I\u2019ve had many indirect teachers in my life. Reading, college, events and public speaking are some of them but if I were to choose one to talk about, it is travelling. It puts one in touch with different people, different cultures, different everything and most of the time, changes a person's perspective on the world entirely. But most of all, it puts one in touch with a different side of themselves as one can have time to introspect.<\/p>
This change in perspective is extremely important for students, as in just a few years, these students head out to face the real world in many ways. Travel is something that also prepares students to take on challenges and handle them. But owing to familial reasons and financial reasons, students don\u2019t travel enough and that is why I am penning this down, in an attempt to bring out the benefits of travelling. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1565006720498","data":"
I have been travelling extensively for work and every single time I travel, I learn something new. One of the major things that travelling taught me is to network with new people as I believe there is a lot one can learn through interactions. Many people that I met in my travels have contributed to my growth as a person and as an entrepreneur in some way or the other and I firmly believe it is something that students really need as it impacts a person\u2019s perspective greatly.<\/p>
While the shift in perspective and knowledge sharing are the obvious benefits of travel, it also teaches students other crucial skills like time management, budgeting and financial planning besides potentially kickstarting the learning of a new language. Travel is also a sure shot way of reiterating to oneself that there is a lot to learn. On the fun side, travel lets you try new cuisines and cultures. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1565006720499","data":"
Attending fests in colleges in other cities is the easiest way for students to travel. This also makes students take up projects that one wouldn\u2019t normally do, as fests and competitions require one to actually do something. Apart from the memorable fun that you'll have with your friends on the trip, interacting with students from all over the place at these fests is another major advantage towards travelling this way. Taking up vlogging or writing about your travels is another plus that travel gives, as it builds your online presence.<\/p>

\"They should feel like home, <\/p>
Warm and known,<\/p>
Where one sometimes has to stand alone,<\/p>
But which always feels own,<\/p>
To the very skin and bone.\"<\/p>
-Sadia [spraypainted_roses (via Instagram)]<\/p>
Today, I would love to write sweet poems on friendships that left their mark like that of milk and honey on your soft lips , but what is a poem if it doesn't make you relate your feelings to its raw blatant words as bittersweet as they can be?<\/p>
Let me start by the dreamy definition of a 'perfect friend' that is long gone down the days in my life that i've been experiencing(but plus point i've been told by wise men and women that it's completely okay). Even a mother can sometimes be standing in a direction opposite to your flow. <\/p>
The thing that i've learnt and want to share with you, is that a true friend is never really the one who stays by your side forever, or who shows you what the world is like or even agrees to whatever you say because that would not be a human at all in the first place!<\/p>
As stated profoundly by Rupi Kaur that \"Representation is vital otherwise the butterfly surrounded by a group of moths, unable to see itself, will keep trying to become the moth\" makes me focus on a great trait of a friend which is to not only be one's window to help see the surroundings but also be a mirror by which he\/she can make him\/her realise what makes him\/her different and help one enhance those qualities.<\/p>
A friend is also the one that sometimes is not by your side and that hurts you, like hell trust me, and that somehow shows you how much you want the person beside you. I wouldn't dare use the word 'need' here because as harsh as it sounds no-one can't live without you, maybe your absence leaves a hole in their heart for a day or a couple of weeks or maybe few months or a maximum of some years and then their heart will finally fill the gap, maybe not with any other person but with something that would give them some kind of hope.<\/p>
Also a friend is someone that states his\/her voice as equally passionately as you make yours heard to them, no matter how opposite this stands with regards to yours, but also has an open mind enough to see your point of view on the topic and be fluctual from their words. And focus on my sentence which shows them fluctual to 'words' and not 'promises'!<\/p>
In many lives, as I've seen the question always comes down to one point as to who stays forever that you wish to think as your friend, but sometimes if you love a flower in a garden, wouldn't watering it from afar be much better than plucking it and keeping it as close to you, indirectly leaving it to wither away?<\/p>
