Adios Amigos!

The demise of the former PM of Nepal, Girija PrasadKoirala, has led Nepali politics into uncertainties. Ourcountry has lost a great leader. The effect of this loss canbe felt all around the country, the education sector notbeing an exception. However, amidst all these uncertainties,young minds always level to follow the path of theirdevelopment. In this evolving process, when young peopleare in a way, to explore their potentialities, even a slightinitiative by the people around them, provides a platformfor making them perfect.

If I were to say that the issues of Wavelength have beenproviding a base for the students to shape up their minds,

From the Editor

Nilisha Pokhrel, Level A2

I would not be wrong. In this competitive era, puttingforward one's interpretation regarding books, movies andanalyzing current issues, helps to boost one’s self esteemand develop confidence.

This probably, being the last edition in which I am working,I must say that throughout my work tenure, I learned a lotfrom my fellow members and my mistakes. Handing overmy responsibilities to the next batch, I am certain that theywill carry it with full dedication and determination. Lastly, Iwould like to thank my entire team for coordinating with meand working whole heartedly in making this issue a hugesuccess.

from the Principal/ Founder Director

To be educated is to be aware. Aware of oneself, one’s realizations, and one’s potential. Suchawareness is only possible if we are informed of our environment, of how we are embedded inour social context. This aware person will manifest into a balanced human being, who iscourageous and committed in spirit, curious and critical in thought and creative and caring inaction. This represents the goal of good education.

What happens in our classroom today will happen in a larger society tomorrow. So far as I amconcerned, Chelsea International Academy has been able to cater the need of global system ofeducation in local context. We are trying to discourage rote based learning. We believe that thereshould be sufficient space for interpretation and analysis in teaching and learning. Effort has

been made to focus on understanding rather than memorizing. We understand that the relation of learning to real life is quiteimportant, instead of learning taking place in watertight compartments. Learning should be based on real knowledge. We aretrying to avoid mechanical learning. A shift from facts to skill is a must in today’s world. Truly understanding the conceptshould be encouraged. Language should be learnt more as something integral and useful and less as a subject for a test. Thewhole learning must be much more interactive, collaborative and experiential.

I would like to thank and congratulate the editorial team of the Chelsea Wavelength for the second issue and wish them allthe best for the future.

The skyrocketing hardship in Nepali Politics will probablybecome more complex after the demise of a great leader,Girija Prasad Koirala (1925 – 2010).The country and the internationalcommunity was shocked and grieved tohear about his demise. The nation haslost a great warrior who fought forfreedom and democracy till his lastbreath. He dedicated his whole life forthe betterment of our nation andimprovising democracy in Nepal. Infact,he was the iron man, who never createddifference between his speech anddeeds. Whenever there were conflicts inNepali politics, he was the one to openthe way of consensus and gave ourcountry the right path. He led our nationmost of the times in difficult situations. Hewas dedicated, bold, adventurous andfearless.

Girija Babu holds a significantimportance in Nepalese history. He wasa part of all the big changes in Nepal for seven decades.His political life started with Mazdoor Andolan (LabourMovement) from where he started fighting for freedom.He never turned back in his long political career. Heoften said: “I have a habit of only looking ahead, notbehind.” He led a historic transformation in Nepal with

What is the best thing about Chelsea for YOU?


He is standing on the terrace of his apartmentoverlooking the glittering avenues of Kathmandu. Hetries to analyze the problem in his mind. He concludesthat it is wrong. At the same time he fails to convincehimself that the blame lies within him. He enters into astate of moral dilemma and turbulent thoughts cripplehis mental balance. He looks down the building… Thetemptation is irresistible but he asks himself, “Is this theright thing to do?”

When he was born, he was completely devoid ofknowledge or understanding. From the day he steppedinto this world, he has done whatever his parents and hissurroundings have taught him. Yet, when he, as ateenager, steps out of his house, he is held responsiblefor disregarding culture and tradition.

He was not born with thoughts of fashion and junk foodembedded in his mind; he only came to know aboutthem when he was exposed to the world. If today hespeaks English and Hindi, it is because he was alwaystaught these languages. If today he respects guests andelders, it is only because his parents taught him thesevirtues. Similarly if today he is westernized, he can onlyhold his parents responsible.

When he tried to be honest to himself, he was stoppedand subtly impelled to become a hypocrite. Looking athis parents infused him with a sense of fashion; hisfantasies now included a Calvin Klein perfume and apair of Armani shades rather than fairy tales likeCinderella and Pinocchio. Whenever he went out withhis parents, he heard his mother boasting of her newaccessories to her friends and the places she sent him toso that he could become smarter than any other kid inher circle of friends.

