Books are one of the greatest products that humanity has ever created by incorporating their intelligence and creativity. Books are not only a source of vast knowledge in our hands, but they also provide entertainment. There are various types and genres of books available on the market. Whether it is the fiction books or the non-fiction ones, it is the skills and style of the author that makes the reading interesting and often productive too. Books have always been regarded as the key that open the gates to wonders and fantasy in the minds of children as well as adults. When someone picks up a well written book, then age becomes a number in actual ways as old as well as young experience the same joy and feels the same ecstasy.

There are uncountable books to choose from, but the one I like the most is “400 Days” by Chetan Bhagat. This book was published recently in the year 2021. It falls under the genres of mystery and thriller and follows the story of Keshav Rajpurohit who is preparing for UPSC exams while also running a detective agency with his friend Saurabh Maheshwari. 

If I could get a chance to spend a day with my favorite character and also the protagonist of this book, Keshav Rajpurohit, I would be joyful beyond limits. Watching him as he prepares for his UPSC exam late at nights and getting to learn various things about the examination while also discussing various issues and essay topics would be very delightful. Though, Keshav does not truly want to prepare for UPSC exams as he is already twenty-nine years old and IIT graduate without a job, he takes his preparations seriously and also enjoys his life as an adult with his best friend Saurabh. I like the bond between Keshav and Saurabh very much and watching them closely as they share their experiences of the day would be very enjoyable. 

Keshav's mother is a great cook and I have always longed to eat her dishes. It is unfortunate that written text can only describe how the food looks, and one cannot appreciate the smell and taste of it, but it become very simple from the conversation and actions of the people gathered at the table that the food would be quite delicious.

If I were to spend a day with Keshav, I would wake up early to watch him as he exercises and meditate to keep his body and mind healthy. I would also participate with him in the morning workout. After that, I would sit with Keshav's family to eat the breakfast prepared by Keshav's mother. I would enjoy as Keshav will talk with mother and laugh when his father would scold him for every little thing. 

Keshav likes to go out for walks to fresh up his mind from studies and to also get a new perspective while solving a case. I would like to accompany him on such a walk. He relies on his best friend, Saurabh, who works at a tech company, but helps his friend despite being a busy person. 

In the afternoon, I would discuss all the stories about IIT from Keshav as he was a graduate from there. I would hear about his experiences and try to learn from them. In the evening, I would gladly slurp the tea made by Keshav's mother as the family gathers for the evening snack. After the tea, I would accompany him as he walks out to discover evidence about the case and talk to the police officers. I would like to hear as he converses with the officers and learn how to pursue others to do something. 

Finally, after all the tiring work of the day, I would have the dinner with Keshav and have a last look at how he studies at night before leaving for my home.

Being a detective is a difficult job, and it becomes more difficult if one is pursuing studies along with solving cases. Time management becomes almost impossible and taking out time for even the smallest things becomes quite difficult. Detectives are skilled at their profession and know how to read the situation and respond to the query raised or ask questions. It would be a wonderful experience if I would get a chance to spend a day with one such person.

Narrate an experience that shows appearances can be deceiving

Image
A person standing in the railway station dressed in a good looking attire It is a common habit of humans to make judgements at the first look. It does not matter if we are seeing a person or a thing for the first time, our minds do not need to take a second look before coming to a judgement. If we look at a person, we quickly look at his clothes and shoes and come to the assumption that he is poor or rich. The same is the case with things, we decide for ourselves whether a substance is expensive or cheap just by its glittering and glistening. Over time, many learned personalities have taught us to "not judge a book by its cover." Through his various plays and writing, William Shakespeare, the popular eighteenth-century English writer, has sent the message to not fall for outward appearances. I have recently expereinced an incident that explains why is it important to not rely on just outward appearances to make a judgement about a person. I was travelling by train during my s...

