The story behind Here I Scribble — October Blogging Challenge Day 4

Writing has always been dear to me. It is my preferred way of communication— to other as well as myself. Whenever I am confused or overwhelmed, writing helps me. I love writing in my journal, and reading it at random times later. If I have to tell someone how much they mean to me, I'd prefer writing a letter. If I am to explain myself, I am able to put across my feelings and thoughts much better in writing. Even random scribbles in a notepad somehow help me relax.

When I first started blogging, it was because of a stay-at-home situation. All thanks to the reckless people on road! I met with an accident and had an ankle fracture, because of which I had to stay in bed for few months— which made it really hard to keep any private journal. A friend of mine suggested keeping an online journal, and I stumbled upon Blogger trying to find an escape. That's how I was introduced to the blogging world. Although once I joined, it wasn't so much of a journal. I took my scribbling on last pages of notebooks and journals to the blog, and now Here I Scribble.

A day in San Francisco — Memorial Day

If you have followed my blog for sometime, you probably know about my big move across coast. It's been a few months being a Cali resident, but I haven't gotten out as much as I would have liked. Maybe once we move to a place, it kinda loses the tourist charm that it has when we visit for a weekend. Don't you think? I decided to make this right and this Memorial Day weekend, I spent my first Touristy day in San Francisco. Like anything else, I made a long list of places to see, and spread it across three days based on distance proximity. Yes, it was a whole weekend plan but life get in way and hence it ended up being just a day trip. The day started with a little detour at Bay Trail, near Shoreline Park, followed by a quick brunch at Crepe Vine and a beautiful long drive to the city. The Painting Ladies at Alamo Square was our first stop. These are basically just houses with a Victorian architecture and painted with three or more colors. The whole area l...

Transient Tuesdays: Don’t Be Afraid of Change

There are two types of people: those who fear change and those who actively pursue. I have always been an active pursuer of change, while my brother was not. I was the kid who changed my after school activity until I found what I really loved, with no fear at all. I was the one who changed my hair in middle school, who became a leader in a club during my freshmen year of high school, and who insisted on touring the country at 17. Change is a choice, and is an active endeavor. And so is not changing. We decide the direction our lives take, and we can either do so with fear or with confidence. Making changes keeps life the way you want it, on the track you wish to take, and is completely you’re choice what to do, or not do. Change shouldn't scare you, because it’s a tool to help you make your life just the way you want. Although staying where you are is comforting, change can make you grow and improve your situation. So go change your hair, your job, your city, or w...
