Growth
In the Growth Session yesterday, we talked about growth. How do you know you’re growing, how do you set goals, what does growth even look like — all those things. Got me thinking. For as long as I remember, I have always wanted to + work towards getting better. Perpetual levelling up. It started off…

Becoming That Bitch
Every single piece that I have started with a good evening has never gone out. But this evening is different. It had the prettiest, most magical skies. And I am determined. So, good evening! People actually read these blogs. Most of these are just my fuckery on the Internet. To please my whims and fancy.…

Steamroller in a field of flowers
Last few days, I have consumed or been a part of many interesting conversations. Let me distil them for you. One. FOMO + Sifting. @saurabh sent me this. And this. And this. And a question came to mind. “Do you find a million cool people and read all their cool work? Or random? If A, then how…

Finding love in 2024
Written on Jan 11. Posted on Jan 27. Edited thrice in between. Lunch break just ended and I have my earphones blasting Mika’s Mast Kalander. Kids are flooding in with tiny snacks and big coffees. I can’t hear them talk – it’s like an Instagram story with some super-thought-out, vibey music. And it is nothing…

Writing is a thinking tool
I will not be led astray by emotions. Simply put: I whiled on and off the Internet for some four hours today before I finally sat down to write. And I already knew what I wanted to talk about but that looming reminder in my head was unkind and stole the fun + charm of…

My name is Anshika. And I was born in 2003.
Greetings of the day. (Ref to yesterday’s post) Pre-Ps: Decode the blog title :p Mother Taylor’s 1989 – HER VERSION – just dropped. And the world is falling back in place. That’s the album that pulled me into the fandom. It was a fun cycling evening. I came home to grab some water for me and the…

On writing (dot com?)
My first encounter with a Greetings-of-the-day email was at 16. I read it on Fufs’ laptop. And mocked him a lot – I thought wasn’t cool, wasn’t ✨ giving. ✨ Today at 12:18 AM of October 27, 2023, I think it is the most rational choice. A blanket wish. The only problem is – it is…

Working this weekend
Nothing went out on the blog this past week and I am mini-upset about it. I was in a mental/emotional rut and low-energy (thank God for female hormone cycles) and a little occupied with college things. And I hate making that excuse. I want to be better than that. Phew. Oh but I did have…
