Sneha Debnath. 19 years old. Math student at DU. Doing a course with IIT Madras. Interning with an Australian firm.

She came from Tripura to Delhi with dreams bigger than her age. Studying hard, earning her own money, never asking anyone for help. Her LinkedIn said she loved maths, computers, and anime. Just a normal, brilliant girl chasing a better life.
 
Yesterday, she was found dead in the Yamuna.
Her family called her an “overachiever.” But behind that word is a painful reality, of a generation that feels they must do everything, all at once, just to feel “enough.” Two courses. One job. One life. No time to breathe. And nobody really asks: Are you okay?
 
How many Snehas are quietly drowning in expectations right now?

This isn’t just tragic, it’s terrifying. If a girl this talented, this driven, couldn’t find space to be heard, what does that say about us?

How many Snehas are quietly drowning in expectations right now?

Kap’s Café was targeted in a shooting incident in which multiple gunshots were fired at the establishment.

After hearing the recent Kapil Sharma Cafe news, honestly, I’m rethinking the whole Canada dream. 
Whether it’s for a job, education, or launching a startup, maybe it’s time to pause and think twice.

Why not invest in India instead? This is our home, with immense opportunities and growth waiting for us.
“सारे जहाँ से अच्छा, हिंदुस्तान हमारा!”

Don't go to Canada...Not for Jobs, Studies, or Startups!

Mumbai got slammed with 100mm+ rain in just 12 hours. IMD's issued an orange alert, Metro Line 3 is down, roads are basically rivers, and the local trains are crawling. A lot of offices are half-empty or fully remote today some companies even let employees crash at work overnight.

And honestly, today was a mess for me too.
Left home at 8:30 AM thinking I could beat the rush. Got stuck at Sion for over an hour, water halfway up my legs. Auto guy ditched me mid-route, and I ended up walking 3 km just to reach an office that had 4 people and no Wi-Fi because of a power cut. 😩

Lesson learned: Never underestimate Mumbai rains, and always keep an extra pair of socks.

Anyone else go through this chaos today? Or did you wisely choose to WFH?

Day to Day Office

Laptop open, wifi perfect. Career... not so much. It wasn’t one big failure...just a thousand tiny ones. Rejections. Ghosted interviews. Skills that suddenly “weren’t enough.” 

Everyone around me seemed sorted. Promotions. Onsite roles. Hikes and me? Sitting with 6 tabs open, googling: “Jobs that don’t require confidence.” I almost gave up. Almost. Then I did something small but life changing. 

Day 3 tomorrow: The tiny decision that changed everything.

Interview Tips & Stories

I walked out of an interview today. This was my third interview with the company. Interviewer goes on to mention there's a fourth interview with the manager and I said nope. I stood up, and said "you've met me 3 times already and should know if you want to hire me at this point. I am not doing a 4th interview." She was shocked. I wish I took a picture of the look on her face. She kept saying, "but I really like you." And, "no one's ever done this before." Nope, don't care.
