Blog Prompt 7


Blog Prompt: Which part of village by the sea do you like the most?




For me, I think that the part where Hari returned home after the short stint in Bombay impressed me the most. Hari had decided to run away from home because of the mounting pressure on him. However he realised that running away should not be an option and came home. This part expresses the relief of Lila and how things went well for the family. There was joy, love, hope and many important aspect of life described there. It had concluded a very touching book very well.

That part also gives me relief after the first part of the book made me pity with the kids. It also tells us that behind every problem there will be a solution. As the saying goes ' behind every cloud there is a silver lining'. It has also told me that never to give up no matter how much difficulty you face. They faced with life and death difficulty. However we are only facing with homework difficulties. That is peanuts compared to Hari's problems.

Lebron James

I'm sure everyone has heard of the name Lebron James. Even non-basketball players would have heard of him. Recently, he won the much coveted award, the most valuable award. He had just led his team the Cleveland Cavailers to their best ever season. He is not just a good basketball player he is a magnificent one. One that nba will not see for a long time. So, I will pay a tribute to him by letting you all enjoy this video.:

Now, I hope you know more about him now, and have a different opinion about him. If you have any queries just ask me.

Blog Prompt 6

Blog Prompt:


Write a personal recount about a time when you were so caught up in gaming that you neglected the people around you and how you came to regret your behaviour.


Reply:


I'm sure that many people have been caught up in gaming before. Some people might know the consequences but many might not. I'm writing on what had happened to me in the past and I hope that it can help those who are in similar position.


I was only 10. However gaming was already part of my life. By 11 I was already obsessed. Unstoppable. My parents were at wits end. They shouted, scolded and even gave me a harsh spanking but to no avail. They had no choice but to confiscate the gadgets. However that made me even worse...


Even without knowing 2 days later I was already at the arcade desperately trying to 'kill' the monster with the 'gun'! That continued for another 3 more months. Indeed, I was unstoppable.


However, with fear, the unstoppable became stoppable when my father gave me less and less money. One fine day he gave me none. Embaressment, the greatest thing teenagers probably fear. The day I changed, I realised how much I had wasted my time! A pile of my homework was not done, my room was in a mess and etc. I had regreted this short period of time and I will regret it for life.



From then on I decided to change my habits. I started creating my own timetable. However as the saying goes 'all work and no play make jack a dull boy' , so, instead i started playing basketball which gave me an healthy lifestyle.

So everyone out there seize your minutes and do not waste your time.
