The New Abnormal



Quarantine has given everyone enough time to reflect, understand and learn their newly discovered skills during this pandemic which probably is a blessing in disguise. And due to this, I found out that I can start a blog myself, writing about my experiences get adjusted to the new abnormal!

Such ideas to a teenager would only spark at 2 a.m, whereas I came up with this 15 minutes after I woke up.
Yes, I’m a teenager and I have conversations with my friends where we tell each other how much we want this to end even though we have absolutely no idea when we’re going to see each other next! At least not anytime soon:(

Speaking of late night enthusiasm, I had thought one myself:- room makeover. Scrolling through Pinterest and saving ideas to numerous boards, I had the perfect room in mind. But the first step towards a makeover is cleaning. I was quite reluctant about that but finally convinced myself to do so. I made a huge checklist of how many things to clean, throw and organise and two weeks later I am the 14-year old Marie Kondo with 3/4th of the list checked off. 

My friends know me to be a person with OCD in terms of organising (like Monica from F.R.I.E.N.D.S.) but my parents disagree saying that I’m quite messy (which might be somewhat true). And if you’re wondering, I haven’t yet completed the cleaning!

So here I am with my decent writing skills, never-ending hope and end number of stories to tell, signing off...

    I like the title to begin with, a capability of a creative ‘lateral thinking’. It is indeed a new beginning and very refreshing to see our ‘kiddo’ take up the pen and so fluidly express herself. Effortlessness noted. Very good. Keep it up. Blessings.

Online Birthday Parties and the Cyclone

So apparently these are a thing nowadays. I know I haven't been posting very frequently recently but that's because I've been busy organizing one myself. I planned a birthday surprise for my friend whose not from my school, so I had to gather 11 of her friends who I barely knew to plan it with me.  The struggles were REAL.  Communication and cooperation between teenagers is a huge task, believe me, I write with experience. We teenagers are lazy especially when it comes to sending some photos or videos, but there is that one person who has laziness in their DNA. Even if you start planning 15 days before the person's birthday, that person will send the picture for the video or collage 25 minutes before the zoom call.  Don't even get me started on WhatsApp groups, these only work if the other people are willing to reply to the plan, I mean isn't that how it's supposed to work? There'll be that one person who never replies, NOT A SINGLE MESSAGE, only reads t...

Being An Ambivert

How many times have you been asked whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert? Have you ever answered saying you’re someone in the middle? If you have, chances are, you’re an ambivert! I am one and I know many other people who are one too.  Some people probably did not know that such a word existed (neither did my parents:) which is why I’m going to write about what it's like to be an ambivert. Ambiverts aren’t as shy as in introvert but at the same time, not as outgoing as extroverts. We like being around other people but we sometimes also need our own personal space to do things we enjoy. For teenagers especially, the words ‘personal space’ has a whole new level of meaning.  I personally think I’ve taken this gene from my mom since my dad is more on the introvert side. While my first impression might state me being an introvert, my best friends would beg to differ. Ambiverts can be completely different in front of strangers and in front  of friends. It’s...

The Family Saga

This lock down  has been rather great, except for the fact that I couldn't go out and meet my friends. But let's face it, haven't we all found a new hobby or maybe started doing something productive which we never thought we'll like? My family has been very productive, and that includes my grandma starting the TV exactly 10 seconds before Mahabharata starts. My mom, who rarely cooked, has become the next master chef. In the last few days, my house has become a restaurant with different types of cuisine everyday. We have had Maharashtrian, Punjabi, Italian Continental and even chaat. Although the one thing that came free with the cooking was my mom's exceptionally lame jokes! Trust me, you do not want to hear those jokes. My dad on the other hand, has been diligently doing yoga everyday and yet does not complain about the amount of times I disturb him. When it comes to me, I have been obsessed with n number of things. Some of them being, room makeover, baking and the...
