Just Another Random Blog :)

ChessChess PersonalitiesOff topicLichess
Hey there! This isn’t one of my book drafts or a chapter from the memory-themed series I’m working on — just a random blog from a random person who loves talking (sometimes too much) :P

yappin' starts now :)

About Me

I’ve been lucky enough to travel all over India, living in almost every corner for at least a month — sometimes a year — thanks to my father’s business trips ;) But here’s a twist: I’ve spent most of my childhood in the USA, which is probably why my Hindi skills are... let’s just say “unique” :))
I can speak seven different languages — French, English, Hindi, Punjabi, Bengali, Spanish, and Tamil. But here’s the catch: there are two of those languages — both from specific Indian states — that I can speak fluently but just can’t read. I’ll let you guess which ones ;P

Family & Vibes

I have a brother (@bombing_knight) who is both my biggest annoyance and one of the most important people in my life <3 We argue, tease, and annoy each other constantly — but he’s always there when it matters :))
He’s ridiculously good at chess — like, “play him once and you’ll question your entire strategy” good :P He’s also pretty well-known on Lichess (don’t tell him I admitted that, his ego doesn’t need more fuel ;P). I swear, his inbox is always full — and I mean full.
Some days I think people follow me just to find out more about him. But that’s fine... it’s not like I don’t give them a reason to ;)

Hobbies & Passions

I’m all about lawn tennis, chess, and books. Oh, books. I can finish a really good one in a day or two, and I usually read multiple at once :)) If it’s interesting, I’m glued to it until the last page. I’m also toying with the idea of writing a book of my own someday — I’ve even made a few blogs about books already ;P

Fun & Random Facts About Me

  • I love sleeping. Once I’m asleep, you can try alarms, shouts, or even a marching band — I’ll wake up only when I decide :))
  • But once I’m awake, I can’t fall asleep again until my body’s “system” says so — even if I’m lying in bed for 2 whole hours :P
  • I’m the type who will say “I’ll reply later” and then forget entirely... but it’s never intentional ;)
  • I could survive on tea/coffee for days and call it “self-care” :))
  • My playlists are total chaos — one minute it’s emotional movie soundtracks, next it’s dance beats, and then suddenly... 2000s nostalgia hits ;P
  • I can have a full conversation with emojis... and textual emojis ;)
  • I’m either the quietest person in the room... or the loudest, there’s no in-between :P
  • I’m great at keeping secrets... especially my own ;)
  • I’ve laughed in situations where I definitely wasn’t supposed to :))
  • I can remember random facts from years ago, but forget what I had for breakfast :P
  • I love staring at the sky — sunrise, sunset, or just random clouds ;)
  • I’m the person who will take pictures of my food but forget to eat it until it’s cold :))
  • My brain works best at night, even if I complain about being tired :P
  • I’ll start a show “just to check it out” and somehow finish the whole season in one night ;)
  • I’m a certified pro at procrastinating... but somehow still getting things done at the very last minute :))
  • Sometimes I read quotes or random sentences and overthink them for hours ;P

Personality in a Nutshell

I’m an introverted extrovert — I love my space, but I can also talk like we’ve known each other for years <3 My DMs? Always open. I’m a soft-hearted person, but once you’re in my close circle, you’re in for life :))
