As a child I had a number of dreams. To be a doctor was the first one. Then a teacher and if I watched a motivating patriotic movie, I wanted to become a patriot. My ambition in life kept changing. It was on 14th August (Independence Day) every year when I became aspirant to join the police force seeing the patriotism all around the town. But this ambition of being an IPS was either on every Independence Day or when I watched a patriotic movie like Jai Gangajal, 2016. I always developed the urge to be a lawyer watching the serial Adalat on Sony TV. My professional preference kept changing depending upon my mood and emotional status at the time.
Being a confused person since my early ages, I couldn’t decide on my field of study as well. I kept hopping from one field to another. I studied all the possible subjects since my school to college days. In my 10th I studied Arts, then I switched to Commerce and then to Journalism and Mass Communication during my college days. And ended up landing as a Customer Sales Advisor in one of the renowned hotel industries in Dubai. I then decided to continue with my studies after a gap of 1.5 years and chose MBA in Human Resources keeping my hopping tradition intact.
Not being able to cope with the corporate world, I decided to resign from my job and move back to India. Also I had been homesick for all these two years. Or at least for the last 1.5 years. I completely changed as a person. My decision to go for Journalism and Mass Communications was on the grounds of my writing hobby. I, as a child have loved penning down real life incidences. And, one day, wanted to write something that the world could read and appreciate. I have always wanted to gain positive fame, especially in the field of writing. I now am trying to get back to my old self. I’ve started spending a lot of my time writing. But I do not see the same expressiveness now, that my words once had. I at times feel demotivated, but I do not stop trying. Writing is my passion and my hobby. I have always been a confused person. However, writing is something that I was never confused about. Hence, I am writing my soon to be published Novel, titled "It All Happened in Dubai". And one fine day 'My Trending Stories' Team contacted me on Instagram and asked me to be part of the team, which is why you are seeing me here.

Having no clue of what my future has in store for me, I live my life as it comes to me.
