"RSBK lab > boring lectures any day"

 So yeah... I’m in the middle of some kind of emotional spiral. Can’t even label it. It's not exactly sadness, not exactly stress—just a weird, blank feeling.


Second Prof has officially entered the chat, and let me tell you—it’s strange. Not what I imagined. Definitely not what I romanticized during First Prof.


Classes?

Dry.

Energy?

Low.

Vibes?

Missing in action.

Everyone's just dragging themselves to class like zombies, scared the teacher might ask something. And then we all… just nap. Mentally or physically. Pick your mode.


Homesickness?

Oh, she’s back. And stronger than ever. Especially during those boring lecture hours when your mind decides to fly back home for a mini vacation.


Now, coming to the only silver lining of the week—RSBK lab on Tuesdays.


Yes, you read that right. Every Tuesday, as part of our Rasa Shastra non-lecture activity, we step into the lab to actually do something instead of just surviving on words and slides.

So far, we’ve had only three Tuesdays, but they were surprisingly fun.


We made:


Aadraka Svarasa (ginger juice)—spicy but spicy in a good way.


Nimba Kalka (neem paste)—bitter truths included.


Lashuna Kalka (garlic paste)—hello, stinkfest.



And guess what?

We’re not using any fancy machines. We’re out there grinding it all with a good ol’ traditional stone grinder—giving main character energy while being lowkey exhausted.


But honestly, that lab time is the only time something feels alive here.


Today was also our Nidana teacher's last class.

She resigned.

We didn’t really have any strong connection with her since we’re new to this year, but still... change is change. And it adds to the "what is even happening" vibe of this phase.


So yeah, I’m currently in my “nothing feels right” era.

I don't know what’s waiting for us in the coming weeks, but I hope it's better than this emotionally blah zone.


If you're feeling the same, trust me—you’re not alone.



Tiny takeaway:

Not every phase will be colorful or exciting. Some phases are just… meh. And that’s okay too.

But hey, at least we have Tuesdays and garlic paste.

“This is your sign: being you is more than enough.”

 If you were the quiet kid growing up—the one who avoided group photos, spoke in whispers, and got asked “Why are you always so serious?”—then congratulations, we might be long-lost twins. See, being an introvert isn’t just a personality type. It’s a full-time job. Especially when society hands out badges of honor to the loudest kid in class and treats silence like a social disease. As a kid, people were always like, "Why doesn't she smile more?"—and clearly, none of them had ever heard of a resting face.I wasn’t shy—I was selectively social. Being decent in academics? Great. But if you lack social skills? Life becomes a level-99 difficulty mode. To make it worse, childhood is that beautiful time when people think mocking kids is a form of love. They’d point out everything: my teeth, my weight, my silence. As if I was a walking review page. “Can’t smile properly.” “Too quiet.” “Looks sad even while eating snacks.” Bro, I was just existing. Honestly, for some adults, teasi...

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. Tr...

"Too hot to handle? Nah, just Pitta Prakrti things

 Meet Tara. She’s that girl who walks into the room looking like she’s got her whole life together — sleek hair tied up in a no-nonsense bun, eyebrows always on point, and that natural glow people spend money trying to recreate with 15- step skincare routines. But here’s the truth — her glow isn’t from serums. It’s from inner fire.  Literally. Tara’s day starts before sunrise — not because she’s trying to be aesthetic, but because her inner clock is built different. She doesn’t “wake up late.” That’s just not in her DNA. Her wardrobe? Clean, crisp, and no-nonsense — just like her. Now, let’s talk food. If it’s too spicy, Tara’s body goes full-on “this is betrayal.” So she sticks to cooling stuff — coconut water, sabudana khichdi, cucumber salads. But here’s the twist: she loves spicy food. She’ll be dying inside after eating a plate of peri peri fries but still be like, “One more bite.” Classic toxic relationship energy with food. She’s always warm — emotionally and temperatur...
