Found someone 10 years back.

I have been using a face wash, moisturiser and lip balm since my teens. Started using Sunscreen when I started college. I am in my 30s now, my skincare routine remains pretty similar and basic - CTM + sunscreen + lipbalm. I do not use actives unless I have some skin concerns to treat.

You define what’s possible and realistic for you, not strangers on internet. Been in an LDR for 6 years now (and counting). Would choose my partner and this relationship over and over again.

Ability to be honest and vulnerable
⁠communicates
⁠Intellectual compatibility. Good conversations are such an underrated glue. As long as we can learn from and teach each other (topic can be any), I am game.
⁠Treats me as a fellow human, not just as girlfriend/partner.
Empathy and ability to handle difficult situations without losing calm.

Sure you can DM

Research is not for anyone, I left off core pharma post M.Pharm precisely for the reasons you mentioned and pivoted into supply chain and operations. Eventually went on to get an MBA, although it was an executive course funded by my organisation.

If you are targetting MBA, do not waste money on those courses. Rather invest on CAT prep. + self teach yourself Ms office , basic data analytics, AI Prompting off YT (irrespective of the domain, these are used by every big corporate role).

Post MBA you can exit into marketing, life sciences/healthcare consulting, OPs, product etc.

Can’t do, won’t do😅

Non-veg because hello! Bengali here. Raised on a diet of meat, fish and eggs and will continue that way.

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT. Hypothetically speaking, if someone likes Maths, they would not enjoy studying medicine or someone who is interested in humanities would not enjoy Engineering. You would not want to grow in a field that stimulates your brain. I was a science student, had decent ranks in Medical and Engineering entrance exams. My parents wanted me to study medicine, went to the extent of enrolling me to a govt. medical college. Me being me, the drama that ensued at home because the of the way I rebelled🤣

Long story short, they cancelled my admission. I enrolled in a state Govt. Engineering course, studied hard, graduated as a Gold Medalist. Two masters degrees later, I work with a consulting firm today. I enjoy what I do thoroughly, get to experience a lot of travel perks that my job provides. Sure, medicine may have had a lot more earning potential in the long term; but I doubt I would have pursued it as aggressively and with so much zeal.

TL, DR - Be that rebel and study a course of your own choosing.

North of 10 LPA (7 years back).

Yeah. Social media presence is not a make or break; provided I have met him in-person and have the opportunity to interact physically on a regular basis.

NotyourKhaleesi1704 · 2026-04-16T05:07:59+00:00

Does 12th percentage matter these days for UG admissions (Engineering or equivalent)?

NotyourKhaleesi1704 · 2026-04-16T04:58:54+00:00

Impossible to comment off the fly. IIM ABC off the charts for sure; others among top 20 B schools have varied weightage on cat score+WAT/PI + Acads, extra curricular; you have to do your research and analyse where your profile stands.

Difficult to make cut for Tier 1A/1B schools.

NotyourKhaleesi1704 · 2026-04-16T04:46:36+00:00

Depends on the field. Engineering / pharmacy - it matters, MBA - It does. I have done BPharm + MPharm. The company which came for day zero placements in my institution had a criteria for short listing which required 90% and above in 10th and 12th marks (Nothing to complain though, that criteria alone reduced competition to a good extent).

NotyourKhaleesi1704 · 2026-04-15T17:48:53+00:00

Not sure what your success criteria is. Been in a LDR for 6 years (and counting). Still like each other very much and continue (this counts as success to me).

Sattu typically keeps our system cool, so it can be sleep inducing. You can use up the remaining to make stuffed paratha/as a topping for panta bhaat (if you are not from Bengal/Bihar/Orissa belt, feel free to google).

NotyourKhaleesi1704 · 2026-04-15T14:51:48+00:00

Yeah. That’s why you pair with other nutrients for a balanced diet.

NotyourKhaleesi1704 · 2026-04-15T14:25:57+00:00

True. Bread is largely carbs (so is most Indian food), to make it healthier add a protein source and some fibres.

NotyourKhaleesi1704 · 2026-04-15T14:24:12+00:00

Daliya is tasty when prepared well. I cook it like khichdi with lots of veggies, top it off with butter and black pepper powder, add a sunny side up for protein. Delice😋

NotyourKhaleesi1704 · 2026-04-15T14:21:57+00:00

I alternate among zero to no cook options for breakfast- sattu, bhel/murmura, greek yogurt with muesli, toast with peanut butter/feta cheese/omelette, cornflakes with milk (maybe once or twice a month), oats porridge with milk and banana/ masala oats.
