The Turning Point

Dear A*****a, Chill really, remember why you went through such a bad phrase last year. Remember why you almost went into clinical depression. Remember what almost wrecked you last year. It was not the moot, it was the importance you attached to this not so significant event. It was the way you got worked up for nothing. I know this means a lot to you, I know you have to prove a lot to a lot of people, but you have to remain level- headed. Because, when you are calm you can conquer the world. Work hard, work your ass off. Give it  your 200% , but don't let it get to your head. Remember whatever happens it is not the end of the world. You can come back from a 11 rank, you will get what you deserve. Just be the best version of yourself.  Don't do this for the wrong reasons, do this for the right reasons, do this because you want to and not because you have to. I know your destination is to get a great rank, but don't forget to enjoy and learn from the journey.  Keep ...

I know this is the last thing you want to hear today, but count your blessings and be happy. In know, this week is really hard you  are sick and you feel weak and your uterus is also hell-bent on making your life harder but remember like everything even this shall pass. I know, you feel like you have bitten more than you have chewed, I know you are scared about this semester; you donot want your CGPA to drop further, you want to do moots and win them . But, you feel you can't . Stop doing this to yourself. Give yourself a break, don't be so hard on yourself. Enjoy life, read books, daydream about S*****p. Chill, be happy and focus on the now and do your best and leave the rest( not to anybody).

Very recently I was posed with an interesting dilemma whether to believe in God or any form of Supernatural power or not. I have stopped believing in organised religion since I was almost 11 or 12. It started off because I hated going to the mosque or performing namaz, I could not understand Arabic and the whole fanaticism attached to it annoys me to no extent. At think at this juncture, it becomes important for me to clarify some points; I belong to this really close-knit and small group under Shia sect called Bohra Muslims. Generally, our community is considered pretty progressive according to Islamic as well as Indian standard but it is a business community and as with very thing else we even managed to monetize religion as well. The lavish lifestyle enjoyed by our religious leaders and their demand for an exorbitant amount of money was a crucial factor which alienated me from my own religion.  Plus the people with whom I have to live do not help either. I come from a tier tw...

I just finished watching all the three seasons of the show plus the follow-up movie based on the character Veronica Mars, and I love it. Veronica Mars,the protagnist is a high school student who helps her father (who is a Private detective) solve cases. She also helps her classmates using her sleuthing skill. Well, as far as the High School drama is concered the show is like a less bitcher and glamourous version of Gossip Girl . It is a little dark at places and the picturization reminds of Alferd Hitchcock movies. It is a great and engaging show, which has something for almost everyone. However, I love the show for it main character, i.e. Veronica Mars. She is the most badass person I have come across on Television. She is smart, sassy, courageous and confident. Her wisecracks and humourous exchange with her father are the best parts of the show for me. Well, as the title suggests I am somewhat smitten with her character and relate a lot with her and have learnt a lot from her...

Now, I know why people are so crazy about Hemingway’s writing. It is just so powerful, and the most intriguing part is you can’t tell why is so beautiful and moving.  The writing is so simple, it is the way I write, yet it just leaves you breathless; so familiar yet so stunning.  Maybe it is the vivid description or may be it the way the characters are developed I can’t tell what has left me so impressed, but I know one thing this book has changed my life. And the weirdest part is that the book I just finished, Farewell to the Arms, it is set in a completely different time, an era which is unknown to me. The central characters and I share nothing in common yet I know how they feel, I can empathize with them. Now, for someone who reads as much as I do, people might wonder don’t I get this feeling quite often for characters  who are also placed very differently than I am. Well, yes and no. Yes, I do and no because it is not the same. Yes, I feel mortified with Lizzie ...

Well, I think it is about time I revamp my blog. There are a cuple of reasons for this- to begin with I am not a teenager anymore I just turned 20 so the blog desperately needs a name change. Plus I started this blog when I was really young with really no clear motive in mind . Over the past two years it has become more like my online journal, but a very ill documented one at that. I become activee on it when I feel like and leave it at the drop of the hat. My lack of commitment to this blog is something which I am really ashamed off, I know I have no readership so I slack off more and thus begins the vicious cycle. I did not start this blog for the readership but then again I don't really remember why did I ever start it in the first place. I remember I always thought ( and still do) that I was a good writer  and ws capable of producing something that the world would be inerested in reading. But, now I do realize that though I am a good  writer but there are better writers...

I will come back to you every time, No matter what you say or do or not do I will come to you I will come back to you every time, In spite of all the pain and disappointments and emptiness   I will come to you I will come back to you every time , Against my better judgment or of my family and friends I will come to you I will come to you every time, Not because I have no one else or no place else to be But because  in spite of everything I will always love you I will always come to you
