Who are we?

Life is not always the same. Changes are inevitable,so are problems. At times, people say that you have changed. But, we may not actually realise it. Sometimes, we actually need someone to keep our darkest secrets safe, but couldn't find anyone to confide in. There's this wonderful habit of pouring your heart down and letting yourself to discover who you are and what you want. We all tend to write that in our New Year resolutions list, but we actually never follow it. Guess what? I'm talking about journal writing, or rather diary writing, as we call it.

I started writing this goal in my New Year resolutions list when I was in 4th grade. I was inspired by Anne Frank then. Every year, I used to start writing a journal in different note books, and the longest I've maintained is for 2 months.  And recently, after watching a few episodes of Vampire Diaries, I was somewhat intrigued to write journal. Something from those persuaded me that I didn't have to wait till next January to start a new journal. And I've been writing continuously for three weeks now.

Journal writing is the toughest easy job anyone could do. It is easy because all you do is jot things down, whatever you feel. I did the same, and I discovered a few changes that everyone keep telling me that had actually happened. It secures your feelings and thoughts from spreading, if you keep your diary safe. The toughest part of this activity is that you'll have barriers that would stop you from continuing it. Anything, like tests, homeworks, tiredness, or even laziness, in my case.

This is something which I'd recommend everyone to take up. Just try it for a month,and you'll see the change for yourself. You might even see the creative you! Let me know if you take this challenge.

Saturdays with BK Uncle

Edit 1 : This is something I wrote a long time ago. repurposing for entertainment purposes. any harm thus caused isn't intentional; it happens to be a byproduct. Nobody knows how old BK Uncle is. Some say he's 60; some say he's awaiting his 80th birthday next month. He's been around for a long time. "Long time" might not seem so long, but for this young flat, it feels like an eternity. Old BK seemed nice; he'd converse with anyone he encountered. The four W's never mattered until they came out of him. People got used to his habits, like any obedient student would in an assembly. Well, most people. My interactions with BK Uncle have been quite amusing on my end and irritating on his. Incidentally, most of my interactions with BK Uncle happen on Saturdays. Probably because that's when I'm home, and I take a stroll in the lobby. Not so long ago, I'd play with my friends in the same lobby—it didn't matter what day of the week it was. Times...

Dude - Review

TL;DR - A Rare mainstream surprise with its heart in the right place. To begin with, I didn't expect any movie to make it to my blog this year, especially Dude. I was skeptical even while booking the tickets, and the pessimism only grew when a couple of close friends said they didn’t like it. For context: I didn’t enjoy Love Today , and Dragon was just okay. But if skepticism can ever lead to a pleasant surprise, Dude definitely proves it. I usually look for one out of two things from a film - a compelling narrative or solid entertainment. I don’t comment much on Tamil films because Tamil cinema, at least from what I have sampled, often misses both and at its worst, treats the female lead as an interchangeable prop, contributing no real agency to the story. It has been a long while since a mainstream entertainer offered a female character with intention, dimension, and presence. Dude does, and that alone deserves acknowledgement. PR struck like a typical Gen-Z actor in his first...

My experience with Murakami - 1

Before we begin, I am in no way qualified to review this book. However, I might not be able to move on with life if I don't give this the closure it deserves. I thought my first encounter with Murakami would be through Norwegian Wood. Like everybody else. It could've been through Kafka on the shore too, I saw that book on my dad's desk for almost three months. But no. Maybe this book landed at the right time. Or there is no right time. Sometimes you find the book, and in most cases, it is the book that finds you. With the wind-up bird chronicle, it definitely has to be the second one for me.  The Wind-up bird chronicle - Haruki Murakami I love it when narratives are non-linear. Life, as I've lived it in the last 20 years, or for most of the part that I can remember has not been linear. I've seen people around me leading a linear life.  School->College->job/grad school/get married -> become an adult -> have kids -> realise at 40 you are your parent a...
