Going down the memory lane. ♥

And another year ends in about 10 days. It’s also an end to this decade. Wow!! Time really does fly. I can’t believe 10 years ago I was in school. I mean, that’s crazy, right?!

Fun fact: since I’m a 90’s baby- even though I’m in my 20s, I’ve lived 3 decades. The first one’s a blur honestly. I only remember my sister bossing around and fooling me to get her work done.

They say you might not remember the exact moment but you remember how a particular person or phase made you feel.

So considering I hardly spent three years in the 90’s, I remember our playtime, and my mother telling us stories about wolves and bunnies; the witches and the lion.

Okay, honestly maybe this happened in the early years of 2nd decade. Who knows? But let’s assume it was in the first. 😬

Alright another fun fact, can you believe I spent my entire 2nd decade going to school 🙆 And since most of you are probably my age, I believe you did the same too!!

Again, the first four years of this decade were AWESOME!! I loved everything about school!!

Even today if I close my eyes, I can almost see the flash backs running through my mind. Nothing specific as such: us in our red uniforms, chit chatting and laughing without a care in the world. I even remember my teachers.

It’s as if I can almost breathe that air – I don’t know how to explain it but it’s as if a part of me is still wandering there. Or maybe I still carry a part of it with me.♥

Oh, the second half of that decade was also beautiful. Kind of. I guess. Whatever. You know what I mean right? It was the beginning of my teenage.

I was uncomfortable in my own skin, was curious to “explore the new world”, wanted to bring a change and bla bla bla. So basically I was a normal teenager, which of course meant I considered myself unique.

Oh, along with all these things the second half of the second decade gifted me with one more thing. A person actually- My best friend!! And I am so glad and thankful for that. Technically, she isn’t my first best friend. But ten years and many many many more to go… so this one’s special ♥

Okay moving on, finally the third decade! Hmm, what a roller coaster of a ride this decade has been. So many lessons learnt, so many concepts (un) lerant. I’m not sure if I’ll cherish many moments of this decade but one thing is for sure- dear (?) third decade, I bow down to you.

The way you introduced me to life and wrote the most wicked pages of this book, I owe you big time. I mean from the beginning, be it secondary school or college or job!! Wow I really grew up in this third decade. And while it seemed impossible to even survive at some point, I did it!!

So yeah, I know this one’s a pretty big one, but believe me I tried to keep it as short as possible. This blog is not to preach about something or inform you folks about the way of living. It’s just another sweet reminder to whoever is reading. You guys made it. We all did!! And cheers to that.🥂

P.S. It’s also a beginning of my fourth decade (probably yours too, unless you are a product of 80’s). And I’m pretty sure it’s going to be another crazy ride! Who knows, by the end of it, most of us will be married, having families of our own (Whew!!)

I hope we’ll achieve all that we ever wanted along the way. So, fasten your seat belts ladies and gentlemen, and take a deep breath for this one. Happy journey baby! 😉
