The Diwali-Exam transition

As Diwali ends and semester exams begins, the festive crackers are swapped for stacks of textbooks. Us who once chatted about sweets are now frantically trading notes, shouting, “Did you study this?” Amidst the chaos, someone's messed up relationship problems in literature seem harder than finding the last piece of ladoo. The so called black tea nights replace Diwali celebrations, and the only fireworks come from the stress of group study sessions. Welcome to the post-Diwali reality, where survival becomes the ultimate goal!

Black and Blank

Today, I got this book called "DISCIPLINE IS DESTINY by Ryan Holiday" from someone special. And my inquisitive mind focused on the dark black and blank page on the front which really caught my eyes.  My mind asked "why is it black and blank  ?".  "How do I know?", i asked. But my memory kicked in and reminded me that I also have this other book "MANTOVIN PADAIPUGAL" which also has this same black and blank page, and was also gifted by someone special ( yes, I do have a lot of special people in my life.

One of my friends (Chandler) suggested me this movie called DEAD POETS SOCIETY which totally flipped my way of seeing poetry.

Shadow speaks!

 Today I happened to attend an event where a SHADOW PUPPET team performed a story which I loved a lot and would like to share with you guys Let me just tell you the plot, shall I? The story begins with an amazing cloud who travels everywhere on search of people's stories. One day, he asks his bird friend ," Do you know someone with a story?" He answered that, he knows a whale from the ocean nearby. So he goes to the ocean and searches for this whale. After a while, he found him and asks him about his story. And the whale began, "I am someone who loves to swim around but sadly have this Nemo memory. So I usually tend to get lost while swimming and forget my help sign" ( the noise whales make during danger). And he goes on with how the aquatic beings react roughly to something which loved and a specification of a turtle which tells that "the kids these days are spoiled". Then the whale suggests to meet an elephant in the forest. When the cloud enquires o...
