I am a political science student at Delhi University. I took the course to professionalize my nature of voicing my opinions on what is happening around me, especially pertaining to politics, though it is safe to say that I am stuck in the loop of reading age-old theories and doing weekly assignments. Trying to navigate my daily existence in a world where everyone appears to know who they want to be.
I'm usually the girl who lives in her head. I think that I am a person who believes in happily ever after, believing that good people exist despite having a reality check now and then. I have this complex urge to maintain peace at all times (basically, I hate confronting people). I love to read books. There is something about reading that makes me forget the real world. I just dive into the fictional world, living and being in situations that I am sure I am too afraid to be in or even voice out in real life.
I have been a part of a podcast called “Our Space,” where we used to address problems related to the teenage years through our own experiences and how to navigate through the highs and lows of school life. I guess that was the platform where I voiced my opinion to be heard by students at large for the very first time. Since then, I have tried to not only just speak what I think but to also write those thoughts that I once thought were too naive for anyone’s opinion and thus should not be put out there. I guess it’s a journey that I am on, and this is one of those mediums where I will express my opinions, hoping that it will help those who will relate to me and my way of seeing this world a little bit differently almost daily.
