My little sister just moved in with me and It’s the best thing that’s happened to me.

okay so some context, i moved out at 18 for uni, been living alone in a different city for 9 years. came back home only for holidays. it was... not always easy growing up. my dad wasn't great to my mom, i remember her calling me crying a lot those years. he passed away a few years ago. my sister stayed back with my mom through all of that while i was sending money and trying to help from a distance. she finished her uni in the same city, stayed close to home. we handled things differently i guess.

so she just finished her master's, applied to the same company i've been at for 4 years, got the job (same branch as me lol), and we decided to move in together for at least 2 years partly to save money, partly because my mom basically suggested it and honestly she wasn't wrong. having someone you actually know in a city where you've mostly just... existed alone is different than i thought it would be.

it's been one month and i don't know. she's not the annoying kid i grew up fighting with anymore?? like at some point she just became this genuinely mature women and i missed that happening in real time. she helps me think through work stuff now. she COOKS. i have been surviving on like 60% of a normal diet for years and suddenly there is actual food. we joined yoga together. she drags me shopping sometimes which i pretend to find annoying.

we're also planning a 3 week europe trip this summer, first big trip just the two of us.
i think what i didn't expect was how much it would fill in something i didn't realize was missing. nine years is a long time to be somewhere without family. i'm proud of her and i'm glad she's here. that's it really, just needed to say it somewhere

A Cinematic Masterpiece: 'Halkara' Deserves More Recognition

 So, the weekend is almost over and Sunday is always special to me. In a sense, I was always wandering, taking myself on a trip to the valley. This story is quite different and interesting. In the middle of my journey, I felt ready and motivated to write about it, so here it goes. This story is about a single movie that inspired me to write. I had no plans to watch a Nepali movie called 'Halkara,' which had recently been released. As I passed by midtown, I wasn't prepared to watch it, but I found myself at the ticket counter buying a ticket for myself. When I bought the ticket, there were only five people who had booked the show, and all the seats were empty. The show was scheduled to start at 12:30 pm, and I entered the hall. Finally, the movie started. I cannot describe how amazing the cinematography, storyline, characters, acting, and overall vibe of this movie were. I still can't believe that this movie didn't receive a good response from...

Fall in love with me.

 In every moment, through highs and lows, my love for you remains unwavering. No matter what life throws at us, I want you by my side . Let's face everything together, carry each other's burdens, and keep our love strong Whether times are good or bad, I selfishly want you by my side. I just want us to stay together in 2024, like we used to, filled with love and adventures. We know the timing wasn't great, so let's be patient and wait for things to get better. Our connection, first kiss, and love experiences are special. I've never been as comfortable with anyone else as I am with you. Everything we do together feels new and exciting. We both know finding something like us is rare. I don't know how many times you've ignored my messages, but at least I am an older than you. I feel a responsibility to make you happy or correct some of your immature thoughts. Sometimes, being older is a good option. All I'm going to say is I love you and I will. Ignore me, b...

To the person who read this

To the person who read this, It’s been hard for you, I know, and it makes me sad that you don’t see yourself in the way I see you. Sometimes they are things in life that cause us to loose ourselves, and the way you have is so unimaginable painful. I miss your smile, the way your eyes light up the whole room just by the sound of your laughter. I miss the way you accepted the way you look in the mirror without cursing yourself out about how ugly you look. I miss the way you didn’t think of yourself as a failure because everyone makes mistakes, we all have flaws and we all aren’t perfect. It’s painful to see that no one around you seems to see the pain trough your eyes, but, stranger, I do, I see how heavy your heart is and how comforting the sadness for you might be, how afraid your heart is of happiness because it disappears in the end, right? You don’t know how much impact you have in this world and it’s sad to see that your demons fight against you and want to take over you. Because y...
