ABOUT ME-
Hello there! I'm Prathima Arvikar and I hope this blogs helps you to get to know me better! To start off, I grew up in The United States of America in the Tennessee AKA: Music city. I'm an amateur writer and blogger. Yes, I am still in school, but that doesn't stop me from creating content that I love to make!
I love drawing house plans and scrolling through my phone in my leisure time and hope to become an architect in the future.
((Also I rock in interior-designing!)) :D

MIDDLE SCHOOL
With Indian Parents*wink*
Middle school. The three grades where life completely changes; 6th, 7th and 8th. One day you're completely fine in 5th grade- watching YouTube and playing outside ALL DAY. Then you go to middle school...all the things life keeps throwing at you, you've never seen! Drama, boys, and the homework-just ahhhhhhhh!!!! Friends you had in elementary school start drifting away from you. You seem to feel lonely at the start and then find fake people. You learn who toxic people really are. But your parents never seem to understand, do they?
I grew up with the typical type of Indian parents. I struggled not being able to share my experience with guys, or school crushes, or express how I felt when a guy said he liked me. I ended up sharing everything to my best friends! But there's a problem with that on my parent's side, too. My parents- my mother especially** were very nosy in my personal space. They would hear my conversations with my friends and read all my texts. That is one thing I wish I wouldn't have. Unfortunately, I got to stick with it for now lmao.
Nevertheless, my parents are incredibly supportive of my educational decisions- whether it's my career choice, or my college stereotypes. One thing I appreciate and will be forever grateful for of my parents is how they let me dress. Many girls are restricted to pants and a T-shirt, or worst-case scenario- kurti and duppatta at home. It's so unbelievable, yet so believable at the same exact time! Thankfully, my parents let me wear crop tops and ripped jeans, and lehengas with a very small restriction. As a fashion crazy stylist is literally half of my brain, grateful is an understatement!

UPDATE~HIGH SCHOOL
So, it's basically been quite a longgg time since I updated on my life on this platform, hasn't it? Well, to be honest, I completely forgot about it...and not to mention, I study in the "Cambridge" Board and 8th grade is one of the only years which are packed with exams, and tests, and all that brain damage. Anyways, I'm in 9th grade now, and here's my high school experience so far in brief.
A) I finally got my own phoneeeeeee
B) I've learnt who my true friends are
C) I've gotten to know myself better
​
The first point in brackets is pretty much self-explanatory. It may not seem thaat big of a deal to a few people out there, but trust me...using your mom's phone up until the end of 8th grade is no joke. It really hard to just have a casual conversation with your friend, knowing that the conversation can't get dirty, have any gossip, or you'll have to delete it later on :/
Well, lucky for me I didn't even have to convince my parents for a phone and they just gave it to me! I know...shocking. My uncle had sent his iphone X to my parents for me since he'd bought the new iphone 14. Lucky for me, my parents saw how much I really wanted a phone and my mom gave in and said I could have it:)) I have to thank my uncle for that though, haha..
