Summer of 2015, done with my 10th boards. I was busy daydreaming of becoming an Architect because it was the only field that had common interests of mine (the creative art and craft) and my father's (the safe scope involved in the field, because he's the one who was supposed to pay my fees). On the suggestion of my bossy sibling (Ugh), I went ahead and explored a bit of the field.<\/p>
Smart cities are the cities that work on improvising themselves to function more efficiently. Technology acts as an amazing catalyst in the process. Especially, to collect the data on consumer services, traveling and mobility information, the infrastructure, weather conditions and a lot more that affect each place to make it livable for people or to establish a business et-cetera.<\/p>
Since the past 2 decades, people worldwide, are aiming at making their city smart because of the advantages it has. There's easier access to almost any service.<\/p>
While the Architects and Civil Engineers are pondering over ideas to create more smart cities, it has occurred to me that, as we go on, our population is increasing (at an absurd rate honestly) and any changes they make to the cities become the foundations of the future generations' lives.<\/p>
<\/p>
For example, Navi Mumbai has been one of the cities, selected for this mission. So to make it a Smart City, a lot of work goes into it. The structure of Mumbai and the placing of buildings and their division (into residential areas, tourist attractions, business purposes etc., based on the conditions of the places) is carefully planned. Once it is planned and implemented, it is most likely that there will be flats on top of flats to enable living and working spaces for more people in future.<\/p>
One day, if they find a mistake or a trouble, it might not be easier to change it because of all the settlement that has happened.<\/p>
Now that they are planning it for many cities, I feel it is very important to keep the environment in mind, no matter which kind of place it might be. Now that there is awareness about climate change, it would be a great idea to include farming and gardening in Smart cities, even if it is on building tops, in case no space on ground can be accommodated.<\/p>
More Eco-friendly techniques such as, solar panels (which could be subsidized by the government), water conservation systems automatically attached in the buildings or at least a common system for the entire community, management of plastic could be included while Smart cities are planned.<\/p>
It is a small change that could save us from a lot of difficulty in the future and makes it a better place to live.<\/p>"}]
Music is life. That's why our hearts have beats.<\/i><\/p>
Dream it, Believe it, Be it<\/b> says the Justin Beiber of our college. Bobby of 3rd year from the Ece department is well known for his music. No one can stop themselves from swinging to his beats. He is making everyone fall in love with his voice.<\/p>
It all started when I was in my 4th standard he recalls. His mother took him to the singing classes actually to join his sister but the teacher noticed his talent and took personal interest to teach him music for free without any expense. He started learning off with Carnatic music as his mother was also into the same. <\/p>
But his mind drove him to western music and so he learned guitar and certified up to 5 grades in it. And now his greatest inspiration is the Canadian singer Justin Beiber. He also learned western vocals and he's more of a pop singer. He actually wanted to build his career towards music but as insisted by his parents his point of interest is on education right now but music is his part and parcel of life and once he completes his graduation he would surely work towards his passion.<\/p>
Instead, he is the president of our music club and is the center of attraction for any event that goes on in and around our college. He was among the top 5 in the competition held by the SRM University in solo performance. He along with his band has presented many concerts in various colleges and is now tied up with an organization that would give him even more opportunities to showcase his worth and talent. <\/p>
There are 3 main reasons for him to choose singing, firstly he loves it, secondly, he wants to earn more money in order to serve the poor by his hard-earned money and that last one is to gain a recognition that simply means he wants to be remembered by the people even after his death as a great singer.<\/p>
Wishing him all the success to achieve his dream!!!<\/p>"}]
\u201cYeah stop stop your\u2019re going to take someone\u2019s eye besides your saying it wrong ,it\u2019s Leviosa` not Leviosawww..\u201d\n Yea yea\u2026.How can someone forget these lines of Hermione, I am damn sure that your mind might have some flashes of Harry Potter series and definitely the theme song \u2026.Oh My God!!!! The simplicity ,the stillness in the music ,the intensity, the hidden mystery behind the music it\u2019s just beyond awesomeness\u2026.it still gives me goosebumps .<\/p>
So basically every child have their own world of dreams, fantasies and every child belives in miracles ,magic or an apt word would be mythology, it might be because our elders belived them and passed them on through stories and I was that kind of child who would belive these stuffs\u2026.I always fascinated Harry\u2019s world . I desperately wanted to own a wand so that I could makes objects fly and grab objects which are far away. You know what I still want a Nimbus 2000,which Harry got himself from Prof. McGonagall and more than these, I always wanted a full time fun school which is full of magic which would have subject like devination, protions ,quidditch and the most important thing is I could learn MAGIC!!!<\/p>
