Reviving my blog

-
 Welcome back!! I know I haven't posted anything on my blog for quite some time : more than two months. How would I? My God! These two and a half months, beginning from August, have left me literally exhausted. Examinations kept me occupied in this period, and it is only today that I find some time to write something on my blog.

Anyway, today I just want to wish you all a Happy Diwali. Today also marks the birthday of Chacha Nehru. So, I would also like to take the opportunity to wish all my friends a Happy Children's Day. Let us make our nation great in the coming days.

Oh, I forgot to mention one thing. I am quite aggrieved you know, because I can hear the sound of crackers being burst in my locality. Please do not burst fire crackers this year. I personally love to burst crackers. But, nothing is going to happen if we do not burst crackers this year. We should only light candles this year to decorate our house. The COVID-19 patients are going to face serious problems in the coming days, if we do not think of them, and burst crackers. So, I humbly request you all once again : please don't burst crackers this year. 

So long for today. Good night!

Beginning of a new journey

Hello everyone, I am Aishik Bandyopadhyay.  I am thirteen and am a Xaverian, from Durgapur.  Today, I am writing a blog for the first time. The current Covid-19 pandemic has forced all of us to stay at home now. During this time, I hear that many people are getting bored of staying at home. Well, I don't quite agree with them. Take me as an example. Personally, I feel that many of us can come up with more and more activities to keep ourselves engaged. I am writing this blog because I felt that instead of sitting idle and wasting my time, why not utilize it to explore and discover my interests! I got the inspiration of writing a blog from my respected English teacher, who too writes a blog. So, for quite some time, I was pondering over the idea of writing a blog. One day, my interest, of writing a blog, knocked at my door louder than ever, and when I opened it, he said, "Hey! Why don't you go for it if you really want to?" I said, "Okay, let me think." But he...

Happy New Year 2021 : Old tears and renewed hopes

-
Welcome back, one and all! Let me at first wish all of you a very Happy New Year 2021. May the coming year bring us a reason to hope, to smile and to cherish. So, another year goes by, as each one of us begin to weave a new fabric of renewed joy and hope : not only individually, but also as a society. Last year, the wretched virus (COVID-19 will be a wretched virus for me, forever ) attacked the fabric, leaving many tears in it. Let's hope that this year, we can keep this fabric intact, and can keep our memories embedded in it, by the time we have to bid goodbye to 2021. We will weave this fabric with the finest thread on Earth. The thread is not available anywhere, save the core of our heart.  My maternal grandpa today shared a poem of his with me, in relation to the new year being happy. I would like to share it with all of you:- বিষ নিয়ে বিশ এসেছিল হেথা তাকে বিদায় জানাতে নাই কোন ব্যাথা। এবার এসেছে নতুন একুশ জীবন সবার থাকে যেন খুশ। (Translated, in prose form : 2020 came to us to...

The New Normal : Rethinking and Redefining

-
Aloha! Well, I know I haven't written for quite a few days. But, I am back today! So today, I am going to write about something which, to many of you, will be very, very--I don't know what. It may seem very weird to you, or it may seem very surprising. You may strongly agree with this, or you may start hating me after this post. But, believe me, it is absolutely necessary to think about it, because we haven't thought about it earlier. Or maybe some of us have? Well, just a few days ago, I was reading, in Geography, a chapter called 'Population Dynamics'. There, in the gender composition, I was reading why, particularly in India, the female composition is so less. Varied reasons. I hope you can understand what I want to speak about today. Anyway, statistics say that the gender ratio of India in 2001 was 933 females per 1,000 males. And what was the ratio in 2011? It was only 940 females per 1,000 males! Many of you might say, "Yeah, so what's the matter ? ...
