How's Life?

It has been a long long time since I updated you about my school and life, eh?? I always do forget it amidst my hectic life these days.



To begin with, as you all are thinking, my summer holidays haven’t begin yet!! Yea.….I can hear you gasp….I just hope you can hear me cry too. It’s not that I have a problem with going to school and studying; the only problem is with waking up early and the scorching heat. We always ignored the texts in our E.Ed books telling us about global warming, but now surely we feel the toll :(



Waking up at 5 am and then getting back home in the heat is a real ordeal. The school is only open for classes nine, ten eleven and twelfth by the way. So does that mean we

don’t feel the heat? Some one needs to understand that even though we are SUPPOSED to be grown ups……we do feel HOT!!!


Life is not a bed of roses, eh!


Life isn't a bed of roses


The teachers are just rushing with the vast syllabus. There’s too much of course to cover and too less time to do it. :|



There’s the annual concert coming up after these hols (which begin on the 21st of May) and its only thing which keeps us excited through the day. The preparations are in full swing :D



My partner (the girl sitting next to me) is really going crazy. She’s as sweet as honey but really insane!. She keeps scribbling on my hand!! Yea…can you believe it? She does all the calculations on my hand, even after I offer her rough sheets. LOL! And in the History and Hindi period when everyone including me is asleep she’s wide awake, any guesses doing what??

Scribbling on the part of my arms left after her calculations. She draws everything- from power puff girls, to flowers, to balloon and writing my name. And my arms are a scene you bet!



I’m basically completing my home assignments these days. After reaching class nine, I’ve no time….seriously!! You need to submit your chemistry practical file on Mondays, complete with 2-3 experiments. We get almost 20 sums in Maths. Then Tuesdays are busy for submission of Physics practical manuals, with 4-5 experiments. Wednesdays and Thursdays we have Hindi projects. Then Friday we have a History class test or Geography test. So you can imagine me sitting like an owl till 12 midnight completing all this stuff…..awww…And then you need to study by your own self too! Oh God!



I don’t even get time to read good novels!



You see how life is. I’m really in its traps. But I know it’ll all be a happy ending as soon as holidays begin (not denying, we have at least 28 holiday assignments)



And the good news is, I’m going out of town on the 21st. I am going to Kerala and will return by June 13th. Am really awaiting for the day to leave…..though I know I’ll miss all you guys but if I do get a chance, I promise to keep posting as much as possible from down south.



:HUGS:

CRICKET?!?!

11:30 am




It’s the greatest day in the world- why not? After all, India finally won the most coveted match against Australia. We SHOULD have a celebration- a GRAND one that is!

And who else, better than ME who arranges for the party and the celebrations? I AM the self confessed greatest cricket fan and lover ever!!! Go INDIA Go : )



PHONE CONVERSATION



Hello DJ (short for DHANANJAY)?

Yes yes….I’m very happy about the win, it was by a great margin too. A fabulous play by the boys!

Yes, so I was thinking why not have a celebration?

At my house.

I’ll arrange for the music and food.

But look, the party will be incomplete without fireworks marking India’s win.

Guessed it right bro. This is where I need your help.

Can you arrange for all the fireworks and manage the fire display? I’ll be grateful.

Yes thanks dude. An hour, right?

K….byeeee!

Party begins in full swing. The fire display by DJ is the greatest rave throughout the party



11:30 pm



Senile residents near by call to complain about the loud music and fire display but calls ignored



12:00 midnight



A rocket goes and hits the roof of neighbor’s shed. DJ runs away and so do most invitees so that they don’t get into trouble.



12:30 am



The shed burns down. Neighbors out of town and others are all asleep. I go myself and somehow manage to douse the fire.



01:00 am



I decide to peek inside and check what was destroyed. I have a peek and



01:04 am



OMG! My cricket gear all burned black and blue…..I remember I had rented this shed from Mrs. Kabadia a week ago to store my lavish cricket gear which has all now blown up in ashes !



This is what happens to those who trouble their neighbors late at night over wins in petty cricket matches. (Don’t dispute me here- not even cricket lovers please!) And Oh my! The ongoing IPL-season 2 matches are really a scare with my crazy cricket loving neighbors and brother !!

What Do Tears Say?

What Do Tears Say?

The child cries, and wails again


The tears fall, and what do they say?


Oh baby, it’s okay, mom will be here soon


To wipe me away



The girl cries and silently sobs


The tears fall, and what do they say?


Don’t worry He is there looking upon you


And He will send all joys your way



The guy shouts


And tears fall, what do they say?


Oh dear, it was just a match


Just don’t let your confidence fade away



The teacher cries


And tears fall, what do they say?


You aren’t supposed to shed me


Don’t let your students go astray



The workman sighs and turns


As tears fall, what do they say?


Have strength- it’ll all be fine


Don’t let your life go gray



I cry


My tears fall, what do they say?


You know you have friends to help you out


Just get to the blog and write away!

IQ Level?

British Teenagers IQ Level diminishing


I just read some shocking results of some tests carried out in 1980, which were repeated again in 2008.




I’m talking about IQ tests for teenagers in Britain, of course!



But can you guess what the result is?? I already gave a clue…..whatever they are, the results are seriously shocking!!



It shows that the average points for 14-year-old dropped by more than two points over the period.



Among those in the upper half of the aptitude scale, a group that mostly consists of children from middle class families, showed an even worse result, with an average IQ score six points below what it was 28 years ago.



Can you believe it? And then the Gen Next calls it the IT hub and what not!!



The trend marks an abrupt reversal of the so-called "Flynn effect" which has seen IQ scores rise year on year, among all age groups, in most industrialized countries throughout the past century.



Professor James Flynn, of the University of Otago in New Zealand, the discoverer of the Flynn effect (which states that IQ scores rise year after years, among all age groups, in most industrialized countries.) and the author of the latest study, believes that this abnormal drop in British teenage IQ could be due to youth culture having gone down the drain.



He found that while children aged between five and 10 saw their IQs increase by up to half a point a year over the three decades, teenagers performed less well.



Other studies have shown how pervasive teenage youth culture is, and what we see is parents' influence on IQ slowly diminishing with age.



The only thankful result is that the test wasn’t conducted on Indian students (though I hope they’d have given better results) or who knows, what a heart attack the parents might have got!!



Just imagine the parents struggling day and night, and what for? Their children to get even lower grades than they did 20 years ago!



This really is distressing new guys. I just gave a loud sigh!



What do you think? Care to share your thoughts please!