He grew up and entered his teens but parentalexpectations went beyond his control. His parents had

decided his future without even asking him. He lovedjournalism and tennis but his parents wanted him to be adoctor. He was only in class 10 when he found himselfgoing to eight different tuitions. He was sent to computerand salsa dancing classes, perhaps because his motherneeded something to boast about at her parties. On theother hand whenever he expressed a desire to tryjournalism and tennis, the thought was treated withcontempt.

However, one day, in the middle of a shopping spree,he came across a book called ‘Who Will Cry WhenYou Die?’ and somehow was drawn to read it. Afterreading the book, his life changed forever. He finallyunderstood the futility of fashion and realized thehypocrisy involved in his life. He thinks about it all thetime, thinks about it and nothing else. Deepcontemplation about his life distracts him from hisstudies and one evening he returns home with markslower than his mother’s so called best friend’s son. Hismother is furious but he avoids her and goes to theterrace. He walks up to the edge of the terrace andpauses to think. He has overcome the dilemma and theturbulent thoughts are now at rest. He understands thestupefying gulf between his parents’ ideals and selfcontentment. He knows that he will not be able toachieve it in this life. He answers the question he hadearlier asked, “Yes, it is…”

After some time, down on the street, people gatheraround a body, body of a teenager who jumped off abuilding.

This is what happens, my friends. Let me tell you that thisis not an individual case. It epitomizes the condition ofthe youth today. Please let us be ourselves and allow usto be simple. Please keep us away from the ugly worldof fashion and pubs. Please don’t put us at theconvergence of the blame game everytime. Please giveus a chance!

STUDENT'S ARTICLE

Before we start making the youth a scapegoat for everything immoral going around, let us look at ourselves

and ask whether we are giving teenagers enough liberty to do what they actually want to. Are we giving

them enough freedom to discover themselves or are we just burdening them with selfish ambition? Here is

a story of one of those nameless teenagers who is a victim of parental pressure.


To,Elizabeth Hazarika,

New Settlement Area,

Digboi, Assam

India

There were times when I loved you the most. Then you told me that you wanted to separate from me. I agreed, as nothing was, and still isn't, more

important to me than your happiness. I made the sacrifice of my love as you wanted it. Thereafter, you demanded me to help you fix your relationship with

your boyfriend. I did it as well. I never told you how much he abused me when I spoke to him regarding your misunderstandings. Then again, when your

almost dead love revived, you told me to help you break up with the guy. I helped you out in that as well. When you asked me to help you deepen your

relationship with my best friend Palash, didn't I do that? It's because I never demanded anything out of my love for you. But now you want me to

attend your marriage ceremony with Palash! How can I do that? I can't see my love being someone else's forever. Instead, I will be praying for you

that whole day at a church, yeah......the same church where we used to hang out together, for hours.

Do you remember those days that we spent in each other's thoughts? You used to tell me to gaze at the moon whenever your thoughts lingered over my

mind and every morning I told you of having stared at the moon the whole night, through the window beside my bed. But I want to apologize today for

having lied to you. The moon isn't visible from my bedroom window . I'm sorry for all those lies that I told you regarding my dad’s wealth. He isn't

actually a millionaire but a simple private lawyer earning in thousands every month. We do not have a big bungalow or well furnished rooms. It was all a

lie. I'm sorry!

I do remember the day you were under your umbrella, protecting yourself from the monsoon rain. Your blue attire matching with the color of the

umbrella, for blue is your favorite color. You never looked that pretty before and even never thereafter. That strand of your hair which lay upon your left

cheek still appears to me in my dreams. Those letters that you wrote with writings so fine, still manage to find a place in my study's drawer. Ah those

days! They seem to be just like yesterday....don't they? Don't you remember them anymore, or is it that you don't want to recall any of them?

I always believed that it is the greatest feeling to be in love. I lived to love you and wanted to live with you, forever. I had never cared about our

religions being different, but you did, didn't you? Maybe that was the reason you chose to marry someone belonging to your own religion. But all these facts

do not provide me with enough bases to not love you anymore. Besides the fact that I still love you, I also want you to know that I shall always be there

in search of happiness for you. I had heard people saying that true love somehow craves its way out towards its destination. They were wrong.....or maybe

our destination was to get separated. Or is it that ours wasn't a true love?

I believed that love is a divine feeling that, once felt, gives immense pleasure and enables a person to love anyone and everyone around. But why do I,

then feel that the way I love you, I won't be able to love anyone anymore? I think I'm completely lost within my own thoughts emerging out from which

seems to be more than impossible. After all, as it is rightly said,’....a man's own thoughts are to him the greatest source of annoyance and irritation.....’

can you help me out? But you can't do anything either..

