Lazy Girl’s Guide to Clearing Exams (Yes, It’s Possible!)"

 Today’s a Big Day — I Cleared My First Prof Uni Exams!


Today, the results of my First Professional University Exams came out... and guess what? I CLEARED all the subjects!

I’m feeling so proud of myself — genuinely happy in a way I’ve only felt during a few big moments: when I passed my 10th and 12th grades, when I cleared NEET, and when I got admission into my college.

As an overthinking, ultra-sensitive girl, moments like these hit differently. Seriously, it’s pure serotonin!


Looking back, I realize one thing: striving for perfection and my fear of failure literally dragged me (sometimes kicking and screaming) toward achieving my goals.

However, there’s one thing I need to fix — expecting too much from myself. Yes, it pushes me forward, but sometimes, it also drains me faster than my phone battery at 2% with no charger around.


Here’s a lesson life (and multiple mental breakdowns) taught me:

You don’t need to stress yourself out to achieve your goals.

Stay calm. Be systematic. Trust the process.

Nothing — seriously, nothing — is impossible.


And listen, I’m not some genius student who understands everything in one go. Nope. If I learn, I get it. That’s it.

So, if you’re like me — an "ordinary" student who feels like they need to put in triple the effort just to survive academics — push harder.

Not everyone has the same IQ level or memory grasping power, and that’s perfectly okay.


If you need to revise something 100 times, do it 100 times.

Prioritize your goals over distractions. Period.


And speaking of distractions… hello, my old frenemies: laziness and procrastination!

I'm that student who can procrastinate doing procrastination itself. And believe me, it makes life 10x harder.

It’s tough — I know — but it’s better not to procrastinate. Your future self will send you a box of chocolates as a thank you gift (well, at least mentally).


There will always be things — and sometimes even people — trying to pull you backward.

Toss all those distractions into the trash bin. (Don’t forget to empty the bin too.)


Because trust me, once you taste the happiness that comes from your own hard work and success — there’s no going back.

You’ll be addicted to growth, to pride, to your own journey.


Work hard, stay consistent, and celebrate every tiny win.

You’re doing better than you think.

Chickenpox Diaries: 19 Days of Forced “Me-Time”

  Everything happens for a reason, right? Well, life just gave me 19 days of chickenpox leave, and trust me—it was not the kind of vacation anyone would ask for. The first 4 days? Literal hell. Couldn’t even sip water without wincing, throat burning like fire, body screaming with pain. To top it off—full-time isolation in my room. 24×7. I used to check the mirror every day, hoping the blisters would heal fast. But honestly, though I always had clear skin, I didn’t even get sad about the “connect-the-dots puzzle” on my face. My only prayer was to get rid of the throat pain and weakness. And don’t even get me started on the bland food—life had lost all taste. From day 5, things started getting better—pain faded, blisters began drying, and I could finally feel human again. But while I was fighting pox in my room, my class was living in a mini drama series. I left on a Monday after the 2nd period (two blisters + fever + body ache gave me away), and the very next day panic spread becaus...

"Silence Isn’t the Absence of Words; It’s the Presence of Truth"

Ever felt that weird shift when someone you trusted suddenly starts acting different? That quiet change, no explanations—just distance. It’s in moments like these that some truths hit hardest.  First of all, the biggest mistake some of us make (yes, me too): trusting friends blindly. Even when our inner sense knows that at some point, they might walk away, we still fall into that trap. Why? Because we’re human. It’s natural. And it’s fine too. But eventually… it affects us. Mentally, emotionally, and psychologically. Especially when you’re the one who gets affected by others’ actions—while they walk around acting cold and unapologetic. It’s honestly one of the worst experiences someone can go through. And I think, at some point in life, everyone goes through this phase. You understand people better through these incidents. And learn that giving the wrong people your time, energy, and emotions will only drain you. What annoys the most is when people start playing the victim card lik...

Flashmob, Fort & Fake Studying – A Saturday Saga

 Yesterday was one rollercoaster of a Saturday. So our toxicology sir had told us earlier that we’d be doing a flashmob for Anti-Tobacco Day. Yes, you read that right — a flashmob. In public. Dancing. Us. Lol Practice started the day before the actual event. Very on brand for us. Thankfully, heavy rain gifted us a leave on Friday — bless the skies. We aren't professional dancers or anything, but we’ve got one thing in common: the willpower to pull off whatever chaos we sign up for. Our rehearsals were basically just us roasting each other, laughing at wrong steps, and doing the signature “wait, what comes after this move?” head tilt. Come Saturday morning — 9 AM sharp — we reached Fort. There were police officers, excise officers, and students from another institute, all geared up and lined up neatly with placards. We stood with our banners, acting all serious for a minute. Then came the speeches. But the real chaos? When they suddenly announced “Now, the flashmob!” BROOO. Panic mo...
