It is raining here. Drizzling for the most part of the day. Sun is nowhere to be seen. It is gloomy as it can be. As if to keep company, my head has been aching non-stop since the last three days. I touch my forehead and I can actually feel the pain. No painkiller is … More Nothing but a rant #MondayMusings

Since the day I turned 30, I hear many of my other 30-year-old friends talking about getting old. I too expected to feel old and was a little scared at the thought of turning 30 during my 27, 28, 29 year-old birthdays. Here I am, 32 now, I don’t feel any older. I mean, wisdom … More How ‘old’ are you? #MicroblogMondays #MondayMusings