I think I should be forgetting you now and all these memoirs of yours, for they are nothing more than a burden upon me. Even the tears have left my side

now. I can't love anyone else, for my first and last love is you. Nevertheless, it's a fact that you are getting married to someone else, which I cannot

falsify. But I want to know for the sake of my love, for the last time, did you never ever have any feelings for me in your heart? Did you never love me?

Isn't there any way left for me to re-enter into your life?I feel that I know the answers, but still I could not stop asking you. But don't you worry, for

I promise not to interfere in your life ever after, because you are my first and last love.

Yours Forever,

Sudan Bohara

After concluding the letter, the pen falls off his fingers,leaving them senseless. His eyes remained opened. He hadawoken into a life after death. He could now see a lifelessbody, within which he had dwelled for the last twenty-oneyears. A peaceful smile lit up his divine lips. He thought“how silly was I to die for a girl who never cared for me.Rather than choosing death, I could have lived to come upto the expectations of my parents.”

He looked at the bottle of poison beside his left hand and

continued thinking, “Why do men create things that can killthemselves? Man is such a fool that he tends to cut thebranch of a tree in which he himself is seated, knowing thefact that he would fall, but unknown of the pain afterfalling. For those who have lost someone very close tothem I think, the one who was the closest to them issomehow still there.....within them”.

Then he looked at the letter and continued smiling. All of asudden he dissolved into the atmosphere, only to returnnever again.

Problems, difficulties and sorrows everywhereConflicts, misconcepts and misunderstandings everywhereHurry, worry and sorry had grabbed meRivalry, hostility and disputes had destroyed me.

I was fed up with all these evil deedsFlaws, mistakes that I had committedI was anxious and had grave consequenceI was totally lost in the world of uncertainty.

Full of tensions in mind, I was sitting in a gardenJust trying to root out the cause of my problemAbruptly, I happened to concentrate on a blooming roseThat gave me a lesson of life which changed my pace.

The charm of flowers, the freshness of windThe greenery of grasses, the purity of leavesI realized the importance of beautyThe beauty of attraction, the beauty of sightThe beauty of nature, the beauty of life.

Winter, autumn, summer we packMany seasons after dashain is backNo rain, no dirt even there is no sunKites and swing risen up to give us fun.

New clothes, new shoes make children happyThey are set free and get bit naughtyFather, mother let's visit the villageGrandpa and ma are alone in old age.

Tika- Jamara they put on my headGrandma told me always to leadLive a long life with happy and joyGoddess Durga comes home to fly.

Fruits and meat make stomach packDashain is finished; let’s go backMy school is about to startFriends and teachers are happy from heart.

Do me a favour;Go away!Because all you can do ishurt me.Go away!I’ve cried enough for youHurt myself enough foryouI tried to bring you backNow I know what I lackIt was wrong for me to seeThe dream of you and meBecause it was nevermeant to beI gave you all my trustBut you made me wait tillI rustAway from my heartAway from my dreamsHaunt me no moreFor now I had enoughI have no hopesTired of your ‘nopes’Take with youAll your memoriesI don’t want themanymoreI don’t want you anymoreGo away!

I have decided

To do something

My plan may be grand

Or just can barely stand

I may help the planet

Or just one person on it

I may be a success

Or learn from my mess

But I have decided

To do something.

I have decided

To do something

I may run with the

breeze

Or crawl on my knees

I may be applauded

Or go unrewarded

I’ll do all that it takes

And I’ll make mistakes

But I have decided

To do something.

Alas, my dear friendThe curtains pushed asideMy sleepy eyes awakenTo greet the harsh morning light.

What’s there


People are constantly guided by others from time totime, whether they want it or not. One encounter orthe other with people and the advice comes for free! Ihave always been told what to do or what not to doand it has always been easy to let go of allthat’s been said or done. What has confusedme the most is when there’s no justificationand such a situation has caused adverseeffects depending upon my mood.

If perspectives match, then the jigsaw puzzleis solved, if not, just let it go, others end upfeeling frustrated. They say, “Life is a bed ofroses” yet “every rose has thorns”; “everycloud has silver lining” yet “even heaven hasrainy days”; “far from sight far from mind”yet “distance makes the heart grow fonder”. Similarly,it’s been said “first you deserve and you desire”. It’s

I always felt the power of the word 'transformation’.Transforming what we view as failed experiences intovaluable fodder for our future success is important. Naturally,it is never pleasant to experience failure, but that does notmake it a bad thing. As hard as it may seem to believe, thereare benefits to experiencing failure. Personal coaches and toppsychologists both agree that we can learn valuable lessonsfrom these experiences.

