A Joyful Weekend with Family

Weekends are always special, and this one felt even more so. Usually, weekends are the time to go out and enjoy, and this Sunday was no different. Our family members first attended the Sunday service, where we also sang a song in church. After the service, we went to our relative’s house. It had been a while since we last visited, so we were really looking forward to spending the day with our cousins.

The moment we reached there, the house was filled with laughter and noise. As cousins, we shared endless stories, and spoke a lot about everything. We also spent time playing games together, which brought back memories of childhood. Later, we relaxed by watching TV, laughing at funny scenes, and enjoying each other’s company.

It wasn’t just the cousins, but also the two families sitting together, talking, and catching up. The conversations were warm and full of love, reminding us of how important family bonds are. Sharing time like this, with both elders and youngsters, gave us a sense of comfort and belonging.

And of course, no family gathering is complete without food. We had a delicious meal of rice with beef gravy and crispy fish fry. The flavors were rich and satisfying, and the joy of eating together made it taste even better. By the time night arrived, we all felt happy and satisfied after such a day. We returned to our house.

This weekend was filled with joys, family, food, laughter, and togetherness. These are the moments that make weekends truly memorable.

Blooming Beginnings

One fine morning at MCC, I paused near a bush of flowers. My friend took a picture of me standing there, but for me it was never about the photo. It was about the quiet moment of admiration. The flowers stood in their natural beauty, needing nothing more, and just looking at them gave me a calm feeling. That pause reminded me how even a small act of noticing can bring peace to the heart. Later, in the evening, the same sense of admiration returned to me in my own garden. I usually water the plants each day, but that evening I wanted to do something more. I went out and brought home a few new flowers like bougainvillea, marigold, roses and some others. These are common in Tamil Nadu, yet each carries its own charm. Planting them did not feel like work. Instead, it gave me galdness. I admired the small patch of color in my garden, and it felt like the same peace I had experienced that morning near the bush at MCC. Both moments, though different, carried the same lesson.

A World Inside a Flask

Image
One fine day in my General Elective Botany class, I held something in my hand that changed the way I look at plants. It was not a pot, not a seed, not even soil. It was a simple glass flask covered with foil, and inside it, tiny green plants were growing. The flask looked ordinary, but what it carried was extraordinary.  This method, as my professor explained, is called plant tissue culture. From just a small piece of a plant, new plants can grow in a sterile glass container filled with nutrients. Holding it in my hands felt like holding a secret garden. Before this class, I always believed plants could grow only in soil. But the tissue culture flask taught me something different: plants can grow even without soil, as long as they are given the right environment. A nutrient medium inside the glass, combined with careful conditions, helps the plants thrive. It amazed me that science has found ways to multiply plants like this. It is useful not only for agriculture, but a...

An unforgettable day

Image
I woke up earlier than usual, and because of that, I managed to catch the bus ahead of time. I reached college exactly at 7:55 a.m., which was earlier than my usual schedule. Since I had some free time, I walked towards the botany tank inside the campus. There, I sat quietly and began to admire the beauty of nature around me. The tall trees, the green plants, and the sweet chirruping of the birds created such a peaceful environment. For almost 20 minutes, I just sat there in silence, watching and listening. I realized that even though I had been in college for a long time, this was the very first time I was truly admiring nature so closely. The feeling was refreshing and calming. That simple moment filled me with peace, and I felt grateful for the little things around me. Later in the afternoon, at 3:50 p.m., I reached home. Without wasting any time, my mom, dad, and I went to a nearby dress shop. We bought a few clothes and enjoyed the shopping experience together. After f...