People are most often wrecked by one experience giving it their whole that they refuse to give the deserving one that comes later on even a part of themselves.<\/p>
I swear to God that there were days in my life when people walked away and the land beneath my feet also moved away with them. There were days when the floods of patience would sweep upon my barren heart but the waters refused to seep into it to make it alive and happy again. But as temporal things are, I survived, and today i feel no shame to tell my story to you people no matter the comments which are to come from your way or the image you are gonna create of me in your mind.<\/p>
But with some responsibility over humanity, I beg you, as a well wisher maybe, to be someone's mirror and their reason to smile or even come to college on days that make them feel gloomy, appreciate people around you for the things they do even if it's a tad bit better than what you can do.<\/p>
And lastly, I'd take this opportunity to wish all the names starting from 'a' way down till 'z' in my life that came like seasons and lived with me for unimaginable reasons, right from friends, family till the very foes, and left traces of themselves that had an impact on me both positive and negative that made me who I am today. This includes the one who also gave me false shelter and fake love which maybe I was very much in need of at that point of my life and I hope one day our paths cross again and I'll be able to proudly (without any hatred) tell my kids or friends that these were the ones who made me who I am today and I hope that in this moment, for YOU, I'm enough.<\/p>

Feelings and emotions plays a very important role in everyone's life. We all are emotional at some or the other point in our lives. Being too much emotional can make us feel vulnerable, threatened and defensive. It robs our happy life by hurting us. People who are too emotional are extremely sensitive and find it difficult to accept reality and hurt themselves. This is the reason why too emotional people are often labelled as \"Emotional Fools\".<\/p>
\nToo much of anything is bad. Especially when we let people or a person to control our feelings and modify ourselves the way they want to, will hurt us the most. We intensely feel almost everything like anxiety, anger but we can\u2019t do anything about it because we either love the person too much or we let the situations and circumstances affect us.\nWe need to believe that we are our own master. We need to recognise that we may have people around us who are concerned and would like to help us. But, we have to help ourselves by not getting too emotional.<\/p>
\n\n\n\n\n<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1564934897772","data":"5d4704ae1cc37"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1564934897771","data":"
Emotional people are always curious to know what other people think about them. They try to find some hidden meanings in every little thing. We have to study ourselves and create a balance of everything. Too much of emotions can create loss of every possible kind, like we could be cheated or exploited.<\/p>
Life is a mixture of emotions, imagination and intelligence, we can enjoy our life if we balance everything. We need to try to be emotionally intelligent as it involves not only the ability to look within, but also to be present in the world around us. It will make us stronger and more independent.<\/p>
<\/p>
\"When our emotional health is in a bad state, so is our level of self-esteem. We have to slow down and deal with what is troubling us, so that we can enjoy the simple joy of being happy and at peace with ourselves\"<\/p>

\r\n\r\n\u201cTeam work makes the Dream work\u201d is as right as it is so often said. By definition team is group of individuals\u2019 working together for a goal, task or anything. Teams are formed when a group of people come together to complete a mission or task in unity. Teams are a very efficient way of accomplishing works because even if it\u2019s a team of four to five people, it\u2019s like 5 brains working and when that happens, there comes by many ideas, suggestions to enhance the work making it successful. Not to forget that conflicts and arguments are also a part of a team and is also constructive if it\u2019s about doing the task in the best way possible on the other hand if they don\u2019t then it leads to the downfall of that team. Now let\u2019s see it from the business point of view. There are different kinds of teams such as the marketing team, it team etc... Now here it\u2019s a group of employees working under one department such as the it and sales. Groups develop into teams in four stages. The four stages are: dependency and inclusion, counter dependency and fighting, trust and structure, and work. As each team goes through this process, they become challenging, successful and strong. When people are working together as team it may not be necessary that they are all seated at one conference hall, in fact many teams are separated by cities to even countries. Such teams have huge responsibilities which they fulfill despite the time zone differences. A team\u2019s performance enhanced by rapidly testing and developing methods that work for each team member, despite personality differences, skill sets, and critical thinking skills. Towards the end, as we understand the benefits of teams and their work, a successful team arises with trust and hard work and where a good team if formed when it\u2019 members are rightly chosen and assigned.\r\n<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1564923549926}]
\r\n\r\nAs every student dream of entering a college, it\u2019s just not about earning an undergraduate degree but about experiencing the college life. It involves doing loads of fun when a professor is giving his\/her lecture, skipping classes to enjoy roaming around the college and late-night studies for next day exams, it\u2019s definitely one of the most important experiences of life. My college experience was so far really amazing, though it didn\u2019t involve any bunking of classes as me and my 4 other friends promised on No Bunk Policy throughout the four years and it\u2019s been a year and quarter and we have been adhering to this policy despite all other people telling us that you guys aren\u2019t in college if you aren\u2019t bunking and some people calling us nerds and class toppers while others shrug and sigh, and some people make us think we are still kids scared of skipping classes but we dump aside all that cause we do all that fun in the class itself while the professor is teaching, we start humming to songs and when one of is dosing off we irritate and wake them up because it\u2019s important to listen to what\u2019s being taught and as ironical as it sounds we don\u2019t listen to it but when the professor catches us, we all become dead serious and pay attention. So while we do all of this we don\u2019t find a reason to skip and we get the attendance and we have our fun. Exam time being one of the exhausting periods where we give our blood, sweat and tears to get the perfect result and make our parents proud. College life gives you an experience to deal with different kind of situations, deadlines and in the process of all this we are growing up to be mature people who are ready to tackle any kind of life hurdle that comes our way.\r\n<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1564923777895}]
Ever since I was in school I've heard people talk about how college life was going to be a bed of roses and how I am going to have the time of my life while I live it. Now, being a college student myself, I only partially agree with it. Though not as merry as a bed of roses, it's still done a fair amount of 'good' to me.<\/p>
2 years of college life hasn't been an easy path to walk on. I don't remember being particularly excited about entering into this new phase of my life since I felt I didn't belong here. I was worried that I would have a non-existent social life and an uninterested brain for as long as I was going to be here. <\/p>
The very first semester proved to be an outcast from this negative-thought-spiral. I met some amazing people who I still hold extremely close! This place has taught me to keep a count on my blessings and my lessons- equally. I did well academically and my self-esteem started to greet me better. I started having a positive feeling about coming here.<\/p>
Through the following two semesters, I'd had bad friendships, heated arguments with our faculty, I'd heard terrible news- all followed by mandatory emotional roller coasters; yet this place has managed to mark a significant place in my life. They say it right when they say that life puts you through certain things only so you can learn and rise bright-up, again! I failed at my academics and lazed around all day long. A special mention to the Nescafe coffee outlet at our college that helped me swim through it all with tonnes of black coffee and to the friends who never left my side then.<\/p>
Now, since the last six months, I have been the happiest one can ever be, both academically and emotionally- college playing the major part. This place has taught me that things will always remain impermanent and that I might or might not be happy\/sad all the time. It's never fully black or fully white! In any situation that can arise in the two years left or anytime further in life, I can only rely upon the lesson of 'time' that this place has taught me and cherish the privileges that it's showered me with. <\/p>
To the place that's helped me explore my interests better: with a lot more clarity than I had before coming here, I guess I can now put across my plans and thoughts more articulately and accept the good and the bad- both, in life. <\/p>
College life is indeed more than just a random degree. It could quite literally help you with things like nothing's ever helped you before. <\/p>
ART is freedom. Every artist dips his brush in his soul and paints his own nature. Sachin Jacob Abraham, an artist and a student of M.G.I.T says ,art is a way of life which helps him calm down. He draws when he is happy, he draws when he is sad, he draws whenever things fall apart, in short art is his medium of expression. From sketching since his middle school to taking it up a notch when he was in his Intermediate,he remembers the time he was stuck in a room for thirteen days after he caught Chicken Pox, and it was then he figured out that ART is always going to be there and started self-training in different forms of art. There is something very interesting about Sachin. He is colour blind to Red and Green,unless the colours are bright enough,he can't differentiate them. Sachin is also an active member of Art Club M.G.I.T which is synonymous to creativity. As an artist he has participated in different competitions and is also being wonderful in his academics<\/p>
Art comforts him and the time just flows when he is with a piece of paper and few colours . He says ,take a step back away from the chaotic world, sketch and work things out!ART according to him is something you do and go with the flow.Every mistake is a new creation!<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1564898831172","data":"5d46b3992fc0f"}]

In a time when social media is mostly filled with hate and unsolicited opinions, musicians filling it with their soul-stirring renditions of our favorite songs make scrolling through social media a treat. In fact, many are even getting opportunities through their actions on social media and one such musician is Gautam Raj, a Hyderabad based violinist. An engineering graduate and a banker by profession, Gautam has been posting videos on Facebook for two years now and his skill was noticed and he played in films like RX 100, Sita on The Road in addition to working in the entire background score of an upcoming film - Seven.<\/p>
For him, his vocalist father was the first inspiration and having grown up surrounded by music, he picked up the violin when he was 15, as he says, \u201cI wanted to learn music and seeing my father and a cousin of mine who is a pianist, I wanted to learn piano but when I realised there\u2019s only a violin school near my place, I started learning that.\u201d <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1564839750036","data":"
Under the tutelage of the eminent violinist Ashok Gurujale, he spent the the next few years balancing studies with consistent violin practice. \u201cI started learning carnatic music in 2005 and I spent the next five years practising for a minimum of four hours a day. I spent so much time with my guru that there\u2019s a lot of his style in my playing. Meanwhile I finished my B.Tech and did MBA. All throughout, there was constant jamming or practice, in various different forms of music\u201d explains the violinist who also performed for many short films.<\/p>
This constant jamming is what got him interested in fusion, something that is seen in all of the videos made by his band Nakshatra. \u201cI wanted to make a lot of fusion music, replacing the vocals with my violin, backed up by guitars and percussions. I experimented with a lot of bands but it didn\u2019t sync. Last year, a bunch of musicians from the city did a musical flash mob at a mall and that was when I met Akshay Beri and Aveek Barman. Then we decided to form Nakshatra,\u201d explains Gautam, adding, \u201cWe started jamming together and a few months later, in March this year, we won the Battle of Bands contest conducted by a radio channel here.\u201d In addition to this, the band has also performed over 400 shows in the last two years.<\/p>"},{"type":"youtube","id":"vid-url-1564839750039","data":"PGH6yXj_SiE"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1564839750037","data":"
Gautam, whose cover of Inkem Inkem Kavale got more than a lakh views on YouTube, says he didn\u2019t expect opportunities through Facebook. \u201cI love playing by-the-ear, as in I just listen to the song a few times and play it without looking up the notes or anything. I used to post violin covers of my favorite songs, recorded in my room but thankfully, they got noticed by the right people and I even got an opportunity to play at a TEDx event,\u201d he says. He is now waiting for the release of a couple of more films that he worked on. <\/p>
His message to students who are interested in music is simple. \u201cConsistent practice with discipline is crucial, so is experimenting with different genres like Hindustani, Western, etc. Try to make your own compositions,\u201d is what Gautam says to students. <\/p>"}]
Music, like the other fine arts, is what feeds the soul and touches the body, moving it. Fondness in music creates memories that only a person who plays could understand. And, anyone who has \"been acquainted with the night\" as Robert Frost put it, knows and can relate to the Blues. Francis Leo Jesvyn's music journey started with the guitar. His immense efforts and a will to learn resulted in a gain of two Trinity certificates which was his greatest achievement at a very young age. \n<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1564828771047},{"data":"
His first stage performance was in a wedding. This called out for more and more performances and finally then he entered into competitions in the church.
