 EVERYBODY'S CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT ARC A show is considered memorable by its viewers if it captures the realism of the characters by showing their emotional and mental growths as they overcome obstacles in their lives. Though it seems rather fictional to see it on the screen, once you experience it you'll realize that it is not as beautiful as it usually shows on the screen. Having watched enough anime and read more than enough books of various genres , I used to feel constantly annoyed as to why the author chose to kill off important people in the protagonists life. Nearly every anime show has a protagonist whose parents are almost non existent , dead or overly abusive to the point where the show feels like you are carrying extra emotional baggage for a fictional character. But honestly speaking, this particular arc is the hardest to achieve. Around winter 2021, I experienced a loss (which I'll probably talk about one day) that created a barrier between the person that I w...

  THE CHRONICLES OF A TEENAGER PART 1:   REPULSED A note to all the readers :  this might become a little series because writing funny and descriptive stories is fun.  For what it’s worth, I detest talking about medicinal procedures or any medical topic especially if I am on the dinner table. It has got nothing to do with my hormonally imbalanced body and mind since I’ve always been awkward and I have had a psychological terror of blood and hospitals since I can remember. I mean I literally start bawling and arguing if I have to visit the doctor even for a simple fever and cough. The irony is that I’ve had the most hospital visits compared to my sisters, but this still doesn’t waver the fear in me. During the entire Quarantine, I’ve heard so much about medical related procedures and what- not that I might as well start talking about the different types of ventilators; the invasive and the non-invasive. One of my Paternal uncles had gone through Covid around ...
