Two broken hearts :) (:

Two broken hearts,oh, they’ve been squeezed so hard,by the hands of the destiny? yes, maybe,and yet they parade the streets,marching on the tune only they understand,it’s a way to the dreamland! Two sets of eyes, both spectacled,and yet spectacularly readable,sometimes the pearls of sadness, not so frequent on the shore,sometimes the awkward glances, and yetContinue reading “Two broken hearts 🙂 (:”

There is a path I see!

(Inspired by the magical land of Scotland, where the nature leaves no stone unturned to mesmerize you!) As I pull my jacket closer,and touch my numb face,with my cold hand, braving against the wind,there is a path I see! There is a path I see,half-lit by the lamps from the houses,where the sons of seaContinue reading “There is a path I see!”

How to maintain your productivity in this pandemic – 3C’s of WFH!

To be honest, when I was in office, I’d always think, that working from home would be much better than coming to office everyday. No need to pull myself out of that dreamy sleep and slip into those formals, keeping an eye on the clock all the time. No last minute rush to book anContinue reading “How to maintain your productivity in this pandemic – 3C’s of WFH!”

Letter from a ghost!

A cold night, a warm black hoodie, hands in the pockets, and headphones in the ears. Eyes half-closed, as steps, blindly followed the usual route on the tune of “Perfect“. Serene streets, misty air, and not even a single living entity insight. It was just another midnight walk, on my favorite streets of IIM Bangalore.Continue reading “Letter from a ghost!”

Perfect colors and imperfect hues!

Steam rising from a colourful teacup. A colourful teacup lightly perched on the delicate glass table. The glass table holding the dreamy hand of a girl with light bangs and deep eyes. Her deep eyes holding the secret to her beautiful smile. As she waited in anticipation for her interview results to come out, sheContinue reading “Perfect colors and imperfect hues!”

Bookmarks!

“I am really tired of your any-time-reading habit now.” His anger was indeed genuine for his co-passenger. She would always carry a book or two in her purse, and open them at every opportune moment. Order a coffee – and start reading. Catch a flight – and start turning some pages. 10 extra minutes toContinue reading “Bookmarks!”

Guest post: ‘Bois locker room’ has many more doors to open!

There’s a lot of talk about how we need to rein in our boys when they are young. Of course, all of this precipitated by recent events regarding the IG group of boys demeaning their classmates. This will keep creating social outrage for some time until some new fad takes over and all our socialContinue reading “Guest post: ‘Bois locker room’ has many more doors to open!”

Making it work!!

“You what’s the problem of your generation?” He looked at his boss with as polite cold eyes he could, as he slowly stirred the his black coffee – something he needed desperately after a sleepless night. The presentation was in about an hour, and he wasn’t in for a generation-gap lecture before it. “You liveContinue reading “Making it work!!”

Free fall!

“You know what, I am tired of your excuses now!” She was looking at him with an intensity unknown to him. She was furious. The devil was dancing on her face, and the tune was vibrating through her cheekbones. “What excuses?” He tried to play dumb, but he knew what she was going to jumpContinue reading “Free fall!”
