Who is this person?
In our life we come across many people with different personalities but it is quite rare to find people who are open and have a broad outlook and are not judgemental. My aunt, I would say, is one such person as she always expresses her opinions openly and is never judgemental.
Why do you think this person is very open?
My aunt, who is a math genius, works in a renowned college. She had completed her bachelor’s degree here in India but then shifted to the USA to complete her master’s degree. Due to her innovative ways of teaching mathematics, she is well loved by her students. Many of the students often visit her home, and I have observed that other than studies, they also discuss their personal problems with her. She is more of a friend to them than a teacher.
And explain how you feel about this person?
My aunt has also travelled extensively, and I believe that is possibly why she has such a broad outlook. She can interact with people of all ages without any kind of inhibitions. I always go to her if I’m in any kind of sticky situation, for I know she would never judge me. Also if I’m wrong, she makes no bones about it and clearly tells me so.

Who this person is and how do you know this person?
My friend circle is quite close-knit and it’s just four of us. The reason we all get along so well is that we’re quite outgoing and can interact with almost anyone, anywhere, but at the end of the day, we all understand boundaries. But we used to have one friend in our circle who used to forget those boundaries, especially in front of strangers purely because she was extremely extroverted and open about her life. Her name is Kavya and we knew each other from college.
Why do you think this person is very open?
Kavya and I used to be quite close because of our common interests. However, at times, I used to feel that she reveals a bit too much to strangers about herself and about me as well. All one had to do was have a fun and respectful conversation with her, and she’d be ready to answer all questions with complete honesty and in detail. Be it embarrassing or sensitive information, she’d not hesitate at all.
And explain how you feel about this person?
I have no ill feelings in my heart for her till date, but that part of her nature did start bothering me a lot. It made me quite hesitant around her because I would always fear that she might blurt out something about me that I wouldn’t want anyone to know. I still respect everything else about her, but I wish she could see how damaging this habit can be for people around her – emotionally and mentally.

What the clothing was, who gave it to you, and when you got it?
Just 3 days ago, my mother gave me an Indian two-piece apparel as a birthday present. She wanted me to get the alterations done to it in time so I could wear it on my birthday, but the garment is definitely not meant to be worn on a birthday. It’s a traditional Indian co-ord set that has a top and a trouser, called salwar-kameez regionally. The design detail is quite intricate and the work on it is shiny. Considering that, it is more suitable for greater occasions of grandeur, like the Indian festival called Diwali. So I have decided to get it altered once Diwali is around the corner. I’ll don it at other Indian festivities as well.
And explain why this person gave you the clothes
My mum knows I hate it when people give me clothing because I am pretty uptight with my choices. However, she has been asking me to buy something traditional since I keep repeating the same wardrobe at every event. Hence, she decided to gift me the apparel because she knew I’d not shop for myself. Ultimately, I am glad she bought that for me because it’s quite pretty and the color would look quite good on me. So, I am excited to wear it to celebrations, especially because now I’ll get to wear something new.

Describe a time you used your Cellphone/Smartphone to do something important

What happened and when it happened?
Nowadays almost everyone is glued to their smartphones, making it seem like an extension of our bodies. I used to detest this about everyone around me and even considered becoming old-school and switching back to a smaller cell phone with just the calling feature. However, in March 2024, I got a reality check and realized how important a smartphone can be. I was out with my friends when a client from work called me up for an extremely urgent work. Even after multiple attempts to explain to them how I couldn’t possibly do it as I was out of my house, they were insistent due to the emergency they were facing.
How important the cellphone/smartphone was
It was my smartphone that ultimately saved their day and mine surely. I quickly downloaded an application on my phone after searching for the best video editor. I edited a video for my client and then quickly sent it across. That day my smartphone helped me gain some internal appreciation as well from my work team.
And explain how you felt about the experience
This all led me to realize that if I had shifted to a cell phone, my boss would have thought that I wasn’t capable of handling emergencies and my client would have also lost out on presenting well for their company executives. Since then, I’ve become a bit more grateful for this technology.
