PUNCTUALITY

Hello,
It is such a hectic time for me right now, with all the records and assignments! But, I've been watching Robin Sharma and reading his blog, and of course Lilly aka Superwoman, getting some inspiration... So here I am!
I've made a decision to myself that I will try to blog whenever I can.

This post is gonna be about punctuality. Being on Time.
Time and Tide waits for none.
As the proverb says, it really doesn't. And I learned this the hard way.
You see, I was always late for my classes last year. The first hour.. Even though I had a bike! always, always five minutes, six or ten minutes late.
This went to such an extent that at one point, my teacher told me not to enter the class. Even though I was just five minutes late for an early morning class (just five minutes I thought) , she strictly told me not to enter and I missed a whole hour.
And it was the semester end. Added to this, another incident happened.
I was early once and since the teacher had not arrived yet, I was sitting outside. One of my classmates saw me and she came running, asking "Did I miss the class?". Later when she came to know the truth, she said "I thought since you were sitting outside, the class must have started! Seeing as you always come late".
I was dumbfounded! All my classmates had marked me as some kind of indication that if I'm outside, the class has started because as I'm always late, the teacher would've sent me out, I mean, Wth?!!!
And one of my friends even sarcastically remarked to my telling that I was trying to be on time.

It just slapped me hard in the face. I was ashamed that even though I was the same age as them, I couldn't be punctual and it just ...broke my self-confidence even more.

So, I decided that I would definitely try my level best and be on time this year and not for their sake, for myself. For my personal goals.

So here I am! It's been two months since the new semester and I'm doing good.
I'm happy that I've been able to keep it up and my confidence is coming back!
I should maintain this.

Lots of Love. Stay healthy. Stay happy.

The most important lesson that needs to be taught in schools

Photo by Andy Montes de Oca on Unsplash As someone who enjoys anime and manga, I had never watched Naruto, until recently. I remember watching the show's ads when I was a kid and I'd heard about the show, but I never watched it partly because it's long and they have prolonged it by including many repeated scenes. Due to the lockdown, I had the time I needed and so, I watched the show. In simple terms, Naruto revolves around the story of a boy (named Naruto) in a small village who is shunned by everyone because he harbors a beast inside him. The story starts off small and gets interesting later where the plot expands (obviously). It's a story where villains have more fans than heroes and every character has something to teach you. What I love most about Naruto — the series and the boy himself— is his unwavering belief in himself. While the author tries to paint him as a stupid kid who is stubborn, I feel that Naruto has one of the most important traits that so many kids...

Life Update 2.

Well well well, Hellooo from Boston!! How are you?? How's life? Everything going well? (stupid question to ask when it's the middle of the week; it's still Thursday...No it's Friday back home. I'm blabbering) For those who have no clue whatsoever, I am in Boston! to pursue my second masters' degree in science journalism. It's been three weeks (almost) since I've been here and it has been very challenging. (Yup, challenging is a good word to describe it.) So you guessed right. I will be talking about the past weeks and the transition. I was and am (still) excited about being here. I think that's something that won't go away, at least for now. I'm trying not to be excited because I have this stupid belief that if I keep up this excitement, something sad will happen. I think I'm confusing excitement with expectations. Back to the point, I was excited about coming here and I was ready for everything. I knew full well it would be d...

A STANDSTILL

Hello, It's been a while. This whole post is going to sound like a puzzle or maybe just stupid. But it is what it is. The past few weeks have been a revelation. Haha. Revelation ( noun ) - a surprising and previously unknown fact, especially one that is made known in a dramatic way. Ironic that I chose that word. I have been tested like never before. I pushed my boundaries and made leaps, some foolish ones. Okay, most of them were foolish. Every aspect of myself has been challenged and it has left me feeling empty. I thought I hated drama, but I have learned that I am very dramatic. I feel like I don't even know who I am. So, I am going to explore. I am going to question every thought and filter everything that comes into my life. I will go back to certain memories (which are not going to be that reliable) and look at them differently and I will revisit what I put into my head when I was a child. And therefore, I have even questioned why I started this blog in th...
