Writing Escapades


Have you ever felt like writing so much that you feel like penning down every single thought you feel? It's almost like there is nothing much important to say, nothing new that you can add to their tale, yet all you wish every now and then is to simply hold a pen and keep writing like there exists no tomorrow, even if your writings make no sense. 

It's moments like these that make me doubt the potential possibilities of discipline as pen simply seems to be its own driver in this case. Although for the longest time, it keeps reminding of my creative non-fiction lectures when our Professor would correctly insist how it is meant for our readers and self musings can often just be saved for dear diaries and not bothered with publication. However, these days, after one of my longest deliberate writing breaks, blog weirdly feels like the safest escape. 

Even if my capacities hardly count these days and productivity still lingers close over a zero, writing feels like the biggest liberation. As I am still scared to find my paths to relearning story-telling, long held dream feels like a long lost battle, these moments of writing remains my happiest on this path to healing and self-discovery. 

It often makes me wonder if I am simply saying too much or opening up so much, for once scared of my own vulnerabilities; yet doesn't feel like stopping and still feel like posting. If any of them makes any sense to another soul is beyond my current contemplation but just feel like writing that's all I know. 

PS - 
Already feels like the most lamest and useless piece but who cares. Sorry but I guess you gotta excuse me for a little more.

A day full of birthdays

Date - 20/09/2017 Today was Deepika Di's, Aizhan Aappa's and Anu Manhotra Ma'am's birthday.  Deepika Di was my senior in Shoolini. She was one of the seniors I have always admired and looked upto. Wishing her a happy birthday was one of the first things I did today. She is intelligent, confident, classy, beautiful, helpful and a sweetheart. I haven't known her for a very long time but it has been a great experience to know her.  I got to know about Aappa's birthday through facebook. I wasn't sure what to do. I was thinking about it all day. I had just planned to gift her a small choco pie which I had but then did not felt like gifting that alone.  I just thought that probably a letter with some birthday wishes would seem nice. I don't have any clues about Kazakh so I took a little help from Google.  I just wrote happy birthday in Kazakh and the entire message was in English. I also wrote Happy birthday in Hindi in the end. She was very happy and delight...

Aizhan Aapa

Date -07/09/2017 Aizhan Aapa is my first Friend here, besides Sujin Onni(my mentor). Actually her name is Aizhan but she is elder to me so I call her Aizhan Aapa. We both like it that way. Aizhan Appa is from Kazistan and is majoring in Korean language here. It is her second year here and she will be here for two more years. Apart from studies, she also works as an assistant in the dormitory office on alternative days here. Today I went for an evening walk with her. I always enjoy talking to her and spending some time with her. She is friendly, helpful and sweet. A lot of times when we are stuck with something or don't know how to do something in the dormitory she always tries to help her out. One day we got locked outside our room because all of us had forgotten our cards inside. Even on that day, she opened the door for us with the master card with a polite caution not to repeat the same mistake again. She is a huge fan of Indian movies especially Shah Rukh Khan. Today we tal...

Nirbhaya case

It was an incident that shocked the nation. We couldn't save her but Justice was the least that we wanted for her. Today after 4 years the justice has been served. The 4 convicts of Delhi Gangrape have been sentenced to be hanged till death. It has come as a relief and we hope it sets an example for others. But isn't Justice delayed Justice denied ? Doesn't it also points out the loop holes in our system ? It does suggest that we need to make better laws, something that instills confidence in the hearts of civilians and fear in the minds of criminals. We need to restore the faith of general masses in our judicial system. When so many people came out on the roads to protest, there was a wave of anger and frustration that we saw. We hoped that maybe things will change but what followed was unfortunate. Crimes are just becoming more and more common. Laws have become a joke and the Police and our Judicial System is mocked by these criminals. The question is when will th...
