    Being Indian American feels like living in a pressure cooker wrapped in a smile. You're told to be perfect, productive, palatable - never loud, never intimidating. But travel to India, and you'll meet folks who are bold, stylish, confident, and unapologetically gangsta. DEAR DIASPORA, YOU'RE NOT THE MAIN CHARACTER is a sharp, personal callout - not to India, but to the suffocating performance of "representation," perfectionism and intraracial competition that dominates Desi life in the West. This isn't a sob story - it's a truth bomb. A cultural essay that demands real freedom, not filtered branding. If you're ready to sip some realness, break free from the cage of expectations, and find your max pro aura - this is for you. 🍋 Bold. Tart. Sweet. Unfiltered. 🍋 Just like a glass of limeade on a hot day.

    In this book will be things I had to write for school. Some will be essays, but most will be short stories and presentations. Some are better than others, but I just wanted a place to put them because some are fun. I hope you enjoy my wired school writings. This will be updated irregularly being I don't know when I will have new stuff. It will be updated a lot though.

    Some thoughts are too loud to remain in silence, yet too quiet to be spoken. So I write them here-not to be admired, but simply so they may exist somewhere beyond me.

    Who are you when you're with me? There is a version of you that your family knows. A version your oldest friends remember. A version that appears around the person who makes you laugh until you forget to be self-conscious. And perhaps a version that only exists when you're alone. We like to believe that somewhere beneath all of it is one "real" version of ourselves. The truest one. The one that exists untouched by everyone else. But what if that's not how people work? What if the people we meet don't simply become part of our lives, but quietly bring out parts of us we didn't know existed? The People We Become Around Other People is an exploration of identity, relationships, memory, and all the different selves we carry through life. The friends who make us feel like children again. The people who make us smaller. The ones who teach us confidence. The ones who teach us fear. The ones who remember a version of us we've long since outgrown. And the uncomfortable question underneath it all: If everyone knows a different version of you, which one is actually you?

    ​"I collect all ideas... but that's all I do. I just collect the ideas, never create them. So I will now." ​Welcome to Things, Thoughts and Tangents, a series of non-fiction essays, late-night rants, and deep dives into the weird correlations that make up my everyday life. If you've ever felt stuck in the weird in-between of growing up, or if you have a habit of starting ten projects and finishing zero, you'll feel right at home here. ​Come for the literary rants, stay for the existential overthinking.

    I used to draw because it was fun... An essay about growing up with art, losing the joy somewhere along the way, and the weird guilt that comes from avoiding the one thing you used to love. No advice. No happy ending. Just the truth about what it feels like when your passion starts to feel like pressure.

    Behind every grade is a story that a number can never tell. In the demanding world of education, especially for students striving to excel, pressure, expectations, sleepless nights, and fear of failure can make a single score feel like a judgment of an entire person. But perhaps we were never meant to be measured by numbers alone. This is a reminder that beneath every grade is a student who is learning, struggling, persevering, hoping, and becoming stronger.
