जापान पूर्वी एसियाको एक  टापु हो । जापानमा ६,८५२  टापु  छन् । जसकाे क्षेत्रफल ३,७७,९७५  किलोमिटर स्क्वाएर छ । जापानका  पाँच मुख्य टापुहरू तियो हो होक्काइडो, होन्शु, शिकोकु, क्युशु र ओकिनावा हुन्। टोकियो जापानको राजधानी र सबैभन्दा ठुलो सहर हो । अन्य प्रमुख सहरहरूमा योकोहामा, ओसाका, नागोया, सप्पोरो, फुकुओका, कोबे र क्योटो पर्दछन । जापान विश्वकै एघारौँ-जनसङख्या बढी भएको देश हो । जापानका मानिसहरू धेरै जसाे समुद्री सहरमा बस्छन् । जापानका गाउँघरमा कमै मान्छेकाे बसाेबास छ। जापानमा नेपाल जस्तै गाउँका मानिसहरू सबै सहर सरेका हुनाले जापानका गाउँहरू करिब खाली नै भएका छन् र सहरकाे जनसङ्ख्या दिनप्रतिदिन बढ्दै गएकाे छ ।

जापान विश्वका अन्य ठुला देश जस्तै भए पनि जापानको जनसङ्ख्या अलि कम नै छ । किनभने जापान धेरैजसो जङ्गल र हिमालले ढाकेको छ । नेपालमा जस्तै जापानमा पनि हिमाल र वन जङ्गल छन् । हिमाली भेगमा मानिसकाे बसाेबास कमै मात्रामा छ। फुजी जापानको  सबैभन्दा ठूलो र प्रसिद्ध हिमाल हो । यो हिमाललाई हेर्न बर्सेनी लाखौँ मानिसहरू जापान आउँछन् । जापानको इतिहास हजारौँ  वर्ष पुरानो छ। जापानलाई चारैतिर समुद्रले ढाकेको छ । जापानलाई उत्तर र दक्षिण कोरियाबाट जापान सी ले छुट्याउँछ भने पकिफिक समुद्रले जापानलाई रसियासँग छुट्याउँछ। जापानको दक्षिणमा उत्तरभन्दा गर्मी हुन्छ। नेपालमा जस्तै जापानमा पनि उत्तरमा  हिमाल भएकाले  हिउँ पर्छ र जाडाे बढी हुन्छ भने  दक्षिणमा गर्मी हुन्छ।

Being confined within the course books is something I believe one should not be relying on. Our knowledge should never be limited within our class and course books. This way of learning is something unnatural as we are being limited which is avoiding us to get the vastness of knowledge.

Human beings are single individuals who can never be compared with the other one. One must be such a person out there who never think of being dumb. We are really special and have something really special within us. So, explore yourself to the fullest.

Think, if Einstein can be the best world’s scientist, why can’t we be? It's all up to us. The only effort you have to apply is not limiting your knowledge. Every individual should read lots of books which are not in our course. You should read novels, biographies. 

I believe one can really change their personality with these things. One should be eager to know the biography of Hitler, Binladin or Buddha, etc. It's not necessary that one should read biographies of the person who was modest or fought for human rights or something else. One can also get an education for denying anti forces of human nature from the biography of the one who became famous as an antagonist in their real life. At least, they were the ones of whom the world got scared. They also have that quality which one of your reading of the articles can never have. From their biographies, you will know what mistakes they committed which they shouldn’t have done. Be happy every day about what you have learned. A single day teaches you a lot. So failing in exams never matters but failing in life matters. We everyone on this planet is here to earn and still will be learning. Explore the world, have an interest in things around you. Everything has something to tell you. So, explore yourself and know your potentiality and then the day is not far when the world recognizes you. There will be a point of time when you will know the answer to “who I am?” that day, believe yourself, that you become a learned one.

विगत ९ महिनादेखि कोरोनाको सङ्क्रमणको कारण बन्द रहेको हाम्रो सिफल माध्यमिक विद्यालय  पुष ६ गते पुन: सञ्चालन भयो । विद्यालय नौ महिनापछि  जाँदा मलाई निकै अनौठाै लागेको थियो । नयाँ शिक्षक शिक्षिकाहरू कस्ता होलान् ? विद्यालयकाे  नयाँ भवन कस्तो होला, भनेर खुलदुली भइरहेको थियो ।  नौ महिनादेखि नभेटेका साथीहरूलाई भेट्दा देख्दा चाहिँ रमाइलो नै हाेला भन्ने लागेको थियो । 

