एक्लै हिड बटुवा
तिमी एक्लै हिड 
यहाँ भिडमा पनि, त सबै एक्लै छन्
तिमी पनि एक्लै हिड । 
अनगिन्ती सोच रहेको 
खोजीमा तिमी एक्लै हिड।

सँगैसँगै तिम्रो मन
साथी पनि त छैनन्
पर्वतीय हिमाललाई तिमीले साथी त बनायौ
तर 
ती सबमा तिम्रो मात्र हैन
अरुको पनि त हक छ
ए बटुवा तिमी एक्लै हिड । 
कुरा गर बटुवा 
तिम्रो यात्रा कहाँसम्म पुग्यो ?
तिम्रो मन अधीर छ, डराउँछ होला, 
हेर बटुवा
यहाँ माया छ आशा छ
तिम्रो यात्रा त लामो छ
तिमी एक्लै हिड ।

बिहानको प्रकाशमा
तिम्रा पर्वतहरू चम्किन्छन्
दिनको अवसानमा
तिम्रो बिस्तारै सूर्यले झल्काउँछ ।
ए बटुवा 
तिम्रो यात्राले अनगिन्ति अवसरहरू ल्याउँछ
सङ्घर्षमय जीवनमा हेर बटुवा,
तिमी एक्लै हिड। 

Just an opinion
hear me out.
The colour yellow is disgusting
I say without doubt.

When they see the colour yellow,
They imagine daffodils and the sun.
But it makes me think of urine and jaundice
That's sadly fun!

The colour yellow burns my retinas,
‘Cause it's too bright.
It makes me beat people with jaundice in a fight.

Why a colour as such exist?
So disgusting, so vile?
‘Cause I feel everyone makes mistakes,
Even God, for this despite his might.

So that is my rant 
About why the colour yellow sucks.
You try to convince me otherwise
If you want to achieve nothing from dawn till dusk.

Cryptocurrency is a relatively new form of digital money that relies on secure coding techniques. It has gained popularity and could change how we use money globally. But in Nepal, its legal status is uncertain. The government hasn't officially said whether it's allowed. In fact, we do not have a clear policy for cryptocurrency as such. 

The debate on whether Nepal should make cryptocurrency legal is complex. There are several perspectives by which people support or oppose this idea, each with its own perspective. One key point is that legalizing cryptocurrency could boost technology and help our economy grow. Cryptocurrencies could change how we do things, especially in finance. Transactions could be faster, cheaper, and more secure. Also, allowing cryptocurrency could bring in new investment opportunities for nepalese. Another important reason is that more people could get access to financial services. People who don't have easy access to traditional banks, especially in remote areas, might benefit.

Think about people who work abroad and send money back home. That's a big deal for Nepal's economy. Cryptocurrencies could make it quicker and cheaper to send money across borders. Moreover, the way cryptocurrencies work might help cut down on corruption. Because all transactions are visible, there's less room for under the table cash transactions. This could increase trust in the government.

Also, by saying "yes" to cryptocurrencies, Nepal could show it's open to new things. This might lead to more partnerships and collaborations with other countries interested in digital money. Cryptocurrency operates in a highly volatile market, marked by rapid and unpredictable price fluctuations. This volatility poses both opportunities and risks, attracting investors seeking high returns while necessitating cautious decision-making due to the inherent instability.

Still, there are concerns. Some worry that if cryptocurrencies are allowed, bad things might happen. People might use them for illegal things, and it could be hard to catch them. Plus, there's the issue of taxes – how would the government collect them if everyone's using digital money?

Cryptocurrency has the potential to change how banking works, especially in places like Nepal. Instead of having one boss in control, it's more like a team effort, which could be good for Nepal's banks. In Nepal, there are places that are hard to reach, and getting to a bank can be a challenge. Cryptocurrencies don't need a specific place, so they could help people in these areas do money stuff without going to a bank.

And since the majority of Nepal's income comes from remittance. Using cryptocurrencies could make sending money across borders faster and cheaper. This could be a big help for Nepal's economy. Another interesting thing about cryptocurrencies is that they use blockchain. It's like a super-honest system where everyone can see the transactions made . There's no middleman messing up the algorithm.

Whether Nepal should legalize cryptocurrencies is a tough question. It's like deciding whether to enter a mid game chess duel. It might be fun, but we also need to be careful not to make mistakes. Whatever happens, cryptocurrencies are changing things, and Nepal has some big choices ahead. 

