The Obama Connection



Obama In Mumbai
                                                                 An Experience To Remember


I was asked by our principal of St. Andrews College, Dr. Marie Fernandes, if I’d like to go for a talk by President Obama. I replied, “Yes, of course.”

Even though I am not a great follower of him, I knew I was about to meet the most powerful man in the world, and that was enough to keep me excited. I felt lucky when I learnt that I along with 9 other students from St. Andrews college were among the fortunate 300 students from six colleges across the city who were about to attend the Town Hall meeting with Mr. Barack Obama. Calls from officials at mid night for verification, trips to police station, submission of various identity proofs and all the gruelling security procedures we went through almost a week before the Town Hall event.

'Art'



Let Art be a mean to explore your creativity
indulge in yourself
and experience the Beauty!

I know ‘Art’ cannot be portrayed in just few words. But the beauty of art with its imagination and creative skills has really caught my interest and made me research on its basic history. Art is just not dimensioned towards paintings, but it is a diversified term. Visual arts more or less refers to creation of one’s imagination into images or objects which would nearly include  paintings, sculpture,  photography and other such visual source of arts. Apart from visual term towards arts we also have music, theatre, film and literature that fall under the diversified stream of arts.
