James hadley Chase

    The department released a E journal, as a new activity from this lucky year -twenty 13, as part of second issue, I was asked to write an article on the Onam fest we conducted. It is an annual event, and I was pondering what to impregnate with the existing one. As i closed my eyes , the drumming of chenda kept my mind and ears occupied. On the day of the event , the chenda continued for a prolonged time which occupied the space of the whole event. There was a prayer song, followed by Skit and group songs.

    The audience was really attracted, by the flavors from our kitchen than the event. The Ada pradaman was double sweet, which went for double servings for many guest. The Sadya of avial, thoran, erussery, etc was really delicious and tasty, but then a hungry stomach doesn't mind tasteless food. The real joy happens when there is music which accompanies food, here in our event the music alone made the stomach and heart filled.

Even its a team work or an effort from few, any event will happen. The individual make no sense in it. How well the effect of the event affect is only through commitment and hard work. Here in our case our students has both (commitment and hard work ) in ample amount. Many a times I have wondered what happens to the commitment and hard work when it comes to academics. I can boast by saying Mr.X a student get 90% , and I really don't care whether Mr.Y& Mr. Z gets a mark or not. But Mr.X is studious from his school, he doesn't require you for the 90%. my other part keep telling me.

  Its my duty to make the average and below average students to excel, how long can I keep repeating the dialogue, that I can only lead a horse to water, but can't make it drink.My tongues are tired repeating ,it lose strength in replacing donkey with the horse. A decade has passed since I started delivering my so called lectures. and a decade has passed with inconsistent satisfaction level. 

   An occasional telephone calls from, passed out students will increase the confident level, some with a best employee award, some as managers in leading properties, this give me a happy sleep, the happiness inside me bursting with proud. how happy if every one of my students excel. I love selfishness.

  Now a days , I my objective is to make the maximum level of students t\in to reading habits, even in this all days are not Sundays. Tests , assignments, and what not everything has its own course. and I lost a dozen of books lending to somebody. and the online shopping charges fifty rupees for shipment, Fifty may sound simple, for me its two James Hadley chase in the second hand book market.
