Music

I have a very, very big obsession with music, and it's not going away anytime soon. I seldom find myself losing interest in things. I may find new things I love, but that doesn't mean I don't love the previous things anymore.

I think my favourite thing about music is how you can listen to it while doing anything else. Reading books, watching youtube videos, movies, or a series, and drawing are things that need you to  dedicate all your attention to them. You can  listen to music while doing all of these things, and only listen to it too.

To say I have a diverse music taste would be an understatement. My current spotify playlists are Sahajayoga, Indian Classical, Cool Music, Slow Stuff, Fast Stuff, Rap, Hindi,  Japanese, Kpop Girl Group, and Old Songs. I am listening to lofi as I write this post.

Needless to say, I was delighted when I got two sets of earphones on my birthday. The cheaper one having a better sound, ironically.

I am known to get super quiet as soon as I sit in the car. I instantly start looking outside and start daydreaming.  My parents even sometimes needed to check if I had fallen asleep. Now-a-days, They get to know I am awake by the songs I play. I love playing music in the car. It has a very good music system.

Some of my favourite artists include BTS, Anoushka Shankar, Pentatonix, Sonu Nigam, and Aaro. The last one are very underrated.Their spotify account.

Favourite soundtracks include Inside Out, Bahubali series, Spiderverse, and 3 Idiots.

The Journey Back Home

 The journey back home begins with a sigh of fulfillment followed by a thought of determination. Armed with the metro card which brings me immense convenience, I walk briskly and quickly from the college to the metro station, eager to reach the comfort of my home, to my lovely mother and her delicious and nutritious food, to my cute dog which demands pets, to my  bed which seems to call me with great appeal.  Although the destination is fated and the end always provides huge relief, it is not without obstacles and temptations. The surroundings also provide amusement.  Ignoring the appetising aroma of the bhel puri, momo, and ice cream and refusing to join in with the crowds relishing in their taste, I walk further to climb the stairs in a little effort to maintain my fitness. Quickly taking my bottle out of my bag before putting it through the security scan, and getting scanned myself, I head upstairs, wondering whether the sound of the metro is the one I have to sit...

Babaji

 In this post I'm going to recount a few fond memories with my paternal grandfather, Babaji. Most of these are of the time when he used to pick me up from school for a few months in fourth grade. He used to pick me up from the front field of our school and we walked back to the car, often holding hands. I often found a small stone to kick along the way. In the car, there would be always waiting for me a pillow and a bottle of cold water. It felt no less than luxury. He asked me eagerly what I learned in school. I remember one time I told him I had learned a new word- unique. He asked me what it's meaning was and I said different. But that's not an exact synonym, and he explained the nuance in the different meaning of the two words. I remember, earlier he had explained to me the same way how the Hindi words बाल and केश differed from each other. Since he used to pick me up from the field, where a lot of my classmates were waiting to be picked up too, I often asked them how ol...

Slam Book

 6-year-old me enters a book shop, mesmerised. Surrounded by book shelves filled with the things I love, I quickly ran up to one that interested me. It said Slam Book at the top, whatever that meant. It was filled with different questions. How interesting! You could answer the whole book filled with different questions on every page, and it could be like an encyclopaedia about you! Or so my self centered brain thought. Turns out, it's just the same questions repeated again and again, and  other  people are supposed to fill it, like your classmates when you're leaving school so that you can look back on the MeMoRIeS later on. My disappointment was immeasurable and my day was ruined. Four years pass. I get an idea. Why not fill a slam book, but you answer the questions intended for each person yourself, with a regular gap in time between them, so that you can see how you change over time? Like a diary for lazy people. I followed through. Wrote every month. But only two time...
