Sewing knit fabric. Yoouccwhhhhh !!
Noticing how whenever I meet someone new, there’s new repeat questions. Like I feel like, when I was growing up, all I had to say was ‘I was born in India and moved here when I was nine.’
But now, I’m asked ‘Oh so you grew up in the city?’ and I have to be like, no, I meant the states like America, we actually moved to New Jersey.
‘So when did you move to New York?’

Moon was looking fabulous last night, and fabulous right now as it’s rising above the house across my street. :~)
- Had amazing Bhutanese food with Genevieve and Kelly C. Zhego in Woodside!
- Playing lots of tennis and having the most humbling losing streak. 0-4 matches up until yesterday where I crushed in Central Park. I think the clay surface is a bit more forgiving for my lack of agility on the court.
- Crafting with Fiona and Annie yesterday and eating food in Sunset Park and being convinced to read War and Peace
- I caught my first fish today! A little striped bass. I couldn’t dislodge the circle hook from its mouth though, so Dan had to help me.
- The weather is sooooo beautiful.
- I hope I can drive up to see the Orionids next weekend :)
I really liked this book. The writing was slow but easy to read. The subject matter felt magnetic, like I kept wanting to keep reading.
The book is about a woman named Miri and her wife, Leah, who went on a submarine trip to the deepest part of the ocean and came back wrong. It follows both womens’ POVs, with Miri’s serving as a way to talk about their relationship, while Leah’s was about the experience of being down there in the ocean and the psychological state of her crew members.
