Christened: ‘My Thing’

Bro it’s like Blackpink isn’t even trying. I loved the only one song off their recent album where they sampled Caprice №24 (I think?) in their background music and that shit SLAPPED. Everything else sounds like 4 talented girls from my University collabed together to record for an hour every…

The Present Scheme of Things

“I think… I’m gonna start blogging…. or something.”, she prophesizes, like this wasn’t an epiphany she’s had countless times before only to reach a characteristic high that is bound to dissolve to lack of activity on her blog for the MILLIONTH time again. Anyways, hi guys. This is Fad #…

a shout in the void

I don’t feel ready to face the world. Yes, I go to a deemed university, do pretty well for myself in a technical degree most people my age would kill for, have crystal clarity about the shiny professional career I find myself moulding everyday, have comforting, intellectually, emotionally fulfilling and…

Tell me. Can every lock be opened? Does every problem have a solution? In an all-encompassing Chinese ocean, vaster than the rest of the world, I’m flailing around to save myself from an embarrassing bottom, sinking to death. It’s a dark foreign sea, and I’m choking on air. For in…

The best plan in life is to not have a plan. If you like planning though, make sure it doesn’t involve a family of impersonators, an unknown underground basement, a morse code knowing freakish refugee, and/or knives casually laying around in your house. Ocean Vuong. I am incapable of embellishing…

HPC#37 NULLIUS IN VERBA

Red, dirtily velveted carpet. An uninteresting beige all around. I bust into the surprisingly well-lit room with clanking footwear to find two computer screens silently accompanying each other. “What is it, Saumya?”, both of the black-haired similar-built boys say at the exact same time. Both unfamiliar faces. …

Suppressed Protests

He was 13 years old then. A middle schooler. An extremely vivid, traumatic memory that peeked out ever so often from the deep recesses of his mind. So vivid, he remembered the crying, pleading way his mother tried to shield her son from the outburst. …

HPC#36

So the exam is on 27. Preparation is, I’d say, a solid 65%, I could reach 85–90 after just some intense revision which, don’t worry, I totally will. Had my classic breakfast smoothie whose recipe you’ll NEVER get cause I plan on taking it with me to the grave (but…

Hi! So I’m losing my mind! Yay. So I very funnily decided (insert goof face, silly me!) to give up any form of communication to the external world (Really the only two sites I used were Whatsapp to contact my close friends or basically just anyone I’ve met till now…
