Childhood was magical. I don't ever wanna go back.
I had an incredibly happy childhood. I grew up in a government colony with many buildings, many friends, many pranks, many festivals, a school we'd walk to. It was spent trying - WWE moves, hilarious email ids, new ways to burst crackers, innovative ways to stay hidden playing chor-police. Looking back, the only thing I worry about now is, was it too happy? Will it interfere with my success story? Where is the trauma? Where is the conflict? Where is the drama? Dammit.
Do Nothing. It's Hard.
As a kid, I did nothing. It's incredibly hard. Try it. I did not read. I did not write. I did not practice anything. I did not participate in any competitions. I scored what I had to. I studied as much as I needed to.
For a tiny kid, I fought a lot. So, I thought I'll become a WWE superstar of a rare South Asian descent.
I played a lot of sport. So, for a brief while, I thought I'll become a sportsman. Lol.
I had told my mom to find me something that did not require studying. I was good at drawing and painting. So, my mom found me JJ School of Art. She thought I could become an artist. And I did. I got into Sir J. J. Institute of Applied Art. But, I graduated as a writer.
My dad figured he needed to work through his 60s.
