  Sometimes, it feels like procrastinating the shit out of yourself is the only way to escapism. But mostly it leads to a demotivating numbness. Many would consider this as depression but, IT IS NOT. Also, what is not a case of depression is “high stress”. In fact, stress and depression are used interchangeably in many situations. In simpler terms, when stress becomes overrated, people start calling it as depression. I am no psychologist and I am not an optimist who gives life changing advice. But I am the kind of guy who gets cringed out by the fuckers who claims that they are depressed when they are clearly NOT! The best way to handle stress for me would be reading books, listening songs and watching movies.  My friends have different methods to burn out their stress. My friend SJ would ride a bike to steam the stress off his head. Some may find running a mile to burn out their stress and even talking to girls would decrease the stress to a certain extent for some...

Beyond the Clouds I couldn’t able to sleep that night. I ended up dozing off at around 3 AM. It was my mallu friend who woke me up.

The first thing I did was, I took my printed copy of boarding pass. After a long queue for checking the body temperature and my AADHAR card, I entered inside the airport.   ...

End of my Isolation With only two more arcs to finish Fairy Tail, I stopped watching it. It was the first week of July, I was planning to finish Fairy tail before 10 th of July. That’s when that event happened. I was enjoying my days in solitude and isolation happily. Little did I know, people were starting to vacate my PG. During the end of June, the cooking people of my PG went to their home town due to this pandemic and left us with no food. For nearly 10 days, we were managing without a proper food. We started cooking meals and dal and it was devastating. That was when I decided to go back to my home. To go home, I needed Entry Pass to my State. I was staying in Bangalore and I applied the entry pass for like 5 times asking permission for going to Tamil Nadu via car. Each time it got rejected. I almost lost hope and that’s when the entry pass applied by my PG Mates got accepted. I was shocked and then later I came to know that theirs got accepted because they’ve app...
