My Hobbies & Interests

What I enjoy doing when I'm not studying or coding.

📷 Capturing Moments

Through the lens.

I got into photography when I got my first smartphone. I really enjoy street photography - capturing the everyday life of Dhaka. The colorful rickshaws, the busy streets, the golden hour light on old buildings in Puran Dhaka - there is always something interesting to photograph.

I mostly use my Canon EOS M50 but also shoot on my phone sometimes. Genres I like:

  • Street Photography
  • Landscape & Nature
  • Portraits
  • Architecture
Old Dhaka
Old Town
Nature
Nature Trip

🎮 My Competitive Side

More than just a pastime.

I've been gaming since I could hold a controller. Right now, I'm biased towards RPGs for the story and strategy games for the brain burn, but I'll hop on an FPS if my friends need a carry (or someone to blame). It's how I unwind and keep my reflexes sharp.

Current Rotation:

Valorant Minecraft Elden Ring CS2

📚 Brain Food

Stuff that makes me think.

I try to read whenever I'm not staring at a screen. I'm a huge sci-fi nerd (Dune changed my life), but I also read non-fiction to keep up with where tech is heading. It helps me escape the code for a bit.

Top Picks:

  1. Dune - Frank Herbert
  2. 1984 - George Orwell
  3. Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams
  4. Clean Code - Robert C. Martin
  5. Sapiens - Yuval Noah Harari

🏓 Touching Grass

Staying active.

Coding for 10 hours a day is great, but bad for the back. I play badminton when I can to stay valid, and try to hit the gym so I don't turn into a potato. I'm also a huge cricket fan - always rooting for Bangladesh!

If you go to BRACU and want to play badminton sometime, hit me up!
