My second home

So after a week of online classes, we reached the college again. When I reached college, I felt immense joy. In the early days of taking admission to the college, I wanted to somehow complete this course quickly. Because I entered this course without any interest. Somewhere in these last few days, I started enjoying the B Ed life without even realizing it The classes were conducted in two batches keeping in view the covid situation. First section teacher Maya took the class. Then there were the optional classes. Shabhana teacher came to take a class. Today was the last day of the teacher's teaching practice. Today is the last one As a class, we took a group photo. Good feedback was also given to the teacher. The teacher was very happy. In the afternoon the class was taken by the Gibi teacher.

On a journey to become a butterfly

Image
  Today, was indeed a very beautiful day. As usual a day full of new insights. The most memorable things in life are the sparks we receive. All of us go through stages of self-doubt, anxiety, stress and we all need time to time reassurance that everything is going to be ok. Sometimes we work so hard, we give our all but we don't get the result we expect, we feel shattered and desperate. We even question our self-worth.  Today Dr.Maya ma'am asked us whether a butterfly is a teacher and then she told as about the metamorphosis that a butterfly goes through to become this beautiful. The journey is not going to be easy, it's even going to be impossible but know that the destination we want to reach requires all these struggles. Welcome each failure and struggles with an open hand and don't lose hope in something that you love to become.

Today's assembly was conducted by Natural science optional. The assembly began with a prayer. There was a prayer, pledge, good thoughts, campus news, the importance of the week, and importance of the day. They donated books to the college library.

Today is the day we social science students have been waiting for. Yes, today was the gift-giving day for the Christmas front. It's already too late. We were waiting to get everyone in the class together. Yes, today was the day and 16 people from the class came today. We exchanged gifts. Everyone was very happy.

A Revelation

  It was the Natural Science department's turn for the assembly today. The day was extra special because it was the first assembly of the year as well as Swami Vivekananda's birthday which was celebrated as 'National Youth Day.' we are here for a good cause, we can have what we want if we work hard and keep the flame lit, feel no fear of the future and regrets from the past because all we have is 'now', take the chance and make it worth that we lived in the present, and that we can have the assurance that we will not have the regrets in the near future because   'Life gives you plenty of time to do whatever you want to do if you stay in the present..'   So take every chance and LIVE..

 A New Year and an Old Me After a long wait of 10 days, the college reopened today. Never have I felt days are too long to pass by. I had a lot of work to do for the vacation time and was completely into it. I waited each day to pass by so that I can meet my friends. That's the thing about my college and the people around there, the moment I leave the campus I miss it. The building, classroom, endless talks, laughter, in short, I missed it all for these past 10 days and the moment I reached my college today, I felt at home. Always welcoming, my happy place.  We had our optional class for the first two periods. We studied what to teach and how to teach today.  After that we had the class of Dr.Joju sir, he taught us about how to make an e-content. It was indeed a very insightful class.  Then we had the class of Dr.Maya ma'am. She taught us about the various qualities that a teacher must possess.
