Morning is here. And then begins the rush and madness to deal with the day. For me it is an everyday thing. No matter how hard I try, there is always something that goes wrong. I need to hurry and in the end, at times I’ve to give up on something. In all this madness finding some quiet time becomes next to impossible! With […]
Do you remember that I told you earlier about my childhood dreams? As a child I was always asked to dream big and reach for the stars. But as time passed by, I grew up and my childhood dreams were written off being too childish. While cleaning some of my stuff today, I found a book with “Alana” scrawled over it. It wasn’t just […]
I’m back after a tiring day at work and while I wait for dinner to be prepared, I pick up my cellphone and I go to have a check on my online life. I begin by checking for social media updates! I scroll through the endless pictures on Instagram, double tapping the ones that I like. There are pictures of beautiful travel destinations, yummy […]
I made a list of resolutions I need to stick to. Eating healthy Spend less money Not saying “Yes” to everything Forget the first two things on that list, if I’d follow the third one then first two would also sorted. But who am I kidding? “Here are some chocolates. Take as many as you like.” I run as fast I can and […]
“And they lived happily ever after” How many times have we heard this sentence- yes all our childhood tales ended that way. And as a little girl I also dreamed of a happily ever after. No, no! Not the one where I’d get married to lovely Prince but the one where I’d be successful and I’d be happy. And maybe some day the prince […]
The rays of the sun which are falling on my face through my window, wake me up. I hunt for my cellphone and look at the time. It is 8 am. Saturday. Too early. I pull the drapes and see that the window is covered and I go back to sleep. The constant ringing of my phone disturbs me from my dream world again. […]
“I give up!” I scream as I write it out on a piece of paper. I don’t know what I am feeling right now. Is it anger? Is it sadness? Is it pain? Or is it all of these emotions combined? I feel like crying but the tears won’t come out. I feel like screaming out loud but I seem to have […]
There is a big event coming up and I’m so excited about it. I’m excited because I’ll get to wear pretty clothes and may be put on some make up. Most of the times I’m plain lazy to actually get dressed up and care about my looks. As long as my hair stays in place and ugly pimples don’t pop on my face, I’m okay […]
People come into our lives and only a few stay. Our twenties is when we meet a lot of temporary people. Your list of friends on Facebook may be growing, but the people who are real friends will keep decreasing. I liked the idea of friendship when we were very young- say when we were in kindergarten. Everybody was everybody’s friend. Yes, we fought and […]
“When I’ll finally begin to earn my own money, I’ll go on many trips. I want to see the world.” That was the dream. But when you grow and have a job to do, travel usually means going to office and coming back from office. Or maybe the occasional trip home. Forget seeing the world, sometimes you end up not seeing the places around […]
