The Medical Compartment

So the day begins with physiology practical exam and so does the beginning of the trip. The long awaited solo trip. I can't emphasise how much alone time I needed to introspect on what's happening in my life. The day would remain iconic forever. I was going away from college for a good one month vacation so I ensured on playing TT for the last one hour. I boarded Rajdhani and was all set to experience the lavishness of First Class for the very first time and shit my co-passengers were all old people. Lol I had thought of probably meeting the love of my life but whatever. But believe me I can't thank my fate enough. That destined compartment. It was like the entire world had conspired for us four to meet. The couple were Retired Aiims Delhi physiology professors. They shared about their love story which blossomed despite the PC-NJ age difference back then. We had a good laugh criticizing the system which we were a part of. They analysed the syllabus and all and told me how to efficiently study and understood the amount of torture the colleges were bestowing upon us. The funniest part she had never heard about DP ( Debasish Pramanik). Then came Asansol and my jethu's friend boarded the train. 1989 NRS batch. Good old times. Academic building was just made. There were two fests every year. Exams were still the same. The senior junior relationship was better. The hierarchy was a little less. Good old times. I had a lot of good sleep after a long time. 

Now coming to my flight to Baroda. The woman sitting next to me was a Radiologist. God Grace my luck!!

Growth

You can't feel how far you have come until you look back once in a while. You can't for sure quantify growth but you can really see the difference. October really made me see into my personal growth this month. The month started with going to Delhi all by myself to see places which I had gone to in my childhood. Re-visiting all the places to which lot of good memories were associated with. Safdarjung tomb, Humayun's Tomb, Sundar Nursery all great places bound with historical references that my father once used to teach me. Going all the way in public transports that too in Delhi felt a little scary until and unless it was done especially with my tendency to doze off at places. But yep I managed to keep myself awake and cautious and walk and see and go and meet and everyhing I had thought about doing. Then comes the Baroda part. The homecoming started on a sad note with my mother and brother in the hospital and the so long awaited trip getting cancelled but then it was all g...

Life lately

This is kind of a personal diary entry of the last few weeks. So I would be starting with the fact that yes these last few weeks have been the best time of this year. Last year this same time I was so heartbroken, I was so not in the right mind, right mood but it's true everything passes, sooner or later everything does. And it did. Probably the best part of 2024 happened and we all know good things involve people. I had one of the nicest Durga Pooja after such a long time. Nobody had got sick, no dengue, no guy problems, complete peace of mind. I dressed up nicely, ate good food, had one of the best times teasing my brother and getting teased by him. I had one of the nicest conversations with my friend who is not my age but we trauma bonded and it just made me realise why I am this kind of person a little more intensely. I was even talking to a guy for the past few weeks and wow I have felt inspired and motivated after such a long time. I even fixed my sleep schedule and study sch...

Hormonally Possessed

When does loneliness really hit ? Is it just before going to sleep, or while travelling by train or while suddenly watching something which you crave for and yet can't get. I don't know why it has been like this but loneliness feels like a companion that's resting on my shoulder as I try to cope up with the day. I might be functioning at high productivity but still there's some part of me that I realise isn't getting satisfaction from the grill. I need to find a new coping mechanism. Somehow what has worked for so many months isn't working out at the moment. I don't know maybe I am not well thays why, or maybe it's just something I need to detox from. I was just crying out of the blue, I even insisted my best friend to let's open a dating app. I was legit feeling the absence of something I craved and at the same time didn't want.  This is all I felt on Saturday. No wonder I got my period. It all makes sense. Hormonally possessed I was. It started...