म पनि एकान्तमा सोच्छु अहिले के भयो ? किन भयो ? र यसो हुन आवश्यक थियो र ? जुन बाल्यकालमा हामीलाई रमाउन दिनुपर्ने थियो त्यो बाल्यकालमा किन किताबको ठेली हातमा राखियो किन हामीलाई जबजस्ती यो दुनियाँको भागदौडमा लखेटियो त ? 
धेरै सोच्दा पनि यसकाे उत्तर मैले पाइनँ । तपाईहरूलाई  केही  लाग्छ भने भन्नु होला है त  !
मैले त मेरो सुन्दर बाल्यकाल ती पाखापखेरा, ताल, छहारी र झरनाको सुन्दर आवाशमा बिताएँ तर के  मेरा भाइबहिनीले त्यो देखेका पनि छन् र ? के उनीहरूलाई यसको  अर्थ नि थाहा छ र ?
सायदै थाहा होला पनि किनभने अहिलेको  समय यस्तो आयो कि दुधे बालकदेखि  ठुल मानिससम्म त्यही कम्प्युटर र मोबाइलमै व्यस्त छन् । बाहिरी दुनियाँमा रमाउनुभन्दा उनीहरूलाई त्यही कम्प्युटरमा गेम खेल्न रमाइलो लाग्छ । योभन्दा दुःखद के नै मान्न सकिन्छ र ? 
आखिर यो किन भयो ? के  यसलाई एउटा यो दुनियाँ को बढ्दो गतिको असर भनेर बुझ्ने कि अहिलेको  प्रविधिको असर भनेर बुझ्ने त ?
यो सबै प्रश्नमा मैले मेरा बाल्यकालका केही कुरा त भन्नै बिर्सिछु । ल सुन्नुस है त मेरो बाल्यकालका केही कुराहरू ।  मैल मेरो बाल्यकाल सुन्दर र रमाइलो ढङ्गबाट बाँचेकै हुँ ।  

मेरो बाल्यकालका निकै मिठा यादहरू मैले आफूसँग साँचेर राखेकी छु । 
कति मिठा थिए ती बाल्यकालका दिन जहाँ न त कुनै पिर नै हुन्थ्यो न त कुनै चिन्ता नै ！मेरो बाल्यकाल पनि असाध्दै रमाइलो,आनन्दित  र सुखमय थियो । आफूलाई त खासै याद छैन ।  
बाबाआमा  भन्नुहुन्छ  म पनि असाद्धै चञ्जले थिएँ रे । त्याे समयमा मलाई धेरै  खेल्न, घुम्न जान र अलिअलि नक्कल पर्न  मन पर्थ्यो भनेर उहाँहरू भन्नु हुन्छ ।
केही चित्त न बुझेको कुरा भयो भने त म सबैलाई  हैरान पार्थ्याै । हुन त अलि बढी जिद्दी नै रहिछु । अरू स्कुल जान रमाउँथे मलाई चै पटकै मन पर्दैन्थ्यो ।  मलाई बाबाले विद्यालय जानु  भन्नुभयो भने म कैले पेट दुख्यो भनेर बहाना गर्थेँ त कैले के भनेर बहाना गरेर कुरा टारिदिन्थेँ ।सबै सम्झिदा त लाग्छ,  यो उमेर र  बाल्यकालको उमेरमा निक्कै अन्तर रहेछ । अरु त के नै भन्नु खै तर यति कुरा याद छ कि यदि मलाई मेरो आमाले चकलेट दिनु भएन भने पुरै संसार कै दुःखी  मानिस म नै हो जस्तो लाग्थ्यो ।
तर मलाई के  थाहा थियो र त्यो चकलेट न पाउँदा भन्दा बढी  दुःख त अहिले सानो सानो कुरामा हुने रहेछ भनेर । सानोमा घाँगर चोली लगाएर पुरै दुनियाँलाई देखाउन । म कुदेको र सबैलाई बाबाले ल्याइदिनुभाएको भनेर सुनाउनुको मज्जा नै छिट्टै थियो । के  अहिलेका नानीबाबुहरू नि त्यही कुरा आनुभब गर्छन र ?
सायद नै गर्लान् उनीहरू ले त ! मलाई कसैले सानो उपहार दिँदा मेरो खुसीको सीमा नै हुँदैनथ्यो । त्यो ल्याइदिने मानिस त संसार कै राम्रो मानिस जस्तो लाग्थ्यो  
अहिले त यो सानो सानो खुसी कहाँ गए नै थाहा भएन । खै किन यस्तो भएको होला ?  
मैले बाल्यकालका सँगालेर राखेका यादहरू यहाँ भने । केही मनका जिज्ञासाहरू थिए त्यो नि पोखिदिएँ । अब यो सबै कुरालाई एकचोटि नियालेर हेर्दा त अहिले त निक्कै परिवर्तन भैसकेकी रहिछु  ।

  
समयक्रमसँगै म  पनि ठुली हुँदै गए । मेरो व्यवहारमा फरक आउँदै गयो तर  यति सम्झिदा खुसी लाग्छ ।  मेरो बाल्यकाल  आनन्दित  र रमाइलो  थियो । 
सम्झिरहिछु, ती मेरा बाल्यकाल फेरि फर्किदिएँ !

