Why do the vacation days fly by? Why does the clock drag during working days? I mean, time kinda flies either way but while working every second makes its presence felt. Vacation days, not so much. Just the leisure and the fact that there’s no need to login, feels amazing. In the six days…

Dear Diary | Eid Break 2025 | Day 2
I was talking to my sister today. She was a bit upset that she could not perform ibadah as per her usual Ramzan routine. The only thing that has changed from Ramzan 2024 is that now she has a toddler to take care of. My nephew Abdul Haadi is only 6 months old, and he’s…

Sunday Screed | Apples at home
For years, I’ve wondered why people buy apple products. My reason is simple: @amazondotin pe sasta mil raha thha 🤷♀️ Forget the sleek design, the ecosystem, or the status symbol debates—when the price tag gets a discount, suddenly, we all become tech enthusiasts. It’s almost poetic how Amazon’s Great Indian Sale can turn even…

Daily Prompt | What’s My Favourite Word?
Hello there, fellow humans of this wonderfully chaotic world! There was a time that I wrote for daily prompts for months, only to be pulled inside a hurricane called Life. It’s time to start again. And this one is simple: what’s my favourite word? Is it just me or do these prompts recycle every few…
