#desi chaotic academia

[aurkitnarulaoge]

Is it me or every Indian eldest daughter:

Has epressing thoughts

Been suicidal at some point

"My mother dumps so much of her priblems on me..."

"But she's my mother..."

Anger issues

Either sighs when hears about something bad or fucking kills the person

Beautiful but if there's a younger sister— the younger sister is more attractive then.

Has a power trip

Somehow manages to feel like a villain all the time

"Mujhe choone ki koshish kar. Haath nahi milenge tere."— to someone who was trying to hug her.

*cringes at any sort of skin contact*

Has thought of arson at some point

"What's makeup? Maine to muh pe baby powder lagaya hain💀—"

Has the best clothing sense.

Wears pyjamas 24/7

Either has too much energy or no energy

Will fall asleep anywhere like a dad

SleepSleepSleepSleepSleep

Works hard cz has to pay back her parents

Wants to go away but has to stay

Feels like a shackled wild hunting dog.

HATES sharing her stuff

"You wore my shirt?" *burns the shirt*

Likes to draw but isn't appreciated unless academically so either tore all her works or occasionally draws on scattered papers

at the end of the day it's just me, my unfinished syllabus and academic stress

Masculine urge to gift her these >>>>>

Pov : he's that 'jab we met' wala Aditya but in a Delhi wala way.

He interestingly listens to your non stop bak bak when you both are sitting in the metro sharing your earbuds and listening to vintage Romantic Bollywood. Always admiring your face as you talk. Says "geet tum pagal ho chuki ho" to your "mai toh bhag Rahi hu" plans, goes roaming around with you, Holds all your bags while you bargain with that one shopkeeper in sarojini nagar goes on golgappas and kulfi dates with you, dances in the rain with you on "tum se hi" near India gate, gifts you janpath Wale jhumkas, his eyes don't leave you when you wear kajal and bindi, Brings that "ye lo jala do" energy in your life when something bothers you. he is a silent lover,He Pushes back your zulfe behind your ears, Feeds you roti sabzi while your mehandi is drying on your hands, helps you with your saree pleats and that's his way of telling you that he loves you,he is your 'Aditya'.

In a world full of "Aur batao"

Find someone who says "पता है आज क्या हुआ?"♡

Mere jhumke gawah hai,

Tere haathon gulaal lage bina meri Holi adhuri hai~

leaving ur country does feel surreal at times. like i have looked forward to this day where i’d leave the violence and trauma behind (at least physically if not emotionally). now that it's coming near i have so much cold feet. maybe i don't want to leave. maybe i’ll miss the food, the weather, the language, and so much more.

The audacity of an academically challenging degree to challenge me academically

At a stage where my LinkedIn has more notifications than my Hinge

🪷Hey everyone🪷

Im digging into a topic that's been on my mind lately and I'd love to hear your thoughts. Why is it considered normal for a boy to expect dowry from a girl but if a girl were to ask for dowry it's seen as wrong? Who decided these rules and more importantly can we challenge and change them?Let's have an open and honest discussion about gender norms and societal expectations, I believe it's crucial to question traditions that perpetuate inequality and to explore ways to break free from them so what do you guys think? Share your opinions and let's explore this together
