical character except that I'm making it sound like that. In reality, I'm using the blanket to save myself from the mosquitoes, keeping Ri closer to not feel the chill in the air (log kya kahenge? A Delhite shivering from a little rain?) but yeah, the breeze is real. Making me feel alive and happy. I never thought something as simple as standing near the window

Fading footprints

Wow. So much for my resolutions of writing more frequently, here am I writing just near the end. I can't blame my work schedule or other people: this one's on me. But then every time I sat down to write, I just couldn't finish it because I felt something was missing. Gestalt psychology asserts that we're so used to interpreting things as a whole, processing patterns in entirety that we fill in the seemingly missing details ourselves. Maybe, that's what I am going to do in this post: try to sketch a summary of the last few months, by remembering and writing about the details that came to define the experience. Where should I start though? Should I start with my new IKEA plates? They have been my best buy ever. The set of deep white plates makes me want to cook and then plate the dishes well. They also make me feel like I'm enjoying a rich meal. While some people enjoy cooking and are really good at it, I've come to realize that even if I'm not half as goo