विद्यालय खुलेको पहिलो दिनदेखि नै हाम्रो परीक्षा सुरु  थियो । त्यसैले साथीहरूसँग गुरुहरूसँग भेट्ने बोल्ने मौका त हामीले खासै अहिलेसम्म पाएका छैनौँ । म विद्यालय जान घरबाट अलि टाढा हुँदा  सवारी साधनकाे आवश्यकता भएकाे हुनाले  बसबाट विद्यालय गएँ । सुरुको दिन हामीलाई बस लिन आउने समय अलि ढिलो भएको हुँदा त्यसदिन विद्यालय हामी अलि ढिला पुग्याैँ । सुरुकाे दिन मेरो गणितको परीक्षा थियो । त्यस दिन म र मेरा कक्षाका सबै साथीहरू  विद्यालय पुग्नासाथ  गणितका सम्भावित प्रश्नहरूबारे छलफल गर्याैँ । परीक्षा सकिएपछि हामी एकछिन कुरा गरेर  घर फर्कियाैँ ।   

विद्यालय खुलेदेखि  अहिलेसम्मका  दिनहरू यसरी नै बितिरहेका छन् । परीक्षा नै भइरहेकाले हामी खासै एक अर्कासँग धेरै बोल्ने भेट्ने गरेका छैनौँ । साथै नौ महिना नभेटेका साथी र गुरुहरूलाई देख्दा बोल्दा केही अप्ठ्यारो पर्छ कि जस्तो भएकाे थियो तर विद्यालय पुगिसकेपछि त्यस्तो केही पनि भएन । यत्राे महिना अनलाइन पढेर विद्यालय जानुपर्दा चाहिँ कस्तो कस्तो लागिरहेको थियो । अनलाइन घरमै बसेर पढ्दा अलि छोटो समय  हुन्थ्यो । विद्यालय खुलेपछि भने अलि धेरै समय पढाइमा लगाए जस्ताे  लाग्दै छ ।

Aliens or even known as Extraterrestrial life is a life form that did not originate on Earth. From the 20th century, scientists have been studying life above the earth. The alien life can also be microscopic to a size bigger than the average human. Scientists like Stephen Hawking and Carl sagan made arguments on aliens. 

When there are aliens there is UFO. UFO (unidentified flying objects) is an aerial phenomenon that cannot immediately be identified or explained. The first real photograph of a UFO was taken by astronaut José Bonilla near the sun. The sighting of aliens has been found before the birth of Christ. Every planet in the solar system has a chance of having lived in it. The latest UFO encountered is the USS Theodore Roosevelt UFO incidents. This incident happened for 9 months from 2014 to 2015. Many developed countries gave their statements on aliens that they exist.

वातावरणको अर्थ सबै प्राकृतिक परिवेश जस्तै जमिन, हावा, पानी, बिरुवा, पशु, ठोस सामग्री, सूर्यको प्रकाश, जङ्गल र अन्य चीजहरू हुन् । स्वस्थ वातावरणले प्रकृतिको सन्तुलनको साथसाथै पृथ्वीमा रहेका सबै जीवित चीजहरू विकास गर्न मद्दत गर्दछ। सम्पूर्ण प्राणीको सृष्टि प्रकृतिबाटै भएकाले वातावारणलाई प्राकृतिक परिवेशले उचित वातावरण प्रदान गरिदिएको हुन्छ । हाम्रो वातावरणमा केही विषाक्त प्रदूषक तत्वहरू थपिने प्रक्रियालाई प्रदूषण भनिन्छ । वातारण प्रदूषण हनुमा मानिस नै यसकाे मुख्य जिम्मेवार हुन्छ । 

वातारण प्रदूषणकाे असर प्रकृति,मानव र अन्य जीवमासमेत देखिन्छ । प्रदूषणले हावा तथा अन्य माध्यमबाट प्रकृति,मानव र प्राणीलाई असर पुराएकाे हुन्छ । वातावरण प्रदूषणका कारण मानिसले स्वच्छ हावा लिन पाएका छैनन् । मानिसका आफ्ना व्यक्तिगत स्वार्थले मानिस आफैँ राेगी बन्दै गइरहेकाे कुरा उसलाई थाह छैन । वातावरण स्वच्छ नभएमा मानिस आपाङ्ग नै बन्न पुग्दछ। आपाङ्ग भएर बाँच्नु ज्यादै गार्हो हुन्छ।मानिस स्वस्थ छ भने यसले जीवनमा धेरै कामहरू गर्न सक्दछ। मानिसले 'स्वास्थ्य नै जीवन हो'' भन्ने कुरा कदापि बिर्सिनु हुँदैन। वातावरण स्वच्छ हुँदा मात्र मानिस स्वस्थ बन्न सक्दछ भन्ने कुरालाई सबैले आत्मसात गर्नुपर्दछ । त्यसैले सबै मिलेर वातावरणको संरक्षण गर्नु आजको आवश्यकता  हो। यसको संरक्षणका लागि हामी जाग्नुपर्छ । जुन काम गर्दा वातावरणमा नराम्रो असर पर्छ, त्यस्ता कामहरू बिर्सेर पनि गर्नुहुँदैन।

