Lockdown

Honestly, lockdown at beginning sounded pretty cool for an indoor person like me. In fact I enjoyed the first few months thoroughly. I was really happy that my exams were cancelled and nobody could nag me to go downstairs and play. But suddenly online schooling began and from the very start I hate online schooling. I think that attending school physically is better than attending online classes. Physical classes were much more entertaining and practical whereas on the other side online schooling was just as boring and eye-straining. I can’t just stare at the screen, the presentation ma’am is showing and listen to her and understand. I need much more physical teaching to understand. But seeing the conditions, I started to get used to online schooling and I don’t think I had a choice. Moving on, now, a year later, I don’t think of lockdown in such high regards. In fact, now I am too bored and frustrated of staying inside the house. Sometimes, I just want to go outside and play and walk to my heart’s content, without a mask, without any restraints. What makes it worse is that the conditions outside in the city, country, and world haven’t improved which means I don’t get to step out without my mask. Now as I am writing this, It’s raining outside, I just want to run out an get wet in the rain, enjoy it without thinking of cold, cough, Covid-19. Alas, I have to wait, wait for this to be over, for conditions to improve, for the world to recover.

MUN : First Experience

  Recently, I attended my first ever Model United Nations (MUN - DWMUN). In the beginning, I was frightened and didn't know if I would actually make it through the event without embarrassing myself or stuttering but thankfully nothing of that sort happened. The experience was enriching. It was really good. Also, the chairpersons and the moderator were extremely helpful and guided us very well. They also answered all of our questions patiently. So, as a first-timer, I would say they were really very considerate and accommodating.          The procedure was quite technical and seemed quite difficult to get but with 2 hours into the MUN and I had finally comprehended what we were supposed to do and what was expected of us. It was a two-day MUN. I had spoken in two moderated caucuses. They were basically the topics that you were expected to speak on. The press conference was absolutely terrifying. The resolution though was the tricky part. I didn't quite get th...

Hope

Hope Everyday there is a sunset, Every day the ball of light goes down, Every day the darkness engulfs the light, Every day when the moon rises, I see a little ray of hope, Not really strong but nevertheless a ray of hope, On a new moon day when I am unable to see my ray of hope, I feel lonely and sad, But upon seeing the faint twinkling of the stars, I think that there will always be hope whether you see it or not, There will always be hope in every little thing I see, Like how the darkness engulfs the big ball of light, But the darkness cannot stop the rays of the twinkling stars from piercing it, Even though there is always darkness trying to engulf us during the path of our life, There always will be the hope that helps us through it until dawn arrives                                                           ...
