I don't know bruh

And I took a long breath, feeling my chest contract as the air slowly entered my nose and relax as it slowly left my lips. As I released the air from my mouth, I could smell the eggs that I had this morning. Blame my mom for forcing me to eat eggs every morning even though I have always made it clear that eggs will one day be the bane of my existence. And by the way, I am not doing yoga, no. Sorry Ramdev baba lovers. I am just sitting in my terrace as always and no I didn’t break a sweat carrying that damn black chair like last time (stop wondering which black chair I am talking about because you’d know if you read my first blog).
Anyways yeah I am in my terrace and I am hunched up in front of my laptop for the past 23.4 minutes, playing with my hair and itching the allergic rash on my left cheek that literally appeared out of nowhere. And every 3.6 minutes I wonder if my cerebrum is working properly or not since I cannot really think about what to write. I mean as soon as my fingers hover above my keyboard, my cerebrum just decides to take a break and go for swimming, which is the exact reason why I have been sitting cross legged in front of my laptop for the past 46 minutes now. Oh by the way, cerebrum is the part of our brain that does the thinking and stuff? So stop scrunching your face up wondering what cerebrum is if you didn’t already know. I mean nobody told you to daydream about your crush or use your cell phone or murmur and mumble with your friend when the teacher was yapping on in science class. My point is, at least you would have known what cerebrum is if you had paid more attention in class. Oh well! Even I had to google it up so whatever.
 Honestly though, I think even satan would feel pity on me if he saw how much I am struggling to get my words and thoughts together and gather it in my third blog. I literally do not know what to write about.
As I keep torturing my brain to come up with an interesting topic, my eyes land on my phone that has been sitting alone since the past hour. A feeling of pity bubbling inside of me and not being able to see my phone sit alone, I pick it up and unlock the pattern and start going through it. As I ignore all the unnecessary notifications from unwanted people in my messenger chat box, I open Instagram. I start scrolling through the pictures on my feed, my facial expressions ranging from ‘awww’ to ‘omggg’ to what not. Taking a long yawn, stretching my arms above my head, feeling my tired bones popping, I lock my phone and decide to get back to my writing. But as I check my watch, I realize that I had been on Instagram for the past 2 hours and then I don't even feel like writing anymore. Damn! So much for putting up a new blog today. *Sigh*

Dear soul sister, What does Chemistry remind me of? It reminds me of the very beginning of this very beautiful friendship. A friendship so pure that even distilled water gets jealous, a friendship that everyone wishes to have. Out of all the 30 something students in our class, you and I were the only ones to hate Chemistry with a passion which made us the only ones lingering around in the library when everyone was busy frying their brains on their Chemistry books. Then started our library shenanigans of course, which is clearly still etched onto my mind. From reading each other’s horoscopes to blushing over questions on ask.fm, from spitting water while trying to ‘act normal’ to reading psychology books, from gushing over ‘you know who’ to getting scolded for making too much noise in the library. From this to that, you became my best friend. Now what? Was all the fun times enough to make me love you so much to the point that I am dedicating a blog to you? Bleh, of course not. Ups...

Gender blender

  “Anil. Anil Gauchan is his name. And he will take you to US after marriage. Isn’t that amazing?” Sanu heard her parents saying as she uncrossed her legs and looked up to see them smiling so wide as if they were advertising for a Colgate advertisement. Her parents had always been so keen on marrying her off, it sometimes made her wonder what the rush was for. But being the kind of daughter who always listened to her parents and obeyed them no matter what, she knew she could not say no this time either. Even if she was just about to turn 22 in a month. Even if she did not have a single clue about how the ‘Anil Gauchan’ guy looked. Even if her heart had so badly wanted to say no. Sanu and Anil were now happily married for 2 years. Looking back on her two years of fairytale like marriage, Sanu had started to feel like her parents had made the right decision for her. Anil had always been so caring and loving towards her. Although he had not taken her to US like her parents s...

Kanchi didi

It’s a cold and dull and dreary Monday evening and my heart hurts. It’s 5:38 pm and my heart just hurts. As I sit and watch her desperately trying to warm her hands by engulfing the warm cup of tea in her palms, my heart hurts. As I sit and watch her take super tiny bites of the choco pie that I gave her a few minutes back, my heart hurts. 22 year old Kanchi didi came to visit us today. She used to render her helping hands in our daily household chores before she got married away to a guy in Nuwakot. Her mom had tears in her eyes when she bid her daughter a good bye hoping and praying to the gods above for Kanchi’s better life in her husband’s house, hoping that she will no longer need to go to people’s houses to work. But as I saw her today, I realized that Kanchi didi’s mother’s prayers did not turn out very well. I realized that when I saw her sitting with bare curled up toes in this chilly weather. I realized that when I saw her sitting there showering us with a fake smile w...
