Truth about my Science paper

School reopened last Friday. I received all my marks that day. My performance is not bad, but not satisfactory either. My worst performance is in science, which I've scored just 86%. It is time I open up on the reason behind this deterioration.

First of all things, I wasn't prepared a hundred percent. I was still studying on the day before my exam, and I had a doubt over my preparation. Last minute preparation had never helped me, so I avoided that almost every time, but this time, it was unavoidable. Secondly, at my own risk, I wasn't expecting the paper to be so tough. Usually the paper would be a piece of cake and I would head out of the room triumphantly, but this time, I was glad that it was over. I had never hated exam time till that day, and that was because of my own procrastination. And lastly, I wrote most of the answers on the basis of assumption theory and forgot to prove it! I was able to assume the answers because I didn't miss the classes, but I couldn't conclude them. So, I didn't lose the marks as a bunch, it was half here, and a one there.

My dip this time has taught me a good lesson. Never Procrastinate. Never! Although I have secured the second position in class, I think I could've done better if I had done a little better. The main difference between 8th and 9th is that you can't rectify your mistake of procrastination. So, wind up your procrastination once you get over the middle school!

Dude - Review

TL;DR - A Rare mainstream surprise with its heart in the right place. To begin with, I didn't expect any movie to make it to my blog this year, especially Dude. I was skeptical even while booking the tickets, and the pessimism only grew when a couple of close friends said they didn’t like it. For context: I didn’t enjoy Love Today , and Dragon was just okay. But if skepticism can ever lead to a pleasant surprise, Dude definitely proves it. I usually look for one out of two things from a film - a compelling narrative or solid entertainment. I don’t comment much on Tamil films because Tamil cinema, at least from what I have sampled, often misses both and at its worst, treats the female lead as an interchangeable prop, contributing no real agency to the story. It has been a long while since a mainstream entertainer offered a female character with intention, dimension, and presence. Dude does, and that alone deserves acknowledgement. PR struck like a typical Gen-Z actor in his first...

Recap 2025

    2025 was a year of trials, tribulations and triumphs. A mixtape of emotions. A year where either conditional probability did not apply to my life or there were more variables in play. It was a year of shedding: both light and deadweight. The year quietly announced itself towards the end of 2024, when I had a wonderful exploration of the Ripon Building and its surroundings. It quietly set the tone for the new year – wandering, observing and letting curiosity take the lead. The first two months were mildly eventful. I was selected to be the head of Registration Committee for Vibrance. I enjoyed the hustle – the checklist, the controlled chaos and the celebrations. I was simultaneously handling my submission for the semi-finals of the Google Girls’ Hackathon, and I’m grateful to my committee and my parents for being supportive. I had an instrumental phase, and I remember blasting the Imperial March in the middle of the night while working. It turned out to be much better ...

The beauty of antithesis

It is human to crave order Inhuman to resist the antithesis. One steadies the room The other wakes your doom It is all around us, omnipresent. Dare I say, nay, I declare. In nature, in physics In perfect relationships In the blank space of art Or the black text in a white part Youth teaches you to embrace it Experience forces enjoyment Conservatives, resistance. Yet Immortal, its existence.
