On Sincerity

Hey rockstars! I’ve been wanting to blog for a while but I have been so #burntout at work that I couldn’t bring myself to, even though the sticky note of blog ideas is increasing rapidly. But today I felt compelled to write because I’ve been thinking a lot lately about sincerity.  Not in a grand…

I am meant to…

Hey rockstars,  It’s been a whirlwind of a week, with lots of highs-highs (one of my close friends got married this weekend to the love of her life!!) and lots of low-lows (I’m livid at the state of the world and annoyed that journalistic integrity is taking such a horrible hit). On Friday night I…

The Law of Conservation of Hope

Hey rockstars,  I hope you’ve all been well. A few updates from me. Since it’s LinkedIn official, I guess I can make it official here too: I’ve started my MBA and I’m super excited about it. I’ll only be doing it part-time, and I started 2 weeks ago and love it so far. Second, some…

Forever a Child

Hey rockstars,  So I wrote this blog post last night, but then promptly fell asleep before I could upload it. So oops. Anyway, earlier this week Katie and I realized we are massively overdue for BFF time, so we decided to get sushi from this place we’ve always admired from afar. Everyone in this sushi…

“I remember” is Another Way to Say “I love you”

Hey rockstars,  Like so many posts before, this was inspired by an Instagram reflection (shocking, I know. But isn’t it nice that I’m so predictable?). A guy named Preston Rakovsky, who shares incredibly vulnerable and real posts about what love means, recently showed up on my “For You” page, and I’m so glad he did….

Do not ask me: “What do you do?”

“So, what do you do?”  They expect me to talk about my profession and my source of income. They expect me to name my job and career as if it explains my entire identity. And I, like a fool, give them exactly what they’re looking for: “Oh, I’m a lawyer!” But what I really want…

Alternate Universe Me is Popping Champagne

Hey rockstars! So it’s been a week since Rent Free Poem Week — it’s always such an emotionally exhausting time because I haven’t done that much reading comprehension since High School. The last week has been so rough. Work has been insane (nothing new there), but I’m also battling being sick 😦 Here’s the thing…

A “Classic Sandhya” Move

Hey rockstars,  I’ve been meaning to blog for a few weeks now, so here’s a chaotic little omnibus of all the half-formed ideas I’ve had.  If you’re reading this and you’re going: “Okay, there is absolutely no transition between these two thoughts,” then congratulations, that’s exactly what it’s like to talk to me in person. …
