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. 😊😊😊

#Article370

PC - News18 Over the past 16 days I have tried to read and listen to as many opinions as I could. Both in favour and against the scrapping of #Article370 irrespective of my personal belief and views on the matter. Although, honestly I am not sure if I have any. Its two weeks and having heard both sides I am still divided. But what's weird, is there are only 3 men from Kashmir I personally know who I have had discussions in the past. All three of them are moderate in their beliefs and considerate towards other communities as well unlike how many would like them to be portrayed, but today I don't see either of them supporting what's going on. They are the people who have lived in Kashmir and know ground realities better than many of us will ever know. I might not have the knowledge, experience and expertise to speak on such matters but  reading School time textbooks on Politics offlate just made me feel their voices need to be heard. That's the least we could do

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

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
