Rohini Sharma End Term Assignment

Ques- Self Reflective Essay.

      Ways of Reading - When I have registered for this course. It came to my mind already that it would be an easy course rather then my another courses. Because some readings were already heard before in my bachelor. Moreover, I have read some texts before in my bachelor.
          The teacher was very supportive to each and every student in the class. He encouraged the student for taking the right decision step by step. If somebody could not speak in the class during the class discussion or even in the regular class he was lawys there for support us. Whether we gave right or wrong answer to the question. There was no time when students gave the wrong answers or forgot something or could not give the exact answer. He appreciated for speaking and referring the other text to the primary text. If we speak about some small terms he always connected to his ideas and thoughts with the subject.
          For me, I have learnt most of the things from the course. It gives some pleasure in my mind and took me to the new world of authors and poets. We got to know how the readings or texts are read in the the ways as writers or pots do. We had our readings materials in both language Hindi and English. There was no any kind of boundation in whatever language the student felt comfortable they have spoken in that language. But when it comes to writing our assignments others have to submitted the translation in which language they do their assignments such as Punjabi, urdu, Tamil, bangla, malayalam and so on.
            We come to know about the different styles  in the poems. How such an element is used to describe the thoughts of the poet of that particular time. We have read many poets and their work in our classes. In addition to this, we got the chance to know about the line breaks in the poem nad the repetition of the words in poem stanza by stanza. When words are used as repition in the poem how their meanings take different form and shapes to define the nature and background of the poet while writing their work. We can guess now when this work or that work come in front of us, what was a poet and writer was thinking in the specific period. How would be the environment and nature was their to indulge them within itself.
        It was really helpful for me because my mode of language was different from the course. However, I was able to connect my thoughts and ideas with the subject matter and tried to absorve as many as knowledge i could gain through the course. It was not like the other world for me through I don't get confusion about the things and start asking the weird questions like what is this? Or what is happening?
     Apart from this I have missed many classes but that is not became the big issue for the teacher. He suggested me to make the possible way fir attend the classes on the  regular time. I tried to  every possible way to find out the right direction and do the things that I wanted to do. In addition to this, we have read two or three graphic novels during the semester. It si kind of contraction here because we used to read the champak, panchtantra stories, web series, cartoon animation in our childhood days. When we have  read  the graphic novels in the course we recalled our past memories and tried to connect with now in the present day scenario. We have experienced and analyzed the how things are changed now. We used to read them for our entertainment and spent our free tiem while readings this kind of books. It is like chalk and cheese because what we were sued to understand in our childhood days mad what we understand from now there are a lot if differences in it.
       On the other hand, I got the knowledge about the word 'panel' in the graphic novel. Because i have never heard it before in my life even not in the school education. When these long and short, large and small panels are used in the novel, the expression and experience of the characters change through time nad time, action by action in certain places. After readings the novels, we have done many activities in the class. We have created the dialogue and conversation between the characters to create a new story within the story. Moreover, through this exercise we learnt the small things from our classmates, we tried to match our answers with each other and tried to combines our thoughts to present them in one particular easy for the presenting.
           In opposition of the discussion we have done a wonderful workshop with the famous Delhi poet named Aditi Rao. She has written meny poems on the local places of the Delhi nad tries to show the emotion within the place. Before the workshop we are suggested to read the essay by Stephen Dobyns- "Metaphor and the Authenticating Act of Memory ". The workshop was divided in two days. The first day was involved in teh activities and practices with each other nad second day was the lecture day. On the first day of the workshop, she circulated the question paper sheet to each student for filling that. We were instructed to guev some terms and choose the words to describe our relations with those words. For example, if someone chooses the word friendship then he or she has to give a shpae and color to it. And, show the relationship for that word.
      On the second day of the workshop, she gave a lecture on the images and metaphors, she also clipped some recordings and videos of the other poets to differentiate the meanings from both of recording and the  videos. It was really fun to learn many new things regarding the images and teh devices that are used in teh poems. I have noted down many types of the metaphors and images that writers and poets does in their work to show the expression, in my notebook. Our others have included the novels, short stories nad novellas, such a s Arundhati Roy's, The God of the small things, John Berger's The ways of seeing, Art speigelman 'Maus part one or two both.