अस्तित्वको चक्रव्यूहमा हराएर  म घुम्छु,
जीवनको सत्य जान्न विचलित म हुन्छु। 
डर छ मलाई केवल हो एउटा गहिरो सपना
न कुनै आदि न नै कुनै अन्त्य भेट्छु ।

अनिश्चित्ताको पर्दामा अन्धो म हिड्छु,
खोज्छु कहिले यहाँ त कहिले त्यहाँ,
र आफै भित्रको अन्धकारलाई सोध्छु,
के हो मेरो जीवनको अर्थ ?

बुबा  भन्छन्  घामछायासँगको सङ्घर्ष हो जीवन,
आमा भन्छिन् मायाको न्यानो सपर्स हो जीवन
र दिन्छन् नानाथरि मानिस हजारथरि जवाफ
तर जति खोज्छु, 
जति सोध्छु, 
जति बुझ्छु,
त्यति  नै आफू हराएको पाउछुँ । 

भन्छन् आमाबुबा  विषय हैन यो कुनै चिन्ताको 
बिस्तारमा ब्रह्मले मेरो जीवन कथा लेखेको
सोच्छु धागो आफ्नो हातमा नभए 
चङ्गा उडेको के मजा ?
तर भन्दिन म केही र लाग्छु खोज्न जीवनको अर्थ

प्रत्येक रात म ताराहरूलाई पछ्याउँछु
सोच्नु,
कि यी पनि थिए मजस्तै अर्थ खोज्ने जीवनहरू ?
जति सोच्छु, 
त्यति नै रातिको अँध्यारोमा हराउँछु
र शङ्काहरूको छायामा 
आशाको किरण खोजी बस्छु

कहिले सहेर कहिले बहेर बॅाच्न सिक्नुपर्छ,
हॅुदा बॅाडेर नहॅुदा सॅाचेर बॅाच्न सिक्नुपर्छ,
आत्मसन्तुष्टि र खुशी नै त रहेछ 
सबैको अन्तिम चाहाना  हजुर
जीवनमा अर्थ जोडेर नभई 
जीवनको अर्थ खोजेर बॅाच्न सिक्नुपर्छ ।

Full of darkness and far from home 
No one around and feeling lone, 
Why was I tempted late 
My lonely feeling is not being articulate?

There is darkness everywhere 
Is a menacing waiting there, 
Swiftly the shadow of night is falling 
Is a death spirit calling?

My sister asks why she is tempted to tarry
An evil spirit may smite her fast 
My mother will cry and my family will murmur 
May a thunder crust her?

Mom your weeping eyes bleeds out lovely tears 
No life after death is what one fears 
Not to waste tears crying too valueless to those 
Isn’ beautiful of sorrow like a thorny rose 

