SOME DISASTERS OF ONLINE MEETS

How many days does it get you to recover from an embarrassing situation ?  It might take just minutes or for some people days. Others might sleep it off  and forget about the whole matter. Since I got a first hand experience today, I don't know how much time it will take for me to recover. What happened? Nothing just yelled over the top of my voice at my brother in need of assistance because my ppt failed to appear on my screen, completely forgetting that my microphone was on and that 80 other people was there listening to my yelling loud and clear. Apologies readers. 

Today morning we listened to some reading and reflections in literature.

 


  “If you are lucky, you will never have to remember home through your mother’s tears or the rage in your father’s voice when it shakes. Home will be somewhere you run to, never away from. It will never chase you away; a rabid dog hot on your heels with teeth like a shark, teeth so sharp you can already feel it cutting into you.” (No Place to Call Home). The writer has poured out his heart in the book.

The other book, 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower', is another promising work inviting readers to a set of characters who like to refer to themselves as misfit toys. What makes the book work as well as it does for all people is that the characters are, by and large, relatable (even if the situations are not), like being  a "wallflower", meaning someone who always watches without actively take part to anything, can be safer but in the end you will have wasted your live without actually doing what you want.


One long day for me😌

Uninterest is the opposite of interest. It means to not show any care or concern for things. One is said to show disinterest when they don't bother to do something. For example- Ben is uninterested in joining the tour to Goa . They were uninterested in volunteering. Disinterest means to not take both sides of an argument. Choosing not to take sides. For example: She showed disinterest in taking sides. John was disinterested in his children's fight. Today session Joju sir made us stick positive quotes on the Jamboard.
