2017: A dent in my life

Today is 18th October 2017. And 60 days from now will be my 21st birthday. This is the final year of my graduation since I am studying under BSc. Biotechnology. Pretty fancy na? Not as fancy as the vast syllabus we have. A lot has happened to me this year. So much that it shakes me to my core.

Firstly, I moved out from the comforts of my hostel (Ghaziabad) to Delhi for the coaching classes which I’ve taken for a better future. Being a small town girl from a conservative family from West Bengal and studying in another state, a completely unknown environment is thrilling. Lucky to have such parents who are supporting my curiousness and zeal to learn.

Secondly, I had to leave the handful number of people on whom i had been mentally dependent for 2 consecutive years. I’ve made peace with the fact that interacting with people ain’t my cup of tea. And so just like any other normal person I move between scrolling through others profiles on social media and my books.

Thirdly, I lost my mother on the evening of June 2nd 2017. The very reason for me to start this blog. I am still finding ways to cope with it and “move on” in my life which is hard for me but I am trying. The surge of emotions right now have blanked my mind completely and my hands are numb. May writing on this blog gives that peace of mind which I am finding desperately.

Moral of the story: we should continuously try to find and work on ourselves even though it seems exhausting