Conan Christopher O'Brien or Conan O’Brien is an American television talk show host/comedian who was born on April 18, 1963, in Brooklin, Massachusetts. Over the years Conan has become a sensation in the American household, thanks to his unique sense of humor and his questionable sense of conduct. He has kind of a weird and unique way of humor and personality which makes him a prominent figure in the entertainment industry.
When you think of a late-night show host you think them to be elegant, graceful, and neat, that is everything that Conan is not. The way I like to describe Conan is the talkative and annoying character in a cartoon who is the punchline of every joke. Though being a guy who is in his 50s Conan does not act that way. He has been able to maintain his sense of humor throughout his career as a late-night host. Conan mainly invites celebrities and other notable people in his show and also does different things in his shows such as busting employees while eating cake, finding his staff stolen gigolos mug, etc the list goes on. He is also passionate about irritating his associate producer Jordan who is kind of a stern guy who never laughs at the funniest jokes and has a face that does not react to anything. Due to his stern demeanor, Conan has accused Jordon to be a robot, an alien who was sent to spy on Earth, etc. Conan also has other segments such as “Conan without borders” where he goes on to different countries and does local things in the country such as going to the local market or a restaurant or a national monument. Another segment of the Conan show is Conan visiting different factories or someplace such as Taco bell headquarters or a german sausage factory and many more. Normally when you go somewhere new you would lay low and learn from the guide but that is the thing that Conan does in the opposite way. If he visits a place he normally interrupts the guide and makes a joke out of everything from food to the horrible service and various things that the guide says. Also, Conan does a game reviewing segment called the clueless gamer where he invites professional gamers like Bill Hader and other major players in the gaming industry.

Conan is known for his incredible sense of humor and creating really awkward moments with his staff and other people around him. His success also comes from working in the cartoon show The Simpsons and years of dedication to comedy and experience. Conan has the personality of a man, child, and has a rather simplistic approach to interacting with his co-workers and staff. He has an insane personality and he does questionable things for the sake of entertainment, to say the least. Some of the titles of his videos are busting employees eating cake and catching employees coming late which sounds kinda uncomfortable. His approach to his staff is really funny in a way, for example, he has thrown his staff’s chair, scrambling his staff’s paper knocking down things from his staff’s table you name it he has done it. Rather than being a boss who demands the highest performance from his staff he always finds a new and annoying way to mess with them. He says he always wanted a show which looks right but is very wrong and wants to scare everyone who watches his show which is the exact phrasing to describe his mess of a show. Conan is an odd man who does odd stuff.

To sum up, Conan is a host whose passion for awkward comedy and his love for annoying and messing with people has made over the years made him into one of the most successful late-night hosts in the history of late-night shows.

वि.सं. २०७६ चैत्रदेखि बन्द भएको हाम्रो विद्यालय वि.सं.९ महिनापछि खुल्यो। कोरोनाको महामारीले गर्दा बन्द भएका विद्यालय बिस्तारै खुल्ने क्रमसँगै हाम्रो सिफल माध्यमिक विद्यालय पनि पाैष ६ गते खुल्यो र सबै जस्तै पनि म विद्यालय गएँ ।

विद्यालयले उपलब्ध गराएकाे समयअनुसार बिहान छिट्टै घरबाट हिँडे । बानी फरक भएछ । अलि नरमाइलाे लाग्यो। परीक्षाको समयले गर्दा डर पनि लागिरहेको थियो । गाडी पोहोर सालभन्दा फरक ठाउँबाट घुमेकाले अनौठो लागेको थियो । म लकडाउनको समयमा  घरबाट त्यति बाहिर नगएकाले कता कता नाैलाे र एक किसिमकाे भित्री  डरले च्यापेकाे थियाे । 

