Hostel Life

-

A hostel is a shelter for the students who come from far off places. Students live there with each other and learn the value of discipline and co-operation. The atmosphere of a hostel is conducive to study.For living in a hostel can be an enriching experience. First of all there is the freedom factor. There is nobody breathing down your neck to see if you are studying or doing your homework. Then there is the prospect of outings with friends to the cinema, park or beach without the unpleasant task of begging permission from parents.
Yet in hostel we do learn to adjust in odd situations.  At home we are used to eating the things we like but in a hostel we have to eat whatever we are provided. It may not be tasty or even very hygienic but we don’t have a choice. In the begining of month students can even think of eating out but at the end of the month everyone has to adjust with the mess food , or by making maggi in their kettle. Maggi for a hostelite is like a blessing because it often act as a midnight snack. Apart from struggling with food , hostelite often struggle with their laundary most of the students have to wash their clothes on their own , and have to iron them.

We may become less fussy and demanding when we go home the next time and also appreciate our mother’s cooking more. Then there is the issue of privacy. Most often, two or three students have to share a room. A policy of give and take and mutual adjustment is very essential to get along with people of differing temperaments. If we can establish a bond of trust and camaraderie with our roommates then we are lucky.

It is better to be honest with each other and discuss problems openly. Space may be limited but even then we must not intrude on each other’s space. When someone falls sick, the other roommates should take care of the sick person for sickness exacerbates one’s homesickness. Sharing problems with each other can help form good relationships.

Roommates should share chores and take care not to do anything to offend others like playing music loudly or making a mess of the room. A few years of hostel life can therefore teach us valuable lessons in good social behavior.

Love Inside You!!!

-
Love is an incredible feeling. It is one of life’s most fulfilling experiences. The ability to have an affectionate and intimate connection with another person is one of the most important things in life. Love is as critical for your mind and body as oxygen. It's not negotiable. The more connected you are, the healthier you will be both physically and emotionally. The less connected you are, the more you are at risk. Love in its various forms acts as a major facilitator of interpersonal relationships and, owing to its central psychological importance, is one of the most common themes in the creative arts. Love is so hard to define because it doesn’t exist as a materialistic thing,  but feeling.We can feel love for our significant others, our parents, friends, children and pets. Some of us direct our love toward God, or celebrities, and we can showcase love for our neighbors, country and objects. Love can be blind, misguided, tragic, unconditional, steadfast and inconsistent. It ...

All izz Well

Love yourself, it is important to stay positive because beauty comes from the inside out. Positivity is something that comes from directly from our soul and lifestyle. Struggle and pain are not all that’s there, even if they’re all we can see in a certain moment. It's not easy to deal with problems but negativity is about finding fault and worry in people and situations. It’s about focusing on the one thing that went wrong when a zillion others went right. And it’s about belittling people without attempting to see who they are. Rather, it’s about choosing to see the good in life, believing in the power of encouragement, and having hope that things will get better .Positive thinking doesn't mean that you keep your head in the sand and ignore life's less pleasant situations. Positive thinking just means that we approach unpleasantness in a more positive and productive way. We think the best is going to happen, not the worst. Positivi...

Youth- The Age where both Mind and Heart is Confused...

-
Youth is that period when a human is attaining its mature state and development of the body is taking place. This is the period where you get old because you are expected to understand your r esponsibilities and when you wish to do something of your own, you are either pulled back and told that " YOU ARE KID "!! This is that time when you yourself are confused in taking the most important decision of your life. It is the age when a student is confused about what to do, whether he should continue with his studies or to sit for placements. It is that age when a young citizen is confused that to whom he should vote... It is that age when a friend is confused about her relationship with her closest buddy whether the care she has for him is just out of concern or she is getting attracted to him.. They say that the young minds are the most creative minds..but the reality is when they think there is always a conflict between the decisions taken from the heart and mind, they n...