Nowadays, many students are attracted to video games. Video games have become very popular among children. Video games are played electronically on monitors like laptops, computers, mobile phones, and other digital displays. These days video games are easily available online or offline. Everyone has internet access at their homes. Similarly, we can also see that most of the students have got their own laptops and mobile phones. However, none of them seem to have realized that video games have badly affected the daily activities of students. Video games not only affect the daily activities of students but it also affects their studies, health conditions and their mentality.
Video games have mainly affected the study habits of the students. Students are so much attracted and crazy to video games that they don't focus on their studies. They are completely addicted to such games. The students who used to get good marks in the past, are getting bad marks now due to video games. They don't study much and don't do their assignments on time. They spend many hours playing video games at night. As a result, they may feel sleepy in class and cannot pay attention to their course. The concentration of students is getting lower and lower due to video games. Additionally, they don't obey their parents, teachers and elders. They are losing interest and focus on their studies. Students are not playing physical games rather than playing video games. This is how video games are affecting students' studies. 
Video games have also affected students’ health as they don’t eat in time, and they don't sleep in time. They are so much addicted to video games that they are mentally disturbed and depressed. When they are addicted to video games, they become very aggressive and they may quarrel with their parents and teachers. Not only that, we also hear news about suicide due to gaming mindset. We hear news about students’ crimes among their friends and family playing games like PUBG, and Free Fire. Students are also attracted to stealing their parents' money for video games.
Another serious problem is that many students are getting eye problems when they watch and play video games at a close distance to their sights. The fixed sight to their screen has made their eyesight poor to look at the objects at a distance. Due to which they are wearing thick glasses at a young age after spending a lot of time playing video games. Moreover, it also affects students' physical health. They don't get out of their homes and don’t go jogging or hiking. Allocating less time for exercises can result in obesity or being overweight which brings many other health problems. This is how video games affect students' lives.
They are also being socially isolated as they spend time playing video games. They don't have time to talk to their parents, friends, relatives, and their neighbors. Students are focusing on games rather than their family members. This has made them really unsocial and incapable of communicating in the real world. Such lack of communication does not make them good leaders in their fields no matter which profession they choose.
Some people say that such virtual games also have some advantages. Some gamers have also earned some money playing online games. Some others claim that such games make their minds work faster and smarter. It also increases the thinking capacity of students. But they do not realize that it has made them less imaginative and less creative. Students are so addicted to video games that they don't get involved in other activities. So, Video games have mainly negative impacts on student life.
Nowadays, young kids just want to be alone while playing video games. This issue is more severe for male kids than females. That could be the reason why males are less communicative and less practical. They become aggressive so fast when someone tells them to quit or exit the game. They don't take part in physical games and extra activities. They are so busy playing games that they don't know what is happening around them.

वि. स. २०७९ चैत्र १७ गते सुरू भएकाे एसइई परीक्षा चैत्र २६ गते सकियाे । मैले परीक्षाकाे लागि धेरै मिहिनेत र लगनका साथ पढेकी थिएँ । याे एक वर्ष आफ्नाे पढाइमा धेरै ध्यान दिएकी थिएँ मैले । 

यही कारणले गर्दा पनि मेराे परीक्षा राम्राे भएकाे थियाे । परीक्षा सकिनेबित्तिकै म र मेरा साथीहरू विद्यालय गयाैँ र गुरुहरूलाई भेट्याैँ । त्यसपछि हामी आ आफ्ना घर गयाैँ । मेरो परीक्षा सकिएकोमा म धेरै खुसी थिएँ । त्यसपछिका दिनहरूमा मिलाएर फोनमा गेम खेलें र दिनभर रमाइलो गरें । त्यसपछि मेरा आमाबुबाले मलाई रेस्टुरेन्टमा लिएर जानुभयाे । हामीले मःमः खायौं । धेरै स्वादिष्ट थियो । एक हप्ता जति म आमाकाे घरमा बसेर आएँ । त्यता म धेरै ठाउँहरू घुमेँ र धेरै रमाइलाे गरेँ अनि १ हप्तापछि आफ्नाे घर आएँ र मेराे  साथीहरूसँग घुम्न गएँ । हामी मेलामा गयाैँ । एकदमै रमाइलाे गर्याैँ । त्यसपछि हामी पार्कमा गयौं र हामीले धेरै खेल खेल्यौं । त्यताबाट फर्केर हामी रेस्टुरेन्टमा गएर खाजा खायौं । अनि भोलिपल्ट हामी कन्सर्टमा गयौं । गायकहरूको स्वर निकै राम्रो थियो । त्यहाँ पनि  हामीले धेरै रमाइलो गर्यौं । 

अब कुन विषय पढ्ने भन्ने सोचेँ । २–३ दिनपछि व्यवस्थापन लिने विचार गरेँ किनभने कम्प्युटर पढ्न मलाई त्यो सजिलो हुन्छ भनेर भन्नुभयो । तर धेरैले मलाई भने विज्ञान मेरो लागि राम्रो विकल्प हुने छ किनकि मैले त्यता सजिलो जागिर पाउन सक्छु र मैले विज्ञान छनोट गरेमा उच्च पद पाउँछु तर मैले उनीहरूको कुरा सुनिनँ र व्यवस्थापन सजिलो छ भने म त्यो रोज्छु भन्ने सोचेँ । अनि १- २ दिनपछि म र मेरो साथी एक दुईओटा कलेजहरू पनि हेर्न गयाैF। अनि कलेजहरूबाट आएपछि मैले राम्रो कम्प्युटर कक्षाहरू खोज्न थाले तर कम्प्युटर पढाउने ठाउँहरू पहिले नै सुरु भइसकेका थिए त्यसैले मैले सुरु हुन लागेको कक्षाहरू खोजेF । लामो समयको खोजपछि कम्प्युटर सिकाउने राम्रो ठाउँ भेटियो जुन एक हप्ता पछि सुरु हुन लागेको  थियो ।अनि मैले कम्प्युटर कक्षामा पनि पढ्न थाले । त्यो ठाउँ ३० मिनेटको दुरीमा थियो त्यसैले म सधैं मेरो घरबाट त्यो ठाउँसम्म हिँडेर जान्थेँ । त्यहाँ सबैजना एकदमै मिलनसार थिए।
मेराे एसइईकाे नतिजा नआएसम्म म त्यही कम्प्युटर कक्षामा सहभागी भएँ। त्यता मैले धेरै कुराहरू सिक्न पाएँ । अनि त्यतै मैले दिदीहरूसँग मिलेर बास्केटबल पनि खेलेँ । शनिबारकाे दिन चाहिँ छुट्टि हुनाले म पाैडी खेल्न जान्थेँ। फुर्सदको समयमा मैले बुनाई गर्न थालें र मफलर बनाएर आमाबुवालाई देखाएँ। उहाँहरू धेरै खुशी हुनुभयाे । 

