ನನ್ನ ಕಲ್ಲಿನ ಕಟ್ಟಡ

Disclaimer: This will be a long post, but please bear with it... please please...

Helloooo,

I had my graduation day yesterday... So, I am almost finishing my three years of a graduate course..
So, I have so much to say about my college... I couldn't say it when I gave the feedback yesterday... But, I will say it here... And here it is...

ನನ್ನ ಕಲ್ಲಿನ building... ನನ್ನ MES...
I will never forget my first impression of this college... It was definitely not a good impression. And somewhere along, I had a feeling I would end up here.... Because my teacher always said, not to hate anything or anybody because, who knows at what stage of your life, you will need that person's help. And as it happened, I really got into MES. I wrote my CET in MES and my orientation program was also in the same room where I wrote my CET...(lol)

That's how my journey started here....I was a little excited, a little sad and a little happy...

And.....now, here I am, three years later (three years which went by in the flick of an eye) and when I look back, like a bullet train hitting me, I realise how much I've learnt and experienced which has changed me.

hehehehe....I was such a dingus back then... Oops, sorry! I'm in my thoughts... Earth to Chinnu.... COME back here....



Yes, so I fell in love with all my teachers in my college. They are all excellent and are the pride of MES. MES exists because of them...
And of course, My Zoology HOD, Mrs. Sheela Menon ma'am. As I've mentioned before (in an older post) a page, a book and a post, is not enough to tell about this wonderful person. She is my guardian angel, my goddess, my inspiration.
The way she has maintained her whole department is worth a standing ovation from the whole world. She is just wow.
And all the teachers too...They are all wonderful.
And then my Chemistry Department...and Botany Department..
My language teachers, Commerce Department and Arts Department.. All the teachers are so welcoming and supportive... Commerce dept. Dude! the teachers are so jovial with their students, I was stunned... They know how to control the students! (I say this because of a personal experience with the students) *Thumbs Up*
THANK YOU teachers for being my inspiration and giving me so many advices.....

And I learnt so much! I had my eyes opened and my brains were knocked out!
As my friend Sonu said, yes, I was really tested by my college.
I used to be unpunctual... Oh My God! I've mentioned this in my old post, but I learnt the value of being on time. And the value of time. (Thank you Gayathri ma'am for teaching me that)
And then I learnt how to deal with people. Because there were so many DIFFERENT people! Everyone was unique and had their own past and aspirations and personalities. I learnt how to be patient and how to deal with failure and how to inculcate them into my life. I learnt that being organised is more easy than being disorganised and doing things on a whim.

But, the MOST important of all, is that I learnt how to love myself. I learnt how to be confident. I learnt that there is nothing wrong in being myself and that I had been brain washed into thinking that I should do what the society tells me to do or that I should "follow the herd".
I learnt that there is nothing wrong with sticking my tongue out or making weird faces, because you know WHAT? There are people who are willing to ACCEPT me for what I am. And they don't shun me away or ask me to change myself for them.
I learnt to see the positive side of things, and I learnt that I had been around people who were pulling me down rather than lifting me up.
I learnt that unless I don't love myself first, I can't love my friends...

And I am so grateful for all my friends. They accepted me for what I am, they got along with my madness and laughed and encouraged me.... And here I am....feeling so happy and grateful... If it weren't for you guys, I think I would not be holding my head high now...
And I don't think I would have the confidence to step into the future....
So THANK YOU...

And here I am, still on the journey of life, learning more about myself and the world...Every day...
And I am so humbly grateful....

Lots of love,

Stay Healthy, stay Happy.

PG.

My Dear INFINITE

Hello. It has been long. I am still writing about my trip so that I can post my experiences. I will definitely post them so please wait for it a bit more. But, this is necessary. For me. For some of my closest friends. This post is dedicated to 'INFINITE' and my 'INSPIRIT' friends. I started this morning with a negative thought. I started it by procrastinating. I was supposed to enter a competition and I had not even prepared. Haha I am rambling nonsense. But then, I saw a news statement which shocked me. And I didn't realize the magnitude of it until now. By now, most of you who know me definitely know that I love a k-pop band called 'Infinite' with all my heart. I've even mentioned them so many times in my posts. I came across this band when I was randomly seeing K-pop music videos. I really liked their music and I looked them up. And gradually I came to love them. I found out that they are genuine, they are happy, cheerful people who have...

I LOST MY PHONE

Disclaimer - I am writing about Android phones. I have no idea about iPhone, except that it also has 'Find my iPhone' app in it. So what do you do when you lose your phone? If this is your first time losing it, then you better hurry. AND it will really help if you've turned on the location and internet in your phone. Trust me. It will be worth it. If you have not, then please say goodbye to your phone. I'm sorry for your loss. By sheer luck (I don't know what else to call it) if you have turned on the location and the internet, then  - 1. Borrow your friend's phone and install the app 'Find My Device' from Play Store. 2. Sign in as a guest by entering your email address. The app will locate your phone. 3. If you have just misplaced it or dropped it nearby, you can hurry and reach your device. But, if someone has stolen it (yes, there are people who still steal mobile phones. It is 2018 and apparently this has nothing to do with people...

PACKING LIST FOR MOVING TO ANOTHER COUNTRY

Hello! Now that everything is finalized, I can say without hesitation that I'll be moving to Boston this month, to pursue my Masters' in Science Journalism! Background: *screams* woohooooo Therefore, I started writing a list of the things I would have to take. I researched and found no proper packing list which was suitable for students (especially) who are moving to another country. And then it flashed - what if I make a packing list and put it in my blog? *pats self* So, here it is! I wracked my brain and wrote this list which includes stuff for both men and women (mostly women, I must say). Feel free to download it or take a printout and check off the things you have taken. Hope it helps! A couple of things before I sign off - 1) I am a stationery freak, so I included that section. Please ignore it if you don't intend to take any. But I must say that it is better to take the basic stuff, because stationery will obviously be expensive where you're...
