I am doing me!!

2010 was an epic year. I set some goals for myself and accomplished all of them. I got into nursing school, worked for a year as a therapist in an amazing facility, passed a semester of classes, traveled, lost weight, took salsa classes, volunteered, and basically did whatever felt right at the time!So when it came to make goals for this year I was initially at a loss! What could i do to top last year? Well after some thought here is what I came up with!

1. I will not buy any non essential articles of clothing until atleast March 1st. This is in effort to teach to me some fiscal responsibility (lol i sound like a politician but i can't really come up with another word). I really need to instill better spending habits in myself, and more importantly better saving habits!

2. I will not act a fool- hahahahha I am not in college anymore and I should really stop partying like I am! Dance, spend quality time w/ friends, laugh, have fun, but do not act a fool! =)

3. Could try and lose ten pounds... but honestly this one is not as important as long as I maintain where i am at. Also I really want myself to be comfortable in my own skin!

4. Learn how to belly dance (or atleast try) =)

5. Let go when I need to. The right guy will recognize my worth and put in the effort, if he doesn't, he was never the guy for me.

6. Finally, last but def not least: PASS NURSING SCHOOL!!!!! Put my mind, body, and soul into becoming the best nurse possible, and completing the program in high standing. I will stay organized, and stay on top of my workload, and hopefully i will succeed!

2011 I am ready for you...BRING IT ON!!! =))))))))))

RUTGERS baby!!!!

It's been a crazy four years, but today marks the official end of my undergraduate career. How can I sum my time at Rutgers in a blog post? Totally impossible. But I can say this... there is not a thing I would change. I have quite literally grown up with Rutgers. The things I have learned, the people I have met, the mistakes i have made, and my achievements all shape the woman I am today. I remember my first day at Rutgers... the nervousness, the excitement, and mostly the happiness. Funny thing is I graduate with those same feelings. I am nervous and excited for this new stage of my life, but I am also thrilled. I can not even begin to explain how I felt today. I came home and waiting for me was my first medical school book that arrived in the mail. I was considering going out tonight, but instead I began looking through the book. My dreams are becoming a reality. My future feels bright, optimistic, and rewarding! I am flying high, and the sky is the limit! But before I embark on...

Direction

The roads of our lives come with no maps. No signs to tell us when to yield, when to stop, or when to go. Streets, alleys, and highways are forged as we drive along. There are crossroads, and choices to be made. There are u-turns, and detours. Sometimes we take the expressway, and other times the local. Sometimes its sunny, and sometimes it rains. But we keep driving. We keep driving. We drive and we drive, until one day our engine dies. Where did the road lead us? What was our destination? What was our purpose? 21 years. 21 years i have spent on these planet. What have i done? What have I achieved. Why am i here? I am driving, but it is foggy outside. I am trying to defrost, but my efforts are fruitless. Everything you do, everyone you love... what does it matter? Who will remember, and moreover who will care? Most of us drive along paved roads, there are few that create the beaten path. No ones journey is alike, after all we are all unique. But aren't most of our destinations the...

The "Illegal"

Recently, Vishnu and I watched "Illegal", a 2019 drama film directed by Danish Renzu. This powerful movie tells the story of a young man who comes to the US on a student visa to pursue his dream of becoming a film director. However, his journey is far from easy and the story sheds light on the many struggles he encounters along the way. As I watched the film, I was overwhelmed by a sense of melancholy and gratitude.  The melancholy came mostly from my thoughts of my parents, aunts and uncles, in-laws, and other cherished people in my life who had faced similar challenges when they arrived in the United States nearly three decades ago. Although they seldom discuss their experiences, I know that life was incredibly difficult for them back then. Many of my loved ones worked arduous jobs, sometimes multiple jobs simultaneously, just to ensure that there was food on the table. They took on this demanding work despite holding college or graduate-level degrees in India. In their pur...
