Hellooo 2070 !

"Day after day nothing changes and when you look back everything's changed" ~ Unknown

As I'm trying to write about the things that happened in my life this year, all I can think of right now is this quote which I read many many months ago on the internet . It didn't make so much sense then but it sure does now. Funny how life can change so much in such a short time. Well, I don't think 365 days is a lot of time. Anyways,When I say that this is undoubtedly one of the truest things ever written, I know I speak for everyone else too, regardless of all the differences that we might have.

The year 2069 was filled with surprises for me. Small surprises, big surprises, happy surprises , funny surprises, sad surprises.. I had them all. Even after all these things, If I'm totally honest with myself, I'd say it was a great year . I had my share of sadness and tribulations too....but who doesn't, right ?

A year back, at this time exactly, I was a bundle of confusion. I didn't know where I'd end up to complete my high school, I didn't know if the marks I scored in my SLC would be good enough for myself to be happy, I didn't know how the hell I was going to spend my longest vacation after 13 years of School and most importantly I had no idea what kind of work I'll be doing to sustain my life . I still have no idea what field I'm going to pursue after my high school but atleast the things I can do is pretty restricted now... and I'm saving all the hassle of "aiming at the right direction" for later.. !

This year was also the year of new beginnings and first-timers for me. I joined a new college, made a whole new lot of friends, met so many amazing people, started my very own blog, went to new places, took part in a rally against social wrong-doings... dissected frogs and earthworms, wore a Sari for the first time in my life ....and many many more stuff which I can't remember right now. lol. And yet when I go through the things that happened in my life this year so far, all I can remember is the good times. Hah, I must have had a great year afterall .. ;)

It's a few days till the new year's day and I'm already excited about the coming year. A New year equals new possibilities for me. Yup, You could say I am enthusiastic about the silly new year celebrations too. And , to be honest, I see no reason to not be so because it's not everyday that I get to celebrate and be happy for the arrival of a day which is pretty much the same as the previous day and completely different too, on that matter. Best of both, I guess !

As I sum up my article, Let me let you in on a secret of mine... the lower you keep your expectations, the joyful you are ! Trust me, this is the most valuable thing I've realized till date ! ;)

And, An early new year's greetings to all you lovely people... :) Let this year be the happiest year of your lives so far and bring the best out in all of you... May it be the year of beginning of good things and the ending of the bitter ones.. Have a great year everyone ! :D

And to top off this post, I have a great news for all of us. This blog is VERY close to getting 3000 hits ! How awesome is that? :D Like I always say, a writer is incomplete without the readers so a BIG 'Thank you' to all of you for getting me this far. 3000 hits and many more to go....Cheers ! :D

Goodbye !
XOXO

Sensations

PC: lovethispic.com He isn't cute. Cute doesn't even begin to describe half the person that he is. Cute is momentary, flimsy. And he is the furthest from flimsy as one can get. He is beautiful. His voice is beautiful, his laugh is beautiful and the way he looks at me, he makes me feel like I'm the most beautiful girl he's ever laid his eyes upon. He is a blazing flame. And I am but a mere moth. I'll get burnt, I know it. He doesn't promise me otherwise, either. Deciding it will be worth it has made all the difference. I could say I love him, but those three words can never justify the kaleidoscope of sensations I feel when I'm with him. He is all colors in one, at full brightness.

I know I can count on you :)

Hey good people!! Its been long since I updated my blog. But you know,when I don't feel 'ít', I just can't write anything! lol I know that I keep telling this but every bit of the next sentence is true. I'm just crazy like that! :P Okay, so today's post is certainly not about my stupidity.(You had probably guessed that considering the large heading but I wanted to mention it anyways..lol) The post right here is about the people who accept my tantrums, silliness, mood swings and most importantly my 'short-temperedness' with ease ( I do 'chill out' after a short while even if I get angry VERY fast.. but lord bless those people!! It can be hard at times :P ) . This post is all about the people who make my life great. Yes,Friends are what i'm talking about...even if you didn't guess it already regarding the cheesy lines :P Today happens to be THE friendship day , so, I thought what better day could I pick to write about th...

Love & Hate

PC: Elitedaily.com Silence woke her. As she laid on the floor, saliva drooping from her mouth, she realized it had gotten darker. She must have passed out for an hour or so. She sub-consciously touched her forehead. There was no blood this time but she knew it would bruise. The glass had hit her pretty hard, after all. Hits, Bruises and cover-ups were just another day in this household. As she got bearings of the time and place, she started to look around. Few yards away in the next room, she saw a heap of limbs passed out on the floor. Upon closer inspection, she could smell the concoction of alcohol, vomit and sweat. The view was jarring but she wasn't repulsed. The emotion that overcame her was pity. Pity at the man who was her husband. Pity at the man she once loved. As she looked back, she didn't know where exactly she she went wrong with her life. Born to a privileged family, she was smart and beautiful. No wonder, she had caught an athlete's eye. He was pre...

