May 2025 Recap!
Hi Readers! 5 months down, 7 more to go! Unbelievable how fast yet slow the time is going. May has been unpredictable in its entirety, which I equal parts loved and hated. Picnic with a friend, concert with parents, leadership meet in the office, a play with parents, fangirling...

Ed Sheeran Concert Experience – Part 2, Ten Years Later!
Hi Readers! I have been listening to Ed Sheeran’s songs for over a decade. He is always in my Top 5 artists on Spotify Wrapped. But after missing his concert in Mumbai last year, I didn’t feel anything. No FOMO whatsoever. I even forgot about it right away. Because...
