An Ode to Video games

 Boredom can give rise to a lot of things, for me lately, an addiction to writing has really gotten to my head. So here, just a little something I ended up typing to my friend Shruti in a matter of 30 mins when I thought she was offline (But somehow wasn't):


Yknow,

I want something, that which i cannot say,

I want something, that which i cannot describe,

I want something, that which i cannot ask for,

I want something, something prehistoric, something atavistic, something uncultured,

Remnants of a past hobby,

Withered, but present,

With influence so grand, so emminent, so irresistible

One that engenders shivers, goosebumps, and naive exploitable excitement

A grating decay of a plane, damp sounds of battering bones and swift stabs that atrophy

Explosions that stupor, stories that inspire, and zombies that devour

Not trite, not grindy, but one with an end

Not limited, not unfathomable, but lovable

Addicting, but not degrading

Reviving not enervating

One that tests skills, not temper and tolerance

Gauges grip, flexibility, and memory

One that teleports, transcends, and sensitizes

Through the ups and downs, canyons and plateaus, spaces and oceans, galaxies and heavens

With the pining of those gone, and embracing the ones who aren't

The silent protective volitions for some and merciless inconsiderate gratifying executions for others

The shifting gears, cocking guns or charging plasmas

That wake a beast that only yearns for more

I want something, which cannot be delivered

I want something, which does not exist

I want something, which i will want, till the end of my days


                                                                        THANK YOU


P.S: 

- The last line can be improved upon so much.

How Not to be a Good Mentor

The best way to teach — whether as an educator, employer, or parent — is to praise positive actions and ignore negative ones. Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the claim. In developing and supporting your position, be sure to address the most compelling reasons and/or examples that could be used to challenge your position. Mentorship is a foundational stepping stone for any development, be it in a student pursuing school education or an adult entering a new company as an intern ready to explore new horizons. How a person takes upon this responsibility to rear an individual’s skills to be culturally, and morally appropriate is entirely upto them. They are tasked with choosing several methodologies, two of which would be to weigh their disciples positives and negatives and reward them accordingly, and the other would be to ignore the negatives and focus on their positives and push them to keep improving those positive qualities.

Practice Makes Perfect

  In any field of inquiry, the beginner is more likely than the expert to make important contributions. Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider ways in which the statement might or might not hold true and explain how these considerations shape your position. Can anyone ever definitively answer the question what was there in the beginning? Not specifically the beginning of something in particular, generally, in the beginning of anything. In some sense the inchoates of anything is a beginner. From objects like constituent components like gases forming massive planets, to the first innovator who built the wheel. Everything, both as a concept, and everyone, was at some point a beginner. Even a human being that starts of as an obnoxious inquisitive child involuntarily in search of their own passions. And it stands to
