Depth

You might be able to relate to this post if you are one of those people who tell them themselves “Every time I am happy, something bad happens” or “I have given up on hope because it just leads to more pain”.
In essence, if you are what people call a pessimist, you might be able to relate. If you are an optimistic person, maybe not so much. I personally, like to define myself as someone who is a pessimist realist.
Moving on from the little introduction, let’s get to the point.

Drifters

Dubai. A city that rose from nothing to something. A very big something at that. A city that has become the face of the country. A city that….is Dubai.
After spending 4 hours in the Mall of Emirates, I realized something very key. Dubai wouldn’t be what it is today without all the input it has had over the years. Input in the form of ideas and elements

Hesitations

To start, let’s talk about the conception of this post. Facebook.
I saw a person online. Hadn’t talked to them in ages, realized how much I missed them, bla bla same old bullshit.
But what I want to talk about is not that. What I’m talking about is the hesitation that followed when I typed the two letter “Hi” but immediately backspaced it to oblivion and said to myself, “Maybe not today.”

Who's it?

People have fought over many trivial things in the past few years. To name a few:
Messi or Ronaldo? Mars or Snickers? Adidas or Nike? Xbox ONE or PS4?
But none have riled up the masses like this one: Apple or Samsung? (Not iOS vs Android, mind you. That’s coming later. #Teaser)

Pixie dust.

Right now I'm sitting in a bus beside a dude watching Fury and headed out of a magical city called Bangalore in a country called India.
I entered this city last week and it has been nothing but memories and experiences which I won't forget for a long time(this coming from a forgetful person means a lot).
Every moment spent here was something to cherish, from the donuts I've had to the free stay(courtesy OYO Rooms) in amazing hotels. Each person I met was awesomeness in itself. And if there's one thing I've learned, it's that you could be in paradise and it wouldn't be fun if you didn't have people to enjoy it with.

Tornadoes.

We live in a universe which is ruled by probabilities. Probabilities of an event happening is always set some value. Be it infinitesimally small, the chances of it happening is always there.
Yet, there comes along times when certain people, things or events completely sweep us off our feet. Things that we feel are totally unexpected.

Systems.

If you're an Indian reading this, you will probably relate to every word typed here. If you aren't, then I guess you will get a glimpse of the Indian Education System.
When students get their results and go home, this is one of the few famous things that parents say to their children:
"You passed? Look at <class topper's name> ! He scored full!"
"92? Why couldn't you score 100?"
"Ohh wow. Our son passed. Someone give him a trophy."
And if some kid actually has the guts to tell that they don't like the subject/find it very tough or they aren't interested in something, this is what they hear:
