Why is a raven like a writing desk?
I haven’t the slightest idea.

Day 9
(What’s the nicest thing anyone has ever said to you?)
I wish I could remember. All the compliments, the genuineness. But I don’t, because negating all the beautiful and sweet things people have said to me are the black, ugly, twisted ones.
But I remember the first time someone called me pretty and smart and funny and adorkable. I didn’t really believe it then, but now,...

Day 8
(How do you feel today?)
Tired
Tired
Bored with school
Tired
Ready to graduate
Am I missing anything?
I got less than three hours of sleep last night. The tired is probably just for today, but everything else seems bound to stay.

Day 7
(Post your favorite quote)
“One of the few things I know about writing is this: spend it all, shoot it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time. Do not hoard what seems good for a later place in the book, or for another book; give it, give it all, give it now.”
-From The Writing Life by Annie Dillard

Day 6
(When was the last time you were truly honest with someone? What was it about?)
The last person I was truly, truly, truly honest with was myself. It took me a long time to realize that all these plans that I was making for college and my future weren’t really my plans. So, last week, I just sat down all alone, in my dark, gloomy room and thought about what I wanted.
It was difficult.

Day 5
(Write about a period of time in your life where things were not so good)
My sophomore year of high school when I was a total loser. I had no friends and hated my school. I just zombied my way through that school year.
It felt like life was never going to get better.
Thank god it did.

Day 4
(Write about a period of time in your life where things seemed to be constantly going good)
Last year, during winter break, when, instead of studying for exams, I spent five days watching all sixteen episodes of You’re Beautiful. I only stopped to breathe and eat.
That would have been my ideal winter break this year, too, but I never got the chance.
Maybe next year, when I’ll have...

Day 3
(If you only had 24 hours to live, what would you want to do?)
If I had that fore-knowledge, I would lock myself inside a library or, preferably, one of those old bookstores and devour every book I’ve ever wanted to get my hands on.
Too bad 24 hours wouldn’t cover even 1/10000 of the books I want to read.

Late again.
My laptop broke yesterday.
Hence the late-ness on the 30 day challenge.

Day 2
(Write about the best friends you’ve had over the years)
All through my elementary school years, my cousin and I were best friends.
It used to freak me out that I was best friends with my cousins, but, it was so natural. Like we were meant to be best friends more than we were meant to be cousins.
Now, of course, we’re just cousins. We lost that whole “connection” we...

Day 1
(Write 15 facts about yourself)
I’m Indian.
I make Indian jokes.
I love, love, love to read. People who “hate books” freak me out.
I like to make terrorist jokes because of the awkward silence that follows someone’s laughter when they realize I’m muslim.
I am not a terrorist.
Questions about bad grammar bother me.
Procrastination = story of my life.