Not only features of the magic world but characters of Harry Potter series.\nI love Hermione, because she is different in her own kind, she neither liked sports nor fashion. she was the smartest wizard of her age, she\u2019s responsible and she could do anything for the sake of justice and fairness. The best thing in Hermione is that she doesn\u2019t change herself to please someone.\n<\/p>
One thing was clear that Hermione was the ultimate role model for all the girls, besides there was one character I loved better , The fiery Ginny Weasley. she was shy girl who had crush on \u201cThe boy who lived\u201d, but at the end of series the real Ginny!!! she was stubborn, brave, strong who is equal to Harry Potter. She was there when Harry was having his hard times, she never really gave up on him. <\/p>
The other character which I loved was Luna Lovegood \u2013 she was frank and unique ,she was indifferent ,she have totally different fashion sense\u2026.she don\u2019t give damn what anyone thinks of her.<\/p>
And guys I will suggest your to read books ,there are many things that you would not know mere seeing movies\u2026like you would not know about Teddy Tonks, you would not know about winky and her struggle, that Neville\u2019s parents are alive and in St. Mungo\u2019s , you would know the whole story behind Snape, you would not know who Peeves is and how important he was, you would not know what Dudley\u2019s last words to Harry were. <\/p>
Finally I would say be brave as Harry, the boy who lived; as smart as Hermione, the girl who knew; as loyal as Ron, the boy who loved; as determined as Neville, the boy who grew; as strong as Ginny, the girl who fought and as unique as Luna, the girl who belived.<\/p>
I wish Harry Potter was real , I will never forgive J.K.Rowling for introducing me a world which is not real but it is said that \u201cThe stories we love best do live in us forever..\u201d\nGoshh!!!!!this is going to be difficult , I could write pages together there is no such thigh that I hate about Harry Potter every inch is noted. i cant still feel the same magic as begining<\/p>

It was midnight 2 O\u2019clock. A cab was waiting outside our hostel gate to pick me up. As I got down the stairs as slowly as I could lest I would get caught, a series of memories flashed before me. I recollected the day I entered into the college premises, high of spirit and with the zeal to crack the JEE. My mom praising me, encouraging and motivating me to fulfill my dream. My relatives, my friends and even my school Principal whom I always feared, talking of the future they assume to have already seen and believing that it was supposed to happen. Then a phone call from my cab driver brought me back to this world. I was suddenly alerted. I checked my bag and belongings, I read the letter that I wrote the previous night, for my fellow roommates and the whole college, opened the door and left. While I was in the car, I went back into my thoughts. I was loved, cared and respected by every single person in the college. The first few weeks appeared to be a bliss. My constant top scores, the fun that I had with my friends, the silly jokes and last but not the least, the belief that \u2018I can do\u2019 and \u2018I will do\u2019. When I recollected all this, even then, at that moment, I doubted whether I was doing the right thing. But the very next moment, the discrimination that I had been facing since past one month, the rude words of our Principal, the insult, the fault accusation made by my friends on me, the treatment that I face in my college at present, all flashed before me. I then made firm decision that whatever I was doing was absolutely right. There is no space for second thoughts. By the time I came out of my thoughts, I was in train that was supposed to take me to everyone\u2019s dream city \u2018Mumbai\u2019. I was planning to begin a business. I contacted my senior at school the other day who runs a boutique. I wanted to work with her and simultaneously pursue a fashion designing course. My low scores in week tests at college in the second year, the constant humiliation from our Principal, the insulting and sarcastic looks of my so-called friends, have made me realise that I do not have the capability to get into the IIT\u2019s or NIT\u2019s to pursue engineering. And as I have no interest in doing engineering in other universities or colleges other than these, I now move on to my other field of interest, Fashion designing, and wish to excel atleast in this field. The most disappointing thing is that even my mom feels that I do not have the capability to achieve a seat in the IIT\u2019s. I want to show her that I may not be that good at maths and science, but I am surely good at fashion designing.\nI reached Mumbai, I met my friend and we enjoyed the whole day. We were supposed to begin our work from next day. As the night came, I could feel my heart becoming heavier and heavier. I was unable to sleep. Tears rolled down my eyes. I controlled myself and prayed to God. The next day, we got ready and were about to leave for the boutique. Just then a maiden came and fell on my friend\u2019s feet and began crying. She said this way -\nAmma, my son is missing. He left a letter stating that he would return home only after becoming a great businessman. It would take five years, ten years or more. But until then we should not think of him, miss him, or try to contact him. Amma, I cannot live without him. I don\u2019t mind if he does not get good marks are get a good job. But I want him. Please, amma do something and find him. I cannot live without him.