Class 11th Final Term Maths Test

Image
It was a few days ago when my class teacher announced that the following week class tests will be conducted. It did not caught us out of blue as we had already expected it, but the thing that surprised us was the syllabus and schedule for the test. We had no breaks between the tests since the school decided to conduct all the tests in a single week. Somedays we had to prepare for two subjects.  The syllabus was so vast that it was almost impossible to cover in a few days. All the main subjects including Physics, Chemistry and Maths had 2 chapters and these were the chapters that I had never even read before. There was a chapters in Maths called Limits and Derivatives, which I was hearing about for the first time. When I first opened my Maths book and looked at the chapter, it almost panicked me. There were all types of new symbols and strange equations which I had no idea how to solve. I decided it would be a waste of time to understand this completely new chapter all by myself, so...

Heath: A heath is a barren wasteland.  Forres: A city in Scotland where the castle of King Duncan is located.  Weather: The scene starts with the witches meeting with each other on a barren wasteland. The weather is one that is according to the preferences of the witches. It is lightning through the sky. The lightning symbolizes the unbalance in nature that the witches cause with their supernatural powers, and it also foreshadows the turbulence in Macbeth's heart a little bit ahead in scene that the witches' prophecies will cause. Witches' favorite pastime activity:  The scene showcases that the favorite pastime activity for the witches is to kill swine (old English word for pigs) and cause trouble for the normal human beings. The scene starts with the First Witch asking where the other witches were. The Second Witch answers that she had been killing swine as a leisure ac...

Describe a moment of pure joy or awe you experienced, using your words to paint a picture of the scene and evoke the emotions you felt

Image
Describe a moment of pure joy or awe you experienced, using your words to paint a picture of the scene and evoke the emotions you felt. Everyone has a moment that gives joy and eternal bliss. Some never forget those moments till the end of their lives while others keep looking for new moments to add to their collection. These moments could be anything like a journey during the summer vacation, a beautiful sunset scene, the ending of a novel, time spent with friends or children, an unimaginable dream, and lots more. The moment that gives me pure joy is none of the above-mentioned, it is very different and unique, yet I can say with confidence beaming through my entire body that my moment is the happiest of them all. It is not the fun of a journey during the hot summers or cold winters, it is not an emotional ending of a novel, and it is neither enjoying a show. It is simple yet so profound that it left a joyful mark on my heart so that I would not even think of ever forgetting it.  ...

Macbeth Personal Notes: Act 1 Scene 3 (Part 2/2)

Image
Macbeth Personal Notes: Act 1 Scene 3 (Part 2/2)   "Lesser than Macbeth, and greater. Not so happy, yet much happier. Thou shalt get kings, though thou be none." The witches mean that though Banquo will be lesser in rank than Macbeth, he will be morally higher. Banquo will be less successful than Macbeth, but he will be satisfied with his life and do not have to worry about someone taking his position. Banquo will be the father of the kings though he himself will not get the chance to be one. Witches vanish When Macbeth hears the witches predict about his future of becoming the Thane of Cawdor and eventually king, and Banquo's prediction of becoming the father of kings, he asks the witches how these predictions will come true and how the witches have come to know about their future. He also asks them that why had they chose them to stop on the way to the Foress and talk about their futures.  The witches chose not to answer Macbeth's questions and vanish into the air. ...

Imagine that you were all alone at home on a winter night. Suddenly there was thunder, lightning and heavy rain. There was no electricity, and the inverter in your house stopped working. Narrate how you felt and what you did at that time.

An image of a house in winter covered with snow Staying alone at home is the experience every teenager craves to get once. It is a different adventure, for you can do whatever you want, like playing games at high volumes, running all around the house, and exploring the restricted parts like the garage and basement. But as the saying goes, "The biggest adventure does not take long to become the greatest nightmare". Something like this happened to me recently when I had gone to stay in my father's childhood home for the winter holidays in Himachal Pradesh. My grandfather built the house in the small and sparsely populated yet beautiful village of Kangra. We often choose it as our tourist destination because of its heavenly landscapes and majestic mountains. We headed there this time not just to spend the holidays but also to attend the marriage ceremony of my cousin. I had a severe stomach ache on the wedding day, so my parents had to leave me at home and go to the wedding....
