Between my last post and today, it feels like a really long time. I’ve been AWOL for far too long and as much as I didn’t want to, I had to. A week of continuous exams and then my summer internship had kept me busy. Exams were usual, like all exams are. You think you answered well, but the results show something else. Nevertheless, my internship made up for any lacking in my final score. As part of college curriculum, we had to intern at a newspaper organization. I, luckily got into a good company here – Bangalore Times. Writing articles, attending events, calling up theatres and some other engaging tasks familiarized us to the working environment in a lifestyle/entertainment based newspaper org.
By the end of the month, I didn’t want to leave. Some teeny tiny things ultimately did get under my skin at work, but I had too much fun with fellow interns to be eager to leave. Not to mention, the seniors there. I will always have bitter sweet memories of this brilliant first time experience. That being said, I’d gladly go back to work there again. The highlight of the internship being the good number of bylines I got xD
I have also been on roll, watching book haul videos on Youtube. The BookTube community is ever growing and just so overwhelming, the next thing you know, you are breaking into your savings to go visit the nearest bookstore. I am on a book buying ban (and so SELF CONTROL!) for awhile because my TBR pile is a tad too big at the moment. So until I get done with those, no new books. I did go through a trilogy and a couple of other novels – review will be up soon. It feels absolutely wonderful to read all day without any interruption ^^
Hope you all have been good.
