quagmire, with no sign of settle

I made a very complex and complicated decision to stray from where I thought I was heading. A lot of sleepless nights, a convoluted mind. I'm heading towards a road unsullied and I'm trying my best to make sure it ends well. Taking a major external exam on May 2022 and preparations have taken wheels.…

Looking Over Her Back

She sat at the corner of the terrain. Calm by the company of a stranger that she found safety in. Time flowed like water in the creek, she lost track. It was too hard to hold on to time. It escalated to peaks and nothingness in venial. She sat herself in a constant trance buried…

Fibonacci Sequence: Med Gala 2019

I just think that right at this point in my life, it only gets better and far more pleasant. If you take the previous two years of my life, it would sum up to right where I stand now. For as long as I'm able to recall, I (probably most of my friends too) have…

No Promises Left Unfulfilled

A fundamental responsibility of a blogger would be to acknowledge the start and end of a particular year for the start signifies brand new ideas and its manifestation. End of year tells a lot about how she/he has achieved apropos to the promises they've made to adhere to. How much of books per annum have…

Prologue; What Better Way to End?

Recall that we were watching Dangal at Cochin International Airport? We didn't get to finish it and were left with 50 minutes of the remaining movie. We decided to finish it off in the flight. Did that happen? No. We all got really tired as soon as we took our seats. I couldn't decide if…

Day 28: Au Revoir, India.

I think you'd know what this post is going to be about. Another 'goodbye'. We had a late night last night, packing our stuff and trying to make sure our baggage's didn't exceed allowed weightage. I called up the reception asking if they have any way of us getting a rough estimation of our bag…

Day 27: Connoisseurs of Cochin

It's here. It's finally here. Our last destination in India. We leave Alleppey for Cochin. I woke up to my own body clock waking me up vigorously saying, "it's your last day here what are you doing sleeping?! Wake up! Explore! Don't regret!". So I did. To this amazing view. The temperature was just right.…

Day 26: Alping Rain in Alleppey

Thunderstorms. Heavy showers. Floods. The whole package was waiting for us in Alleppey or Allapuzha. That's sad because even London, the land of heavy coulds, rain and cold was having some sunshine. Today is also a day full of animal encounters. I'll tell you why. I was up by 5.30am, wanting to catch the sunrise…

Day 25: Taking All of Thekkady

I woke up to another cold room. Unable to escape from the cocoons of the bed sheet that still didn't suffice my cold intolerance. Even the windows were misty and the floor, piercing cold. Breakfast was nice. This time, we had lemon rice and some weird kulcha-like parotha. It was nice. I loved it! Today's…

Day 24: 8 Hour Car Ride to Munnar

I couldn't sleep well last night. Woke up three times to moments of wanting to just cripple and disappear into nothingness from the cold. My legs were numb. My hands were unmovable but I am conscious. Sleep paralysis? It can't be. I turned to look at Pishan. She was sleeping so peacefully. I contemplated on…
