One day , one moment everything changed.

 After thirteen years of schooling, everyone's hope is to pass their A/L exams with successfully and enter a government university for higher education. t's been a dream of mine since childhood. But although it is every child's dream, only a very few are lucky enough to have it. I was lucky enough to have it too.

The day I was selected for the university, I woke up early and got ready to go to college. Meanwhile, I heard an announcement on television that the cut-off marks for university selection would be released today. At that time, my heart was filled with various emotions such as happiness, anxiety, and fear.

As soon as I picked up my mobile during
my break after the first semester of college, the first thing I saw was a message sent to my phone from UGC informing me that I had been selected for the University of visual & performing arts.

My heart was filled with immense joy. I felt like the luckiest person in the world at that moment. What was even more heartwarming was that all four of my friends had been selected to four different government universities.

I felt like I had achieved the results of my endless hard work and effort.

One day, one moment everything changed.

At the same time, I called my parents and told them this good news. They were even happier than me.

As soon as I got home from college, I went to my father and hugged him with humble pride.

From that day on, a new chapter in my life as a university student began.

It has been my dream since I was a child to become a dance lecturer, and I am making that dream come true soon.

Unlocking the Dancer Brain..

  A dancer has the ability to instantly understand and control the movements of their body without consciously thinking about them. This is called Kinesthetic awareness or proprioception . This allows a dancer to maintain an intuitive understanding of their body during dance without any hindrance. A key aspect of the dancer brain is an acute sensitivity to rhythm and timing. Adapts to subtle shifts in dynamics and tempo according to music or a certain rhythm. Here, a dancer's brain is active, with the innate ability to not only perform rhythms with music, but also to interpret it in the context of the moods that accompany it at that moment.

Through the eye of the camera ...

  People have many hobbies, and my hobby is photography. I love it so much. Because with the click of a camera, we can capture beautiful events and memories that we might otherwise forget, and keep them forever as a memory, without letting them fade away. I think photography is a uniquely powerful hobby that is different from other hobbies. I first picked up a camera during my school days. I was also a member of the school's photography society, where our teacher taught us how to properly photograph an object or a scene. Photography has now become an integral part of my life and has grown into a passionate hobby. The school environment was a beautiful place that gave us the opportunity to take photographs for the first time at our school. I never forget to photograph every happy moment in my life, everything aesthetic. I have many photos collected like this. A photographer's eye is a special thing. His or her eye is drawn to aesthetic, attractive things more quickly than the av...
