If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.". Wednesday, June 27, 2012. I asked this particular student why he hadn't brought a letter to excuse his absence yesterday.He wouldn't reply and looked curiously awkward when I demanded that he at least give some sort of a verbal explanation. He kept on eyeing the floor, standing in the last row. Finally, I asked him to come up to my desk and tell me what the matter was. He stubbornly maintained that his mother woke him up everyday. He said it with...

If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.". Monday, December 24, 2012. Brrrrrrrrrr.aving the collllllld. I seem to be the only one who is not at all happy to experience the Kolkata winter. Everyone else seems quite eager to bring out their winter plumage and bedding and savour every degree of the fall in mercury. I feel wretched. I always seem to feel cold, especially in the afternoon.even under the quilt I seem to freeze! Well, what can I say. Just that I like the sun a lot! Even more so ...

If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.". Tuesday, March 27, 2012. Finally, after over three weeks of our hard work, the students received their report cards today. There was only one thing that was worth noting and that was the change in parents' attitudes towards the annual exam results. Secondly, parents appear to nag their wards/children too much. Why do you talk to friends so much over the phone? Why are you so easily distracted? Why are you always reading a storybook? I love words&...

If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.". Saturday, November 10, 2012. I think I'll come later for the medicine. I'm really scared of injections. I was taking an anti-tetanus injection at the local medicine shop and whipped my head around. It was a big, and burly but terrible-fear-in-his-eyes traffic sergeant. He reappeared 5 mins later, eyeing my hand cautiously. By then, it was all over and I was paying the dispenser. I do feel I should be getting a bravery award soon :-D. I belong to :.

If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.". Wednesday, January 25, 2012. This is a long overdue post, actually composed last September when I was in my previous job (by the way, the colleagues mentioned are not the ones so dear to me, hailing either from the first or second floor staffrooms. They are excepted with complete dignity from my emotional hangover :-). Live and let live.that's all I have to say. How is it that I almost feel like I was Bella myself? And what about Edward? Drifting...

If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.". Thursday, May 26, 2011. Just as I was begin to hope I'd be more regular in my posts, I end up with a dislocated wrist joint. And the final exams are less than a month away! Saturday, May 14, 2011. Well, yes, the BEd practical exams are over and now I have more than a month to prepare for the 600 marks' theory exams. So I'm back! There's so much I should have been blogging about that I hardly know where to start. K and his friend Rajiv. We were fo...

If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.". Wednesday, June 22, 2011. Nazis, each of us. Inspired by 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas'. My eyes still sting in shame. I fear to utter my name. Lest I be branded. Just for being a Jew. My history lies in ruins. My children sing no tunes. Lest I be taken away. Torn and turned astray. Battered into a block of clay. Just for being a Jew. My breath chokes out of a chamber. A nightmare none shall dismember. Lest I be applauded. Just for being a Jew.
