floating through the cosmic unknown

i was once a partly hollowed puppet that trusted the all-knowing people to pull my strings. of course, i knew how to walk the big blue orb on my own but at the same time, because i worried about the immense gaze that was ever so often embedded all over me, i let them take control. because if i committed a mistake on my own, they would immediately shove shame on my face. the moment that they will cease to love the show i gave them is a piercing needle that has always been stuck inside me. i could never bring myself to disappoint anyone. ever.

but as the years dapple me with more knowledge, i realize that people will only care for you when it benefits them. i think that's just our natural human instinct when we want a connection with someone that we perhaps find interesting. when there are the kind of people that make us feel good, this still bears the most of our attention. at least, this has been most of my experience. sometimes, i believe, it's okay. it's okay to follow those who gives you the most pleasurable feelings as long as we understand the limits and our boundaries on certain things.

but when this becomes too much to deal with and this relationship quickly shifts from being so pleasurable to something utterly tormenting, the realization that people only formed a connection with you because it gives them power and are willing to take every good thing that stems from you—is going to leave a lifetime painful impact. how is it that people can appear so genuine but have the most evil intentions?

sadly, this has been the cycle of my friendships during my college years. i only form friendships that lived for as long as a bubble floats in front of me. this, eventually, formed its own universe. when i look back at the earlier years of college, i somehow feel nostalgic with these bubbles of friendships i once had. these people i got to meet but somehow our relationship drifted because we stopped being blockmates. most have graduated, and some had change of plans with their future. i used to pity myself for not being able to keep friendships but then i realized that maybe these kinds of friendships formed on mundane routines just isn't my thing. i am not saying that i need a special kind of connection to remain alive in a friendship, but rather most people i meet were not just meant for me to be genuinely friends with. i guess i just didn't fit in places that i often show up.

if i would be honest, during my long years in college, the only place where i felt like i really belong was in ADVO. despite having a lot of articles to write every single day, the university publication kept me sane. ADVO became my safe space; i was able to express myself in terms of writing, making art, and even in making friends with likeminded people. my self-confidence grew, and for the first time ever, i finally learned how to hold myself a lot better when faced with another human being. however, as years go by and they leave me behind one by one—i found myself going back to where i was before. it was as if i were in my first year of college again. i had no one; i knew no one.

most normal human beings would've probably done it all over again, to make new friends as much as possible, but since i am not normal (AH?!) i hid in my own cave. i just didn't have enough energy to let new people come into my life anymore. at this point, i just really wanted to graduate. sure, i liked our little interactions and the way that they exchange quick banters with their friends were entertaining. but, i have no more light left in me to keep more people at this phase of my life. so, instead of kindling a friendship, i resorted to putting the little energy i had into sharpening my craft: in writing, art, and music.

with this, i had worked with a few writers, have gotten into the world of tattooing, commissioned some tattoo designs, honed my crocheting skills, collabed with a few musicians, and had improved my music/guitar skills. truly, i regret nothing. i may not have had the best of friends nor do i excel greatly in this field, but at least i somewhat have my mental health together. unfortunately, i do not aim high like everyone else. it is just not in my system, so, fulfilling the tiny yearnings that i have within myself were enough to keep me alive this long. now with my frontal lobe fully developed, i have accepted that i can only be certain things when i have the means to do them.

i have learned so much about keeping my mental health in a somewhat acceptable shape—i will forever be grateful that i did this for myself. despite. despite. despite...

as graduation slowly becomes a reality to me, i can finally give myself a pat on the back. this phase of my life is finally turning into a chapter that i can look back to. i can somehow see myself becoming a teacher in the future, but the weight of getting into the world of writing, arts, and music is heavier than my desire to teach: a longing i have been aching to satiate. perhaps this is why i have been so lonely during my college years.

i was once a partly hollowed puppet that trusted the all-knowing people to pull my strings. but i can stand on my own now and i have severed every connection with people that no longer brings value to my life. i am no longer afraid to make mistakes and disappoint people for the choices that i make for my own betterment. shame is a deeply rooted behavior of a person, it is solely a reflection of what they truly feel about themselves when they try to drag you down. i am no longer tied to what pains me.

here's to making a life through the cosmic unknown.

I'm so bittersweet as we approach med school graduation. my last time being a student. when I think about graduating from university, I didn't expect the world to shut down or even to graduate that year so there was no anticipatory grief. now that we've finished our clinical rotations and we have just a handful of online classes left, everyone is scattering away home or on trips. the other day I realised that I have probably already experienced my last time studying at coffee shops with my friends but I didn't know it then. you always think you have more time. as Gretchen Rubin said, "the days are long, but the years are short." four years ago four years seemed so long and yet here we are

Artic monkeys, Fall Out Boy, The Crane Wives, Waterparks, and MCR is my current top 5

I haven't had a top 5 like this since the start of my freshman year and I'm about to start my first year of college

It kind of makes me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside to think that I'm making past me proud by not only graduating early but also getting into a college and by keeping my music taste similar if not the exact same lol

thank you boootthhh

but honestly the issue was just that uh

this class is basically ‘design of metalworking’ so far? Which is not the manufacturing i worked in, i worked in milling, turning, anodizing, 3D printing, secondaries and quality

so i really didn’t know any of the content, like why would i want to know if face centric or body centric iron is more carbon soluble unless i produce raw cast iron

#thank you both thoooouuuughhhh #<3 #my only concern right now is just #graduating #and that means just getting thru the semester and passing

I'M GRADUATING FROM THE STUDENT LIFE YEEE

I am so glad to share it to all of you that I'm graduating in college this Friday!