       
         After doing the course, I realized how difficult is write about something on a paper. Because we were given some ten prompts in mid Sem and choose three out of those ten. Firsty i write baoyt the mythological figures such as Lord Shi A's regret while beheading the Lord ganesh and second one is Draupadi's sufferings. It was really hard to write directly about this. Because i have never paid any attention about the ways of teh writing. It was not the part of my life. I have taken a lot of other resources to write this prompts. I have learnt how those small dots and exclamation marks denotes the events and incidents if the poet's personal and professional life. From now many things have changed my mind, i can observe the things in the environment that is around my life. This has really huge impact on me nad my style and way of writing. So, for teh conclusion I can say that the course was really helpful for me. I have learnt many new things.
     Prompt no. 4
    Yeh us samay ki baat Hai jab Mein apni pehli trip pr gayi thi, jo ki meri pehli trip thi, usse Pehle m kabhi khi gyi hi nhi kuki mere papa ko kbhi pasand nahi tha ghumne Jana. Vo hamesha kuch na kuch bahana krke is baat ko aram s taal diya krte the ki kisi or din chlenge. Or jab m ruth jati thi unke in bahanon ko sun kar vo hmesha mere liye meri pasandida khana bana kar ya mere liye kuch naye chize ya khilone lakr Mjhe mana liya krte or mein badi hi asani un bahanon ko bhul jaya krti.
        Mahina December ka tha or saal tha 2018,jab mene apni school khatm kr liya tha or Hmare school s ek plan bnaya ja rha tha Paanch dino k liye trip pr Jane K. Yeh moka Bs kuch bacho k liye tha jinhone us saal padhai m top kre hue the. Or mein bhi unhi bacho k ginti m thi jo ache ank vale the. Ab mere dimaag yhi pareshaani baar baar aa rhi thi k papa Mjhe phir se koi na koi na bahana bna kr ghr par hi rehne ko kahenge or Mein Har baar ki tarah vhi bacho s bhari hui bus ko apne ghar ke raaste se Jate hue dekhungi. Phir Mera man nirash ho jayega yhi duvidha mere man ko baar baar pareshaan kiye ja rhi thi.
       Phir bhi na jane jese tese himmat jutakar m papa k paas gayi or unko apne anko k bare m bataya, us din papa k mood bhut Acha tha mene Socha ke ku na inse trip vali baat ko cheda Jaye kya pta is baar Jane ko Ha krde. Par Galti unki bhi na thi kuki Hmara samaj hi ladkiyon k liye surakshit na reh chuka tha. Har din akhbaar mein kisi na kisi ghatna ko padhna, apne hi gharvalo ne apni bachi ke sath esa kiya to bharosa kis pr kiya ja skta tha yhi dar shayad mere papa ke man mein bhi tha kuki vo apni khushiyon ko khona nahi chahte the, unhe apni karibi chiz ko khone ka pachtawa ho chuka tha.
          Isliye ve hame apne se dur nahi krna chahte the. Par mene phir bhi thodi si himaat dikha ke unse Jaane k liye pucha, or is baar to mujhe khud ko bhi na Yakin Hua ke mein pure Paanch dino ke liye trip par ja rhi hu. Mere papa ne Ha krdi thi Jane Ke liye. Mein bahut khush hui us din mene papa ke liye unka pasandida khana banaya tha. Agle hi Subah school ja kr mene mera naam jane vale bacho ki list m judwa diya. Or mein ji haan mein Dalhousie ja rhi thi. Mere dimag n abhi se yeh anubhav krna shuru kar diya tha ke Vha bharaf padh rahi hogi or mausam bhi bhut thanda Hua hoga, ajib ajib sa dar Jo khushiyo or becheniyo vala dar tha bada hi acha lag rha tha.Us samay vo lamba rasta bhut chota sa lag rha tha. Kuch samay baad ghar par phuchi or apne kamre m Jane K baad un sabhi chizo ek lambi si Suchi bana dali Jo bhi Mjhe chahiye tha apne sath le Jane K liye chahiye tha. Mene mummy ke sath bazaar ja kr apne liye kharidari shuru kar di thi mein bhut kuch saman kharida tha naya bag, naye kapde or naye naye maflar or tope Jo bhi mujhe chahiye tha, har cheez meri hi pasand or rang ki thi.
