SEASON OF EXAMINATION...

Hello Friends,

How are you all?

Soon our M.A Semester-2 university exams are soon going to start. I am very excited for my exams, but I was a bit disappointed today. I heard one of my classmate speaking this:-
“ I Never write properly in my internal exams because I know Sir will do word to word checking, but in university exams I will fill pages and pages because they give marks according to pages not content.”

I was disappointed to hear this.

Firstly i would like to share this quote, before I move further...

It creates doubt on university and exams system as well. I can’t or anyone can surely say is it true or not. If a student is writing pages and pages and getting good marks, then what about students who are focusing on content? I should not believe any XYZ comments I know. But when you are working hard and someone just says I will score on the basis of supplementary, of course any normal student will be irritated. In future we all are going to be professors or teachers, are we going to teach this to our students?

And what about performing in internal exams? And the main question is…..

What about that teacher who is taking a lot of pain in arranging internal exams and checking papers?

You are not performing because he reads each and every word. Well then I guess some students want teachers who just see the handwriting and the numbers of pages filled and give you highest score.

I really don’t know…but I know one thing which my teacher has said “Ability matters not scores, Content matters not pages.”

A request to students who has mentality as stated above: - Change your attitude otherwise when you will become a teacher, and I am afraid FUTURE GENERATION will suffer a lot.

We as a student should not encourage things said like this. I am writing this because there are many people who think filling pages will fill their future….like really???? Come out of that illusion.

That’s a journey of more than a thousand steps, and a single blog post isn’t the place that can change anyone. But this post was, for me, a place to state that “There is no other option for hard work.”

Work hard and read well friends……

WISHING YOU ALL…BEST OF LUCK FOR YOUR UPCOMING EXAMS.

LET’S Rock it…..

"RIP"; Rest in Peace those who are Alive....

Hello Friends, After a long time I am writing here. Hope you all are fine. This time I have come up with a different interpretation of the phrase “RIP”. Mostly this phrase “RIP”; Rest in Peace is used for the people who are no more. We use this phrase to give sympathy towards the departed soul. The soul may get peace wherever it travels. No one exactly knows where the soul travels. Sometimes this phrase is used out of care and sometimes just for show off on social media. While sitting alone near a cemetery, a thought struck in my mind. Why do we use RIP only for dead people????? We can also use it for those who are alive. Many time people use RIP when a person is dead. The same people might have harassed the dead person when he is alive. So what’s the point of “RIP”? Suppose in the day time you behave very badly with someone. Is he/she going to get sound and peaceful sleep at night? The dead person will never come back so we just say “RIP”. Of course ever...

" The Winged Word"- David Green

In my Graduation syllabus, I had a book named “ The Winged word”. This anthology is edited by David Green. It is anthology of poems compiled for the students of English literature in the B.A courses of Indian Universities. The chronological order, in which the poets are arranged in this book, helps the students to note the development of English poetry from one age to another. Referring to this book after a long time span, gives me a immense joy. There are many poems in this book. We were given some selected poems to study during three years of graduation. The poems which were in my syllabus are as follow:- 1.) I Find No Peace – Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503-42) 2.) My Friend, the Things That Do Attain –Henry Howard (1517- 47) 3.) The Nymph’s Reply to the Shepherd –Sir Walter Ralegh (1552-1618) 4.) The Nightingale – Sir Philip Sidney (1554- 86) 5.) Since There’s No Help – Michael...

“The Nymph’s Reply to the Shepherd” - Sir Walter Raleigh.

Hello friends, I would like to share a poem “The Nymph’s Reply to the Shepherd” by Sir Walter Raleigh. I studied this poem during my graduation. Sir Walter Raleigh was an English landed gentleman, writer, poet, soldier, politician, courtier, spy and explorer. Raleigh was one of the most notable figures of the Elizabethan era. Before knowing something about this poem, it is necessary to read the poem “The Passionate Shepherd to His Love” by Christopher Marlowe. Sir Walter Raleigh wrote this poem as a reply to Christopher Marlowe's poem, “The Passionate Shepherd to His Love” . Let us see both the poems together. In Marlowe's poem, the shepherd flatters his love by making promises of an ideal life and all sorts of material things and advantages. In this poem the nymph replies the shepherd. This reply is somewhat harsh that the shepherd doesn’t want to hear. According to her love is not permanent. She doesn’t trust him...