\nShe wept for about half an hour. Seeing her weeping, I could not control myself and cried to my heart\u2019s content. I wondered if my mother would also be crying the same way reading the letter I had left in the hostel. . I longed to go back. Just then, a newspaper boy threw a newspaper into the house. I could see someone\u2019s photo in the front page posted by some college. I took it to see. I was shocked to see that it was not anyone else\u2019s but mine. I had topped the state in intermediate first year. I was such a fool to not realize that we were to get our intermediate results the previous day. I did not even bother to check my results the previous day. That photo instilled new confidence in me. I felt that may be if I strongly wish and aspire to do something I will achieve it. The society may speak whatever they want. But I should know my capabilities. When I believe that I can do, I mean it. So with the same spirit, I went back to Hyderabad and apologized everyone.\n<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1569147037235},{"id":1569147880997,"type":"img","data":"5d874be911995"}]
\"PERSONECO\" Reflects a Person and is called as 'PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT' or 'SELF EVOLUTION' in Esperanto language. Personality is what makes a person unique. Personality development helps to develop an identity and leave a long lasting impression on others. The development of personality starts from the day a child is born. The earlier you start building your personality the better. By Following the FIT INDIA MOVEMENT launched by our beloved PM Narendra Modi, St.Ann's Degree and PG college has conducted many sessions. PERSONECO was one of the amazing session among them. It was conducted by Mr.Bhaskar, an Ex-HR and Administrator for many companies, who dedicated his life to NUTRITION Field since past 20 years. He Untangled us clearly how the PERSONECO began before the ages. He demonstrated a flourishing sloka of Bhagavad Gita : \"vyavasayatmika buddhir\n ekeha kuru-nandana\n bahu-sakha hy anantas ca\n buddhayo 'vyavasayinam\". TRANSLATION\nThose who are on this path are resolute in purpose, and their aim is one. O beloved child of the Kuru's, the intelligence of those who are irresolute is many-branched. He Demonstrated how Personality development includes Our physical, mental, social, emotional and spiritual development. One can evolve their psyche and goal with SMART Work i.e., Specific - Measurable - Achievable - Realistic and Time bound Work. To Tag along with the SMART Work as reach a GOAL, one should have all these features : Positive Thinking, Anger Management, Time Management, Self- Confidence, Stress and Fear Control, Communication and Questioning skills, Goal setting, Decision Making and so on.

Be You and Love Yourself, Be Strong and Confident, Be Happy, Then You Will Be Successful.<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1569115250651}]
Punishment in Kindergarten\" is a little autobiographical poem by the famous Indo-Anglian poet Kamala Das. She recalls one of her childhood experiences. When she was in the kindergarten, one day the children were taken for a picnic. All the children except her were playing and making merry. But she alone kept away from the company of the children. Their teacher, a blue-frocked woman, scolded her saying.\n\n \"Why don't you join the others, what\n\n A peculiar child you are!\"\n\n This heard, all the other children who were sipping sugar cane turned and laughed. The child felt it very much. She became sad at the words of the teacher. But the laughter by the children made her sadder. She thought that they should have consoled her rather than laughing and insulting her. Filled with sorrow and shame she did her face in a hedge and wept. This was indeed a painful experience to a little child in the nursery school.\n\n Now after many years she has grown into an adult. She has only a faint memory of the blue-frocked woman and the laughing faces of the children. Now she has learned to have an 'adult peace' and happiness in her present state as a grown-up person. Now there is no need for her to be perturbed about that bitter kindergarten experience. With her long experience in life she has learned that life is a mixture of joy and sorrow. She remembers how she has experienced both the joy and sorrow of life. The long passage of time has taught her many things. She is no more a lonely individual as she used to feel when she was a child. The poet comes to a conclusion that there is no need for her to remember that picnic day, when she hid her face in the hedge, watching the steel-white sun, that was standing lonely in the sky.\n\n The poem is written in three stanzas, each having different number of lines \u2013 the first with seven lines, the second with six and the third with nine. The poem does not follow any regular rhyme scheme. The subject matter of the poem has two parts, the first of which being the description of the painful experience of the kindergarten days and the second, the adult's attitude to the incident at present when she is no more a child.\n\n The poet seems to be nostalgic about her childhood days. There are certain expressions in the poem that are worth remembering. The poet says that the child buried its face in the hedge and \"smelt the flowers and the pain\". \"Smelt the flowers can be taken as an ordinary expression, but \"smelt the pain\" is something very evocative and expressive. In the first stanza of the poem, the poet describes the pain caused to the child, \"throwing words like pots and pans\". This again is beautiful. The phrase used by the poet to describe the child's teacher, namely, \"blue-frocked woman\" can be justified from the child's point of view. But to the poet who is an adult the use of the phrase looks a little too awkward. On the whole, the poem can be taken as the poet's interest in remembering her childhood days.\n<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1569134118980}]
