Keni last shared their writing First Saturdays
The first Saturday of every month, I meet with two groups of ladies. One is a book club and the other is a group I became a part of after an online class. 

The book club is mostly Ethiopians and we read a book that has been voted by the...

I just discovered what these are. 
Life Time Deals. 

In the age where subscription is the model, paying a one time payment is becoming a discount deal. 
I was reading a Medium post about an AI tool that cost $191 per month. I was thinking that is a ridiculous monthly...

Discovering Friends

I had lived in a dorm before. Back in India at the age of 13 and 14. Fortunately, I had my elder sister with me. She was like a parent who guarded me from anything and anyone that could hurt me.

There was a lot of talk of ghosts and...

Good Day

Great sleep day yesterday.

I went to bed on time and did some meditation. Turned on audiobook for 20 minutes and feel asleep right away. 

Woke up this morning to a score of 86. And a crown.
That put me in a good mood right away. 

There was a heavy snow in...

A Unique Marriage Proposal

It was a beautiful Tuesday afternoon. I was walking towards the dorm in the University after a grueling two hour class on a particularly boring lecture. I wanted to get to the dorm and lie down for a few minutes. 

On my way, I ran into 3 acquaintances that stayed...

Last few hours

A few hours left of this year.
I have been counting down for this since 2020.

I have come to realize that a lot of people have been going through a lot the past 2 years. I was so buried in my own problems that I hadn't really understood the magnitude of...

Network

I joined a book club a few months ago. Since then I have read 3 books that they recommended. I liked 2 of the 3. 

The club does a mix of fiction and non-fiction which I had started to do a lot myself. So reading the book selected for the...

Counting Down

I am feeling better today. 
I see people sharing notes saying goodbye to 2021 in social media. And I keep checking the date. It is still 29th Dec. I have 3 full days and 3 full nights to get some of my things wrapped up. I refused to allow this...

Fighting

I feel a little under the weather. I haven't confirmed if I am positive for COVID but I am putting myself in quarantine. 

So far, I am able to smell and I have not lost my appetite. Just a little sore throat. Mild aches. I think my body is fighting....

Up Close and Personal

COVID is at my doorstep.

Someone very close just tested positive for COVID. 
The interesting thing was that he travelled to two destinations, one abroad some months back but tested negative then. 

It almost feels like this new variant arrived when people were legit fed up of all the things we...
