Valentine's Day Drama

V-day is just around the corner and emotions are running high. Normally, this time of the year I am holed up in my bedroom watching sappy movies but recently I met some like-minded people who believe that being single is no reason for us to miss out on the fun that couples get to have. If everyone in the world is going out on 14th Feb, what's stopping us?



Do you remember that scene from Sex and the City where all 4 of them wear black to someone's wedding as a silent protest? Well, that's exactly what me and my BFFs do. Every V-day, we dress up in black, go out and judge other couples. BEST TIME EVER.
Last year we saw a guy wearing yellow t-shirt with a red cap. His girlfriend must be lovin' it - she is dating McDonald's!


This year since V-day is on a Tuesday and we will be in office all day, we have decided to send each other chocolates and gifts. When all the couples around us are sad for not receiving anything(fingers crossed), we'd be happily munching away on our chocolates and not sharing them. The day is about Love, and I absolutely love my besties. We are a group of 3 and honestly, if there are 3 of me out there, people - be scared. If someone ever heard us talk, poor human would have to bathe in holy water to cleanse himself.

But, wait, let's go back on the topic of V-day. I am going to officially stop using Facebook in February. Can we just stop with all the hearts and the red and the sappiness in general. Food Network (page that I usually drool over)  posted a video of Red Heart-shaped Pancakes! GAG. Why, just why would you do that? Every thing is red. Hearts and roses. STOP. This is a cry for help!

It seems all Grey matter turns Red in Feb. 


I have innumerable issues with this one day especially because I don't have a special someone. Even with all my plans and rants, I will be single at the end of that day and it is going to be okay.

To all the lovers celebrating, try not to shove it in our faces.
To all the Singles, try not to feel too low.

As for me, I will be right here, stuffing my face with all the brownies and donuts in the world.



So long peeps,
XOXO

Pain

What nobody told us  it never gets better it only gets older sometimes duller.  It stays with you like that ache that you are used to one that doesn't hurt anymore just exists. One fine day you woke up  not the same, an ache where there was none now a part of you follows you where you go grows as you grow older.

Reader

As the title says. I am a reader. I average  on mostly 1 book a day, sometimes even more. It's a hobby or you  can even call it an obsession. I need to read, I have to. When I have nothing else to do, guess what I do? Obviously read. It is like I crave stories, I crave an escape. I want to know, I want to feel, be something I never will. In reading I thrive. In books I live. These words are like food for my soul. And most importantly i read everything. Anything i can get my hands on. I love fiction- Jeffrey Archer being my favourite, John Grisham not too far behind and Suzanne Collins is always there. But recently I have been reading a lot of Romance and seems like I have fallen in love. With  the genre, not literally. So that being said, I feel it's  only fitting that I atleast review the books I have read and share my views with others. Happy reading everyone. Xoxo

Man VS Pants

Here I am, sitting with my lappy, sipping on cold coffee and typing away. I would like to think I am just like anybody else but with all that goes around in my life, I have learnt to be prepared for the worst. Murphy's Law is basically me. Yesterday, I had an interview at a University. Like all hardworking students, I left everything for the last day. Scrambling to put my portfolio together, I paid no heed to my clothes. It's not like I had to put a lot of effort into my attire anyway. Interview requires formals and since I have just one pair of formal clothes, the indecision goes right out of the window. To give some context on why a working professional does not own a lot of formals is because my company (one of the kindergarden companies, also known as startups) does not require formals. Our dress code is casual. They are lucky I don't go to office in sweatpants. Now that would be casual! I own one pair of black pants, one shirt and one formal coat. Sorted? Not so ...
