Aarushi Time in Memorial

TIME IN MEMORIAL

Time in Memorial

 Contemplated by the grim reality that her brilliance was, not much reflected in her intellectual pursuit Aarushi took refuge to introspection while her hands took to scribbling. A drowsy numbness penetrated her nerves and she felt prey to siesta. While she took to an ephemeral state of laze he took to the eternal state of slump. His demise transcended the moral and ethical conventions that blemished and tainted the subconscious Aarushi.

The living room of Mrs. Namrata Ray in the heart of Kolkata, the adornment is opulent.

There is an exit to the main door and an exit to the kitchen next to it.

Hen Party – A party with my best friend

They had not fixed upon the date as yet when I started to chalk out plans for my hen party, and honestly it gives me goose bumps when I look back and think about those good old days when I was young and full of bouncy spirits. Chris and I were dating for like some five long years and it was like an emotional roller-coaster ride throughout, and we survived the apocalypse and decided to tie the knot. So with my wedding round the corner I called up Aleina, my best friend to help me out with the preparations and to amend and incorporate changes in my hen party.
