My Sweet Nani

So today I made a sketch of my nani. I think she’s the purest, loveliest human being on the planet. Both my nana and my nani actually are the sweetest people. A couple of years ago, my nani got a clot in her brain, and they removed it, but somehow the surgery left her with…

New Job

My dairy entry a few months ago: I feel like I’ve matured way more than what a mere 4 month period would normally allow. I don’t know. Maybe it’s the realization that things won’t always be perfect. Things won’t always be rosy. You will fall way deeper than you ever have, and you WILL have…

Some quick updates about my life right now

Hi guys. I don’t know if you guys still remember me. I used to be regular. Now its just impossible to be regular. Things have changed since I was here last. So many things. I’ve started working. And I’m happy. I’m tired most of the time. But I’m happy. To be working, to be earning,…

It’s Sweet and Blissful

We’re driving towards my native place in Karnataka and dad’s saying something to my brother about where to stop for petrol… I try to pay attention, but can’t, I’m feeling sleepy I realise I don’t have to worry about it. My eyes are doing that slow-mo opening and closing thing, and I’m slowly falling asleep…

My Graduation Ceremony

So, about today. It was the best day ever. Thank you God. Thank you so very much. Two things happened. I passed MA sem one examination (which shouldn’t be such a big deal, but it somehow is). And two, we were made to feel so special by the college. All of my classmates weren’t present….

I Just Remembered Something

My nani (grandma) used to say this a lot when my brother and I were around two or three years old and at that time we couldn’t understand what she was saying. Later, when I grew up a little and pondered on it, I finally understood what she meant. And I’m glad that I’ve been…

Some Random Facts about Today

So today I’d worn a saree. Almost everyone who saw me in the function complimented me. It felt so nice (obviously). It was also such a confidence booster as I’ve had body image issue for quite some time now (nothing major, just a slight dissatisfaction with how I look sometimes). I met everyone, talked and…

How Much is Too Much?

Working hard is good. It gives you a purpose, a direction, a reason to live and a hope towards a better future. But stress? Bad. Thinking about work all day? Bad. Best thing – Work hard. But don’t take tension. Be chill. Important thing: don’t over do it. Life is too big, and these small…

A Little Bit of Thinking…

I’m a realist. I don’t have big dreams or ambitions. But I do have hopes. I have faith that something good will happen, something good ought to happen. Good things happen to good people. “Aim for the sky, you’ll reach the roof.” How about doing your own thing, continuously doing what makes you happy and…

To The Girl in 9th Standard

Hang in there. You’re destined for greater things. Bigger and better things. And these problems of yours will seem small. Yes, darling, they do seem to encompass your whole life right now. As if your life depends on being friends with the cool group. As if there’s definitely something wrong with you because the pretty…

Europe, And Other Things

I think I’ve lost it. The will to write. I’m out of ideas. I cannot think of anything. And that’s why I’ve been away from blogging for so long. How long has it been? More than five months, maybe. Anyway, since there’s nothing I feel like writing, I’ll share these pictures with you. Yes, it’s…

New Watercolour paintings!

I like last one the best! What about you? Also, if you have any suggestions as to what I should do to improve my painting, or if there’s something I didn’t do properly, please do tell me! 🙂 Also, have a nice day! 😀 sk
