Fishing Around

I confess to not editing this post too much. Mostly because it has been a long time since I have been stewing about a variety of topics to write about and yet I wrote zilch. I know, it's the editing and the over thinking but one incident really stuck deep: I heard  the popular Youtuber and blogger Saloni Srivatsava say very candidly " No, I am not a perfectionist."  I know many of us want that tag of being one.

 Hello from the inside!! I am quite proud to say that I am a dreaded category in the world - a single educated woman with no intention to stop my education and very little interest in marriage.

This blog will feature a variety of things related to my work life and I am yet to find a structure to it, so for the time being I am hoping that it will be one of the many wild quiet spot slowly making its way to the greater wilderness.

Mostly, this blog will function as a research journal with lots of observation thrown in that require deeper thought. But I hope you have fun reading !!  So take a leap and stay afloat, folks!! ~Akhila
