I love when people switch to their native language or mix words around, they immediately look so settled. Being comfy that way in oneself is completely chic.

Knowing another language is awesome. It gives you a slice of omnipotence. Once you become fluent in a language, there’s no translation time in your mind- you don’t have to hear the word and go “oh this means this”. The word just is- you hear it and it instantly registers. It’s kind of like being able to be in two places at once in your head.

my neighbours are white. my friends are (mostly) white. i sometimes fear that my insides are white or turning white - im unsure.
when i speak in my mother tongue, barefoot on the driveway, i feel more connected to myself than i ever have before. i feel unapologetic, and i love being loud as i learn my language. my mum corrects me and laughs at my pronunciation. but my neighbours dont know. and that feels good.
so ?

I love hearing people speak other languages that i can’t understand it feels so distopic and sureal that whats coming out of their mouth makes sense to someone else. Oh and other alphabets go crazy too, like you are telling me that that bunch of lines have a meaning that i dont know? ughh so cool.

it's totally cool to age and society still isn't equipped to deal with that.

Sometimes you try your best and everything seems to hit the fan no matter how much you try, so you take that raincheck and take yourself out for a day.

This is what I call it hahahah made by mums everywhere but the greased up version is sold along stalls in Mumbai. Two regular slices of white bread, buttered, and the middle filling is cream cheese with red onions, coriander/cilantro, tomatoes and some minced chillis. All veggies chopped mini cube size so they blend with the cheese. Toasted crispy.
