She is the "New girl in the city". Because of the title she chose for her she got taunted for not visiting her native now and then. Couple of months in the new city hasn't changed her but suddenly she is all different because of the stupid hair cut and that new attire in sari she just got after moved in to this new city.
Moving to the new city, and exploring it, is her ultimate goal of travelling. Everyone was aware about it but when she finally got the chance to accomplish the dream, she got stumbled upon her own dreams. Till today she is all confuse about what she wants from this new city, from these new challenges which is constantly nudging her thoughts when she opens her OneNote. She has yet to fill all her undiscovered "Ilaahi" diary pages. New York, Bali, Macau all these cities are yet to be explored and yet to be clicked. She is just 200km away and she wants to go far from this limit. But she is afraid of changes, afraid of losing those three or four loved ones she has in her life. She accepts that this is the change and she has failed to remain the same.
But what's fun in living stationary life in the moving city who changes it's color every night?
She has dream to capture the niche essence of this city, she wants to combine those pictures with her travel diary blog but she is scattered in her own thoughts of dreams. Reality hit her hard to the bottom that she started seeing Harry Potter and FRIENDS as fantasy now. Her writing gives her happiness when some senior at office praises it. But meanwhile she also wants to do the best photography of her time. People often have confusion about how to achieve dreams. She is confused about which one to chose before another dreams. Juggling between reading, writing and photography she became a content writer for the company. From writing in her diary to writing in the shared Google doc she finally grew up. Back in her college days she was "Girl behind the camera" and same thing gives happiness when someone calls her the official photographer of company. She grew up, either she wanted to or not. She accepted it. And then again for others she is changed!
Last year she chose to become what others wanted to see in her. But not anymore. It's long way to go and she cannot walk setting her feet in past. New city has certainly calm her nerves down! But she is stronger than she is! She is tolerant than she used to be! She is the main character of her life, she is the lyrics of her own poems, she is the angle of photos she clicks and she is the end of the book she is reading! With the fukc you off attitude and ignoring everything that disturbs her happiness she is learning to live in the city that got blamed for changing her way too much!