बिहान ८:४५ तिर म पुगेकी थिएँ। मैले आफ्नो परीक्षाकोठा खोजेपछि आफ्नो परीक्षा कोठामा गएर बसेँ। त्यहाँ मेरा २ जना साथीहरू आइसकेका रहेछन्। नौ महिनापछि भेटिएका भए पनि हामीले त्यति कुरा गरेनौँ। जाडो पनि भइरहेको थियो। परीक्षामा सबै जना छुटाछुट्टै बस्यौँ। परीक्षा सकिएपछि सबै जना सिधै घर गए। म गाडीबाट जाने भएकाले अझै कुर्नुपर्यो। ३० मिनेटपछि हामी गाडीमा चढ्याैँ र घर फर्क्यौं । नौ महिनापछि विद्यालय लागेको भए पनि मलाई विद्यालय जान त्यति मन थिएन । घर आएपछि म अर्को दिनको लागि पढ्न थालेँ।  ९ महिनापछि विद्यालय आउँदाको मेरो अनुभव यस्तै रह्याे ।

It is no secret that the new generation of Nepal struggles with our language. I do not know how relative this might be out of urban areas, but here the struggle is as clear as crystal in urban areas. This obviously is not something to be proud of. But sometimes it is not up to us to decide that Nepali isn’t cool.
A child born in Nepal almost always learns Nepali as their first or second language. We hear everyone around us use this language as a means of communication. So how do we grow apart from it? School. On average we have 8 or 7 subjects starting from the first grade. 90% of the subjects are in forms of English. And the Nepali subject alone undergoes the effort to help kids with their mother tongue. Take any average kid of today’s age and ask what their favourite subject is. It is almost always not Nepali. We grow distant from Nepali with every step forward in our education. Given an option between writing anything in either Nepali or English, I always lean towards writing in English. Nepali language in school has become only a form of talking casually with friends. Other than that, it has sadly become a burden.
That being said, here are my struggles with writing in Nepali. Out of all paperwork we do in school, Nepali accounts for less than 10% of it. If we look at it logically it should be less than that. But somehow Nepali assignments always find a way of overwhelming the amount of work a student gets. This obviously decreases the appeal of students towards Nepali. Hence, my first struggle. Secondly, writing in Nepali takes a lot of time. Now if I use this as an excuse for choosing English over Nepali, I am most likely to get hit with an “It's the lack of practice”. And who knows maybe it is. And in third place comes English expressions. Let me break it down for you. When I am writing something like this article, for example, I tend to use various expressions. In the last sentence, I used “let me break it down for you”. We all know that means I wanted to simplify my third struggle. If I wrote the same thing in Nepali it would sound dull and uninteresting. But that is on me. I probably am unaware of ways to make my writing more appealing and interesting in Nepali. I read a lot of books and only a tiny fraction of it makes up Nepali. That probably explains why.
So there it is. My three struggles out of many. To be honest with you, I think the type of distribution of subjects accounts for a small part in the loss of interest in Nepali in terms of writing. The major part still lies in us students and our lack of effort in the fields of Nepali literature. It is very sad to see the current generation hold the English language at a higher order than Nepali. Originally I had planned on writing this article in Nepali but you know how it is, I struggled to do so.

Stoicism is the endurance of pain or hardship without the display of feelings and without complaint. It states that we should attempt to curb our emotions when faced with things we can do nothing about. Stoicism is supposedly designed to make people more resilient, happier, more righteous, and wiser–and as a result, better people. Stoicism teaches the development of self-control. It teaches us desirable values such as courage, patience, self-discipline, serenity, perseverance, forgiveness, kindness, and humility. But does this make stoicism good and is it really for us? what should we do about things we can’t do anything about?
Stoicism believes that we should control things that we can change: emotions, desires, feelings, and totally ignore external events and there is a problem with that. It makes us accept things we aren’t actually supposed to. According to stoicism, while the sugarcane farmers are protesting demanding payment dues, we should not respond to it but rather control our decisions. On the surface, stoicism might seem practical but the world is running with the decisions tied to our emotions. We should express our emotions to the external events occurring. We should be angry at the government if they do not fulfill their promises. When should we express our emotions instead of suppressing them? These were totally my personal opinions.

