True Magic

New books new books!!! I am so happy!

I always ask for books as Rakhi presents, birthday presents, basically for any type of gift giving exercise. Because of this people start to think I'm so mature, intellectual and being such a good sister/person by not asking for expensive, random stuff. People listen to me, one books are very expensive which is why I always have a wishlist that I'm ready to whip out at any occasion where people offer to buy me presents. It's not nice it's slightly crazy. As for being intellectual, hahaha right, I read fiction and comedy it's not a source of information it's a method of immersion and escape.

Oh my God everyone new books! the joy can never be communicated no matter how many exclamation points I use. Actually, if I use too many it conjures an image of an overstimulated, sugar-hopped, hyperactive kid which image doesn't accurately describe the emotions. It's more like one chocolate pastry, one cup coffee, a quiet sunset on the beach while hearing the waves crashing about. I wonder if putting the feelings in pictures helped. 

So I got the 'Lord of the ring's' series which I haven't read yet, the 'cousin o Dwyer' series by Nora Roberts (huge fan of her) and 'Ashoka' by Wytze Keuning. I had actually started reading Ashoka and was having my mind blown with every page but I stopped for exams and then... lost the book, been kicking myself about it ever-since. It is such an amazing book. I hope a lot of people read it, love it and are enriched by it. Phew, now that my excitement is on the Internet, therefore real, onto the marathon book reading session.

My best friend told me she is moving permanently to the other side of the world for education and job purposes What I felt:- NOOOOOOO!!! Why? What’s the need?

Does she know how cold it is out there and there are bears in that part of the world its effing dangerous... what if there is an avalanche? *so much crying on the inside.

Confrontation

  This aspect of social interaction is hard for me. My heart just starts to pound really loud when I have to tell someone I'm angry or upset. Putting aside the many phone calls that need to be made to Dr. Phil, this is actually about a specific incident. So what happened is that recently someone shouted at me for something and I after giving myself 5 motivational speeches and introspecting endlessly pushed myself to go tell that person that I did not appreciate their  behavior . Here are some observations on what happened :- 1. Whatever you planned to say, be certain it will not be what you end up saying. You think It will go from A to B in this logical sequence. What happens however is you go from A to T then D and then she/he says something in between and you think oh right “B C” *wink wink 2. The scenario you have imagined in your head will do a 180 degree flip in the real life situation For instance I imagined a real fight; curses flying back and forth,...

Online Fantasy Worlds

Making this post because I discovered these gems quite late and they are awesome for any fantasy/fiction/supernatural buffs out there. The first is the web series Carmilla, based on the J. Sheridan Le Fanu Novella. No I haven't read it, didn't even know what it was till I started watching the series but if anyone is interested they can always see the synopsis on Wikipedia. The format of the show is narrative, the writing is brilliant and the actors don't miss a beat. There are currently 3 seasons online and soon there will be a movie!! All hail the Giant Angler fish God. #creampuffs The fandom of this series is amazing, they create beautiful artwork, comic strips and write fanfiction's, insightful headcanon's etc based on the episodes and it really helps with the withdrawal and impatience one feel's while waiting for the next one. There are many things to love about this; the relationships, characters, story arcs. What deserves special mention is the w...
