Weekly Photo Challenge: Juxtaposition
This week’s photo challenge is portraying juxtaposition. I took this photo during the winter of 2012. The red really hits your eye, doesn’t it? 🙂

Don’t let this photo fool you. The Kolkata International Book Fair is the largest in the world, in terms of footfall. This was my first time visiting and I was astounded by the sheer numbers — publishers from all over the world, members of the public in attendance, and the variety of books being sold. (I took this photo about five minutes before closing time on the day, which is why there’s no one in sight.) The books were also obscenely cheap so I have just about doubled my collection. But there’s something quite satisfying about coming home with a haul that is the result of hours of walking around, fighting through hoards of people to browse the shelves and finding the right book amidst it all.

“Agatha, this is Magnus” This book has been a favourite since childhood. It’s a reminder of where I’ve been this past year and the dream I’m working towards. Slowly, but steadily.

On that note, thank you to those who posted advice and support on my resolutions post! I appreciated every single one. Thank you for taking the time.

The scent of book pages and coffee enveloped me as I stepped in and for a moment I was 15 again — on a carefree afternoon, a list of books on my phone and little else to worry about except whether they’d be in stock.

There’s so much I want to do this year. Write more, read more, draw more. Learn more. Be more. But the funny thing is, I haven’t done anything at all for any of those goals. And now that new year’s day is over, I kind of feel like I missed my shot — start as you mean to go on, and I’ve started by napping, eating far too much and avoiding work. I really want this year to be better, but it’s just the same old me.

Happy new year, friends! 🎉 I hope 2019 is a happy, healthy and successful one for you all. What are some of your hopes for the year? I’m resolving to be nicer to myself — it’s a long shot but let’s see how it goes.
