Some stories are easier to tell than others. It took me more than three years to be able to tell this one. Not because of how personal or sensitive the topic is but because the story was not yet complete. I did not realise this until recently but I myself became part of the story. […]
Read more "The sky would always remind me of you but that day it was just blue"I have been quiet on here lately. You would think it was because I had nothing to say or show but it was the opposite. These last few months, my mind constantly felt like a rushing river filled with endless thoughts, new realizations, and ideas. Normally, I would happily start my morning by writing all […]

I had a chance to participate in Hear and Now project a few days ago and with memories still being fresh, I decided to share my thoughts on music, the project itself and tell a little bit […]
Read more "Thoughts on music; Hear and Now with the Philharmonia"Rainy days are best when you don’t have to rush anywhere. I couldn’t think of a better way to start my Saturday than by doing some experiments in the kitchen. It took me ~ 40 mins to make these delicious bites of happiness and ingredients I used are super easy to find and student budget friendly. […]
