Monday Mumbles

Thought I’ll just share some tidbits around one of my favorite TV shows – Friends – with you all!

1. Favorite character – Chandler. I have read on many posts that people didn’t like him when the love story began but I started liking him even more, I actually think he grew on me towards that time only. I totally loved how he was portrayed as a vulnerable person in the beginning but he is always the one who does or says the right thing in complex situations, he is the one who eases everything while Monica is always hyper.

2. Monica & Chandler – best couple ever! ❤

3. I am a lot like Monica, never noticed it until someone pointed it out. And after that, there’s no going back. I can related to so many of her traits and its kind of sad because I hate those traits. 😦

4. I don’t like Rachel’s character. I love her fashion sense and Jennifer Aniston is hot anyway but the character I don’t like. It’s way too selfish for its own good.

5. I am just watching the second season right now (this post was sitting in my drafts since years so I don’t know when exactly ‘right now’ was :)) and don’t we all just love Richard? I didn’t like him and Monica as a couple because, honestly, the age difference did affect me but, overall, he was just adorable, like, almost perfection. Too bad that Chandler had to fill in his shoes, but then, if he was almost perfection, Chandler was beyond perfection for me. 🙂

5 | Perils of a Long Distance

I sit, you sit,

You call, I repeat.

Tick, tock,

on the clock,

The former early sleeper,

doesn’t go to sleep.

These are times we need each other,

Nothing less than you would do.

They say distances make the hearts grow fonder,

Do you also miss our walks, I ponder.

But it is what it is,

difficult but our own bliss.

1 | New Year Resolution

January 2, 2019January 2, 2019 / Srishty / 6 Comments

Hello there! Welcome to the year 2019!

I am very excited as there are a lot of new things happening in my life which will materialize in 2019, so really looking forward to that. (And to new year in general).

But, amidst all this, what remains unchanged is my itch to be consistent on the blog (which I never manage to fulfill). So, I have only one new year resolution – to blog every day in this year. A lot is happening so this seems like a difficult resolution to keep especially in this year, however, I am going to try with all sincerity.

Let’s see how this goes. 🙂

Now, tell me your resolution?

Or, or, what you are doing today?

Want your thoughts!

You are too volatile. You are such an over thinker. You are unstable. You get angry so quickly.

Well, absolutely not saying that being any of that is any good. However, if you are so calm, stable, always balanced, super rational, then does that make you less passionate compared to the likes of me?

True, you will not hate unabashedly, you will not unleash anger all of a sudden (and beyond repair, of course!), but would you love as fiercely as the likes of me either?

Would appreciate your thoughts on this, all of you reading it. 🙂

The opposite of writer’s block

September 20, 2018 / Srishty / 5 Comments

Every now and then, I have a strong itch to write here but I think I have reached that point of getting-into-the-rut-of-your-day-job that I absolutely do not want to even move a finger once I am back from office and done with my essential chores (aren’t chores essential always? Anyway, you get the point).

Not that I have still managed to break that rut, but let me tell you how I landed here today (totally useless post by the way just in case you were doing something important). You know how some people have a habit of browsing news websites in their offices when they want to take a moment off from their busy schedules. For me, that’s WordPress. When I want to have a few minutes of ‘me time’ in office, I go to WordPress reader. Good coffee on the side makes those few minutes a WHOLE LOT better. So, yesterday, I did the same and I had to attend to something just when I had started, hence, couldn’t really read any posts but I went through few of the notifications. And that reminded me how much I enjoy some people’s posts! How much they make my day better! How I had never imagined that you can meet people virtually with whom you might connect on so many things! And, most importantly, how much I love writing here myself.

So, I wanted to write this post yesterday itself but not wanting to move my finger thing came into picture. But today here it is. This is what I call the opposite of writer’s block. A state of mind where you are so enamoured by the idea of writing even though you don’t really have something to write about in mind and, of course, your writing needs a hell lot of improvement anyway!

On a slightly different note, I would love to know what people reading this space might want to read next. I do have some drafts but so not ready to work on them mentally. Please comment/email if you have any suggestions, I’ll try if I can motivate myself a bit. 🙂
