Things I want to do in the New Year

I want to forgive And give. I want to stop being lazy And crazy. I want to do hard work, And get each perk. I want to stop wasting time, And I want to remove the grime That has tarnished my name, I want to get back into the game. I want to stop being lame And gain some serious fame. I want to succeed And I also want to kill my greed. I want to stop dreaming And start learning. I want to stop planning  And start doing. I want to stop this relaxation And start some restoration To what I used to be, I just want to be the old me In a new place So that I can erase the disgrace.

Shall I Quit?

These people always give me shit, All I want to do is quit. They think I am not a right fit, I should probably quit. Just because I don't know everything in git, Doesn't mean I should quit. They make me go into a fit, I always wonder if I should quit. It is taking a lot of perseverance and grit, To not quit. But some days were really lit, They are the reason I don't fully want to quit. They want to throw me in a pit, Guess that's why I want to quit. They are breaking my soul bit by bit, I have no other option but to quit. On most days I'm like that's it, I'm going to quit. They don't know how much of a hit  I was before they made me want to quit. All I do is sit, And think about if I should quit. They think I have no wit, They want me to quit.

Reviews of Restaurants That I Ate At Recently (Part 2)

V2 Prive I have eaten at this place once before this time but I think it was at a different branch than the one I visited recently. So recently I visited the Kilpauk branch and we ordered mushroom fried rice, honey chili potato, gobi manchurian dry and tomato soup. The gobi manchurian was awesome but I think the honey chili potato could have been more crispy. The tomato soup was too sweet and the mushroom fried rice had too many mushrooms. Overall I would give this place a 3.75/5 stars. This is a pure veg restaurant and has many options for north Indian food.  Mantras This was my first time eating at this place. I ordered vada curry with set dosa but I was hugely disappointed because the set dosa had too much turmeric and the vada curry had to much cardamom. The sambar also tasted somewhat sour. The coconut chutney was good though. Overall I would rate this place a 3/5 stars. This is a pure veg restaurant too and is located in Kilpauk on Ormes road. MilkyWay I have eaten at this re...

Books I Have Been Reading Recently (Part 7)

How to Lose a Guy Before Christmas by A. J Pine This book is about a gal Lucy who is unable to go home for Christmas because her flight is cancelled due to a blizzard. She somehow gets a ride through a rideshare app and is excited that she gets to go home for Christmas. She expects that her partner on this road trip would be a stranger but to her surprise it is a guy whom she ghosted a few months ago. She is obviously now wanting this trip to be over soon but it is a long ride made even longer by the snowstorm. The story is about how they reconnect I guess? I don't know much about the book since I just read the blurb and the prologue. I am excited for it though since it is a Christmassy book and it has some good reviews on Goodreads. I am listening to it on Audible.  The Black Pages by Nnedi Okorafor I am reading this book through Kindle and this is the second book in the Black Stars Amazon Original Stories series. The book is about a guy who returns to his hometown but finds that ...

Reviews of Recently Released Movies (Part 6)

Conjuring Kannappan This was actually a really unique movie. The movie is about a guy who plucks a feather from an old dreamcatcher but turns out that there is some black magic associated with the dreamcatcher and by pulling its feather, this guy is going to a haunted house in his dream every time he goes to sleep. He takes help from an exorcist and he also somehow makes two other people to pluck feathers from the dreamcatcher too. And his family also unwisely plucks a feather from the dreamcatcher. The story is about how they escape the dream and set free the spirits who haunt the house in their dreams. I would rate the movie a 4/5 stars. It is a Tamil language film which did better in my opinion than most Tamil horror films which were released this year such as DD Returns, Asvins, etc. A must-watch. Partner This is also a Tamil language film and actually this one was released back in August but it was recently released on Amazon Prime Video and so it has made its way to this list. Th...

Thoughts of a Lost Girl

Everyday feels the same, It's like I am going insane. I feel this numbing pain, And I feel like I am not part of the game. I used to want fame, And everyone to know my name. But now everyday I am put to shame, It's like I am being slain. Everything I do feels lame, But I still have that undying flame.

Animal Vs Human

The only difference between the animal And human - the largest mammal Is that the animal lives to survive, And the human lives to thrive. The animal wants to remain unseen, And all the human wants is to be seen. The animal wants to avoid pain, And all the human thinks of is gain. The animal worries about finding its next prey, And the human worries about his/her hair turning grey. The animal's only aim is to breed, And the human's aim is to succeed. For the animal, life is a game, For the human, life is about making his/her name.

Books I Have Been Reading Recently (Part 6)

"SantaLand Diaries" by David Sedaris This book is about a guy who works at Santaland as an elf. This guy is also the narrator of the book and he talks about his life in Santaland, about the customers who are mostly parents with young children, about his colleagues, etc. The book is quite short and has only 3 parts. I have completed the first 2 parts and I fell asleep while reading the 3rd part, so I have to read it again. Was reading this book as a part of my Christmas TBR but the book is a huge disappointment, it was boring and repetitive. I am listening to it on an audiobook format and I will complete it soon. I will most likely rate this book a 2/5 stars or I might DNF the book. "The Hen Who Dreamed She Could Fly" by Sun-mi Hwang This book is only about 150 or so pages and so I will complete it really soon hopefully. The book is about a hen who wants at least one of her eggs to hatch. As soon as she lays her eggs, they are taken away from her, so she refuses to l...

Thoughts of a Wandering, Lost Girl

Avoiding going to places that are freezing Cos it is easier to stay in my comforting Shell. Well, Doing things that are easy Cos I want life to be breezy. But lately its all been a mess, I didn't know I was someone who could transgress. On the outside, it looks like a fest, But on the inside, I can see the pest. The only solution Is my evolution Only that can stop this endless cycle of delusion And start my revolution. What is it that I am doing wrong? Does it have something to do with me writing this song?
