What would I do if I was 18?
Today’s post is inspired by @levelsio’s two year old post titled “What would I do if I was 18?” And I realise I am older than 18 today. And thus, must have an answer to this. When I started thinking about this, only work-related things came to life. For the sake of completeness, I will…

Making people feel not-stupid
Hello, hello! I have locked myself in a room till I am able to come out with this post ready. Unlike most days, I am not worn out. Slept good, ate well and nice day overall. Broke my glasses, have a make-do fixed up version right now. Will have to go get new ones —…

Very close. Thing is, I have started feeling like I don’t have enough new things to share every single day. I…

Bits and atoms
Hello, hello! I seriously considered not writing this but giving up on Day 27/30 didn’t feel right. Momentum really is a mind-altering drug.

It was our typical pack-this-for-your-journey meal. I was left behind and would cry so much saying goodbye. I remember bawling and missing them with…

Luck and risk are siblings
I have a feeling today’s post might come out better than most. Let’s see. About the day, woke up, recorded a 6 AM podcast with Saurabh and Riya, went to college, read Show your work – notes soon, got an Uber Black for home – cool experience, worked on Spill Pot – this is my…

Learning patience
Today has been another sweet day – nice and mundane. Slept some good number of hours, recorded a video for college, studied business valuation in class, got home, gymmed, worked out of Jamjar, spent some time at the beach, walked around with Saurabh, made some dhaniya chutney (did some preparing food after a very long…
