Journey of an MBA student #1
Though my plans of going to the beautiful campus have gone for a toss, but with the ease of my soft bed and mom giving fruit salads is a real privilege. With orientation rolling, I’m taking it slow, trying to strike a balance in my routine, tuning out on social media and bracing myself for…
Childhood Hero
Did you have the trend of supplementary readers in school? The nomenclature might differ but it’s like a book discussion for a batch of students followed by a book review and evaluation on the themes of the novel. And The Diary of a Young Girl was one of them. Chosen for 14 year old, restless…

Inner Voice #2 – Frustrated

Shut up everyone. Don’t breathe. //Signing off SB You can follow me on instagram at https://www.instagram.com/thetragedykween/.
