Left early, feeling like a traffic ninja. But nope, 30 minutes in and there’s a crash, turning my 25-minute delay into an existential crisis. Life really knows how to ruin a victory lap. Life: 1, Me: 0. #TrafficWoes #JustMyLuck

Got told off by a toddler I wanted to drive past her dad who had parked in the middle of a driveway blocking the route out of the parking lot. I got finger wagged and frowned at. I dont know whether to laugh at this cuteness or to cry at how late I’m going to be.

Just spending time scrolling and lol-ing. At both; my cynicism on the lives of other’s and my own. Being fully judgemental and unapologetically so. 🫣

Thanks for returning my bartan. Guess you’ve enjoyed the biryani. @Uber_India 🤷‍♀️

Okay chal, eat the biryani. Just return my bartan, plisss. 🥺 @Uber_India

@Uber_India Please return my biryani. 🥺

Uncovering. Discovering. Recovering.

I have maroed full power entriyaan in the hope that the kids ke dimaag mein bajjos full power ghantiyaan.

I am now officially declaring that a nap is probably one of the best solutions to life’s problems.

Oh the beauty of watching little children encourage other little kids to do better is probably the most endearing thing to see this festive season.

I have reaffirmed that loudly singing Hrithik Roshan songs such as Senorita in your car when you’re stuck in rubbish jams is an instant mood elevator. Also makes your fully forget that your students are probably wondering where you are.

Who agrees that rajma-chawal needs to be in the top most comforting foods?

Currently navigating the waters of disingenuous camaraderie, where sincerity has taken a backseat and pretense is steering the ship. Smooth sailing, isn't it?

Studying as an adult: because apparently, my brain thought taking on more responsibilities was a fantastic idea. #AdultingAcademics

Pleased to know that we have finally reached Friday.

You hear the little voice in your ear? Yeah, that one.. The one that’s whispering that “it’s okay, do what’s right for you, do what’s right to you..” Haan, that one.. Turn the volume up a little more now. Just listen to it. Okay? Okay.

Asked my 4th grade student if she was being brutally honest or just honest. She replied, “just brutal.” Being savage starting young these days.

Dubai weather is replicating my mood with the kind of swings it’s having.

Love how I turn to twitter as a dumping ground for thoughts when my journal is almost over and Instagram isn’t enough.

Hi everyone. Me is back.
