How would you know, you’re so dark – spellingepisodes

https://spellingepisodes.wordpress.com/2014/03/15/how-would-you-know-youre-so-dark

This blog speaks about instances I come across. How would you know, you’re so dark. Growing up with grandparents, I must say is something everyone must have the luxury of experiencing. It’s a 24×7 learning experience with them around. You learn why they think in a certain way, why they do things in only that particular manner and why almost everything you do, say or even think is not right in their rule book. Now in normal terms one would call this racism, but can you call one of your own a racist? Yeah ...

Books bring a story with them – spellingepisodes

https://spellingepisodes.wordpress.com/2013/12/08/books-bring-a-story-with-them

This blog speaks about instances I come across. Books bring a story with them. Photo credit: http:/ img6a.flixcart.com/image/book/8/8/7/rosha-400×400-imadgggaggqmepfd.jpeg. This thing I like to do often. Look at huge shelves with books that are thick, small, fat, glossy, paperback, hardcover, Indian, foreign, and all such kinds, and count the ones I’ve read. Just makes me feel good and intelligent, and smart, and intellectual also.😉. I then find out that the author belongs to the same city as me! Little...

Sex. It exists India. Deal with it. – spellingepisodes

https://spellingepisodes.wordpress.com/2014/06/28/sex-it-exists-india-deal-with-it

This blog speaks about instances I come across. Sex It exists India. Deal with it. So Mr So And So decides that sex education is worthless and must be banned from the Indian Education system, if possible from the Oxford Dictionary too. ‘Yo Westerners, do you hear me? It’s not ‘good’ for us.’. Mr SAS: Clear your minds dear Indians. Breathe in and breath out. Talk about things that don’t involve private parts and ‘that’ three letter word. Oh wait! Then lets learn Yoga instead! Regardless of the fact that e...

Where the soil speaks – spellingepisodes

https://spellingepisodes.wordpress.com/2014/02/20/where-the-soil-speaks

This blog speaks about instances I come across. Where the soil speaks. It’s been about two weeks since I’ve shifted base and I can’t help but feel out of place, still. This is where I grew up, this is where I am supposed to feel at home, these are the people who I should be able to connect with; but I guess the pieces aren’t exactly fitting in its puzzle. So then I thought of those who have lived away from their towns for ages trying to make a home away from home. Yes they’ve made a life for th...Do we h...

Disappearing daughters – spellingepisodes

https://spellingepisodes.wordpress.com/2014/10/15/disappearing-daughters

This blog speaks about instances I come across. Forty million girls do not just go missing, though in India that is the case. On a 10 hour-long flight, while I was trying to fight fear of height and motion sickness, I decided to switch on my tab and play something to get my mind of mental stress. Out of the long list I chose to watch Mardani. I’d heard Rani was really good and so was the story line; and sure I was convinced at the end. Take a minute and let that sink in. Even my Twitter feed has plenty o...

They robbed me of my peace of mind – spellingepisodes

https://spellingepisodes.wordpress.com/2015/06/26/they-robbed-me-of-my-peace-of-mind

This blog speaks about instances I come across. They robbed me of my peace of mind. Two masked men brake into my house. They sneak through my main metal door, then break the metal latch of the second metal door, open the pad lock on the second and then break my wooden door handles. Mind you, all of this is done in silence. I’ve been informed about the burglary at around 5pm. Unbelievable right! Well, knowing the kind of neighbors I have, I’m glad I was informed at all. June 26, 2015. June 26, 2015. You a...

Sneha Krishnan – spellingepisodes

This blog speaks about instances I come across. Thoughts on the go…. I write this while sipping on bubble tea on a road side pop-up cafe on one of Singapore’s busiest streets. It’s humid and with a constant drizzle on this warm afternoon; on this busy crossroad with bustling crowds waiting for the green light to cross the road. Vehicles moving at nothing more than 20kph; but the… Read More Thoughts on the go…. March 22, 2016. March 22, 2016. November 21, 2015. November 23, 2015. June 26, 2015. Forty mill...
