Home is where the ♥ is



YOU ARE AS HOMESICK AS YOU THINK

 HOME, the place where we can all rest our heads and pour our hearts out, the place where we truly belong, among our family’s warmth. What could be tougher than leaving all the warmth and comfort behind and settling somewhere distant? College life is the beginning of many realizations which help us grow as an individual. It makes us independent and responsible. It helps us in coping with the hurdles and obstacles all by our self.

We all step into real world and feel lost initially and it’s only human to feel so. Think about the first time you learnt how to ride bicycle- you needed someone to hold it and one day they just let you go without you even realizing it and that’s when you realized your capability. Mandy Hale beautifully said, “To live, to TRULY live, we must be willing to RISK.”
The idea of leaving home and living alone is, indeed, very intimidating. Being a second year student from Christ University, I know how difficult it was for me to cope with an entire new setting but I knew for a fact that thinking about this will only make me more homesick. So instead of constantly thinking about the new place I told myself that, “This is how it’s going to be for the next few years and I have two choices- either crib about how this place is not my home or take this up as a challenge to adjust to the environment and make this my home”.  
Ø  So what do you take home from the words above?
·         It is okay to miss your home
·         With a strong will, you can easily adjust anywhere
·         It is really important to step out of your comfort zone
·         Great things require great perseverance

Response of a student; Pleading for change

Response of a student; Pleading for change . What will your reaction be when your own daughter becomes the prey of molestation? How would you feel when one of your own family members becomes the object of sex trafficking? How aggressively would you stand to fight when you hear from someone that your daughter was beaten, raped and murdered? Won’t your heart seize to beat? Won’t your brain just freeze? This was the same situation with me when I was going through news headlines recently – “ An eight year old girl, Asifa  had been gang raped, strangled with her own scarf and bashed in the skull with a rock.” And not more than few days had passed to this incident , that another headline reported-“ Another 8-year old girl raped and killed”. My follicles stood tall , there ran deep terror inside and the tears dropped without even a pause. Are we progressing toward a period where humanity will seize to exist and a new world of crime and punishment be the foundation of constitution? ...

Be Active, Be Healthy, Be Happy

Be Active, Be Healthy, Be Happy Health and Fitness have become key words in today’s stress filled life. But do we have the time to indulge in fitness activities when we are overloaded with college assignments, exams and activities ? A healthy body is a barometer of a person’s mental state. Honestly, I am not a person who would take the effort of exercising on a regular basis. But I do believe in the old adage,’if health is lost, wealth is lost’. I am aware that I have to stay fit, both in body and mind. Personal instances have proved that exercising creates a very positive energy around one; it increases the alertness of the mind. One suddenly feels recharged and filled with positive motivation to achieve the target plan of the day. Just last month a friend of mine in the hostel started exercising in the morning. The result has been encouraging as doesn’t feel fatigued and feels fresh in class too. She is no more haunted by sleep monsters during lectures. She choose to exercis...
