These Days

Image
It's been the 19th day since I've been ingesting 10mg of fludac; fluoxetine to be precise and I experienced some repercussions only in the 7th day and last Saturday and Sunday, these repercussions were short lived, it didn’t continue for many days on straight thankfully, I got really scared when these did occur last Sunday as well, but apart from these I feel adequately well, battling depression I feel has given me the mental strength and the emotional agility that I'm proud of, though the process of acquiring these were neither desirable nor easy at all, I don’t think that anyone would like to be 10X sad for no reason, and endure that scenario for even a second, yes, it just doesn't make sense, but guess that's what the white coats call depression. It's been 7 months since it first held me but my medication is helping me focus on the important aspects than finding comfort for the extreme darkness that I used to go through during that period. I know that ...

Eleven Twelve

So lets get to the point. Today I'm gonna mention you the generality of being in class 12(science). Class 12 was something that I always aspired to be in, you know when I was in 6th grade the students of class 12 seemed like the divine ones, the smart ones, ones who would be writing complex notations on papers, they had things written down even in their hands too, I felt like class 12 was the place to be in !!! I was deadly scared of math at that time, I learnt division only when I came in 6th grade, math was not my friend at that period of time and I had decided that if I would get admission to class 11 then I would not take math in any way. Seems funny today but math is my second favorite subject after physics, the transition has been a great one but definitely a good one as well. 12th grade is awesome!!! It's a magical place, yes confusion is frequent here, so it's magical ! . Let me share with you the generality of being in class 12 in my school, you may have h...

Blind Pursue

Image
All of us have this tendency to follow great personalities and try to become like them, we even follow their words and quotes blindly, accepting them as gospel truth. However, should we believe in everything they have mentioned to be true ? Should we pursue the world as they have seen it ? Should we have only one way of looking at their statement when the quote is ambiguous ? Well that requires some art of the brain and I would like to throw some light in this intriguing aspect that we take it for granted today. The first thing that I would like to draw attention to is something that 21st century has forgotten about; the thing is that we all are different, you cannot be Einstein no matter how hard you may try, neither can I become someone else even if I imitated their entire lifestyle, but why is that so ?   So following every quote of Einstein will not make me achieve things that he has achieved. Each and every person in this domain has his own way of executing things that ...

The Final Months Of 2018

Bishal Chettri Hello Friends ! Yes, it has been a long time that I haven't posted anything but today somehow I received that urge(and time) to express my valuable emotions(emotions are precious aren't they?). My opinions may not be your necessity in any case, however they may arouse interest as we're all humans after all. So lets begin ! Has it ever happened to you that you lose your interest in things which you previously used to enjoy ? Well, this condition hit me so hard last year that I could not revive myself back to my default state for quite a long time, and by a long time I mean a seriously long time for a student who previously only used his time either for studies or refreshment(after studies). This period in my life used to occur periodically until last November, when this stage gained so much momentum that it was making me extremely lethargic and lazy.  I literally had no enthusiasm whatsoever to study, had lost my competitiveness and was moody most...

Summary of A beautiful Mind

Image
Bishal Chettri   Although the movie by the same name has taken all the attention of people but, you should know that about 90% of the movie scenes were based on the book itself. So, if you have about some minutes to spare then I have here the synopsis of the book "A beautiful mind" from my point of view, so that you will get the essence of the book in relatively shorter time. This book is about the life of an extraordinary genius, John Forbes Nash, well written by Sylvia Nasar, his life is so inspiring and touching, and his experiences and his intellect both are absolutely remarkable. So friends, I would not like to bore you with facts but there are some facts which are really important so I have included them anyway along with appreciating the philosophical aspects of  the book which you possibly would find appealing.  These are the things that "A Beautiful Mind" taught me, and I believe that these should help you too. I read that Nash was a b...

Understanding Class 11

Well friends, it has now been about 2.5 or 3 months approximately in class 11 Science and I  think that now I am capable of explaining the gap and the change in ideologies in Class 11 of various students (technically they are all my friends). So here it goes... In India a general amount of students want to become a doctor or an engineer ( very general scenario), but I realized the seriousness of this situation only in this year. I felt that I realized this so suddenly that now my friends who used to talk so silly and unreasonable until last year (till grade 10) are now talking about cracking entrance exams and only entrance exams most of the time! :) I know that it is a great change and a change for better but Class 11 really changes people in the most astonishing way possible. There are many who are so sure that their friends will not crack the entrances that they are betting their parent's shops and some are willing to be their servant for their entire life! Well I...

My Board Exams(2018)

Image
By Bishal Chettri My board exams kicked off with Foundation Of IT on 8th of March. The previous day I was really excited yet a bit nervous as it was my first board exam of my life technically. And I stayed awake till 11pm revising the chapters again and again, I really wanted my boards to start with optimism and that would be possible only if I did my first exam really well. So the next day I woke up early at 5am and did not revise until I reached the exam center which I had never visited before ; well many students from my school were already present there and I went a little ahead and checked my room against my roll number, I happened to be at the hall , I was really happy as hall has that atmosphere of board exams unlike a classroom. So I reached the hall by 9:55am with the help of my  friend and searched my desk and sat silently. A few seconds later the answer sheet was distributed to us. Never had I seen such cool answer sheets in my life, with CBSE 2018 punched on every...

How I prepared for my board exams

Image
Well, I had become very lazy by the end of November. I had my pre-boards in November and when they got over I was exhausted so much that I took a break of 1 week ! Then December came bringing much more cold than expected, and I had to study for 3 months from that time at home( December, January, February). I had confidence in my ability to handle the exam and the pressure along with it myself so I did not join any coaching center nor did I go for any tuitions.  I had ordered four booklets of sample papers however, and I thought of using them only after completing  the syllabus again by January.  So after 1 week of complete rest and isolation from studies I set off for the preparation of a very important landmark of my life, " The Board Exams". I went to meet my teachers on my birthday (1st December) in the name of giving sweets, I met them and received the things that I would really require during the coming months, that is, blessings , advice and encoura...