What would you do if the country you were born in, or the country you\u2019ve lived in for decades, suddenly announced you had to prove your citizenship or else face detention and expulsion? <\/p>
This is the situation nearly 2 million people \u2014 most of them Muslims, some of them Hindus of Bengali origin \u2014 now find themselves in this condition, because their names do not appear on India\u2019s National Register of Citizens (NRC). <\/p>
This citizenship list, published on 31 August 2019, is part of the government\u2019s effort to identify and weed out the illegal immigrants in the northeastern state of Assam. India says many Muslims whose families originally came from neighboring Bangladesh are not rightful citizens, even though they\u2019ve lived in Assam for decades.<\/p>
If a person is living in Assam and his name does not appear on the NRC, the burden of proof is on him to prove that he is a citizen of India. The obvious move would be to dig out his birth certificate or land deed, but many rural residents don\u2019t have paperwork. Even among those who do, many can\u2019t read it; a quarter of the population in Assam state is illiterate. <\/p>
The victims have a chance to appeal to a Foreigners\u2019 Tribunal(a board\/committee that settles the disputes of the people who are claimed to be foreigners in India ), but if the tribunal doesn\u2019t accept their statement of citizenship, they can appeal to the High Court of Assam or even the Supreme Court. But if all that fails, they may be sent to one of the 10 mass detention camps that the government planing to build, complete with boundary walls and watchtowers.<\/p>
Also, there were many errors in the list of NRC. Like, a father\u2019s name being present in the list, but his son\u2019s name is missing. This error just mean that; the father is a native Indian but his son is an immigrant from Bangladesh. What a non-sense! This type of flaws occurred in many areas in the list and it only resulted in the detention of hundreds of poor children.<\/p>
I would conclude that, these kind of huge projects \u2500 which decide the future of thousands of laymen, must be accomplished without any room for negligence that may exploit many native citizens. Only then, our India, a democratic country can be treated as a nation which doesn\u2019t violate the rules of democracy! <\/p>"}]
Let\u2019s start with a stock market definition, shall we? In a nutshell, the stock market is where investors can buy and sell securities, or investments, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and cash equivalents like Treasury securities. Also known as a securities exchange, each market is subject to government regulation and has its own set of rules.\nThe stock market also creates and maintains what are called indexes. A securities market index indicates the performance of the stock market. How it works is that the index measures the average value of a collection of securities.\nSome of the major indexes are the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), the S&P 500 and the NASDAQ. When an index drops, it means the average value of all the stocks in the index is down from the previous business day. Conversely, when an index is on the rise, it means that the average value of all the stocks in the index is up from the prior day.\nThese securities are chosen as a sample that reflects how the market in general is behaving. But because these indexes include companies from a myriad of industries, they are seen as solid indicators how the U.S. economy is doing overall.\n <\/p>","type":"txt","id":1569054914078},{"data":"

I always loved writing about the things I loved or things which were so dear to me. I loved writing about those strong emotions I held in my heart. Sometimes, I also loved writing about the things I hated. One thing that I understood about myself is that I can't write about the things that don't interest or the things I am not connected to, emotionally. I was looking for more, more things to write about, more things to love. And there was this one thing that I loved the most but never considered nor thought of writing about. It was writing itself.

''THE ORIGINALS'' is not about who is real to your face, it's about who stays real behind your back.At some point in our lives, we have all encountered two faced-people. They are generally referred to as \u201cBack-stabbers\". Two-faced people are people who pretend to care about you, people who pretend to be your friend, but inwardly, they are filled with envy, jealousy, and hate towards you. They are deceitful, self-centered and insensitive. Two-faced people are also characterized by insecurity. They are manipulative and have no genuine friends, but possess a chameleon-like ability to fit in with others.One of the best ways to deal with two-faced people is to Not Let Them Affect You.\n\n\u201cIt\u2019s not your job to stop them from talking behind you, but it\u2019s your job not to let them affect you\". We can recognise them easily because Fake people have an image to maintain, but Real people just don\u2019t care.Sometimes it\u2019s not the people who change, it\u2019s the mask that falls off. Everyone\u2019s true colors show eventually.So Be Aware of them. Try not to stress over the shady people who betrayed you. I know it hurts, but the truth is that they were always shady, they\u2019re never going to change, and you\u2019re actually much better off now because at least you know who they really are - \"THE ORIGINALS\".<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1568986929115}]