Gosh, just thinking about it makes me kinda nervous cuz that means I'm saying hello to a new journey in life. Let's just say an adult work life is waving at me and that means a more sparse writing time. I'll still continue writing tho, but I can't make sure about its frequency.

P.S. I'm a bit salty to our college management. I am viable for latin honors with my GPA (1.74, barely scraped to it tho) but because of a tiny technicality, it turned into an Academic Distinction instead. I am salty abt this bcs my parents could have gotten to the stage with me.

from 15 years to less than 15 days,

the Batch of 2024

It feels just like yesterday that I wrote about how my seniors were graduating. Now, in less than 10 days it feels surreal that I am going to graduate too, as a part of the Shishukunj, Batch of 2024. I have been trying for a few days to conjure up words that perfectly reflect what I have been overwhelmingly feeling but how am I supposed to combine my entire school life, all 15 years into a single blog?

School had become a way of life, a routine I was accustomed to; it was the 5th alarm reminding me to get up or I would have to run till the very last stop to catch my bus, it was me laying my uniform the night before perfectly on the bed, it was me hurriedly packing my bag, and then forgetting to keep that one book we had to bring to class that day, it was my school ID card with the most obscene picture always being the top priority for turnout or it was “welcome to being a defaulter”, it was the teacher at entrance making sure my nails were just a little over being non-existent, it was the mandatory song singing of “Namasteeeeeeeeee Maaaa’aaaam” whether it be class 4th or 12th, it was the continuous taunts of teachers telling us how they had never seen students so indisciplined, and it was finally the moments where the complete class would laugh endlessly because of that one student who cracked the most hilarious joke which made even the teacher smile.

From colour dresses and chocolates on birthdays to traditionals on Republic Day, from participating in the house, & school events to completing the practical & project files like our lives depended on them, from running in ghoda badam chayi to running from our responsibilities, from being sad about losing 2 marks to passing by 2, from going on school trips to finally going away to college, from "we couldn't wait to grow up" to "can we please go back to the start?", we all grew up.

I am in this perplexing haze of how those 6 years turned into 6 days. I cannot believe the future we thought would never come has finally arrived. I remember wanting school to end so badly so I could live carefreely, who would have expected the school to be the last place I would get the utmost care and concern from my dearest teachers, didis and bhaiyas.

Ohhhh, I realize what made school my solace; it was all the friendships and the people I met who I treasure more than life itself, the memories I made that I will recall till my last breath as I'll gladly reminisce about the good old days, a time when life was actually simple. It has been all those little moments in between - picnics in the bus, loitering in the homeroom, grinning in the short break, trying to bunk classes in the washroom, trips to the recovery room because ajwain = solution to every problem, and sneakily trying to eat in the buffet when we were in 8th.

These walls of the school are the same walls that saw me grow. They saw me grow from the girl who couldn't wait to go back home from a new, strange place to the girl who doesn't want to go back home because she finally found a new home with new people in a new place.

The problem is I won't be able to let go of a place that has given me so much to remember. How am I expected to stop doing a routine that I have religiously followed for the past 15 years that too within mere days?

I hope a day comes when I will be able to talk about my past school days without this profound ache in the middle of my chest which constantly tells me that, Arisha, it is all happening too soon.

Homeschool Graduation Guide

Homeschool graduation stands out from its traditional counterpart due to its personalized approach. Homeschooling allows graduates to tailor their curriculum, pace, and learning methods, empowering them to explore their interests deeply or pursue advanced studies earlier. Unlike traditional graduations, where students follow a uniform academic timeline in large groups, homeschoolers shape their educational experiences uniquely. Nevertheless, graduation ceremonies remain a vital milestone for students receiving their diplomas, irrespective of the educational context.

my best friend keeps repeating how great it is that i'm graduating. he is truly happy for me.

i'm truly sorry for wanting to cling to this childish side who wants to hold on tight and never let go.

i will miss finding you at the same spots. sitting beside you always brought calm to the otherwise loud hallways. you already know the rest. i will miss you, calling out to me like you missed me. even though it's only been 2 days since we have seen each other. how will i do without the loving devil on my shoulder? i will miss hearing you laugh with your friends. sometimes i would wrap you in my arms. i truly wonder if i should have looked for you more often. i will miss being weird about fishes. your confidence has never ceased to amaze me. i wish you always continue shining so brightly and light up the stage wherever you go. i will miss smiling to you who i have barely talked to. maybe we should have talked more. maybe it's good we never talked.

but i'm not worried. missing is a sign that something went right.

so dear best friend i will grieve for awhile. but i will be fine. i'm not worried. i will grow up eventually.
