The only drama I want in my life

The only drama I want in my life - K-Drama

I am done dealing with drama in real life. I have never been one to hide my emotions. If I like someone, I express it openly. Unfortunately, I show my dissent just as clearly. I cannot fake a smile talking to someone I am uncomfortable around or I do not want to engage with. I grew up imagining that everyone is like this. Unfortunately, I have come to realize over my 20s and 30s that it is absolutely not the case. People tend to be nice in front of others and are toxic in a closed environment. If one does not have something nice to say about the other to their face, it is best to be quiet instead of being hurtful. So, anyone who has hurt me intentionally, I have happily shut them off from my bubble. I cannot tell how much it helps me stay away from getting pushed over and over again.

I was even made to believe that I am the cause of all problems in the life of people around me. A few years ago, I would have been overwhelmed. Now I have learned to love myself and also know that people who care for me, they are the ones I need to put my extra focus on. I have so much love to give to people around me, I ain't wasting it on those who don't deserve it. The only drama I want and will accept in my life is K-Drama(Korean Drama). So leaving you here with some recommendations from what I have watched so far. They will make you laugh, cry and celebrate.

Until next time, Anneyong!

The loss of a friend !

My Father-in-law was not the typical FIL who was distant and would not interact with his daughter-in-law. Well, initially he was like that and then he warmed up to my presence and opened up to me. Over the last few years, as we spent a lot of time together, as we were all living in the same home, he became my close friend, mentor, guide and my biggest cheerleader. He was born in Shimoga, grew up in Amrutur with his aunt, started his family in Sagara and eventually retired into Bangalore. 80+ years, he has had the most enviable life. Don't mistake it for a rosy life or a life with no issues or problems! He was one among 11 - 6 boys and 5 girls. He was the 2nd child and as his mother had more children, she needed help raising the kids and so she reached out to her sister in law to take care of him in Amruthur - a farmland. He grew up under the care of his aunt and love from his cousins, who were all girls. He would eat fresh food from the abundance of the farm and also drink milk so...

It's been 5 years !

I still remember not being able to fall asleep on November 7th 2020. I usually crash and sleep almost the instant I decide to call it a day. But that day, I closed my eyes and was tossing and turning and I just could not sleep. It was almost 1 am the next day when I just about started to doze off when I got a call. A call that late into the night from a family member is always dreaded. I now knew why ! I was told that my Amma was not well and we needed to go to see her immediately. 5 minutes after we started, we heard the news that she was no more. The ride took 40 minutes and still felt like a terrible nightmare. Once I reached where she was, we decided to wait for a couple of more hours before informing our family and friends. At 4am, I started making the calls. Reiterating to each one that Amma was no more. It was the toughest to state it out loud like that when no one ever saw it coming. Just 12 hours back we were making plans of what sweets each of us would make for Deepavali. Sh...

A quick list of my current Top 5 favourite Taylor Swift songs

I thought I would put up my top 5 TS songs as of Dec 2025 because it will 100% keep changing. 1. All too Well - Like she mentioned on Stephen Colbert Show, yup , the 10-minute version is best to let out an emotional cry. I may not have a broken heart now, but I can imagine her hurt and I feel that hurt and I can listen to the song and feel the emotions and sometimes even cry thinking about heartbreak that is not there in reality, but an imaginary heartbreak just to let out a good cry. I dont know if you can understand that, but I would highly recommend being angry and sad at someone through this song. 2. Love Story - I think this was the first song I heard of Taylor and loved it and still do! This is the most romantic song as a young adult and makes you dream of all the sweetness in the world, waiting for someone to sweep you off your feet and be together happily ever after. She sold that dream and that fantasy. I still love the song for the time it takes me back to. 3. Anti...
