Anxiety

1/3 Because the grapevine is wild; Every step, every uttered thought, Is going to reach it- Sooner or later. And you sow the seeds yourself The fruits it bears are your Missteps, mistakes and misadventures. Playing a twisted game Of acting like a broken record And as luck would have it, It'll only play when you are least prepared for it But are you ever, really? Nude by Harry Holland 2/3  It's like the uninvited guests Who try to barge in When you don't even have the strength to get up from your bed And there's just clutter- in your room, in your head You would give anything for them to think There's no one home. 3/3 Sometimes you are going to wake up  At wee hours in the night You'll be sweating And you wouldn't know why You'd want to cry and yell And your heart would race, running from the voices You'd doubt everything and everyone. Yourself the most. You'd apologize to yourself

Zara Online!

Shoppers, rejoice! Spanish brand Zara has finally launched its online store. Yay! I cannot contain my excitement and I am pretty sure neither can you. :D I personally am super pumped for Zara launching its online store in India. Clothes are the obvious first reason. A close second are their perfumes. They are to die for. Not only do they smell amazing but their sillage is unparalleled too. Bonus, they won't dig a hole in your pockets either. ;) Since I am a huge perfume aficionado, I keep looking for fresh and interesting scents and so earlier I mostly had to depend on my friends to get them for me. Not anymore. Yippee! There are very few brands whose collection is always trendy, chic extremely high quality yet affordable. Zara is undoubtedly amongst the A-listers. Gone are going to be the days where you could shop Zara apparel and accessories only if you happened to be in any of the 20 cities where the brand currently has its stores in India. The company has ti

I Hate My Siblings

They are always on my nerves. My brother trying his wrestling moves on me without my consent, from the choke-slams to the face busters, I have been at the receiving end of everything by this little Hulk Hogan (or so he thinks he is). He's eleven, short and slender; strong, nonetheless. I am almost always on the verge of either crying or yelling at him with such an intensity that it's a miracle I can even speak after. When he makes a mistake, I try to shower him with 'Pria's Eight-fold Path' to wherever it is that I am heading. His response is always positively mimicking me and disappearing into thin air after. I wish I had that superpower. So while we are on the topic of hating siblings, let me tell you about my youngest sister. Hold on a second, let me grab the list (which makes for a book honestly)of the times when she has justified me calling her an imp. From ruining my gifted tops to losing my favorite book to eating my exquisite Belgian chocolates which I

Hi there!

Welcome! You have come to my happy place. 💗 This has been a long time coming. I am not claiming to be an exceptional writer here but that does not change my immense love for writing. I have had an on/off relationship with it though. I gave it up periodically for more important things at the time; or so I thought. Only now have I fully realized nothing, I repeat, nothing is more important than doing things that make you, you. You don't have to be a pro at it or compete with anyone else as long as it feeds your soul and makes you happy. You don't have to feel stupid doing what you like because honestly everyone has their secret vices. Sorry, I digress. You'll find me deviating from what I am writing in pieces like these more often than not because that is how my brain functions. I have the attention span of a goldfish. Anyhoo, back to my relationship with writing. The 'off-times' have been meh but the phases in which I chose to write made me feel like m

I am insignificant.

A few months back I went to Chennai for some work.One day when I got free early I went to the local beach there. I love being by the seaside. It was so tranquil..so calm but it stirred a storm inside. The first thing that came to my mind was I.. we.. are so inconsequential.  Marina Beach, Chennai
