2026 has started on a nostalgic note, thanks to the latest social media trend. Everyone is looking back at their 2016 pictures; there seems to be a collective sense of loss of simpler times.
As I begin to think about 2016, I see myself as someone who, for the most part, is still sleepwalking through life. My flatmates and I often go to shopping malls. We roam around, and as the day ends, I come up with an excuse not to eat out. Was broke AF. My siblings visit me frequently, and for a few days, my life revolves around them. This is a picture we took after getting discounted haircuts at a local salon. My haircut isn't that visible here, but I guess this is the only picture I have from that day.
2016 was when Goa happened. Leaving that heaven of a place-after weeks of waking up to the sound of waves, running on sand, eating noodles almost every day, and watching the sun go down every evening-I felt homesick for the first time in my life. Here is a picture of me sitting at a sweet little spot, without a care in the world.
When I look at this picture, I realise this kid (I didn't know her) must be a young adult now.
And while we are at it, how can I not share a picture of me in ripped jeans to commemorate the fashion of 2016?