In my personal life, I have always tried to strive to look at lifesituations from different angles, by finding opportunities andlearning lessons when things do not work out as planned.One example that comes to mind is of my close friend who Istill remember. Her hope was to become a fantasy writer, butthat dream was compromised when every agent andpublishing house that she contacted rejected her first write-up. When I first met her, she was in a frustrated and dejectedplace and wanted to know what her astrological chartrevealed about her professional life. As we both were verymuch interested in Zodiac signs, we discussed together and Iconsoled her to keep on trying and to also explore other waysto utilize her writing talents.

But she decided she needed to take a break so she beganvolunteering at a local children’s hospital. She became astoryteller and made up all kinds of fantastic adventure

stories to entertain the patients in the children’s ward. Shewas well received as a storyteller and soon she started writingher stories down to share at other local hospitals.

I bet you can guess the rest. She became a very fulfilled andsuccessful children’s author and is now very happy that she“failed” at writing fantasy novels. She is currently in the“Indian Book Trust” and encourages young people tovolunteer in every little way they can. Her story is a proof thatnot only can failed experiences encourage us to be moreflexible and determined, but they can also point us in theperfect direction.

I hope her transformation will remain with you all, so that thenext time you feel yourself struggling with the idea of“failure”, you will think differently about it. When you openyourself up to the gifts the universe brings, you can findamazing opportunities.

Please give this message some thought and give yourself apat on the back for moving along the path to success andkeep on moving until you get it right.

Don’t be afraid, think of good things you possess, whichother people in your surrounding do not.

good to realize one’s own potential and reach for itaccordingly. If you are good at it, it surfaces up anddreams can be achieved. However, it’s not always thecase. Mostly, things don’t turn up the way, you want it

to be: so what do you do? “Try try until yousucceed”? or adopt the fox’s “grapes aresour” attitude and let go?

That’s what life has in store for you. If thereis a day, there is night too. The dawn marksnew beginning and leads you to light,sunshine and happiness. Dusk on the otherhand, marks the end of chapters and leadsyou to darkness, silence and sadness. Thejourney is at ease if you accept events asthey enter and leave, appreciated goodness

and capture positive vibrations and let go the sadnessreleasing negativity.

MOMENTS AT CHELSEA


"Today's wonderful moments are tomorrow's beautiful memories"

Dear A2 brothers and sisters,

We are really sad to say goodbye to youbut it is something one cannot avoid in thisworld. Meeting and departing are theregular facets of our lives. So, it isnecessary to have the power to face goodbye!

We had an awesome time with you. Youwere inspirations to us in every field. We learnt to live acollege life from you. From the academics to extra activities,you motivated all of us. You were the assets of our college!

Goodbyes are not forever.

Goodbyes are not the end.

They simply mean I’ll miss you

Until we meet again!

May the road rise up to meet you, May the wind be ever at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of hishand.

Whether I be far or near, may I hear onlygood news of you.

A sunbeam to warm you,A moonbeam to charm you,A sheltering angel, so nothing can harm you.

May you have warm words on a cool evening, a full moonon a dark night, and the road downhill all the way to yourdoor.

May your pockets be heavy and your heart be light,May good luck pursue you each morning and night.

Adieu A2

STUDENT'S ARTICLE


Q. Why did you come to Nepal and how did you manageto join Chelsea?

A. I had never been in Asia before but I knew this agency,Ideal Friendship Nepal. I E-mailed them and got thechance to come to Nepal as a teacher. I came to Chelseaas a substitute for Aingeru.

Q. What are your likes and dislikes about Chelsea? Pleasefeel free to comment on anything good or bad.

A. I like staying here at Chelsea very much. Mostly, I likethe students and the coworkers I have. Personally, I used tohate it when the students ‘bunked’ my classes.

Q. Tell us about your experience as a teacher here atChelsea.

A. It’s nice to work in the Pre-primary section. Children aresweet and teachers work as a real team, which helps a lot.About General Paper, it’s asubject I enjoyed teachingthe most, because it is aboutthinking. I always repeatedto my students: “Be original,be creative!” It’s a beautifuljob, and hard, especiallybecause the students don’talways do their homework![laughs]

Q. How did you find Nepaland Nepali people?

A. I love the hospitality offered by Nepali people! Peopleare really nice and friendly. Now, after staying here formonths, I have a clearer opinion about issues like genderequality.

