About



I realised that it’s been a year since I launched this blog but never really made my ‘About page.’ So, here it is.

My name is Mahikaa. I’m a teenager living in India. I like to read all genres of fictional material available. And, as it might be evident, I write for pleasure. And to get things off my chest. Seriously, any time of the year you can expect me to be working on a novel project.

As for the blog, I created it to be able to communicate and discuss the abstract and random thoughts I tend to have. To follow me and my train of thought as I navigate through the topic.

And there’s a reason for my blog to be called ‘My Inescapable Thought Abyss.’

There’s a reason behind every word of it. It’s inescapable. You cannot simply escape your thoughts. They’re always there, whether their presence is appreciated or not. It’s an abyss because it’s seemingly bottomless. That gives me a little idea of what infinity might be, literally.

    Oh, look, it's you again. You perhaps submitted twice for assignment one. Anyhow, cool ideas. I love not only that thoughts are potentially abysmal, but also our langauge has to be dynamic enough to encapsulate those ideas. Also, I have started meditating lately and have realized that thoughts and emotions do not have to define me and can be fleeting, but where do thoughts go and if they do go somewhere, where do they even come from. Just try to observe your thoughts coming and going like the sound of thunder in the distance!

On The Concept Of Random Capitalization (and standing out)

                                                                                      It’s unique. From what I know, it was introduced in John Green’s book, Paper towns in which the main protagonist, Margo Roth Spigelman believes in the concept of random capitalization. According to that, iT Is oKAy foR a sentTEnce tO Go LiKE this. Pretty cool right? It makes her stand out in the book because of her uncommon beliefs but how she justifies it seems just right. She thinks that the rules of capitalization are too unfair to the words in middle. Which is justified. Also, kind of extraordinary. Although, I must say, Microsoft Word wasn’t happy with my random capitalization, its red lines under the text. I believe that it is unique and actually good because w...

On The Annual Whirr Of Excitement

The annual whirr of excitement, as I just quoted it. In simple words, the excitement/fear/anxious feelings among all of us on entering our first board year, grade 10. There’s this whirr of excitement. It’s there every year, it’s there this time too. Although, I must say people are kind of reluctant and nobody was actually excited because as each year passed, the difficulty level, knowingly or unknowingly, shot up. But we were also keen on freeing ourselves from grade 9 so, I guess ultimately, it was inevitable. *Shrugs her shoulders* Every year we’re excited about new books, friends, hopefully more likeable and lenient teachers than last time, which makes up for most part of our worries before we begin our one year journey and we also hope that this one turns out to be better than the last one. Is this whirr going to last? Well, its annual actually, it comes, stays for some time and leaves. It lasts mostly for two to three weeks until the newness of everything sinks amongst...

Thoughts On An Airplane

Its night time and I’m on an airplane and when I look down, all I can see are specks of illumination, a sign of life. If I were to exaggerate and speak, there is no square metre of land that is accessible to us and not owned by us.  By us, I mean humans. Individually we may or may not own a lot of land. But if you see it amongst us humans, we have huge portions of it. Like, huge. So large they can house millions, hold cities, metropolises. From above, the land looked so vast. And the vastness did not fail to fascinate me. It was as if an enchanting spell. So much that I'm yet to comprehend. I have to admit you get a better view from a height. Okay following this statement, it might go a little on the crazy side. By crazy I mean my hopelessly imaginative side. Flying over cities, like I said, I see specks of light. They look like stars in the night sky. Sure they don't twinkle. But there's spots of light in the dark. Just like we see in the sky. Apologies, bu...
