My stay at Mangrol

My stay at Mangrol

Hello Friends, I'm presently at Mangrol. I came here to visit my Uncle's house. My vacations have started and so I've gone out of station. I'm enjoying here with my brother Keyur. 

He too is of same age as mine and we get together very well.
I'll be returning back to Veraval most probably day after tomorrow or tomorrow. I'm obviously missing Veraval but it's enjoyable here too. I came to Mangrol on Sunday and today it's Thursday. So it has been 4 days from my departure from Veraval. 

Here, I read book "Murder on the Links." Its written by Agatha Christie and is of detective genre. Hercule Poirot as many of you might be knowing is the detective in these novel. I've read many novels of Hercule Poirot before and as I'm reading more and more of Agatha Christie I'm becoming greater fan of her. Previously I had read "Death on the Nile", "Hercule Poirot's Christmas", "Murder on the Orient Express", "Death on the Clouds" and finally this "Murder on the Links." I've also read her most famous play "Mousetrap"
I'm looking forward to read another book of her "Curtain: Poirot's last Case"

I'll write synopsis of "Murder on the Links" when I go back to Veraval. 

Till then Au Raur (French: Good Bye)

Excited for Vacations

Excited for Vacations

Hello friends, Tomorrow is the last day before our vacation. I'm very excited and bit relaxed as I would be relieved of horrible Physics subject for at least a month. Today we had two sports periods in school. We enjoyed playing volleyball and Table Tennis. 

I've download movie Gravity which was highly acclaimed and got highest number of Oscar awards. I'll watch it tomorrow and soon write its description. I'm not having anything more to write. So I'll close it now. 

That's it.

Feeling Bored

 Boredom

Nothing of significance today. I'm writing this because I have resolved to write something or other everyday so that my vocabulary improves. Yesterday I had watched movie "The Dark Knight Rises." 

Its very good movie. The Batman does not have supernatural powers to the level to which other superheroes like Spider-Man and Superman have. Batman just uses technologically advanced gadgets. I won't describe the movie as I had been doing in previous posts. 

I liked Bane, the villain of this film. He's not like ordinary villains. He's very evil and his voice is very frightening. He wears a mask and he's trained by RA's Al Ghul, also the mentor of Batman. 

The Catwoman also has significant role in this movie. She first betrays the Batman but then she supports and they together finish the Bane and save Gotham city from Atom bomb. 

That's it for today.

Winning Extempore Competition

My First Extempore Certificate

Today Extempore competition results were announced and I'm going through mixed emotions of happiness and guilt. I got first position. Previously I had participated in extempore two times and in this third attempt I finally got a position. I proved the idiom "Try Try but don't cry."

I'm feeling guilty because I won this by using a bit of unfair means. I had exchanged my topic with my friend Abhishek in the competition. Although I might have spoken equally well on my original topic too but I was most comfortable with his topic and somehow my heart did a mistake. I feel I have done a sin. 

God ! Please forgive me. I don't want this credit at all. Abhishek is very good friend and he hasn't talked about this to me even a single time. If I had a hat I would put my Hat off for him.