मैले युट्युब भिडियो हेरेर चित्र र शिल्प बनाउन थालें । मलाई कला र शिल्प बनाउन धेरै समय लाग्यो किनकि मैले गल्ति गरिरहेको थिएँ। तर धेरै गल्तीहरू पछि मैले अत्यन्त सुन्दर चित्रहरू बनाएँ । 

एकदिन मैले पत्रिका पढ्दै गर्दा हिस्सानले कलेजहरूकाे मेला सङ्गठित गरेकाे देखेँ । यही बेला पेन्टिङ्ग पनि गर्न सिकेँ। मलाई धेरै रमाइलो लाग्यो । मैले मेरो छुट्टीको समयमा धेरै ठाउँहरू भ्रमण गरें र मेरा साथीहरू र परिवारहरूसँग धेरै नयाँ सम्झनाहरू बनाए । मैले मेरो छुट्टीको समयमा धेरै कुराहरू सिकें र नयाँ चीजहरू गर्ने प्रयास गरें । यसरी मैले मेराे छुट्टिका दिनहरू बिताएँ ।  

याे कुरा मैले मेराे साथीहरूलाई भने । अनि हामी त्याे मेलामा गयाैँ। त्यता मैले धेरै कलेजहरूकाे बारेमा थाहा पाएँ।  हामी कलेजहरू हेर्न पनि गयाैँ । मलाई राम्राे लागेकाे कलेजहरूकाे मैले फारम भरे र प्रवेश परीक्षाकाे लागि पढ्न थालेँ। एसइईकाे परीक्षाफल साेमबार आउने हल्ला थियाे । जति परीक्षाफल नजिक आउँदै गयाे त्यति मलाई डर लागिराखेकाे थियाे । साेमबार परीक्षाफल नआएर बिहीबार आउने भनेर सूचना आएकाे थियाे। त्याे दिनभन्दा एक दिन अगाडि मैले एसइई परीक्षाफलकाे बारेमा साेचिराखेकी थिएँ अनि खराब अङ्क ल्याएकाे सपना देखेर त मलाई त झन डर लाग्न थाल्याे। बिहीबारकाे दिन बुबा, म र आमा परीक्षाफलकाे प्रतीक्षामा थियाै । 

मैले ८७% ल्याएकाे देखेर मेराे आमा बुबा खुसी हुनुभयाे ।  म पनि खुसी भएँ । मैले मेराे आफान्तलाई फोन गरेँ। सबैले मलाई बधाई दिनुभयाे। मैले सबै गुरुहरूलाई फाेन गरेर कृतज्ञता व्यक्त गरेँ । अनि भाेलिपल्ट विद्यालय गएर सबैलाई मिठाई बाडेँ । 
मेरी हजुरआमाले मलाई टिका लगाइदिनुभयाे । धेरै कलेजहरू गएपछि बुबाले मलाई बोलाउनुभयो र मलाई विज्ञान लिन राजी गराउनुभयो किनभने हामीले विज्ञान छनोट गरेमा धेरै विकल्पहरू खुल्छन्। त्यसपछि मैले धेरै गम्भीरतापूर्वक सोचें कि यदि विज्ञान आवश्यक छ र यसले धेरै रोजगारीको अवसर बढ्छ भने म विज्ञान नै रोज्छु । त्यसपछि मैले मेरो प्रवेश परीक्षाको लागि अध्ययन गर्न थालेँ । म धेरै चिन्तित थिएँ कि मैले प्रवेश परीक्षा पास गर्न सक्छु वा सक्दिनँ किनभने मैले ब्रिजकोर्स पढेकी थिइनँ र अरूले भनेअनुसार धेरैजसो प्रश्नहरू ब्रिजकोर्सबाट आउँछन्। अनि २/३ दिनपछि मलाई राम्रो लागेकाे कलेजहरूमा मैलै प्रवेश परीक्षा दिएँ । प्रवेश परीक्षा दिएपछि म ढुक्क भए तर एकै समयमा डर पनि थियो तर केही दिनपछि धेरै कलेजहरूमा छनोट भएँ । अनि मैले र मेरा आमाबुवाले कुन कलेज रोज्ने भनेर लामो समयसम्म सोच्नुभयो र अन्त्यमा निर्णय गर्नुभयो । म अहिले डियरवाक सिफल स्कुलमा अध्ययन गर्दै छु ।

