Freshers'21

I have come to a point in life where I believe that the wanting part should never come to an end because after you get it, it's just gone. It's just over. The plethora of things that you looked forward to have already happened. There's no more wanting and it just feels empty. Viva la Connexon it was. I came to know about freshers when a senior told me " You have your freshers in November so do come back before November. You wouldnt want to miss it. " I had planned a two months holiday at home but shortened it just when I got the news. Forming groups, getting excited and confused at the same time, practicing and not following schedules and yet still wanting to participate we all managed to gear up for the big day. The big day happened. We all have photographers, we all have good stories to share but it's just gone. BCR feels empty now. It feels as if there's no reason to go to college anymore. The building with its leftover decorations scream out how busy we were that day, how little we got to sit and enjoy, how exhausted and happy we were. It just looks gloomy now. The endings scream out how happily tired we were, how much stressed we were about having to study and yet didn't care.  I still remember Puja di telling me despite all these years in college there's nothing she enjoyed more than her freshers. All I crave for right now is to have a time machine. Live through Bode's dance, Suchetan's song, the Proxy skit and many more that I missed out on. Someone truly said Nostalgia is denial- denial of the painful present. There's nothing more aptly said.

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 Safdarjung tomb, Humayun's Tomb, Sundar Nursery all great places bound with historical references that my father once used to teach me.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...