Q. If you were to leave your native country forever to stayhere in Nepal, what would you do? Be very honest.

A. [Hesitates] hmmm….... This is a committed question. Iwill be very honest: I wouldn’t live in Nepal forever. I mayalso add that I would not live in any country but mine. It’snot that I don’t like Nepal, it’s just that I love my country somuch; not because I think it’s better, but only because it’sthe place I belong. For certain reasons, I am deeplyconnected to the land where I was born – the CatalanCountries, a nation without state, which now belongs toSpain. I have strong feelings toward my culture, languageand community. I have plans for future to work for mycountry because of which, I would like to live there. I enjoy

traveling, but I will always come back home.

Q. Tell us something interesting that your students inChelsea don’t know.

A. My passion is singing and I was a member of a musicalband for many years. We recorded two albums. I also playthe violin. I guess my students would request me to playand sing if I told them, so I kept it a secret…. (laughs)

Q. Your future plans afteryou leave Nepal?

A. I am not planning tosettle down, get married,have kids, and run atraditional, conventionallife. I want to do somethingdifferent. I recently got a joboffer as a Spanish teacherin a school in the UK.However, I feel likespending some more time

in the island. I have a research to finish (precisely aboutgender equality), after which I have to find some sponsorswho can help me to execute my project – a program toavoid sexual discrimination and assure gender equality inschools. Alongside that, I will have to find a job to getsome income while working on my project. Furthermore, Iwould also like to be with my family and friends for a whilebefore traveling again.

Q. What did you learn from Nepal that could be useful foryou in future?

A. New places, people, different language and culture.The most important thing is that you learn about yourself.Travelling is the best school.

I wish the students at Chelsea International remember me,even after I leave……J

STUDENT'S ARTICLE


I went to a big Washington dinner last week. You know thekind: Large hall; black ties; long dresses. But this was noordinary dinner. There were 40 guests of honor. So here’smy Sunday news quiz: I’ll give you the names of most ofthe honorees, and you tell me what dinner I was at. Ready?

Linda Zhou, Alice Wei Zhao, Lori Ying, Angela Yu-YunYeung, Lynnelle Lin Ye, Kevin Young Xu, Benjamin ChangSun, Jane Yoonhae Suh, Katheryn Cheng Shi, SunandaSharma, Sarine Gayaneh Shahmirian, Arjun RanganathPuranik, Raman Venkat Nelakant, Akhil Mathew, PaulMasih Das, David Chienyun Liu, Elisa Bisi Lin, Yifan Li,Lanair Amaad Lett, Ruoyi Jiang, Otana Agape Jakpor, PeterDanming Hu, Yale Wang Fan, Yuval Yaacov Calev, LeventAlpoge, John Vincenzo Capodilupo and Namrata Anand.

No, sorry, it was not a dinner of the China-India FriendshipLeague. Give up?

O.K. All these kids are American high school students.They were the majority of the 40 finalists in the 2010 IntelScience Talent Search, which, through a national contest,identifies and honors the top math and science high schoolstudents in America, based on their solutions to scientificproblems. The awards dinner was Tuesday, and, as youcan see from the above list, most finalists hailed fromimmigrant families, largely from Asia.

Indeed, if you need any more convincing about the virtuesof immigration, just come to the Intel science finals. I am apro-immigration fanatic. I think keeping a constant flow oflegal immigrants into our country — whether they wearblue collars or lab coats — is the key to keeping us aheadof China. Because when you mix all of these energetic,high-aspiring people with a democratic system and freemarkets, magic happens. If we hope to keep that magic,we need immigration reform that guarantees that we willalways attract and retain, in an orderly fashion, the world’sfirst-round aspirational and intellectual draft choices.

This isn’t complicated. In today’s wired world, the mostimportant economic competition is no longer betweencountries or companies. The most important economiccompetition is actually between you and your ownimagination. Because what your kids imagine, they cannow act on farther, faster, and cheaper than ever before —as individuals. Today, just about everything is becoming acommodity, except imagination, except the ability to sparknew ideas.

If I just have the spark of an idea now, I can get a designerin Taiwan to design it. I can get a factory in China to

produce a prototype. I can get a factory in Vietnam tomass manufacture it. I can use Amazon.com to handlefulfillment. I can use freelancer.com to find someone todo my logo and manage my backroom. And I can do allthis at incredibly low prices. The one thing that is not acommodity and never will be is that spark of an idea. Andthis Intel dinner was all about our best sparklers.