Take you back to the world
Where smile and love always won
Sadness and tears were fenced
Hate and fear never advanced

Treasure all those memories 
And people who belonged
Paths may change 
But bond will never disarranged

I hope to turn back the time 
Live a life filled with magic and surprise
Hug my mom to relief my mind
Adore every moment as a rhyme

Is it funny that every day has been the same? 
But looking back
Though it is difficult to notice the change
The time has been completely different

I was a child running across the street
Dancing, laughing and playing with all I could give
Happy days may come and go
But my childhood life will ever be engraved in soul

Saying loud things I love
Dancing down and looking above
Chatting and playing side by side
Oh, my childhood was the happiest of my life.

जीवनको यात्रामा अनुभवहरू बोकी,
हामी सँगै उभिएका छौँ । 
यी अनुभवहरू हाम्रो अन्तर्मनमा बसेका छन्,
लामाे जीवनको यात्रामा सँगै लिएर अगाडि बढ्नुछ  ।

जीवनको पाठशालामा तिम्रो शूक्ष्म मुस्कान लुकेको छ,
जसले मेरो आत्मामा एक अमिट छाप छोडेको छ। 
स्मृतिले मलाई,
उदासी र सपनाहरू बीच पुनः नजिक ल्याउँछ ।

सफलताको सङ्गी बन्न चाहन्छु म,
अगाडि बढ्न, प्रतिबद्ध छु म यो यात्रामा। 
स्मृतिहरूले मलाई,
कविताको संसारमा पुर्याउँछ।

जीवनको पाठशालालाई म अक्षरमा समेट्न सकेँ,
मेरा भावनाहरूलाई मैले अनौठो शब्दको रूप दिएँ ।
आनन्द र चुनौतीका पलहरू मार्फत,
म यी स्मृतिहरूलाई कवितामा भेट्न पुगेँ।

भावकताको पात्र होइन यो कविता,
यी साधारण शब्दमा बिछाइएको सत्यता हो । 
स्मृतिहरूलाई समेटी बनेको,
मेरो जीवनको एक छोटो सिप हो यो कविता । 

A good girl's Guide to Murder is a young-adult fictional mystery novel written by a renowned British author Holly Jackson which was published in 2019 by Electric Monkey. This novel is the first book in a trilogy and also her debut novel. The story explores various themes and genres like crime, murder, mystery, romance, and more. This novel is very popular amongst teens and has also won 'Children's Book of the Year' at British Book Awards 2020 and got nominated for other awards as well. The novel is set to have a TV series adaptation later in the year, and the production is in the making.
Living in a small town named 'Little Kilton' everyone knew of the tragedy that happened there five years ago. A high school student Andie Bell is allegedly murdered by her boyfriend, Sal Singh who later commits suicide, and that is the talk of the town. The police found the evidence, everyone knew he did it and the case was closed. But Pip sensed something was wrong, and Sal was not the culprit. Determined to prove the innocence of Sal, Pip undertakes the study investigation of the same case as her final project. Pip then joins forces with Ravi Singh, Sal Singh's brother who believes in the innocence of his brother and wants to uncover the truth. Pip takes the investigation further. She interviews various suspects and tracks the progress through her logs and voice recordings. As she starts to get closer to the truth, she is threatened by several notes asking her to stop the investigation. But will she stop when her loved one's life is in danger or will she finally catch the murderer? Too many questions that need to be answered, but all the answers lie within the book itself. Explaining the plot without spoiling too much is very difficult for this novel so I suggest the readers read the book.
The novel explores the crime and mystery theme to the peak and has the readers thrilled and at the edge of their seats throughout the book. The unpredictable twists and turns in the story, the unique characters with distinctive personalities, and the quick pacing of the book all is a plus point making the novel more enthralling and fascinating for a reader. The hard work of the author behind all the suspense build up is seen throughout the novel. Whenever the author feels like they are closer to solving the mystery, she makes sure the plot takes a complete turn and leaves the readers like me too stunned. Along with crime and mystery, the novel has sparks of comedy, and romance but deals with heavy topics like rape, drug abuse, and more. One of the unique parts of this particular novel that distinguishes it from other books is how it has various tracks, logs, recordings, entries, and images that help visualize what goes through the head of the protagonist, understand the conversation better, and switch between different perspectives easily which I was very engrossed in reading.

The protagonist of the story Pippa Fitz Amobi, alias Pip is one of the main reasons why I had a lot of fun reading the book as well. The smart yet brave little girl who's always one step ahead of everybody with her unwavering heart was inspiring and admirable to see. The character dynamics between her and the other characters are really enjoyable. The character development of each character by the end of the story is satisfying to read. 
I would love to recommend this book to readers of all ages. However, there are certain factors throughout the book which need major trigger warnings and maybe a bit of trauma for young readers to go through. The novel has depicted rape, drug abuse, murder, physical violence, suicide, and inhumane behaviors in some parts of the book which not all readers might be comfortable reading. I would recommend this book to teen readers and above who are not triggered by the following. I, as an individual reader, who previously did not have much interest in murder mystery novels, had me hooked throughout the book. The easy-to-pick-up plot, diverse and distinct characters, suspense built up, climax, and room for a sequel all had me on my toes throughout the novel; and made me not want to leave this book unfinished. The way the author deals with heavy themes and graphic content in a distinct way which feels a lot light-hearted to read was very commendable. Overall I rate this book almost a five star, and surely do want people to pick up this masterpiece and give it a try.

शैक्षिक भ्रमण आफैमा सिकाइकाे थलाे अनि भरपूर मनाेरञ्जनकाे माध्यम हाे । हुन त भ्रमण कसलाई पाे मन पर्दैन हाेला र ! तर पनि मानव हाे । 
हरेकका रूचि, इच्छा, चाहाना फरक हुन्छन्र पनि । 
जे हाेस्, म चाहिँ भ्रमणमा औधि रमाउने मान्छे । 
मलाई पनि मेरो विद्यालयले कक्षामा रहँदा शैक्षिक भ्रमण  मुक्तिनाथ लैजाने टुङ्गो भएको थियो । त्यसअनुसार भ्रमण कार्तिक २० गते सुरु हुने र यो यात्रा चार रात पाँच दिनको हुने छ भनिएको थियो । यो कुरा सुनेर म र मेरा साथीहरू निकै खुशी थियौँ र मैले घरबाट अनुमति पनि पाइसकेकाे थिएँ । अलिकति डर पनि थियाे कतै जान नै नपाइने हाे कि भन्ने कुराकाे । 

२०८० कार्तिक २० गते बिहान छिट्टै उठेर नुवाइधुवाइ गरी खाजा खाएलगत्तै बुबाले मलाई विद्यालय पुर्याइदिनुभयो । सबै साथीहरु उपस्थित भइसकेका रहेछ । 
सबै साथीहरूका अनुहारमा त्यस दिन मैले छुट्टै ऊर्जा अनि निकै उत्साह थियो । 
भगवानको नाम लिएर यात्राको आरम्भ भयो । बिहान करिब ८ बजे बसमा हिडेका हामी बीचबीचमा नेपाल को सौन्दर्य हेर्दै खाजा,खाना खाँदै नाँचगान गर्दै करिब बेलुकी ९ बजेतिर हामी बेनी पुगेका थियौ । शरीर थकित थियाे । खाना खाएर छिट्टै सुत्यौँ ।  दोस्रो दिन हामी बिहान न्वाइ ध्वाई गरि चिया खाजा खाएर मन्दिरतिर लाग्यौ । करिब ४ /५ घण्टापछि मुक्तिनाथ मन्दिर पुग्यौँ ।  
लेक लागेका कारण म केही समय गाडीमा आराम गरी औषधी खाएर मात्र मन्दिरतिर उक्लिएँ । शरीर फतक्कै गल्ने, शक्ति नै नभएजस्ताे हुने, बान्ता हाेलाजस्ताे हुने लेक लाग्दाका लक्षण रहेछन् । जीवनमा पहिलाे पटक लेक लागेकाे अनुभव मैले महशुस गरेँ । मन्दिर तथा त्यहाँको प्रकृति हेरेर रमाउँदा त्यो लेक धेरै बेर टिक्न पाएन । माथि पुगेपछि हामीले त्यहाँ १०८ धारा र २ कुण् मा स्नान गर्यौ ।

तत् पश्चात् हामीले सामूहिक तस्बिर खिच्याैँ अनि तल तिर लाग्यौ । त्यस दिन हामी तल ओर्लेर बसमा लोमानथाङ्ग जाने बाटोमा पर्ने छुसाङ्ग गाउँमा बास बस्न गयौ । 
छुसाङ्ग गाउँ पनि निक्कै रमाइलो गाउँ रहेछ । पुराना घरहरू दरबारहरूको दृष्य अवलोकन गर्नुका साथसाथै त्यहाँ बसोबास गर्दै आएका मानिसहरूको जीवन नजिकबाट बुझ्ने अवसर पायौँ । त्यहाँ साँझमा हामीले आगोको मुडा बालेर नाँचगान पनि गर्यौ । भोलिपल्ट बिहान हामी त्यहाँ नजिकैको कालिगण्डकी नदीमा सालिकग्राम खोज्यौँ । जम्मा २ ओटा मात्र सालिकराम भेट्टायौँ । त्यसपछि चिया खाजा खाएर फर्कन थाल्यौँ । बीचबीचमा रोक्दै नेपालको प्राकृतिक सुन्दरता हेर्न पनि पछि परेनाैँ । यही बिचमा मन्दिरहरूको दर्शन पनि गर्याैँ  रुक्षे तथा अरु विभिन्न  झरनाहरूको हेरेर अचम्मित भयाैँ । गाडीमानाँचगान गर्दै बेलुकी ५ बजेतिर पुनः बेनी पुगेका थियौँ । त्यहाँ पुगेर बेनीको प्रसिद्ध मन्दिर दर्शन गर्यौँ र त्यहाँ पनि साँझमा आगो ताप्दै गोलो घेरा बनाइ नाँचगान गर्यौँ । भोलिपल्ट हाम्रो आन्तिम दिन थियो । हामी पोखरा फर्क्यौ ।
पोखरामा हामी त्यहाँका केही प्रसिद्ध पर्यटक स्थलहरू जस्तै बिन्दाबासिनी मन्दिर, महादेव गुफा, शिवको मूर्ति, फेवाताल आदि ठाउहरू घुम्यौँ । 
भोलिपल्ट हामी खाना खाएर काठमाडौँ फर्क्यौ । 
आन्तिम दिन भएर होला, त्यो दिन कहिले नसकियाेस् झैँ भएको थियो ।  
काठमाडाैँ फर्कने क्रममा गाडीमा नै हामीहरू दोहोरी खेल्दै, नाँचगान गर्दै, अरु विविन्न खेल खेल्दै गर्दा समय र बाटो बितेको हामीलाई पत्तै भएन । 
बीचमा सडक आवरोधको कारणले अलि ढिलो पनि भएकै हाे । विद्यालय आइपुग्दा बेलुकी को ८ बजेको थियो । बुबा पनि विद्यालयमा मेरै पर्खाइमा हुनुहुँदोरहेछ । यात्रामा थकित भएर आएकोले गर्दा खान खाएर सुतेको म भोलि पल्ट १० बजे मात्र उठेँ । भोलिपल्ट मैले बटुलेर ल्याएका पलहरू परिवारलाई सुनाएँ र उहाँहरूका लागि मैले ल्याएको कोसेली र प्रसाद बाडेँ । त्यो देखेर उहाँहरु खुसी हुनु भयो ।
यसरी २०८० कार्तिक २० गते काठमाडौँस्तिथ विद्यालयबाट सुरु भएर  २४ गते साँझ विद्यालय आएरै सक्किएकाे थियाे हाम्रा यात्रा ।  
यो शैक्षिक भ्रमणबाट मैले धेरै कुरा सिक्न र अनुभव पनि गर्न पाएँ । यसले विद्यार्थीहरूलाई मानसिक रूपमा ताजा बनाउनुका साथसाथै मानसिक शक्ति दिएर पढाइमा अझै रुचि राख्न मदत गर्छ । याे मैले अनुभूत गरेकाे कुरा हाे । 
यसले गर्दा विद्यार्थीहरुले ताजा दिमागले पढ्न पाउने छन् । यसले विद्यार्थीहरूले नेपाल र नेपालका सम्पदाहरूका बारेमा ज्ञान प्राप्त गर्ने छन् । जसले सामान्य ज्ञान पनि बढाउने छ । त्यसैले मेरो बिचारमा हरेक विद्यालयले आफ्ना विद्यार्थीहरुको वृद्धि विकासका लागि शैक्षिक भ्रमणमा एकपल्ट मात्र भए पनि लैजाने पर्छ ।