धेरै दिनपछि विद्यालय जाने कुराले एकातिर मन खुसी थियो भने अर्कोतिर डर पनि । अझ भनाै पहिलो दिन म विद्यालय जाने कुराले एकदम आत्तिएकी थिएँ। विद्यालय नगएकाे पनि नाै महिनाभन्दा बढी भएको थियो । बाहिर जे देखिन्थ्याे भित्र अर्कै । वास्तवमा भन्ने हाे भने भित्री मन जान तयार थिएन। ९ महिनाभन्दा बढी घरमा बसेको हुनाले मलाई विद्यालय जान कता कता नाैलाे र एक किसिमकाे भित्री  डरले च्यापेकाे थियाे । 

 काेराेना कालमा म जस्ता सबैकाे घर नै विद्यालय थियाे र छ पनि । हाम्राे विद्यालयले पनि विद्यालयमा नै परीक्षा लिने विचारले पौष ६ गतेदेखि परीक्षा तालिका सार्वजनिक गर्याे । कतिपय साथीहरू बसबाट आउने थिए भने म चाहिँ पैदल थिएँ। जे हाेस् कक्षा ८ देखि कक्षा १२ सम्मका विद्यार्थीहरू विद्यालयमा आएर नै परीक्षा दिन तयार भयाैँ । हामीले हाम्राे परीक्षा क्याम्पसकाे भवनमा दिनुपर्ने थियो र अरू जस्तै म पनि विद्यालय पुगेँ । हाम्रो विद्यालयमा परीक्षा क्रमाङ्क भएकाहरूले मात्र प्रवेश गर्न पाउने व्यवस्था थियो। हाम्रो विद्यालयले कोभिडको लागि सबै आवश्यक सुरक्षा सावधानीहरू अपनाएको थियो। शिक्षकहरू सबैले मास्क र ग्लोभज लगाएका थिए र विद्यार्थीहरूलाई पनि मास्क लगाउन लगाइएको थियो। मेरो पहिलो दिनकाे परीक्षा गणित विषयकाे थियो। अरू जस्तै म पनि परीक्षा हल प्रवेश गरेँ। परीक्षा हलभित्र पहिलै नै एक शिक्षक थिए। उनी विद्यार्थीहरू भित्र पस्न र परीक्षा सुरु गर्नका लागि प्रतीक्षा गरिरहेका थिए। मेरा साथीहरू र म परीक्षामा आउने सम्भावित प्रश्नहरूबारे छलफल गर्दै थियौँ। निर्धारित समयमा परीक्षा  सुरु भयाे र सकियाे पनि । परीक्षा १ घण्टा ३० मिनेटकाे थियो। परीक्षा सकिएपछि  म र मेरा साथीहरू परीक्षा कस्तो भयो भनेर एकअर्काेलाई साेध्याैँ  । सबैले राम्रै भएकाे सुनाए ।

केही समय साथीहरूसँग परीक्षाको छलफल गरेपछि हामीलाई घर जान भनिएको थियो । म पनि एउटा साथीसँग घरतिर लागे। म मेरो विद्यालयको सुरक्षा सावधानीबाट पूर्णरूपमा सन्तुष्ट थिएँ। मेरो नौ महिना पछिको विद्यालय अनुभव सोचेको जस्तो नराम्रो थिएन।  

We know all the institutions were closed due to this corona pandemic in the world. We all stayed many months in our home, attending our school online, working from home, running a business online, didn’t we? Now after so many months, life is back to normal (well almost). People are going to their work, most of the institutions have opened, people are traveling. As we know, there are some schools which have already opened and the regular classes are also running smoothly with the preventive measures.

We have also got the news that our school is also going to reopen. Reopening the school is quite good as well as a bad idea. When the school reopens, we will go back to our normal classes physically, but during this pandemic reopening the school can also prove to be difficult. Reopening the school is not a bad idea but if there are no preventive measures followed like sanitizing, maintaining social distance, wearing face masks at all times, and wearing the protection band then there will be more chances that the students and the teachers will be infected by each other's diseases. While studying online, there are also many difficulties while teaching the students and difficulties for teachers also. Many chapters couldn’t be taught online because of many technical problems. If school reopens then there would be sufficient time to teach and finish the lesson plan whereas in online school there are fewer periods and has insufficient periods to finish the curriculum in time. This will be trouble for both teachers and students. Whereas if the school does not open, there will be less chance of physically distancing with many people which will be less dangerous to us. If the school decides to reopen, then they should take the responsibility of keeping the students and teachers safe by providing sanitizer, checking the temperature, maintaining social distancing, maintaining clean and separate desks.

Reopening isn’t a bad idea though many parents are a little concerned with the pandemic situation and there might be the situation that they won’t send their child to the school. Reopening the school is a good idea because there are a lot of benefits for the students and teachers in the context of studying.
