Textiversary

-

       One year ago, I texted a girl, not knowing it was her birthday; I'm glad that I did. Here we are, madly in love, being with each other in all the ups and downs. She became a vital part of my life, and now I can't even imagine a life without her.

       We started talking, and I was keen on finding a common interest. However, we always argued about our opinions, and we still do. It's funny looking back; we had debates over movies, songs, books, comics, and so many things. Finally, the day came when we decided to meet, and I did not go because of the rain. She was so angry at me as I didn't even inform her, and honestly, I was nervous. This happened twice, but the third time's the charm. We met without deciding I showed up beneath her hostel after finding it over maps, and as soon as she saw me, she came towards me and hugged me, and I didn't; I was way too shy back then. I was so happy to be able to meet her finally.

       Time passed by. We started meeting often, and on one elegant evening when it wasn't raining, we decided to have tea together. When I got near her hostel, it started raining as said in the universe, but we still went out and had tea and dosa. When we returned to her hostel, we jinxed and kissed each other on the cheeks, which felt magical. I had shivers, not from the cold but the kiss, and I knew this would be amazing.

       She was there with me when I had to get rid of my hair when I lost a challenge, and she was there when I shared my thoughts with her. She made it easy for me to embrace myself; she helped me with my fears. She got me into anime, and thank you for that, and she started picking out my outfits, as I am always in shorts and t-shirts (which I still am.) There are so many memories I want to talk about, but each one deserves a separate blog.

       We have had our share of ups and downs, and we always get through it, and now she's turning 21, and I couldn't be happier for her. I wish I were there with her celebrating her birthday, but we live in pandemic times. I've so much to say, yet words are falling less. Thank you so much, boo, for being there for me. Keep growing, and keep that smile on your face, which suits you the best. Happiest, Happiest, happiest birthday!!!! And a very happy Textiversary.

Happiness

       I was lost in her dreamy eyes, holding her in my arms; a surge of emotions rushed through my veins, and I realized that this is what happiness is to me—a heartfelt moment with the people I love and hold dear.         It was 7 in the morning when I received a call from my beloved, and she asked me to come and pick her up. I instantly got ready similar to the quick montage of Edgar Wright movies. I sped up the bike and couldn't wait much longer to see her; I reached the location seeking her. My eyes fixated on her as soon as she got into my sight. She stood there in her white pajamas, her hair glowing as the sun rose behind her, rubbing her hands against each other on the cold winter morning. She looked stunning. I got off my bike and hugged her tight, whispering, "I missed you." She replied, "I know, bub."         Back home, I made tea for her, trying to get her off the coffee spree she had been on for the past couple of days. Thus, I had to make the best

The First Step

       Lately, I have been clouded with numerous thoughts on situations I found myself in. Every other day brings a new challenge or a reality that I may not be ready to face, and then there are days when the smile on my face doesn't fade.        Can you answer me something? Have you felt like giving up on something that has become mundane or doesn't interest you anymore, but you hold back and stay put? So did I, until one day, I decided not anymore.        Today, I came across a few coding videos when revisiting my archives from four years ago. I went through all of them and relived the moments I had before, which filled me with joy. In one of the videos, I saw one question in the background that read,  "What would you do if you weren't afraid?"  which led me to write this blog. My immediate reaction after reading the question was to skydive to lose my fear of heights. I gave it a thought and realized six months before that I had given up on the job that I was in

The Lost Childhood

       It was Diwali of 2011, on 26th October. I was so happy about that day. Finally, we were going to buy a color TV. My Little dream is to finally see cartoon shows in my house. I was very much excited. Since my childhood, I've mostly played outdoor games, and I've played them all. Every Saturday and Sunday, it was just about playing the whole day long. In the evening, I would go to Saurabh's house to watch cartoons and anime shows. Like Tom & Jerry, Pokèmon, Beyblade, Digimon, Duel Masters, Dragonball, Naruto, Yu-Gi-Oh, Power-puff girls, Johnny Bravo, Ed Edd & Eddy, Code-name Kids Next Door, Samurai Jack, Swat Cats, and the list goes on. Weekends were always the best. I always wanted to see them at my own house, sadly, I couldn't. All I had for a TV was black & white Onida which would only have one channel on it Doordarshan if you know that you are fantastic.        One day, we were watching Beyblade G-force, humming to its title track's tune and sho
