Completing the Korean Course

Today we finally completed our Korean language course. In our last class we played Yut nori.

Yut Nori is a traditional Korean game that is played with a set of four log shaped blocks. Each log is flat on one side and round on the other side. Along with the blocks there is a board and different coloured pieces for a team. Each player tries to complete the round and get out o win.

Our team lost the game so we had to sing a song. We sang a small Korean song that we had learnt in the beginning.But I could not remember it so I was just standing and trying to sing a bit.

After that some of us also wore the Hanbok (i.e. the Korean traditional dress) and took a lot of pictures that our teacher had brought for us. I also wore it and clicked a few pics. Although I have already tried the Hanbok before but I never miss a chance to wear it. I think it is very pretty and I love it.

Later, as the other teacher had already informed us Park Mam came with our results and score cards. Elzar had secured the first position in our class. I was so happy for her. She was the youngest in our class. She is so cute and adorable. I think she was really the one person you can describe as a Kiddo in our class.

I was a little scared about the result but I was so happy when I saw it. I had secured an average of 96% in the test. I was so glad about that.

But the best part was our entire class got good grades and each one of us actually recieved the Certificate of Merit too. We were so happy. All three of us (me, Anu Di and Varsha Di) secured more than 90% score.

Before leaving, we clicked pictures with our teacher and bid her farewell as she would also be leving for a vacation in Vietnam in the coming week.

After leaving the class, all of us went to the cafeteria to enjoy a meal together. Although Mam could not come with us but she had given all of us free coupons so that we could enjoy the meals together.

Today, all of us were so happy for successfully completing the Korean language course. But as we were leaving, we all were a little sad too because we will really miss this class and especially our teacher- the world's cutest teacher.

P.S. Sharing it with my mom and brother, all the friends and the professors was another moment of joy and pride in itself. I am so happy. Yippee!!! We have finally completed our Korean Language course and that too with nice grades. 😊😊😊

A letter to my happy tear

Sometimes we make things so much bigger in our hearts that it becomes impossible for the events to match our anticipation and even the slightest misdirections to our plans end up grounding them altogether. Exactly an year ago, on October 17, my father-in-law called me and told us that our wedding dates had been fixed. It had been a long-distance courtship but as the luck would have it, we were right there together to celebrate the good news. The next four months were probably the happiest period of my life. Even as I felt lonely without him, I would simply count down our days to the wedding. Soon enough, my joy and excitement became too visible. I don't think I have ever taken care of myself any better. I couldn't wait to get married.  I don't think there was a day I didn't think of him before I ended my day. I simply couldn't wait to be his wife. To his credit, it has all been worth it. Even as we are yet to find our way to a shared roof, Akhil you ...

Remember your champions...

Akhil you know I can't go a long time without writing you love letter but am too lazy to visit a post office..so this one is for you... Everytime I am told I am stupid for choosing my passion, I just wanna look at you, remind myself and know we got this and will always find a way... Every time I feel alone or down, seek validation or feel the need to prove myself or my worth...I may take my time but ultimately every ride has taught me how I have my biggest champion at home. Chahe uss din wo kitchen mein bitaye 12 ghante hon ya hours spent on the most basic blog...even if noone else could see, you were the one cheering me on. Even if you were the one taking care of it all, you always ensured I knew we were a team.  At a time, when I almost felt invisible, u were the one who reminded me I mattered. Listened to my rants and then scolded me when u could not see me stay sad anymore. Even if a part of me was torn, you made sure I finally had fun at a wedding.  When I fel...

Navigating the tug between love & identity

It is so much easier for the world to see what a man contributes but a woman's struggles often remain her silent bouts.  The standards are literally so low for a man, not being abusive makes them amazing. For women, standards are so high that even standing up for themselves becomes a problem. What a woman does is probably only visible to her partner and mother. Because it is the only place we can safely cry and share our perspective.  Recently we went for a dinner where I was told, in a lighter note, how lucky I was to have my husband. I would never say otherwise. I always thank God for him and noone is more aware of what he brings to the table. But, despite being his biggest champion, it suddenly dawned on me how in the seven months of my marriage I have literally seen everyone say the same thing yet I have never heard anyone say he is probably lucky to have me too.  While he remains my biggest champion and sees through every single night of my struggle, tear and strengt...