The little things that matter :)

We people take too many things for granted in life. We are never satisfied with the things we already have in our possession. Don't get me wrong, when I say things, I don't only mean the superficial things like house, car, dresses blah blah.... I'm using here it in the simplest sense. So that includes the good times, the bad times and all the the other things in life that you can think of at this very instant! Because even the worst things have some positive effect on us....... But us not knowing the worth of those moments is a completely different story... :P We are always very busy complaining about the things that have gone wrong or the things which we feel are 'well below the mark'. Why cant we just shut up, sit down and enjoy the awesomeness around us? Because no matter how miserable we feel our life is there's always this other person who would love to have our life , like any day..! When I say it out loud it does seem intriguing, doesn't it...

Book Review: Kafka on the Shore

I love reading. And most of the time I go through books like a termite on wood. After I sit down with a book, the book only gets closed after I get done with it. However, this was not the case here. It's safe to say that Kafka on the Shore is the strangest book I've ever laid my hands on. Haruki Murakami, for me, was always one of those writers, holding whose book made you a serious reader. So, as I venture into adulthood, I wanted to jump into more thought-provoking, serious-people books unlike my usual YA genre around which my interests circle. Looking back, I could never have fathomed what was ahead of me. Because this book tested me. It tested my patience. It tested my humanity. And most of all, it tested my ability to do something that I absolutely despised. In this case, it was finishing this godforsaken book. This book has two main protagonists. We get to see inside the head of a barely 15-year-old Kafka Tamura who has run away from home to escape his f...

thank god it's friday

I don’t know if it’s just me or time seems to be moving a lot faster these days. I simply refuse to believe that it’s been 3 weeks since I joined my new job. And it’s end of March already? No fking way. I haven’t written for a big audience in a long time. If you know me, you know that I have always loved writing but over the past year, life caught up with me. I don’t know if mid 20s for everyone is a whirlwind or if it’s because I moved to a new country or because I was finishing up my Uni, working 4 days a week at my unpaid internship and 20 hours/week nightshift at the job that paid for my life all at the same time, everything was always too much. Sorry to my friends and family that I haven’t called in a while but calling takes too much effort. It’s my least favourite method of communication. But know that I miss you and I love you. Life isn’t bad at all, just a lot. I did try to start writing again in the past year and a half. But everything I wrote was stupid. I didn’t e...

Being in love is magical. In its truest moment, it takes over your entire being. It's inexplicable yet it will be all that you want to talk about. It will feel like a breath of fresh air after you've been stuck under water for too long. No matter how I put it, it'll sound like a bunch of clichés strung together. Such is love. However, it won't always be the case of bed of roses and happy ever afters. After you've come up for air a few times, the water current will pull you down leaving you questioning if the few gulps of air somehow made your situation infinitely worse. Now you're addicted to the air, but he's left long ago. What do you do now? When you're a teenager, you're made to chase romantic fantasies and happy ever afters. But lets face it: Love is as hard to pull off as it is fulfilling. It takes too much of you when it doesn't work out. And despite having chased all-consuming love for some time in the recent past, somewhere al...

Turning Time

PC: thereadingroom.com [Published as 'There and back again' on 'The Kathmandu Post' on 24th July, 2016] As he entered the strange world, the air immediately got crisper, cooler. The fact that he had expected it didn't change how it affected him every time. The hair down his spine stood straight and he grabbed onto his jacket a little tighter. He was already out of place with his pair of jeans and blue button-down. His only hope was that the jacket shielded him against the oddity. Being transported to the new timeline was always strange. And the fact that he was always transported to the same date, July 28, 1914 even stranger. As he shuffled out the alley, he knew exactly what to expect. Just like the other times, a woman came charging down the street with a kid. He always narrowly missed stumbling into them. So today, he made a point to take a pause before entering the street. He was learning, despite the fact that he didn’t know why or how he got sent to t...

Life as we know it :)

Hey peeps! Its been long so long I wrote something! Ughh... I want to do this more often but I run out of interesting things to write about ... It'd be awesome if you guys suggest me some ideas to write about as someone very rightly quoted : "A writer is , after all, only half of his book. The other half is the reader. And from the reader the writer learns..." :) Okay, so coming back to the topic, I watched a movie recently. The movie and this blog post share the same title (You might have wondered from where I pulled off the amazing title, eh?) ;) The movie was about to people who totally dislike each other at first ....but eventually the circumstances in life make them fall in love with each other. It made me ponder. Isn't that what really happens in the real life too? I'm not just talking about falling in love only. Taking the theme of the movie in a general sense, I think, its been able to depict the exact essence of life...as I've known it... :) ...

The Knowing

Hey folks,, What's up with you guys? As of me I'm super busy with the assignments and home-works !! No matter how much effort I put....there's always another pile of assignments to complete! (sighs) Anyways.....this time I'm going to post a story I wrote ....Immature you may tell me but I seriously am improving day by day... :) ....Here's goes the story... Aryaa looked stunning in the red gown. Her face was gleaming. He couldn’t help watching her. She was moving so abruptly and graciously towards him that he nearly fainted. She looked ravishing and the pretty girl was now standing by his side. She looked at him with her big sparkly eyes. Her alluring fragrance was lifting him off his feet. She gestured him to tell him something in his ear. He absent-mindedly moved towards her. “Wake Up, Rahul” was what she said. For once he couldn’t make out what she was referring to and the next moment he opened his eyes. Rahul was already so late for college yet his mom insi...
