    Celebrating our company and living in the world of red dead redemption…

    If you got to live inside a video game world, which one would you choose?

    11/11/2026@Waakiye

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    To be honest let me tell you about the day I had yesterday…!

    My brother-in-law came over along with my real sister and one of my cousin sister’s came in too…!

    And,

    We had a blast…!

    It wasn’t part of any plan but we decided to have a few drinks and as we were getting drinks in, we emptied a bottle of whiskey a black dog, a bottle of shahi gulab from Rajasthan and half bottles of terai and Bombay sapphire…!

    By the time we were done drinking I had ordered roasted chicken, butter chicken and two panner gravy dishes,

    And we ate it after we were almost buzzed…!

    After waking up I brushed my teeth and took a shower as it was late and we had to do the things we do on bhai dooj…!

    Well,

    It wasn’t much—

    It’s just that after showering we wear fresh clothes and my sisters tie a mauli(Sacred red thread) on our right wrists and apply a teeka which is generally of sandal and rice mixed in it…!

    And they feed us sweets that we like,

    My real sister brought me a Pan based mithai(paan petha of sorts)

    And,

    My cousin sister brought for me horlicks barfi…!

    (Yeah you heard it right…!)

    And it’s absolutely lip smacking;

    Coming back to the prompt

    Choosing a video game world to live in…!

    Well,

    To be honest I’d much rather choose a world like Rdr2 where I can live peacefully with my family in a peaceful area where nothing goes bad every other instance and I have to fight a boss level enemy at every other crossroads…!

    Imagine waking up in the middle of the cabin and being awoke by chirping of birds and your horse/mare making noises telling you to release them from their grazing…!

    Also,

    Imagine having a small circle of people who you can fully put your trust in and imagine going into town and meeting them and running a business which also means securing some essentials that are required by someone from the town…!

    Imagine there being little to no concept of violence and being in a place where no one is in direct competition with you and forces you to change your ways or presents themselves as threats to you and your loved ones…!

    I’d choose rdr2 any day minus the violence which would much rather be a dream of many men who think like me…!

    Do let me know that sort of a video game world you’d like to live in…!!!

    Cheers 🥂

  • A trip to my friend in New Zealand…!

    A trip to my friend in New Zealand…!

    If you had a free round-trip ticket to anywhere, where would you go?

    03/11/2026@Waakiye

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    It was a great start for me today,

    Woke up around 7 spent some time in my bed contemplating things/scrolling reels;

    And around 8 I left my bed after mom decided on her on that it was time to clean my room today;

    So I freshened up, brushed my teeth,drank a cup of water and left for my morning walk…!

    Took mithu first for her usual routine,

    A few rounds maybe ten minutes max and she was back home because she wanted to poop;

    Yes, she exclusively poops at home and not outside…!

    Our queen mithu

    Khair

    Around 9 I was back home and had milk with panjeeri that we got from a relative as they travelled to Sonipat…!

    Which was amazingly delicious 🤤

    Coming back to the prompt

    A round trip to a place of my choice

    Well,

    My friend is all alone in New Zealand and if it were possible I’d like to give him company…!

    A destination fitting my choice;

    Because all the photos that I’ve received have made me fall in love with the scenes that are common for him but we have to pay a whole lot and travel up north to witness…!

    Like this is all natural for him and he can step out and view this…!

    Worthy of the visit and with the company of a friend with whom I can drink and take all of it in is something that I can skip everything…!

    Where would a paid round trip take you…?

    Do let me know in the comments…!

    Cheers 🥂

  • Ditching the noise-cancelling headphones to explore better…!

    Ditching the noise-cancelling headphones to explore better…!

    What’s one piece of travel advice you always follow?

    27/10/2026@Waakiye

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    It’s another good day today as I woke up around 8 went out for my morning walk and returned around 9…!

    As I’m writing this prompt at 9:30 and sense of responsibility looms over my head as I want to reach work by 10:15 which means id have to leave by 9:50 at last…!

    So I have to think and write this prompt soon,

    Yesterday night I thought about writing the prompt around midnight and scheduling it for 10 in the morning so that I can be carefree and reach work on time for once…!

    For once I’d advice if you plan to travel and explore a place;

    Leave your noice cancelling headphones in your bag…!

    I know many people say that you sometimes have to cancel out the noise,

    But,

    You went out to explore the place for a reason and if you don’t want to familiarise yourself with the environment and tell people what it used to sound before and what sort of changes you witnessed if you were to go there once again,

    You’d have nothing to tell your future generation who won’t be able to witness the world in a way you are because of fast paced development…!

    For example—

    I know what those little sparrows sound like,

    Yes those little brown ones who used to live in old buildings and some broken ones too..!

    Those chirps come to my mind with a visual that made me happy,

    But,

    Those are nowhere to be found in Delhi now…!

    Imagine you had no clue what I’m talking about because you remember them but don’t know what they sound like…!

    Just like this one…!

    Other than that,

    Travel includes reaching the destination too…!

    So,

    Take pictures,

    Enjoy the route and if you can enjoy the change in the cuisine try to have a few dishes too…!

    Remember,

    The same routine is going to wait for you once you go back, so make it worth your while when you are travelling…!

    Also,

    Do not forget to bring treats for the people who will be waiting for your return…!

    This counts as proof that you really did go out to the place and also you care about them…!

    What are travel pieces of advice that you give to people around you…?

    Do let me know in the comments…!

    Cheers 🥂

    Love Waakiye 🤍🤍
