Oh. its October...

Hmm.. its been almost two months since i last wrote... it wasn't that I didn't want to write but the thing is ( you've read this a hundred times right?) with all the assignments, tiresome college routine and me being one of the laziest persons I ever----couldn't manage a post.. And of course the month being September. For the past 15 years I've spent as a student- the month always spells out the word - h.o.r.r.o.r. Yeah... the weather's not helped more.. So continuing my tradition of starting a post with cribbing and grumbling about my work lets get on..

Fortunately its mid semester break now... even if its only for a week... and although I've got a checklist of - to do things- I haven't started. yet. Why does this happen to me? I mean I said i won't talk about work and bla bla but here I am again..... Sorry. To be honest I've been binge watching a lot of movies... I saw 'Mubarkan' starring Arjun Kapoor and it was kinda funny... could have been a bit shortened but overall it was okay... Then yesterday I saw 'Judwaa 2' sequel or rather 're-boot' aka 'remake' of the original 1997 Judwaa and I loved it... I kept my brain at home and went to watch it... its a laugh riot- and #Varun Dhawan adds to the screen.. his charm... Don't judge me for a) sounding like a filmy junkie - although I do love Hindi films quite a lot and b) for anything and everything.. I saw some old classics also starting from my fav. ever- Pride and Prejudice... no matter what time or day it is--watching this film or reading the novel its a pleasure... I love the book....the characters especially Elizabeth and Darcy for not just their 'appeal' but for showcasing the flaws..in people...relationships and communication. Veer Zara I feel was another classic movie in Bollywood...its songs..characters..dialogues and story were so good and rich if I may say so... its beautiful.. and timeless...

Now that you are convinced of me being a 'filmachari'--- credit to one of my best friends who loves this tag!! let me just say that sometimes it just feels good to watch a movie, however stupid or fantastic it may be...and you feel kind of cheerful.. Have you experienced something like this? Ever?
Will write something which makes more sense later this month... once again my heartiest congratulations to one of my buds who is enjoying med school... keep calm and carry on...haha.fangirlattacks#.... 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

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