       Mene bag m packing shuru krdi thi kuki shamm ko school phuchna tha hmari bus mene Subah hi dekh li thi khadhi hui school ke bahar. Jab samay or dheere dheere beet ta gaya mere man Mein Ek ajeeb si becheni si shuru ho gyi thi ki kya yeh Sab naya h Isliye. Or shaam ko Mein Ghar s chali gyi school k liye jab ham sabhi bas Mein Beth chuke the ek nayi si Jagah samne dikhayi padhi pr raste Mein Jate Jate mere aankh lag gayi. Jab agle hi din uthi to hm Dalhousie phuch chuke the. Vha sach Mein bharaf padh rhi thi mero ankhon ko Yakin na hua k yeh vhi sapana hai jo hakikat m ban chuka hai.
      Dalhousie Mein hmari booking ek hotel Mein thi jo puri tarah bharaf ki chadar s lipta Hua tha har jagah ek bharaf ki chadar thi vo tasvir aaj tk mere Dhyan m se jati nhi hai kahi bahar. Hamare haatho or peron Mein khoon kam chuka tha. Hm jese tese krke apne hotel tak phuche or maje ki baat to yeh Hai ki hotel ka Naam bada ajeeb hi tha " Mongas" Pehle to mere se padha gaya mangoes mene kha K (aam) bhi kisi Jagah k naam ho skta h kya bhala. Jab meri saheli ne bola k mangoes nahi Mongas hai. Hotel bahut si Sunder tha uske samne s bhut si sundar si chavi bani hui thi samne hi suraj ki kirane hamare kamre mein ke charo taraf giri hui thi.
      Jab hum kisi tasvir ko dekhte hain to sawal karna shuru kar dete h k vakayi m hi duniya mein esi esi Jagah sach Mein Hoti hai? Kya yeh such Mein photographer khud hi vaaha ja kr un photo ko apne ek Chote se camera mein kheech leta hai. Esa hi kuch mene apne liye mehsuus kiya tha kuki jab mene un tasveero ko apne ek Chote se camera Mein rakhna shuru kar diya tbhi ek alag si Jaan pehchaan si ho gayi thi us Choti or alagvali camera ki duniya se. Jab bhi Mein un tasveero ko baar baar dekhti hu aaj karib Paanch ya Saat saal baad Vahi sab aakriti mere ankhon ki or aa jati hai. Vhi shaam ki jagmagati roshniya or vahi thandi or shushk hawa se mere rongte khade ho Jate hai.
     Aaj bhi Mein us samay ko nahi bhul sakti hu jab hum bonfire lagake ek golakaar gola bna kr nache the or Hmare taango ne hame jawab de diya tha pr hamre hosle Abhi bhi na tute the, Hmare tange to ek budhpan mehsoos kr rhe the pr Hmare ander ek bacha Abhi bhi jawan tha jiski ankho m ek nayi umeed or nayi chamak jagi hui thi. Vahi shaam ki roz vali Maggie radio ki awaz ko dheema krke us ko  apne ander mehssos kiya krte the or unhi unisvi sadi ki gaano ko gungunaya krte the ek hi kambal tha Jisme sabhi ek Sath Beth kr ek thali ki Maggie ko khatm kr diya krte.
     Vahi ek Sath rehna aaj bhi mujhe vahi hosla or himaat deta h Jisse hum ek dusre ki bhawnayo ko samajh sake or mushkil vaqt m ek dusre ka sath de sake taki aane vale samay jab kabhi hum sabhi dost mile to vahi hosla or gambhirta Hmare beech bani rahe or kisi bhi prakar ka bhed ya darar Hmare beech mein na peda ho. Yhi asha ki kiran aaj bhi hum apne sath liye hue hain or zindagi ke palo ko jiye chale ja rhe hain.
