"Keep being you, always. 💯"

 I went through something that had me feeling like I was stuck in a plot twist.

So, I was super close to one of my friends—like, meme-sharing, inside-jokes level of close. And then... poof... she just stopped texting.

Single grey tick after single grey tick. No explanation. No “Hey, I’m busy.” Just silence.


And what made it worse? She was still chatting with everyone else. But, you know, I was left in the chat's dark corner.


Naturally, I turned into an overthinking machine: “Did I send a weird meme?” “Did I accidentally say something off?” “I swear I didn’t ghost her first!”


It was exhausting. So, I went to my mom for some wisdom. And she said, “Whatever happens, don’t change who you are. Just talk to her like nothing happened. That’s how you grow.”

(Thanks, mom, for being the real MVP.)


So, I did what any emotionally drained person would do—I dove into hobbies. Watched Movies, learned baking on my own, scribbled in my journal, ate snacks... you know, the usual healing routine. Slowly, I got back to my groove.


Then, guess what? She came back. Like nothing ever happened.

And said sorry.

Now, I don’t know if I should be happy or like... did I mess up somehow?

But, nah, it wasn’t me. I realized, ghosting is just part of life. It’s like getting an “unsent message” from the universe.


So, yeah, life’s weird like that. People will come and go, and sometimes they leave without explanation—but guess what? It’s okay. You’re still gonna be fine.




Realization:


People will ghost, glitch, and come back like an old Wi-Fi connection.

But whatever happens—stay true to you. Keep doing your thing.

 Don’t let someone’s temporary silence dim your permanent vibe.

And if they apologize? Great. If not? Still, you’re killing it.

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...
