I know, I know, I have been missing for months and months…
But here I am sharing something (and someone) extremely close to my heart. RONIT.
I don't know when and how things between the two school friends got so close we, now, have decided to spend the rest of our lives together.
It all started with a WhatsApp message that led to a misunderstanding…that, in turn, led to a sincere (at least that's what I thought it was) apology last year.
Ronit and I got closer on the night of 30th April, 2023. SPOILER ALERT- To everyone thinking, "Aww, school romance. So cute". We haven't yet met each other.
We had been talking to each other on video calls, and that is how we knew that it wasn't just physical but something deeper.
That idiot fell for me on the last night of April last year (2023). However, my feelings for him were as tiny as an ant in the giant hall.
How we started talking for 6-7 hours a day, sharing all unimportant details is something that neither of us is unaware of, but why we did that is something both of us now know.
I know it's difficult to digest video calls can make someone fall so hard. Trust me it can, provided you see the generosity in the eyes of the other from the rectangular screen.
Fast forward to 8th July 2023, I finally proposed to that idiot. I knew I had to take that initiative because he would never do it. (My mistake, I friend-zoned him)
WE ARE TOGETHER NOW.
He is undoubtedly the most caring, understanding (a little stubborn) and genuine person I have met. Crazy. Yes. Impulsive. Oh big yes. But loving and sincere.
Mostly on my nerves, but that idiot is the love of my life.
Self-love, a quest so dazzling,
A moment to accept oneself in all its glory.
To sway with the clouds and chant in the moonlight,
Discover moments of joy and chase away sadness.
It's an opportunity to be fearless, bold and brave.
To honour every aspect of who I am;
To experience life with elegance and comfort,
And feel the bliss of ease.
More time, more chance to grow;
Feed my desires and allow my spirits to flow.
Adore and appreciate the uniqueness;
Be the creator of my destiny.
And while I walk through life all alone,
Learn to trust and know your worth.
Be my true companion and supporter;
Allow all my hidden emotions to soar.
Acknowledge imperfections, wounds, and grief;
Let me turn them into a gorgeous garland.
Of memories that sculpt and mould,
The person I am and the story I have been told.
Embrace every moment with enthusiasm and spirit.
Relish every experience with love and learning.
Celebrating oneself is a treasure, an enormous fortune;
An opportunity to gain courage and strength.
Your Tumblr blog came up in my search query on Google search engine - about doing an internship in Mauritius with YUVA. Could you please tell me about this experience? I am interested in it.
Hey there,
I have had a great experience with the YUVA Team. I would encourage you to go for it.
Gone are the days, but let me share some bits and pieces of what happened some days back…Wait…the best days of the past four years.
Now that I'm gone back to my mundane life, and just as I was about to type the next word of my thesis, I just realised that there is something that needs to be written before that, AN ODE TO THOSE FOUR FUCKING FANTASTIC DAYS!!! Those crazy, rollercoaster, wounding, unexpected, speeding four days. Trust me when I say I didn't expect to meet so many people and, most importantly, be that comfortable (thanks to Whiskey and Vodka). Undoubtedly, I'm an extrovert, but to this extent, it was astounding for me as well.
I went to Gurgaon to have fun, try new things, meet people, and, you know, chill, basically taking a small break. But not in my wildest dreams did I expect to try so many new things.
I have never been a fan of adventure sports. It was definitely not there on my list of to-dos, but it got crazy. Bowling, nope, not at all. What's the fun in that, I used to think? But now I have a whole different mindset. It is fun when you're with friends, miss those stubborn pins and fall. I owe a lot to everyone there for making everything so much fun and exciting.
The randomness of vlogging, eating street food, trying to start the fire, rolls of Khan Chacha and most shocking, shopping, everything was so unpredictable that it feels like normal as if there was some level of comfort in doing all these things. Think about it, would you prefer shopping with friends you just met? The answer is NO, but we did that as well and so seamlessly. The drunk and high me met some exciting people and carried on some nonsensical conversations with them.
In those four days, we laughed like a drain, drank like there was no tomorrow and made friends we probably will never meet but indeed never forget. Those four days were way better than the past four years I spent in Jaipur.
Looking forward to another short vacation…
Hey Tumbs,
No sooner did I realise that the best time I spent in the day was with myself. Lo and behold with your girl! Just me, on the terrace, my AirPods, and sometimes, two kittens. There is no one to judge or frown. It's just me dancing my way to the best version of myself.
I soon realised this whatever I perceive of people is solely based on how they treat me. If they are good, I'm good. But certain things stay with me, which are said by people who make a very different image of me in the beginning. And there are two such persons. There are mixed emotions in my heart for them. Girls truly can be bitches, but the good thing is that I have more people in my life who love me dearly.
Counting all the blessings and grateful for all the love showered. It's a happy day. Hope it continues to be one.
There are many things that I wish to write about here. My anxieties, insomnia, personal relationships…but all I come up with when I start typing is cluttered…
Ok, bear with me here….There are some things I learned this year which should have acquired way before in my life. First and foremost, I started to enjoy my own time. Going out to cafes alone, exploring places and talking to new people (even though it bothers them) is so much fun. Second to it comes the family time that is full of laughter, craziness and, of course, fights. The third is perseverance, which I'm still working on is really crucial when it comes to work-life balance, friendships, and so much more. And more is yet to come. The year is not over. And believe me, I shall take a break every now and then but will surely be back with more rants.
