Growing Up
Voyager Magazine
Dedicated to my little sister, without whom I would have never grown up.
-
Mockingbird
Voyager Magazine
All they had to do to was convince me that I was not good enough because I cared so deeply about being just that. That there was no way I'd rise from the devastation of my childhood. That there was no way that a flower could bloom out of concrete. No way.

All Editors are Writers Who Don’t Know How to Not Be Editors
Voyager Magazine
I used to grieve that as a young adult. Sometimes, I still do. But I no longer reject it. I no longer try to make up for it. I no longer consider it a disadvantage.
I am not normal. I am deep, I am maddening, I am passionate, I function in the extremities of my character, I fight against my darkness everyday and I win most of the times. I am everything that I was never expected to be. I am myself. -
Everything is Shit
Voyager Magazine
I didn’t know what happened. I could feel something wet on my face, but I couldn’t open my eyes. It hurt. Everything hurt. I felt the cold cement under my hand as I slowly collapsed to the ground.

First of Everything is Always Shit
Voyager Magazine
In the summer of ’09, I entered my sophomore year and was incredibly focused on academics. On the other hand, that same year, Marcus was supposed to go away to college. He didn’t. He failed the year.
That’s when it all went to shit. -
Not Marcus
Voyager Magazine
I don’t know why men these days have conversational skills of a toddler. I miss when I used to be able to talk to someone naturally. I miss him sometimes. I don’t mean Marcus. I mean the one I will never talk about. Not in this lifetime, at least.

Marcus
Voyager Magazine
Marcus was the first boy I loved.
Marcus was also the first boy who hit me the same way my father hit my mother. -
Thinking of You: Dearest Reader
Voyager Magazine
When everything else fails and I find it all to be exhausting, there is only the feeling of gratitude that is left for my pen and paper and the incomparable relief of knowing that you, my dearest reader, may never really know if I told you everything on my mind tonight or only that I wished you to know to make sense of this story.

Dr Frankel’s ‘Nice Girl Syndrome’ is Real
Voyager Magazine
Reading this book made me realise that the ideals we peddle as strong young women are often just that, ideals. They are not values.

A Loser’s Way of Life: Bullies in Your Twenties
Voyager Magazine
Real world demands balance. You can do it right but you must find places to be comfortably wrong. Like the women who speak right only till it doesn’t offend a man.

A Loser’s Way of Life: Grown Ups
Voyager Magazine
But, this is not for you to feel sorry for me. Higher education and lack of imagination constitute many losers but not many disadvantaged.

My Twenties
Voyager Magazine
I was brought up to believe that people are—regardless of their obvious and not-so-obvious differences—good. If you do good, are good, believe in good, life will bring more of the same.

Moon Tail Goes for a Walk

Moon Tail was tiny and easy to miss. Sometimes, when he fell asleep in a pile of clothes at the bottom rack of the cupboard, nobody would be able to find him but Little Lily.

Little Lily and Moon Tail
Voyager Magazine
Little Lily and Moon Tail were inseparable since the moment they met. Little Lily liked that Moon Tail’s fur felt like a blanket. Moon Tail liked that he could find Little Lily anywhere if he followed the pitter-patter of her tiny feet.

The Porcupine's Journey
Voyager Magazine
After bidding farewell to The Giant Tree, The Porcupine walked and walked and walked. It seemed like no end would ever come to the green expanse. “Oh! How I wish I could see the sea, the big, blue, beautiful sea!” The Porcupine thought while walking. “Oh! How I wish I could see the sunrise from the top of a giant mountain! It would be so beautiful!” The Porcupine thought again. The sky was still beautiful and the grass was still green but The Porcupine wished to see more.

The Porcupine and The Giant Tree
Voyager Magazine
The Porcupine bid farewell to The Flower and continued to walk ahead. He found a giant tree. Its bark and branches were covered in green. From far, it looked like any ordinary, overgrown tree. Its flowers bloomed fully and danced as the wind blew past. Tired, The Porcupine decided to sit under the tree for a while.

The Porcupine and The Flower

Chips Fuel F1 Cars’ Record Performances
Analytics India Magazine
Today, semiconductor chips power everything from switching circuits to allowing electronic devices to function and respond to user commands with precision. As such technologies continue to evolve, so do their use-cases across industries. However, perhaps the least known among the use-cases of semiconductor chips is the case of F1 cars. From its design to on-track performance, a grand prix car needs time-intensive research and development to stay competitive year on year. Amidst several…

From its design to on-track performance, a grand prix car needs time-intensive research and development to stay competitive year on year. Amidst several components that contribute to the success of this car, semiconductor chips play a critical role in sensors, telemetry units and electronic control units (ECUs).

Formula 1, the Unrivalled Global Advertisement for Big Data Analytics
Analytics India Magazine
The recent surge in global interest in Formula 1 or F1 can largely be attributed to the success of the Netflix documentary ‘Drive to Survive’—a multi-season, behind-the-scenes of the world’s biggest racing championship. Considering the platform’s reach, it would be tough to argue otherwise. However, this renewed fascination for the sport is also telling of a larger, global interest in technology and its impact on everyday life since we are yet to witness another sport embrace new technology as…

Considering the platform’s reach, it would be tough to argue otherwise. However, this renewed fascination for the sport is also telling of a larger, global interest in technology and its impact on everyday life since we are yet to witness another sport embrace new technology as wholly as F1 in its evolution.
