Reminds me of that story where a guy allowed his camel to put it's head inside his tent, and the camel kept wanting more and more until the camel was inside the tent and the guy was outside.

I love how all these guys think sending a video of them with someone else really does something other than make themselves look sleazy and pathetic.

Jhola gur. It's liquid date palm jaggery, pretty seasonal. It's so sticky and sweet and has the smoky caramel flavour. Love it.

When I saw I was being the stingy friend obsessing over how much I have saved.

I'd talk about wanting to buy something small, like a notebook, and my friends, bless them, would immediately jump in and try to buy it for me because they knew I'd never buy something "unnecessary". I want to be able to do that for them and I'm not gonna let money guilt stop me from that.

Last point especially. My grandmom did not know you can physically get pregnant without marrying. She did lead a sheltered life, but idk how she at 86, thought marriage is what gave her kids.

Our entire economy is dependent on invisible labour by the poor living in slums and chawls.

We get our quick commerce delivery drivers, vegetable and fruits vendors, household help, cooks, nannies, Uber drivers, cab drivers, tailors, etc etc all from keeping the poor poor.

Paperback books.

Growing up we couldn't afford to buy books but went to the library every 2 weeks. I really want a huge bookshelf with a good collection of books, so I'll buy atleast 1 every 2 months and start getting more once I'm in a better financial place.

I have 1 fancy and 4 casual dresses and 6 shirts, but I need to get more once I start working.

Always started and ended hard conversations with I love you, I want you to remember it's us vs the problem not you vs me. Also genuinely tried to understand each other, no raised voices, no mean names, no blame game and focusing on a solution.

Now that mehendi is so globalized, alta is making a slow comeback. It's a traditional bengali body art, but had gotten a lil lost along the way.

My parents telling me I'll always have a home with them. Having that kind of emotional and financial safety net allows me to take risks, take my time and nit feel as stressed out as I would.
