A day filled with sweetness

For a long time, I really wanted to sit for an exam without reading a single page the day before. So yes I did that for the Strategy Management exam.

After the exam, I texted Kate and since both of us were free we planned to meet up. She brought cookies for me and I really liked the one I ate. It was yummy. 

For around an hour we roamed around a bit and talked about a lot of stuff from career plans to hobbies, Korean language and Indian food and a couple more things too. She told me she really likes Indian food and she goes to eat at Diwali twice a week with her other friends.

Then she went for lunch and I left for my class. After the lunch, I met another teacher in the Global Centre. She asked about my country and was so delighted to know I was from India.

She gave me tea which smelled really good. I loved it. She also gave cookies to me and Akira. Akira is a Malaysian friend of mine. I also met Alik today after really long and I was so glad to see him again.

I also was very happy to be complimented for my Korean Handwriting twice. Firstly, Kate said its beautiful and then the teacher in the global centre also complimented me. I was so happy to hear that.

Another good news for the day is I have also got an appointment with my Journalism Professor for thursday. I am very excited and also a little nervous about it.

In case you were wondering yes I enjoyed it but I did not perform well in the exam today. I really don't have plans to go the same way again but I too am trying to not take exams too seriously.

Its ok to have ok grades but what I am concerned about my knowledge. I really want to be better with G.K.

I have given myself a target to create a good knowledge base by the end of my 5th semester and atleast have the basic general knowledge. When I go back I am really gonna make more serious and consistent efforts to make newspapers a part of my life and try to stay more updated.

A day full of birthdays

Date - 20/09/2017 Today was Deepika Di's, Aizhan Aappa's and Anu Manhotra Ma'am's birthday.  Deepika Di was my senior in Shoolini. She was one of the seniors I have always admired and looked upto. Wishing her a happy birthday was one of the first things I did today. She is intelligent, confident, classy, beautiful, helpful and a sweetheart. I haven't known her for a very long time but it has been a great experience to know her.  I got to know about Aappa's birthday through facebook. I wasn't sure what to do. I was thinking about it all day. I had just planned to gift her a small choco pie which I had but then did not felt like gifting that alone.  I just thought that probably a letter with some birthday wishes would seem nice. I don't have any clues about Kazakh so I took a little help from Google.  I just wrote happy birthday in Kazakh and the entire message was in English. I also wrote Happy birthday in Hindi in the end. She was very happy and delight...

Aizhan Aapa

Date -07/09/2017 Aizhan Aapa is my first Friend here, besides Sujin Onni(my mentor). Actually her name is Aizhan but she is elder to me so I call her Aizhan Aapa. We both like it that way. Aizhan Appa is from Kazistan and is majoring in Korean language here. It is her second year here and she will be here for two more years. Apart from studies, she also works as an assistant in the dormitory office on alternative days here. Today I went for an evening walk with her. I always enjoy talking to her and spending some time with her. She is friendly, helpful and sweet. A lot of times when we are stuck with something or don't know how to do something in the dormitory she always tries to help her out. One day we got locked outside our room because all of us had forgotten our cards inside. Even on that day, she opened the door for us with the master card with a polite caution not to repeat the same mistake again. She is a huge fan of Indian movies especially Shah Rukh Khan. Today we tal...

Problems are okay!!!

This year, me and Kalyani learned an important thing - "Sometimes, its OK not to be okay". Don't underestimate this simple statement. Sometimes being able to say "its okay" is all you need in the moment. I hate to admit this to myself, but at times more you try fighting it more you end up losing. Rather than taking some impulsive and stupid decisions; give it some time. Simply let it pass. I will be honest, I am a real jerk when it comes to emotions but then most of us are. So, thats ok too. i know what works for me but when comes to practice, I often forget it at the moment. Wandering for the solution for weeks and after weeks of hard work you realize the solution was just in front of you staring at you all this while. More often than not, that is typically me. Remember, 'Late is better than never'. So, once its done, I like to smile and move on. There are always better problems that await. Cheers to this beautiful Life with its unending list of ...
