After spending April in purgatory, I decided to get my life going again and pick up some new hobbies and skills this month. My way of working around my anxious phases has been to just be lazy and watch re-runs of favourite shows. But this time I want to try keeping myself extremely busy and…
Sustainable Gifting Ideas For Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day is on Sunday, the 8th of May. While I am not a fan of celebrating these Hallmark holidays, I do think that mothers are the most underappreciated people across the globe and hence, deserve a day of pampering and love. I decided to combine my love for being more sustainable with this holiday…
Dating Life: What I Want In A Man?
While growing up I had this long checklist of what my ‘prince charming’ will be like – tall, dark, dimples, rich, funny, etc. But over the past 3-4 years, the list has gotten a lot shorter and way more practical. The men I’ve dated have helped me identify the qualities I’d appreciate in the person…
My April Reads
My target for the rest of 2022 is to read atleast 3-4 books every month. The problem is that I usually don’t pick up a book till halfway through the month, then start panic reading books and then usually fall in love with the book and spend entire nights reading. I want to read more…
Relationships – Domestic Violence
Trigger warning – DV Two things have led to me sitting down and writing about a topic that I don’t know much about firsthand.

Disclaimer: this is a funny post and is not targetting anyone. So as a blogger, we often interact with many bloggers on a daily basis. While most interactions are pleasant and leave you feeling good about the blogging world, some are just annoying. Different kinds of blogger behaviours get me a little annoyed. I’m pretty…
Anxiety. Panic. Me.
I try breathing but my breath gets caught in my throat like my breath is trying to choke me. I try working out to distract my mind but feel myself tearing up a few minutes in. I get ready to step out to get fresh air and feel the panic rising instantly forcing me back…
A Love Letter To My Body
Dear Body, I am sorry that it has taken me this long to write this letter to you. I know you’ve been waiting a long while – eagerly at first, patiently after, and later with waning hope. It has been a bumpy journey for us. I wish it was a classic love story – girl…
The Rise of Casual Dating
When I was a teenager all I wanted to do was watch romantic films, read romantic novels, and dream about that knight in shining armor. I have become more practical in my quest for love with my dating experiences (read as: heartbreaks) but I still hope to find someone to be in a long-term relationship…
