21st of February

I was brushing my hair when the phone beeped. It was from a new tinder match. After two messages, we were ready to meet. First, let us name this guy number 2. Now let’s go 10 minutes back….
Sitting alone in a PG room with nothing to do, I thought about having a cup of coffee in the nearest CCD. I was getting ready when this guy pings me. He evidently lives in the same locality and was coming back to his home. Should I go with a stranger I know nothing about? We haven’t talked also. I heard Delhi guys are bad, what if…….
Let’s go back 24 hours….
I just reach my room and start making Wai-wai. I have been chatting with this guy for two days. This is guy number 1. After a wedding party, he calls me up. He is elder than me and is also a tinder guy. Conversations continue till 2 AM. We decide to meet the next day if  possible….
In the morning….
Staying in a room for the whole day and having nothing to do seems like a punishment even my enemy shouldn’t get. Having wasted a lot of MB seeing videos on Youtube, I am a mess. Why can’t I just keep sleeping???
I have to literally put on the relax melodies app to calm my mind’s Atlantic ocean. Isn’t everything in body made of fluid? No books to read, no person to talk to, no music on my phone, just a travel magazine to make things worse. Should I go out? Will there be road blockages by the jat protestors? So many questions,uffff!
I never knew about the word ‘sapiosexual’ but I am sexually attracted to people who can give me knowledge. Or else, be tall, dark and handsome.
Guy number 1 was someone who could make me think. I loved it but the problem was we couldn’t meet. This is what happens when you expect a lot then everything goes bam!!!
Present …
Oh ! this is a huge car , I say in my mind as I proceed to enter his car. I was not dressed to meet a guy, but who cares. Instead of the nearby park CCD, he tells me he will take me to the Chankaya Puri CCD. We went only to find that there was no parking space. We proceeded towards Lodhi Tomb and then went to the CCD nearby.
I don’t know what it is with Delhi people and being stylish. Seriously,I have no qualms in anyone being sexy and stylish but dude, not everyone’s life revolve around what to wear or what not to wear. One just needs to feel comfortable and true.
Sometimes being 24 is nice. You no longer take things personally even if the other person literally indicates you to take things personally and change. Am I getting old, that too in an exponential rate?
As I make a cup of tea, I ponder about the differences in human nature. Everyone is unique and below that show-off and rough attitude there exists a beautiful human soul. This soul wants the same things love, care, appreciation and respect. Someone to share their feelings. No one wants to utter a curse at anyone. The city makes you this as you try to fit in. Fight it!!!

Role model in the form of grandma

 Life gives us all the ingredients to go ahead. Everyday a new lesson and experience is in store. From all that we learn, we become what and who we want to be. But sometimes, this life can fall short of teaching us everything. That is when we go back to our roots, our family. Every family member have their own insights to offer. But few among them outshine in our heart and mind that we start to look up to them for every answer. They are the pillar to support us, to lean on at times. They are the ones who watch our back. They are the role models of our life. I should consider myself lucky to have 2 such inspiring persons, my grandparents. If it ever comes down to choosing, I can say that my grandmother has a larger share of contribution. From the time I can remember, she has always been my go-to person. Don't we all give in to the human tendency to ignore the ones who matter the most and devote our energy to the ones who neither deserve it nor has ever tried to earn it? Afte

Visit to a waterfall

A trip to a place where nature is in full glory is always refreshing particularly when it is a getaway for the week end. Getting to such a getaway also demands a bit of work. Early on a Saturday, I and my friends, set out on our trip towards athirapally waterfalls. It is situated in the Thrissur district of Kerela. From Kottayam, it is nearly a five hour long journey. Thankfully, one of our classmates hailed from the area and hence things turned out to be smooth. Our hostel is located at Athirampuzha near Mahatma Gandhi University which is on the outskirts of Kottayam town. I am always in a dilemma whether this place is a town or village. There is a university and a medical college nearby, but the surroundings are fields and tree gardens we took a bus to Kerela state transport depot and got into a Thrissur bound bus. The bus drivers here are very smart. The roads are narrow and full of bends; still they drive very fast, often giving jerks to the passengers. We passed through Kottayam

BEAUTY

The very word ‘Beauty’ stirs a lot of commotion within us .There exists strange and challenging opinions about this topic. My grandmother would give its definition as ‘Truth is beauty’. But is this it? Do we tend to see beauty in truth? John Keats in a poem which we all must have read said, ‘A thing of beauty is a joy forever.’ The dictionary tells us that a thing of beauty is a thing which arouses our admiration, to which something in us responds with approval and delight as soon as our eyes behold it Do here comes the famous adage, ‘Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder’. So is beauty really lives in the eyes of the beholder or there is something more than it meets the eyes stating beauty as a relative term is less dangerous when compared to truth  or virtue. Hence, something beautiful to my eyes may not be beautiful to others .I find the blooming of the tender  leaves or a small bird trying to such  the nectar out of the flowers as beautiful but my sister may not. So, how
