People I Didn’t Know I Needed

Hi cuties! I’m back with another blog post, and this one is purely an appreciation post for my friends. I honestly don’t know where to start, but I’ve never really had great friendships during my school years. So I didn’t truly understand what a good friendship felt like until 11th grade. After that, I found some of the best people I now get to call my friends, and I feel incredibly lucky to have them in my life. I have this one friend , and we actually hated each other in school. But after we left school, we realised we were in the same boat and could have easily been best friends back then. Better late than never, I guess, because now she is my best friend. I’ve known her for almost 10 years, so she’s not just a friend, she’s family. And I’m not exaggerating when I say I’ve lost my guest privilege at her house, and she’s lost hers in my life. With her, I say the most cancellable things. She judges me, but then says something even more cancellable, and we both laugh like idiots. Tha...

My Love Hate Relationship With Social Media

Hey cuties, 

I am back with another blog, did you enjoy my previous blog? I hope you did. So this is week 2 of blogging, and today's topic is actually a relatable one. We all love scrolling through reels, reading those comment sections, or posting our best pictures on social media, don't we? Additionally, it gives us a dopamine rush, which in turn makes us feel good.

But somedays all of this gets exhausting (for me at least), somedays it just feels too overwhelming, and then I decide I'll stop using social media or I need a break. Well, I do take a break till someone sends me a meme, and I am back at using social media. 

Social media shows us just one side of people’s lives, and we’re all like, “Wow, that’s their reality!” Spoiler alert: it's not. As a digital creator, the struggle to constantly come up with content is real. And if I don’t post, my engagement drops like a bad  Wi-Fi connection. Weird problem, but hey, it’s a thing!

Then there are days when scrolling makes me feel meh about myself. Like, someone my age is out there crushing life, or some random person is basically living my dream life, and suddenly I'm spiraling, like, “Wait, what am I even doing with my life?”

And let’s not forget the desi bonus! As an Indian brown girl, the concept of nazar (evil eye) is always lurking in my brain. "What if I post too much and someone’s evil vibes mess up my whole vibe?" Social media, man—it’s a wild ride.

Okay so let's be honest, we’re not giving up social media—let’s not get crazy. But maybe we can try using it without letting it turn our brains into mush. Sure, the grass looks greener online, but at this point, it’s probably Photoshopped. Let’s keep it real, people!

Thanks for sticking with me! And don’t forget to keep it chill—things have a way of falling into place.