Before the dinner started, each contestant stood by astoryboard explaining their specific project. NamrataAnand, a 17-year-old from the Harker School inCalifornia, patiently explained to me her research, whichused spectral analysis and other data to exposeinformation about the chemical enrichment history of“Andromeda Galaxy.” I did not understand a word shesaid, but I sure caught the gleam in her eye.

My favorite chat, though, was with Amanda Alonzo, a 30-year-old biology teacher at Lynbrook High School in SanJose, Calif. She had taught two of the finalists. When Iasked her the secret, she said it was the resources providedby her school, extremely “supportive parents” and a grantfrom Intel that let her spend part of each day inspiring andpreparing students to enter this contest. Then she told methis: Local San Jose realtors are running ads in newspapersin China and India telling potential immigrants to “buy ahome” in her Lynbrook school district because it produced“two Intel science winners.”

Seriously, ESPN or MTV should broadcast the Intel finalslive. All of the 40 finalists are introduced, with little storiesabout their lives and aspirations. Then the winners of thenine best projects are announced. And finally, with greatdrama, the overall winner of the $100,000 award for thebest project of the 40 is identified. This year it was ErikaAlden DeBenedictis of New Mexico for developing asoftware navigation system that would enable spacecraft tomore efficiently "travel through the solar system." After hername was called, she was swarmed by her fellowcompetitor-geeks.

Gotta say, it was the most inspiring evening I’ve had inD.C. in 20 years. It left me thinking, “If we can just get afew things right — immigration, education standards,bandwidth, fiscal policy — maybe we’ll be O.K.” It left mefeeling that maybe Alice Wei Zhao of North High School inSheboygan, Wis., chosen by her fellow finalists to be theirspokeswoman, was right when she told the audience:“Don’t sweat about the problems our generation will haveto deal with. Believe me; our future is in good hands.”

As long as we don’t shut our doors.

Will was trying to teach his son the evils of alcohol.He put a worm in a glass of water and another in a glassof whiskey. The worm in the water lived while the one in thewhiskey curled up and died. "All right, son," said Will,"what does that show you?" "Well dad, it shows that ifyou drink alcohol you will not have worms."

He does not know the reason behind his presence onEarth. Many endeavor’s were made but his thirst to‘know thyself’ as Socrates put it, has never beenquenched. He is compelled to live the mundane life in away many people are living, where a person is more likea robot, with vacuum inside. He is compelled to adapt inthe society where his prolific insights are sabotaged bythe age – old religious traditions. Above all, he iscompelled to be the slave of money because these withlittle or no affluence are annihilated from the so-called‘category of people’.

Is he an invitation and a necessity to this planet or just anaccident when two people were having a romance, waswhat he asked himself. However, his soul was alwaysconfused. He too inquired to himself if he was just a smallbeing in a multitude of billions or was with intrinsictreasures such as potentiality to rescue those who aresubmerged in ocean of suffering. Many more like this, heused to raise, during every sunrise, against himself buteventually end up being numb and crying the tears ofrequest to the sky to fulfill his appetite.

Life goes ahead even when we are motionless as someonesaid it more lucidly; time and tide wait for no man. He fellin love with a girl at the first sight, who was three yearselder, because as they say ‘first sight love saves times’. Shecame like a flash and went away like a lightening. Despite

her sojourns, she glittered his miserable life with bliss. Withher, he was exuberant as Dante was with Beatrice. Since thesituation forced him to abandon her, they would walk theopposite way. This incident further broke his heart becauseshe was like an angel and was his most loved person.

He feels her absence in his life. From people who he couldnever mingle with, he only received frustrations andphantoms like ‘life is meaningless’. As he could notpurchase the happiness and people were overmerchandising, he became almost a lonely person in theworld. It seemed as if God was prejudice against himbecause he could not make things happen his way.

He wants to fly across this spacious sky to reach the Godand the great people who visited this planet. He wants torest his head over to the feet of masters such as Buddhaand Jesus. He wants to plea to the almighty with two handsto come down and teach people to care more for their soulthan for their money. He wants to die. Forever, he wants tosleep on the lap of his God.

He is my best friend, as beautiful as my girlfriend, as lovingas my mother, motivating like my father and so on. But heis no one to this world. My poor friend but rich he is, for heunderstands the real meaning of life. God bless you, myfriend!

HUMOUR


I was in euphoria when Mehbob Alam hit a match winningfour against USA in World Cup Division Five Final match.The match was really bewitching. Rahul VK’s seven wickethaul and openers’ partnership were adorable facets ofNepalese Innings. The win opened the door for the nextplatform for Nepali Cricket to prove itself. We all hope andwish that Nepal will carry this winning wave in furtherWorld Cup selection matches.

We have good scope in cricket. Though we are poor inphysical infrastructures and technology, we have a lot ofyoung talents who keep the virtue and competence ofdragging Nepal to greater height in international cricket.The next factor I am really proud about is the increasingpopularity gained by cricket in Nepal. The crowd presentin TU Cricket Ground in the finals was really fascinating.It seems every youth cares about Nepali cricketproceedings. The passion of cricket on Nepalese isincreasing everyday.

The entry of Nepal in Division Four was down to the wiretill Friday night. But, fate or say, the blessings ofmotherland pushed Nepal to it. The decision makingmatch against USA was not expected to be as exciting. I

It has been aptly remarked: "…by the side of a beneficialmedicinal plant ‘mistletoe’, which grows on an oak tree, alsogrows ‘mandrake’, a poisonous plant." Such is the case with ourthoughts. Whenever we try to think something positive,something negative flows in. This is a fact. We try a lot to restrictour negative thoughts, but they do not cease getting inside ourbrains…corrupting it.

We, the humans, believe ourselves to be the most compellingcreature. But are we right enough? Don’t the birds and animalshave much more freedom than us? They are free to moveabout…carefree, without the consent of any of its social rules.We consider them undeveloped with regard to ourselves. But infact, they too follow the rules…the natural rules. They too havethe sense that what is beneficial or harmful for them, without theteachings of the parents or teachers.

The divine nature itself is the only perfect teacher. She knows thebest, what to be taught to whom and when. Isn’t it nature whoteaches us that if we try to touch fire it would burn us? Then whydo we, the humans try to be the teachers ourselves?

When a child is born, it seems to know nothing. But in fact, it hasbeen taught everything beforehand. It knows the greatesttruth…that there is no use talking to fools, and therefore speaks tonone. It just babbles or cries, which are the only language ofnature, adapted by all other creatures as well. The babies, if noted,do not have any fear. But the parents gradually turn them fearful,like themselves. Initially babies do not consider anyone oranything to be their enemies, but we teach them to create enemies.Aren’t we misleading them, training them to be future terrorists?

Gradually growing, a child starts taking in all the complexities of

was there for the first time in Nepal’s only internationalcricket ground and was happy to see the enthusiasticcrowd there. But, I was saddened and surprised when Isaw spectators throwing stones, bricks and bottles on theground. It was done because Nepal was on the verge oflosing the match which was an immature and disgustingaction. We all know that winning and losing are like twosides of the same coin. We cannot always expect to win.And that is not how we encourage our team. The misdeedhas worsened the status of Nepal in the internationalarena. Since cricket is a sport known for its sportsmanship;discipline and respect to opponents, this kind of behaviormust be dealt with seriously. It may also cause the loss offaith of International Cricket Council (ICC) on CricketAssociation Nepal (CAN). Such misbehaviors will reducethe chances of hosting international tournaments in Nepal.All in all, development of cricket in Nepal may behindered.

Also, CAN should focus on improving the security status instadiums. We all have seen the disciplinary and securityactions taken by ICC in our neighboring nations. So, letsshow the rational attitude to develop cricket in Nepal. Letsgrow up!

life…which were before birth so much simple for them. They areadmitted into schools, where they are taught to sacrifice all theirthoughts, in the name of discipline. Parents expect them to be thebest, to be what they like the child to be…an ungrown matured.But why? Why can’t the children remain what their age demandsthem to be?

Then as the load of their school bag increases, they get confusedwithin themselves. The increasing pressure of their parentsregarding good behavior, good marks in examinations, goodfriends’ circle; leads them to be mentally handicapped. They stopdeciding what is correct for them, relying completely upon theirparents and teachers. They stop thinking for themselves, but justenact to what their governing institutions impose upon them. Theparents and teachers normally say, "They are incapable ofdeciding what is right or wrong". Are the parents or teachersperfect then? Had they never committed any mistakes whensmall? Why don’t we think that it’s from our mistakes that welearn?

Today very few numbers of children actually do grow up tobecome themselves. Normally, the children, in the process ofenacting out their parents’ perspectives, actually end up beingnothing. Because of the loss of their real identity somewhereamidst the restrictions of their childhood, they succeed inbecoming nothing. The life of these children, when they grow upinto adults, fills up with frustrations, irritation andemptiness…….agonizing them throughout. Even if notthemselves, they try to be something, but fail. And gradually, theyget jealous of those who, unlike them, are themselves. They tryto pretend to others that they are happy within, for they think thateveryone is noticing them for their oddness. This feeling furtherleads them to their destruction…the most painful one!

After the Hollywood success of herChildren’s Bestseller ‘Aquamarine’,Alice Hoffman’s ‘Practical Magic’,also adapted as a major motionpicture now, brings forth a uniqueand deeply riveting tale about threegenerations of mystical women andtheir intertwined lives where the‘fantastic’ meets the ‘mundane’.

First published in 1995, PracticalMagic recounts the story of theOwens sisters, Sally and Gillian,who are greeted to an extraordinary

upbringing after the tragic death of their parents. Theorphans go to live with their eccentric aunts and with theseold ‘hags’, Sally and Gillian enjoy a completely differentchildhood with no rules and restrictions while their onlyguardians are busy selling love potions and solutions toheartache to the love-stricken at Magnolia Street. Aschildren, they are subject to mock and scrutiny and bothgirls deal with this situation in their own ways, growing upinto siblings totally different from each other. In due courseof time, they separate to live their own lives on the quest fortrue love. Never had they thought that their reunion yearslater would be the way it becomes.

Sally has her daughters to worry about, Gillian has herincurable problems and battling amongst auras and soulsand a conscientious police officer at their wake, will thesesisters find what they are seeking…will it be enough to keepthem alive?

The story unravels in four parts- Superstitions, Premonitions,Clairvoyance and Levitation at a pace so breathtaking andenchanting that their world of witchcraft and desires andfamilial ties all come up true. The beauty of Hoffman’swriting clearly bounds up from the pages; from the subtleway her stories grow within each other, her quotablepoetics and her soul-shattering literary skills. For me,Practical Magic is one of the best books ever written, evenbetter than the Twilight Saga, the Harry Potter series or TheLord of the Rings trilogy, and everyone should at least readit once. Trust me; you’ll really miss a great experienceotherwise. So go, get your copy, buy it or borrow it,download an eBook version because if you don’t, you’ll bethe one to regret. Happy reading!

BOOK REVIEW

Published first in 1995Printed in the USA

Once in a millennia comes a book thatredefines your very definition of love andevokes in you a thrill equivalent to a real-liferoller coaster ride, to rainstorms andsunshine and ice-cream in the cold- a greatand unrivalled treat. One of such few is AliceHoffman’s PRACTICAL MAGIC.

When bright colours, pale people and mad minds occupythe new world, which Burton has created in his latest film“Alice in Wonderland”; it is a trip you might want to take.

Alice (Mia Wasikowska) is a 19 year old girl who’s facingthe possibility of marrying a man she does not love. As sheruns off to consider the proposal, she falls down in a rabbithole and finds herself in ‘WWWWWonderland’onderland’onderland’onderland’onderland’, a place that shehad previously visited when she was much younger butapparently forgotten about. Upon her arrival, she learnsthat it has been foretold that a girl named Alice will slay theJabberwocky, a dragon that is controlled by the evil RedQueen and also free the land from her tyranny. However,there is just one problem: there appears to be someconfusion over whether or not she is the right Alice for thejob.

The characters as well as set designs are visually striking. Inaddition, the animation work is one of the movie’s greateststrengths. As the next major 3-D film after ‘Avatar’ from avisionary director many people are looking forward to thewonders of it. Burton, as usual has casted his two loyalusuals, Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter. However,these two are not the only big names in film. Alan Rickman,Anne Hathaway, Crispin Glover and Mia Wasikowska alljoined into the project, making it a rather unique cast. Eventhough Alice is a bit older in this version, this is a moviethat is aimed squarely at kids and lacks some depth thatreaders might demand from adaptation of its classic tale.

It is important to note that this movie was not shot in 3-Dlike it had to. All of the 3-D was added in post-production.This is the reason why the world does not feel quite fullyrealized and immersive. At times the environments feel a bitwashed out and empty, which could be a result of the 3-Dnot meshing well with some of the darker colours. It is stillrecommended primarily on the strength of the visuals andsome of the performances.

Ray

It’s his first album, first single, and he hitsthe chart on fifth. Pretty remarkable pieceof a newcomer, and as he is up there, he isgiving us a good dose of classy Hip Hop,accompanied by Bruno Mars. B.o.b.’s greatvocals move on the soft beats and the lyrics

are quite worth noting if you listen for them rather than the beat. Therhythm is rather soft and the rap is toned up, but the great combinationwith a nice chorus and bridge, is a great hit.

Hey, Soul Sister – TrainAlbum: Save Me, San Francisco

Soft rock of the kind that enjoys the vocals and the lyrics are beautiful asthey are what the song is all about.

I recommend itfor all the R&B, pop, and softie listeners out there.
