  • My drink of choice

    What is your favorite drink?

    You won’t believe it but I love to drink,

    Not in an addict sort of the way but,

    Coffee, tea, and other things I’m in…

    During the weekends I just try to mix it up,

    Just last year I got myself a set of bar tools(expensive one),

    And ever since I try to mix and match and try to mix bitters here and there,

    Also some virgin drinks for non drinkers too…

    I made a virgin mojito for my sister and mom,they absolutely loved it…

    I still have a long way to go and learn how to make better mixes and drinks…

    And I hope that I can get better at this one day…

    Almost forgot..

    My favourite drink is one I used to have with my father,

    whisky with little water and a few ice cubes..

    Brands I’d like to quote here are black dog and some jack Daniel…

    Good times…

    Cheers 🥂

    (Mention your favourite drinks in the comments let’s see what you like to drink… And try to share how you like to drink…Maybe I’ll try making it too…)

  • My favourite people?

    Who are your favorite people to be around?

    Contrast to what I see here,

    The replies to this prompt today that many people have written…

    Some have their family, their friends, their boyfriends, their girlfriends…

    My favourite person has been pen and pad, the one which knows my raw emotions;

    It has been with me through thick and thin;

    And now It has taken its place in my notes application on my phone…

    I have a few friends(mind you…)

    I’m not a loner,

    They have their lives to live too and sometimes our schedule doesn’t match up so most of the time we are in kind of a rush whenever we meet…

    That’s the problem with having a life and earning money and having a dream of making it big one day…

    Other than that,

    I feel more comfortable when people have a like minded thought,

    Where they think about something and dwell on it and try to understand and get to the heart of the problem(if any…)

    But,

    In the long run,

    I’ve felt better pen-ing my feelings down, like what I was thinking at the moment how I was thinking at the moment,why I was thinking….

    Many such questions…And their answers,

    Which are yet to be found…

    One of my other obsessions…

  • A pair to remember

    Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.

    This was the mid 18,

    I started work at my own family business and I started to earn(little money..)..

    Because I started as a helper at my own premises and I did want to go through the entire ladder of management from the worker to the actual owner of the place…

    One day, me and a few of my friends made a plan to travel to a hill station, and we planned to buy stuff for the trip as the day came…

    It was two days before our departure, and I planned to buy some shoes to cruise through the rocky terrain on foot, and not able to find any that would work for me..

    After a lot of worries I finally entered the woodland outlet, and found a whole medley of shoes that were an exact match of my description of course there was a markup of the brand…

    There I saw steel toed boots that were absolutely amazing, compared to the rugged ones that I wore at work which were made by a local company,

    On examining that I felt a vast difference between the ones that I had and those I saw,

    The catch

    those were upwards of 5k and buying that would mean I wouldn’t have enough money for the other one…

    So I put them down and started to look for something that would fulfill my current needs,

    As I saw the pair of blue shoes that matched what I had in mind and wanted to buy, on asking they had it in my size…

    That day was the first time I spent a good 3-4 k on a shoe that still stays with me on good and bad days..

    And it was a beautiful trip and I caught some beautiful pics too…

    They took me where each and every shoe does to my destination and back home safely and in good health…

    Thanks for tuning in, I’ll share some pics of the trip here..

    Cheers 🥂

  • Prompt 001

    Share one of the best gifts you’ve ever received…

    Do you remember the gifts you received..?

    Do you really?

    It feels like my whole life I pretended to have what I needed,So I didn’t have a need for a gift ever…

    Maybe this is basic courtesy in my culture to refuse;

    Because gifts cost money and no one should spend money on things that bring temporary pleasure to this mind…

    Maybe this is the type of thinking I had(I still have),

    That taking gifts from someone is considered bad, maybe they will(they definitely will) expect you to give them something of equal worth or more, because human tendency (duh!)…

    And when they feel that you skimped on their gift(which they definitely will), they won’t say it directly but it will be noticeable in their behaviour, maybe next year around they will spend less(money)…

    Not meeting your expectations, with their gift, and this cycle continues until one of you refuses to bring one or gifts an expensive one(less likely..)

    Restarting this cycle yet again…

    Synopsis

    (You can give expensive gifts but only with a discretion that you might not get something of worth equal or more in return…)

    ……

    (P.s. my best gift was the life that I was blessed with which is a medley of bittersweet moments, Other than that it is a watch that I bought for myself…)

    Hi,
    this is my very first post here on this app,
    I’d try to be active here too so bear with me…

    This is the person who loves to write freely without any boundaries and anything/everything that piques the interests of this little brain…

    This might be a little skeptical coming from someone who just started here on this app but,
    I have been scribbling here and there,
    so,
    I thought why not use the time and efforts where all of my works will be mine and ultimately I’ll be able to look back at it when I feel like,
    Am I right…?

    So,
    here comes my intro…
    This is Waakiye,
    A person from Delhi, India
    who has sort of a passion for writing and scribing in his notes app ever so often,
    and you too will be witness to the ideas that spring up in this mind of mine,
    and I hope they will give you a new perspective or many…

    That being said,
    “Let the writing begin…”
