Unreal Engine (UE) is a game engine developed by Epic Games. It was first shown in the highly popular first person shooting games. Unreal was released in 1998 AD on PC. For many years the Unreal franchise and the Unreal Engine were going head to head with the Quake franchise and its engine. It can still recall the fiery debates about which game was better Quake III Arena or Unreal Tournament. I bet this is still a hot topic among old school FPS players.
This year’s first grand event of DSS, Back to School Night was held on 24th May, 2019 from 4 PM to 7 PM. All the students except the volunteers went home at 3:45. I was assigned as the volunteer for Grade X. I along with my fellow volunteers gathered at the stage to have a discussion with the principal and the teachers. At around 4:30 parents started to arrive. The bell rang at 4:55. All the parents lined up. They had an assembly like how we students do. Then at 5:10 the parents were taken to their respective child’s classes. They had to attend each class for 15 minutes. They took four classes overall. The classes ran upto 6:15 PM. After the classes, parents came down on the school grounds where they conversed with the teachers. The parents really adored the event. I hope they assimilated and remembered their past days in school.

She campaigned for women's suffrage, labor rights, socialism, antimilitarism and other similar causes. At 19 months old, Keller contracted an unknown illness described by doctors as an “Acute congestion of the stomach and brain” which might have been scarlet fever or meningitis. The illness left her both deaf and blind. By the age of seven, Keller had more than 60 signs to communicate with her family. Helen Keller was viewed as isolated but was very in touch with outside world. Keller went on to become a world wide-famous speaker and author. The deaf community was widely impacted by her. She travelled to 25 different countries giving motivational speeches about deaf people’s conditions. Keller was a member of a socialist party. Many of her speeches and writings were about women’s right to vote and the impacts of war. In addition, she supported causes that opposed military intervention.
Time waits for no one. Time is one of the most valuable things we have and it should be spent wisely. If money is lost, it can be earned again, but once the time passes it’s gone forever. Time plays a very important role in everyone’s life. For instance, students, service people, business people, housewives and so on. It is very essential to manage and utilize time to its best. We will have to set time to accomplish any task and finish it on time. Time only gives us one chance and we have to use it in the best way. We have to take it as an opportunity and make the best out of it.
We, the tenth graders, were taken on a field trip to dog training centre. The whole idea of the trip was to make us understand how police dogs are trained and what they are actually capable of doing in various aspects of police department.
We headed to the training centre at 9:40. It felt like a fraction of seconds before we reached there. It wasn’t that far. After we reached there, people in the centre were so kind. They guided us to the training ground. There was a little stadium facing the ground. We sat there. Then, a policeman came and explained to us about dogs and the canine.
There are 8 breeds of dogs in the canine. One of the dogs breeds that they owned was worth 7 lakhs and it had the most powerful smelling ability that it could sniff the evidence if it is taken to the crime scene within 96 hours. All the dogs presented there had their own uniform called harness that they put on while they are assigned to do some tasks. They had to work for crime investigation, scouting for narcotics, search for bombs and help in rescue.
We still remember the days when with the overflowing class of more than 50 students, a teacher would sit at the front desk, grading piles of papers which were submitted by students. Those were the years when we prioritized grades over knowledge. After the examination, every student turned quiet. The classroom turned into a warzone and friends turned into enemies.
But once we started to study at private level schools, the scenario was different. The level of competition has decreased. The school started to encourage us to participate in different curricular activities conducted by the school. The subjects became more interesting and the course became more flexible and creative. Also, teachers started encouraging students to interact. But did this make knowledge gaining process weaker? Not at all.
As a conclusion, it led us to be more creative and fruitful. Honestly speaking, all Nepali students are not lucky enough to escape the grades and mugging trap of education system. The culture of studying only for exams affects students and hamper their knowledge gaining ability. Nowadays, we can see every single stationery, selling notes and guide books of different subjects, which promise students to get good marks, if they mug up properly.

People who are nostalgic about childhood were obviously never children. Few can remember the truth about adolescence. Their minds "censor" their memories and have them believe that being a teenager was one of a big party, free of cares and responsibilities. Well, there aren't many adults who realize what adolescence was really like. The anguish, the fear, the anxiety, the stress. People don't remember those because they simply want to forget them. The truth of the matter is, that being a teenager is hard right from the beginning and it doesn't get any easier. So, adults should support them.
He is known as Mr. Beast all over Youtube but his real name is Jimmy Donaldson who was born on May 7, 1998. He is a youtuber who does crazy challenges like: the last person to leave the circle wins 10 thousand pounds or even more. He donates money to those people who are streaming regardless of being popular or not. Some people call him a mentally disabled person but I call him God. I hope someday people like Mr. Beast will be born in Nepal as well. He has 19 million subscribers in his youtube channel. Recently he supported Pewdiepie a lot by buying billboards.
I believe that every person is born with talent. Don’t we all have our talents? Of course, we do. We have our talents inside us but we do not try to show it; we are scared to show it. The reason we don’t show our talent is that we underestimate ourselves and start to lose our hope and confidence. The other reason is that we are afraid that someone will make fun of us. If anyone actually does make fun, we should just ignore them because they don’t have the talent that you have. Talent is a god gifted thing; use it wisely. Nobody is perfect and is born to be perfect. Learn from your mistakes because mistakes are expected, inspected, respected and corrected. Don’t judge people by their looks. Instead, judge them by their talents. If you keep your talents reserved within yourself in present, you will regret it for a lifetime in the coming future. If you don’t feel you have any talents within you, you will shortly find it. Downton Abbey said "You have the talent that none of the rest has. Just find what it is and use it. It's doing nothing. That’s the enemy." So, find your talents and show it to others.
It was a cloudy day. It was the day that my fellows and I had been waiting for a very long time. I woke up and went to school earlier than other days. As me and my friends walked around chatting with each other, I could see other students dressed up in formal attire like me and some of my friends. After all, it was Deerwalk Poetry Night.
After a long procedure, the finalists of the Deerwalk Poetry Night were selected and I was one of them. Altogether there were 31 participants, 15 from English language and 16 from Nepali language. As the competition began, I started getting really nervous which affected my performance. Saisha Pudasaini was declared as the winner of English language and Manasbhi Niraula of Nepali language. Manasbhi Niraula was also the level champion of lower school in both Nepali and English language while Saisha Pudasaini was the level champion of high school in English language category. Besides them, Sunabi and Anushree from middle school and Arunesh from high school were also the level champions.
Poetry has always fascinated me. However, I could not meet my expectations this time which made me feel like I was falling behind. I had no confidence in me or rather I had given up before I even performed. My stage fright ruined my whole performance as I stood there whole-heartedly dejected. I learned that confidence always does miracles in every performance, and lack of confidence is something that ruins it.
