Diary of An Indian Teenage Girl

Life of Tishi Mehta

"In a mad world, only the mad are sane."

I have this really bad habit of starting something new to do when my exams are just around the corner. Like for example I started watching Sleepy Hollow (it's an American TV show) just a few days back when what I REALLY need to do is study for my finals. This is what I should be doing right now, but no! I'm nicely sipping on my green tea, which is my current obsession btw, and typing away on my laptop. I know I know, but I'll study tonight, after I complete season 3 of Sleepy Hollow.

I'm not your usual 18(soon 19)year old college girl. I'm an 18 year old(soon 19) first year Architecture student. Well technically only one weeks left for my first year to end. I would love to start ranting about "perks" of being an architecture student, but I'd rather not; trust me it's for your own good. Whenever I meet my best friend Tanya, it is forbidden for me to talk about my studies. Well, let us just say when I start on that topic, there is no end to the opposite persons sorrow.

Maybe I'll bother you folks, later.

So apart from my academics,

*I'm from Mumbai.

*Single.

*18 going on 19

*I'm not fat, but I'm not exactly skinny. I'm curvy with little fats.

*I'm a not so typical Gujju chick with a typical weird Gujju family (HUGE GUJJU FAMILY).

* I love my parents, but let's be honest they get on my nerves way too fast.

* I'm short tempered.

*I get easily distracted (while studying, but obvious).

*If I don't like you, then... I just don't like you. Probably because you get on my nerves, annoy me or I just can't tolerate your existence. Or you bad talked about me behind my back.

*I can be tad bit manipulative.

*Bitchy and sly as a fox.

*I'm nerd who loves to read, and watch endless TV shows.

* Now hold on, do not even think about stereotyping me as your usually weird nerds. I am a nerd who loves to party, drink alcohol and just have a good time with my friends.

*One thing I hate is giving my notes to others, but I myself ask for them if I don't attend lectures, I know its double standards, but deal with it. If I give you my notes which means in the near future I might ask back for a favor.

*I am 5'4 (short girls gives the best hugs).

*I wear glasses.

*I am a loud person. You simply cannot ignore my existence.

*My laughter is weird.

*I am a dog person, but I get scared of those stray dogs. (you live in Mumbai and you'll know what I mean.)

*I'm a hogger. Food is BAE.

*I heart chocolate.

*I don't share chocolate unless you're one of my close friends.

*I NEVER SHARE MY MAGGI, UNLESS YOU GIVE ME A MILLION DOLLARS. Not really. Maggi is life.

*My taste in music is a fusion of trap, edm, rock, pop and country.

*I detest the new Bollywood movies, unless it has got more than 3 stars, then I'll CONSIDER watching it.

*I hate Ekta Kapoor and her stupid soap operas.

*Cockroaches creep me out. So does rats.

*I need to have green tea twice a day, with half a lemon squeezed in it.

*I procrastinate because I'm lazy.

*I'm moody.

*I cuss like a sailor (and I'm proud about it).

*I'm judgemental. But I won't spread rumours about it.

*I love my old red converse.

*I don't mind spending money on Starbucks.

*I love Bethany Mota.

*I follow YouTubers.

*I LOVE CAMERON DALLAS, I LOVE SHAWN MENDES, I LOVE NICK BATEMAN. KING BACH IS HILARIOUS AF.

*I am a Drama queen (I worship Blair Waldorf, Gossip Girl).

*NEW YORK IS MY DREAM CITY.

*I am craving for a sandwich.

I think I'll go make myself one, coz my folks have gone to 'Siddhivinayak Mandir'. We gujjus are weirdly religious.

*I am supposed to be a hard-core vegetarian, and I have been for 17 years of my life, until my 18th birthday when I finally discovered the wonders of chicken. I swear if my family got to know, they'll push me in Ganga to 'clean' myself from all the chicken I've consumed. The joke is on them though, Ganga is not clean itself, how will it wash away my 'impurities'?

*I am a Rebellion.
