The week that was: #5

Hello everyone! This is time for a recap of my week. Let me start by saying that it was the best week of 2018. Why, you ask? Monday and Tuesday were regular work days. I have managed to bring down the defect count from 9 to 5. Yayyy me. For others, those two days were…

How far should one go to get reviews?

How do I find myself as a writer? – raw, unrefined and unpolished. How do I find myself as a marketing: bad. No, pathetic. PATHETIC. Terrible. I can go on, but you get the drift. How do I handle the review? One review (good or bad) and I run to my room, hide myself under…

Self Doubt 2.0

I had planned to write a post celebrating my journey. Today, ‘Uff Yeh Ladki’ completes six months of  its digital publish. Instead, here I am. Irony? So what brings me here with a continuation of my old post? Self doubt, of course. I know I shouldn’t; but I do obsess over the ratings and reviews….

The week that was: #3

Hello everyone! This is time for a recap of my week. I realized that I ain’t sharing anything about the weekend. That is primarily because my weekends are almost always the same. I do a lot of dusting, cleaning, laundry, and what not. I try to spend some time with my family and also on…

My fashion statement

The fashion scene has changed dramatically. The e-tailer websites run one promotion or the other throughout the year. Local manufacturers produce lookalike or knock-off designer wear with cheap material and at low cost I bought a sweater top in 2014 winters. I had an awkward moment in cafeteria when I saw another woman wearing the…
