LISTEN TO THE ENGLISH TEACHER...

Hi Everyone! I have written a poem on something I really beleive in...though let me warn you that the poem itself is not that good. But still, I would always appreciate your views on it!

Listen to the English teacher,
reflect on what she says!
Each word of hers, worth its weight in gold,
each thought of hers, can enlighten your soul!

Embark upon a journey,
across the seven seas,
when she begins to read out,
those beautiful stories!

Flow with her serenely,
on the boat of emotions.
When she reads aloud her poetry,
get drowned in its lyrical ocean.

Enlighten yourself as she narrates,
the beautiful experiences of life!
For there is abundant wisdom in her words,
that can sustain you till the moment you die.

No history teacher can explain the mind of an emperor;
no science teacher can applaud the work of God’s Hand.
If there is one person who can do it,
it’s only the English teacher who can!

Again I say,
Listen to the English teacher,
reflect on what she says,
She unites you with the Universe,
And this is definitely no child’s play!

'BUY'OLOGY

It is said that a smart investment never goes waste. Keeping that in mind, I feel that schools should make some smart consumer choices and purchase a few things that’ll never go waste (assuming the current circumstances persist in the future too!)

1.)    In house GPS: I remember having to submit a Science notebook before the 5^th Period to a teacher. But by the time I found her (and that too in the music room) I had already crossed the deadline (and lost a lot of weight having searched around the school) Thus, she refused to accept my book.  A GPS will surely help solve this problem.

2.)    Sound Proof Walls: We seniors are always disturbed during times of our ‘serious’ studies by the junior classes ‘din. Ok, just joking, we too make an equal amount of noise (if not more.) In such a case, sound proof walls will be heaven for both us and the teachers!

3.)    Canvasses- There seems to be an enormous amount of urge amongst students to express their talent of visual artistry...on desks, behind notebooks, computer screensvers and so on. Having a canvas will surely provide the satisfactory medium for all this (hopefully!)

     4.)  Ultra Safe Security Vaults- This is a VERY important device needed to protect the most sacred item of school life...lunchboxes!!! And sadly enough, it is one’s friends who rob them of their lunchboxes...and the delicacies in them

Neo Studentism- An Open Letter

Hi Blogmates...long time no see! i have finally got the authority to publish my Open Letter....uncensored version! Hope you like it, and do comment if you agree!

OPEN LETTER TO A TEACHER….

Dear Teacher,

Gone are the days when both of us would sit under a banyan tree wearing bark clothes and I would have to obey each and every command of yours. If you would ask me to go and fetch a fallen bead from a 40-feet deep well, I would have to do so, no matter what. If you would ask me to walk 20 miles and pluck a flower, I would have to, no excuses. If you would ask me to cut my thumb and give it to you, I would do so without thinking twice. ALAS! Not anymore.

For I have changed! And that too a great deal. I would rather push you into the well, drag you through 20 miles and slit your throat itself. Ok, just joking. I won’t. But the point is that, gone are the days of the old “Guru Shishya Pratha.” And if you expect us to behave similarly, we won’t. Today, we can look you I the eye and answer you back if you ask something unjustified or unsound. For we aren’t gullible, unquestioning and susceptible as we were before. Why? I don’t know…maybe our new generation of (Apple)s and (Blackberry)s is 2 steps ahead of their predecessors. Whatsoever the reason may be, we aren’t as naïve and vulnerable as before!

Don’t get me wrong. We aren’t adamant or arrogant or ill-mannered. We absolutely love, admire and look up to our teachers…. but only if they earn our respect. And this respect is earned not by dumping extraneous work, mocking one of us in front of others or by highlighting our inabilities to not do something. It is infact earned by casually interacting with each of us throughout the term, giving extraneous work (but explaining why it actually has to be done, how will it help us etc.) and constructively teaching us how to do the stuff we are not actually able to do. And then you watch how each one of us admires you. Even if you are the worst in this Universe (which you are surely not since you’re still reading this letter), your students will simply love you. After all, it is You who are going to instill some wisdom into us, essential for our survival in this world.

Who am I to say all this? Well just another student! Every other student will want to tell you this (or perhaps, something even better than this in a better manner.) Sure some of us are simply hamburger chomping, soda gulping, video game addicted couch potatoes. We get into all sorts of troubles and don’t know about the innumerable trials and tribulations of this journey called life, which most of you have largely experienced. But at the same time, some of us are the very same people who spearheaded numerous protests world over. When time came, we did leave our hamburgers, sodas and video games for larger reasons.

Sincerely hoping to have not offended you by any means, I end my letter here. Hoping to see a new you soon.

From
The New Student
