  MY FIRST FRENCH ARTICLE Bonjour! Je m’appelle Palash Saxena. J’ai seize ans, mais je vais avoir dix-sept ans dans trois semaines. J'étudie au onzième niveau. J’habite à Greater Noida avec mes parents, qui m'aiment beaucoup. J'étudie dans une école très réputée, qui s’appelle Delhi Public School Greater Noida. J’ai beaucoup d'amis et j’aime jouer avec eux après l'école.  C’est ma première dissertation. Dans cette dissertation, je vais parler de ma journée.  Alors, je me réveille à 6h30, parce que je ne me réveille pas à 6h00 sans ma mère en me criant. Après cette routine quotidienne, j’habille, je mange mon petit-déjeuner, et je prends le bus à l'école. A l'école, il y a beaucoup de périodes. Par exemple, il y a l’anglais, l'écriture, le lecture, le découvrir le monde, etc. apres l’ecole, je revenis a ma maison. Puis, j’ai mon déjeuner avec ma famille à 3h00. Puis, j'étudie pour mes examens pour trois heures. J’avec mon dîner avec ma mère, mon frère...

  Rehabilitation Rehabilitation or more commonly known as rehab, is a very well-known remedy for treatment of people who have suffered any form of mental, physiological, or emotional trauma of any sort. So, what exactly is rehab? And how do the traumatised benefit from it? Rehab is a form of intensive care provided to the people who have lost their ability to live in a healthy environment.  Note when I say ‘healthy’ here, I am referring to the social, mental and physical well-being of the person, not just the physical. For that, I would have used specific language, like ‘sanitised’, ‘hygienic’, etc. Coming back to the main topic, why do these special people need rehab? Well, there can be multiple reasons that a person needs rehab.  The first can be that the person has just gone through a very traumatic experience and is unable to fend off the haunting memories of that particular encounter/experience. This hinders his capacity to work efficiently in the society, thus makin...

  LIFE: A BIG WHEEL OF VICES Have you ever wondered; do you really want to become what you want to become in your life? I mean, human lives are sacrosanct (ask the people who believe in astrology), so why would people waste it on something worthless, or something which is not going to be a whole lot productive in the long run?  Actually, the wheel of life is a lot more intricate than most people imagine. Wait, how are we even sure that life is a big old wheel? It can be a line as well, don’t you think? Well, there’s a reason why we have termed life as a wheel. Do you experience some moments in your life when you feel like, "Didn’t this stuff happen before?” Well, this feeling is something called déjà vu. So, if we experience similar moments multiple times in a single life, we can say that life is a wheel, right? Now, here is where choices come in… Let’s go back to our imaginary wheel. Can we branch it off? Obviously not. It’s a circle, duh. Then how come we can choose what we ...

NOTES Notes… yes, you heard me right, notes. Today I’m going to talk about the nightmare of a high school student (yours truly, of course). Notes are like those little creatures that so frequently haunt your dreams as distant, yet fatal memories, and by continuously attacking them… take on a much grotesque and terrifying incarnation. These little (yet fatal… have I written that before?) horrors are found in the one place where we go on a daily basis. What do you think? If you are guessing ‘school’, then you win a Nobel prize! (Not really the time for sarcasm, was it?) Switching the topic, what are notes, why are they created, and what is the end result of creating notes? I’m going to ponder on these questions in my blog. So get ready to dive into the ever-amusing (will I ever stop? This sarcasm is really sort of becoming my thing.) world of notes and look for why are they necessary. Starting off with the first question: what are notes? Well, what I’ve learnt is that notes are scri...

  Climate Change Okay… this topic has been the talk of town for, I don’t know, decades….? Seriously, this topic will one day be forged in the hall of legends, where onlookers will regret the day that they let their mother planet be reduced to this rag-tag, near death state. We humans are the apex population of this planet. In terms of the food chain, we might even be the compared to Hercules. But in consideration to the state we’ve converted our planet to… I’m not as sure whether this is going to be beneficial or not. But there is one thing I am 100% sure of: we are destroying our planet… bit by bit. We are the origin of innumerable amounts of problems, for example; deforestation, ozone layer depletion, you name it, you got it. No one’s got as vicious a talent for mass environmental devastation as mankind.  So, what can be done to prevent this apocalyptic dilemma? Well, there are many intermediates by which the mammoth-like task of conserving the environment can be achie...

  Self-Management Can Self-management have positive outcomes as well as negative? Don’t ask me … this question is for you. Self-management requires an immense amount of discipline… which I have a lot of trouble in practising. (how can people even do this??? I want to know what sort of medication do they take or what they do to achieve such degree of hard-core discipline.) in short, self-management is an arduous process. Self-management can be a boon to some and it can be a nuisance to others. Entrepreneurs, as all of us are well aware of, can find opportunities and potential market strategies in the face of the worst kind of obstacles. The main reason for their keen eye is patience. And with patience, comes the two-in-one package of discipline. You can take the example of any profession you want to relate yourself with… all of them have the patience to wait for the right moment to make their move. Since I’ve indulged into this subject too much, why not acquaint you all with t...

  COVID 19: Impact on Schools Imagine you are in a field, where you are playing soccer with your team. You are supposed to defeat the opponent team. But suddenly, out of the blue, they send in a surprise pack. A player whose dexterity is unmatched by any player on your team, and he is able to counter your every move. This situation is relatable to what is happening now. This COVID disease is like a big, silent monster who is hell-bent on decimating almost a thirds of the world’s current populace. This virus is running amok round the world… and we’re watching haplessly how this virus’ onslaught will culminate in massive catastrophes. Now… I am genuinely scared of what is going to happen henceforth. My finals are about to start on the 12 th of February and we’re nowhere close to controlling the spread of this contaminating agent. I am pretty much annoyed, bored and agonized by the present COVID already to have another type faltering our way of life too. Sure, this virus has be...
