Hi !
This is the 1st episode of Timesheets, the series where I document journeys into adulthood and make entries about navigating through this odd experience.
I thought of launching the series with an episode dedicated to commencements and new beginnings. I'm on a different path in my life and I thought it would be helpful to revisit some of these speeches. This episode consists of my favourite speeches, some thoughts and advice which I'll probably keep forgetting but I must keep in mind.
Do give it a listen !

One of the most important experiences in college was living in my hostel room - MCS 416. It was enchanting and magical in many ways. I learnt so much about myself over the years and as I start a new chapter in my life, I find myself noticing the absence of those moments. I'm yearning for the room again and everything that it gave me.
This episode is special. It is personal and about the courage, strength and the hope my room continues to give me even though I don't live there any more.
Give it a listen ! You can read the essay as well.
Let me know what you thought and do share your own stories of living in a hostel. I would love to hear them.

Hi,
There's been a common theme around some of my episodes from the past - they normally involve an observation about my memories. Lately, I've noticed that my expectations around memories have become twisted. This episode is an exploration about what it means to become a chronicler inside your own memories.
I hope you give it a listen.
Let me know what you think, if you have been having similar thoughts or have had some other weird experience in the past year.

Hi,
At the core of Yuvardha is the spirt of sport. No other home team in NLUJ embodies this spirit more than the Men's NLUJ Volleyball team. I lived across some of the players and I know just how deeply passionate and dedicated they were towards this sport. The team has the most successful sporting record in NLUJ's history - a total of 15 different tournament victories. They are the gold standard of what it means to be a great sports team in law school.
I've learnt so much from them. They form a part of college's collective memories and this episode is about their journey.
Chapter 1 |The 2015 Semi-Finals - (01:15) Chapter 2 |The 2017 Finals - (12:58) Chapter 3 | Haikyu in NLUJ - (23:20)Note: This episode is 2nd in the series of episodes around Yuvardha.

Hello ! This episode is going to be part of a series of episodes around Yuvardha. The official way of describing Yuvardha is that it is a biannual sports fest organised by NLU Jodhpur for law schools in India. But it is so much more than that. It has a lot of history, people have many memories attached to this particular event and it was an integral part of my college life.
The first edition of Yuvardha was held in 2009. In this episode, you'll get to hear about the odd and unusual way of how this event got started. There is a lot to say about Yuvardha and it might never be enough. For the coming episodes, I'll need your help. Please reach out to me if you have a memory, story or any peculiar event to share about your Yuvardha experience. Please give this a listen, and let me know what you think !
Note:
The professor who gave Yuvardha its name is - Raj Purohit. There might be some minor inaccuracies in this story, I sincerely apologise for it.Follow Curiousect:

Over the years, I've come to associate a lot of memories with examinations. The period of 2 weeks entailed a lot of moments, where despite all the chaos, stress and worry around me, I would inevitably find joy by spending time with my friends.
As I finish giving my last set of exams as a student, I made this episode which contains different memories, rituals and all the things we miss about giving exams together.
I requested people to send in messages and voice notes sharing their favourite moments and memories around giving exams. What you'll listen to are those voices. I'm incredibly grateful to people who responded and were willing to share these memories with me, thank you very much !
Voices in Order: Madhav Kapoor, Rajat Sharma, Divyanshu Dembi, Shouri Bhat, Shagun Taparia, Kritika Dobhal, Rohan Govind, Sayantan Bhattacharya, Rohan Sachdev, Adya Garg, Roshika Babu, Rushil Mehta, Isha Sen, Gautami Govindrajan, Anjali Sasikumar, Rashmi John, Krishnan Sreekumar, Radhika Parthasarthy, Ananya Bajpai and Khushi Agarwal
A lot of people responded through text messages as well and I've uploaded those on the Curiousect page. Do check them out.
Let me know what your favourite memories are !

Hi, I keep thinking about my college, NLUJ.
I can't help it. It is inevitable.
I looked through my limited number of photos and some past WhatsApp chats to try and relive some of those memories. In process, I realised something important. This episode is about that realisation and how crucial food was to my experience in college. After you're done listening, I'll leave you with a thought - what kind of food rituals do you share with your friends?
I would urge all of you to read the complete essay (this episode doesn't include some minor parts) on my website or substack.
