“Take a deep breath. Breathe in, breathe out!” “It is going to be okay” No, that isn’t any of my friends or a family member consoling me. Its me, Alana talking to myself like I always do! I’ve a job interview and I’m freaking out. I stayed up all night to prepare for the interview and I felt pretty confident or so I […]
I feel that I’m on top of the world. The dazzling lights, the beautiful floral arrangements, the stage and not to forget the large number of people who are here today. They are all here for me. I hear my name being called out and I stand up to walk towards the stage. I’m wearing a beautiful designer dress. A diamond necklace and matching earrings […]
January is over? Already? I was thinking that 2016 was a year that went by really fast and now it looks like 2017 is proving me wrong. January is one of my favourite months. Reasons? It is the first month of the year, thus marking a new beginning. January started off in a pleasant way for me in Mangalore with my family. I am not […]
I hear the chirping of birds as open my eyes when the first rays of the morning sun greet me. I wake up. It definitely is a good morning. As I walk, the wind blows ever so gently carrying with it the fragrance of the freshly bloomed flowers. There is a nip in the air.

From the time I was a little girl, I have loved flowers. They always mesmerize me. The various colours, shapes and sizes make me realize the beauty that nature is.

From the time I was a little girl, I’ve got a lot of dreams. No no, not the random ones that I get at night when I am running around to no where in particular and talking things that I don’t remember about. I am talking of those dreams, my ambitions. I want to write all of them, all the things that I dream of […]
Each morning when you wake up, and those rays of the morning sun fall on your face, do you realize how lucky you are to be alive? And when you see how beautiful the day is, and how lovely it is to listen to the voices of your loved ones, and when the delicious smell of the food that is being cooked in the kitchen […]
“Wake me up when September ends!” And yes I’ve to wake up now! I can’t believe that it is October already! How did all these months go by? I have no clue. And I haven’t written a month in rewind post for a while now, which makes it a little difficult for me to sit back and think what I did during all these months. […]
Do you remember the time when you were at home, may be when you were in school or college? You were bored of staying at home. You wanted to go to a new city, to be independent, to live by yourself!
