Poem or song

 It is the weekend so I might as well post. A few months ago, I wrote something which, uh, well, wasn't a story. It was a poem or song. Yesterday, I wrote another one.

I do not that feel proud of them, but my parents insisted I posted them.

  High School
 Good luck and break a leg! Youre in high school now!
Am I really supposed to be breaking something now?
cuz the only things thats breaking these days is my head
I wake up at 8, actually waking up at two
Sleepily attending all my classes from hindi to history..
But i think teens need more hours of sleep than six, don't you?
Am i really even trying my best at this point? its a mystery..

I guess this is my high school life now..
is there even any use being sad?
is there anything else covid and school will allow?
well, at least my birthday was rad..

I procrastinate a bit, doing homework and studying for tests
Which seem neverending, just like my desire to quit
I feel like I'm tired of living, just sleeping and eating,
When actually its the opposite, im tired of not living
Oh, I'm not mistook, i wanna read books,
I wanna watch movies, and i wanna paint rocks.

I guess this is my high school life now..
is there even any use being sad?
is there anything else covid and school will allow?
well, at least my birthday was rad..

I do not feel 14 at all, feel like I'm around eight
Ah, theres the sound of mummy yelling at me cuz i havent ate
anything since i woke up. I take my medicines after dad forces me to
I talk to my school and internet friends just for a bit,
Ah, at least i get to sing, a thing which is there in my talent kit
Its not like its all bad, i mean, theres netflix,
happy and not at the same time, oh well, its a weird mix

I guess this is my high school life now..
is there even any use being sad?
is there anything else covid and school will allow?
well, at least my birthday was rad..


I miss you
I miss you
It's just been way too long since I've met you
I know I can seem selfish
I know I can seem resentful
I know it looks like I don't wanna talk to you
But, the truth is,
I miss you
It's just been way too long since we've laughed during lunch
It's just been way too long since we've played chocolate box
I wanna talk but I dunno about what
I'm an introvert, kinda bad at small talk
But even for me, It's just been way too long.
So many birthday parties we've missed
So many inside jokes we've missed
So many practices..
So many classes..
When is the next time I'm gonna be able to meet you?
I miss you.

Here they are.


I know this post looks super long already, but I am gonna type more.

My two favourite series-Ever After High and Doctor Who

Ever After High

I discovered this series while I was just surfing through YouTube a few years ago. I still love it with all my heart. The characterisation, character design, premise, dialogue, storytelling, all of it, is just wonderful. It is the story of the children of fairytale characters. I am not going to tell any more spoilers, You can check out the clips on YouTube, like, I did at first, or watch it on Netflix if you have an account.


Doctor Who

This series I discovered a bit later. Instead of surfing on YouTube, I was surfing through the TV channels really bored when I discovered it. It is the longest running science fiction series in the world. It makes you feel all kinds of things, happy, sad, hopeful, wondrous, bittersweet, smart, all of them. The modern series, which started from 2005, is on Amazon Prime. The classic series 1963-1989 would easily be found to be downloaded from Torrent given by the BBC.

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...

I look back to when I was eight

I look back and I go to when I was eight I used to look up to my seniors and think they were great They were so hard working, had it all figured out But now I'm that age and I'm just filled with doubt When I was younger everything used to be black and white But now everything is jut hues of grey Everyone seems to think that my future is bright And I don't know what to say I finally understand how quickly time flies I feel so lost, don't know what to do in life Everyone else seems to have it all figured out And I am the only one who is left out But I realized now that it is not all bad In the end, everything is gonna be all right As long as I stay happy and keep working hard What everyone else thinks will lose its might And I will only live for myself Be content with what I have After all, when everyone else has left I will be all that I have

Shimla

 I ditched my school farewell to go on a trip to Shimla with my mom and her friends. I don't regret it one bit.  I have spoken before about how I'm not particularly attached to my school in The End of School Life . So missing my farewell was not that big of a deal for me. Shimla was spectacular and the trip of a lifetime. Shimla is known for being beautiful. It is straight out of a fairytale. The mountains, the roads, the shops, all are very remarkable and unique.  The mountainous streets were very tiring and new to us plain dwelling creatures. There is an absence of autos in the roads of Shimla and instead there are only buses which were no less than a roller coaster for me, with the meandering roads which also decrease and increase in elevation. During the night the mountains, with their lights look like a grand tapestry. I bought a bubbles toy which made huge bubbles- bigger than I had ever seen before. The sellers blowed them on the street which made the already surre...
