It's of absolutely no wonder that we laughed off the idea of a virtual onam celebration!Dressing up for the camera was different in a not so good way with the fact that we could have no live games or jovial talks and the probability of discomfiture and shifting eyes posing as a dark cloud.All the online meetings for preparations for the online onam celebration went on with low traffic and the calls for activities and participations were attended to ambiguously. After all,how good could a virtual celebration be?  Einstein's words,"God does not play dice",seems to be faltered in the philosophies and the daily life matters governing us. Expectations lead to us hoping we were not there in the first place .Plans,activities that go unnoticed in a lackadaisical way turns out to be the times we wished would never pass.If this is not a game of probability and a clash of extremes ,I don't know what is!  That being said,the videos to songs to dances to..just talking face to ...

Years back,every Fridays,we used to have a Video call with my aunt-also my close confidante.Ours is a bijou family and we are pretty much ostracized here. So our relief and our family reunion was that particular video call. It was a hectic task:setting the Wi-Fi , the web cam ,the speakers, arranging the computer and finally hunting for the spot for unhindered network connection with cables all over the place leaving my younger self wondering how my sister managed it all(which is relevant to this minute).I pitied the predicament that forced us to fit emotions in a minuscule rectangular screen. Back then I didn't anticipate this would be our present ,our future for an uncertain period and to put it simply, our way of life. FAST FORWARD TO THE PRESENT, HERE WE ARE AND VOILA!! Right from learning to communications:we are literally living virtually! I take a moment to thank whoever it was who initiated WhatsApp,Zoom,Webex or any meeting apps and yeah sure,the 4G network connection as I...

 Hello! [Please try to read it completely as I'm so in need of honest and supportive opinions:)] I have no clue as to how to begin a formal introduction for a blog. This is my very first time and...I don't know about any of the steps or methods to do this!! I'm a student who happens to be interested in writing though I don't know how much of me is a writer as I hold that title in high esteem. So basically I'm an ordinary girl in pursuit of my dreams and who is weary of people ;not so about the way they are ,but the way they choose to be, to hurt and offer lectures on why you are worthless.I've got zero confidence on where I'll reach or whether I can do it..if I can create something  or ..relish the feeling of sanginuity it offers. I've begun this quite secretly :not a soul knows I've started 'blogging'. I've actually entered this world because lately it's been just depressing for me like most of us owing to the lockdown period and the...
