  Reading is like your energy booster. They boost your brain. And in the other hand, writing is your handwriting booster. Writing is useful to us in many ways; writing mails, writing homework, writing important notes are the usages of our daily life. But nowadays, everything seems to happen only with a screen-time gadget. We send mails through Gmail, take notes in OneNote or NotePad, all these need to be avoided. Soon, when the virus clears we'll all be sent to school. We'll have to write there. So maintaining your handwriting is definitely going to solve all the future problems.  PAST VS PRESENT! Many grandparents talk about that these days. 'Those days we used to write with our hands. There were no laptops, computers, tablets or phones. Only a small NOKIA phone was used. And now technology has improved. And that too, all have become lazy due to Corona, always playing games, sitting with the phone and fidgeting.' Goes my grandma. 'Those days we could go and play ou...

  Reading is like our daily appetite. We cannot have any success in our life unless we read. It may be tiring sometimes, but you'll soon see that your grammar, reading and language has improved. Each book has a new word. Even if you know the word, you'll get to learn the spelling and meaning of it whenever you read written scripts. Like, I started my own blog because I had improved my language, and now, I'm still improving and soon, it'll be better. And probably when I reach the 5th or 6th grade it'll be outstanding. And when I'm 60 years old, it'll be even better. You know that cats are cuddly and cute, But stray cats aren't, they don't even suit, You know the story of the stray cats who visit our house everyday? That's the purpose I came here, those who are interested can stay. It all started on 2017, When I returned from U.S.A to India, The mother cat who was brown and white, Gave birth to kittens who were out of sight. The baby lay on our nei...

 Hello friends!  I wasn't able to post episode 13, so it's been almost a week since golu ended, so I'm not gonna post ep13. I'm sorry friends!  Okay now, we'll meet again tomorrow! For a surprise.... And a new year episode on Next Sunday !!

  Hello! Welcome back,  yeah you know, Welcome back to Golu Season 2. And I think I said to you yesterday itself, today's about what I like about Golu.  I like the way we get dressed, a change in the food, a change in the room.  I like the look of the dolls, and also we build stairs. We children can't arrange dolls but oh goody! We can set up our own park and even build puzzle houses. We can sing our favorite songs on God and we can even roam about the street hunting for Vethallai Pakku. We get to buy new gifts and give them with Vethallai Pakku for our guests.   Navratri is actually for girls, and all the more fun. Thank you for reading through!  And remember to tune in by tomorrow evening for ep13!  Golu Season 2 ends tomorrow.  Thank you!  Bye! 

 Hello and welcome back to Golu Season 2. So an unexpected request arrived, from my grandfather. So what he had asked was to post Karunai Deivame song. It's a song on Ambal. She is a Goddess. So the song is in Tamil, now let's see it.  pallavi karunai deivamE karpagamE kAna vENDum undan porpadamE (yen) anupallavi urutunaiyAgaven uLLattil amarndAy unai anDri vErE yArO yen tAy caraNam Ananda vAzhvu aLittiDal vENDum annaye yen mEl irangiDal vENDum nAnum unnai tozhudiDal vENDum nalamuDan vAzha aruLal vENDum And with this, the song ends. So this post and the last post were just a surprise, and tomorrow the post is about 'WHAT I LIKE ABOUT NAVRATRI'.  Are we all telling Slokas everyday? Some of us do but some of us don't. Well, the ones who don't say them must make it a habit. At least once a day.  So who is ready to tell I Sloka now? Well, I am! Gururbrahma gururvishnuh gururdevo maheshwarah | Guruhsakshat parabrahma tasmai shrigurave namah || So, as you can see, thi...

  Hello guys! Welcome back, yes I know that you know, Golu Season 2. So I just wanna tell you, I feel a bit sad. You know something? My parents are putting away the dolls. But good thing, Umachi Thatha will always be there. But it's a pity the others won't!  Golu Dolls, please come back on 2022!!!! Okay now, back to bloggy mood.  Let's see what we'll be doing today. Yesterday was Vijayadashami, and today we do the things we learnt new yesterday. Like, I played Ninnukori Varnam in my violin, I sang the new exercise I learnt in music, I recited Narayaneeyam 3rd Dasakam 1st slokam and my Sister wrote some letters. So before tomorrow, that means only today, we put away the Golu Dolls. Golu Dolls may leave, but Season 2 won't.  12 episodes, that means 2 episodes more, and bye bye. That tells me, Time for me to say bye bye! Bye bye!!!

 All through my life, I wished to buy an Umachi Thatha (Sri Mahaperiyava) doll. But I wasn't brave enough to ask them. The golu didn't seem to be as bright as a star without my beloved Umachi Thatha. Many years passed, and our golu was still just like a ball of colours  but 2021 Vijayadashami, a suprise arrived.... Veebha Perima, my perima, had bought a  Mahaperiyava doll. She had called us for Golu, but unexpectedly we weren't able to go. So my Grandparents went to Veebha perima's house. Veebha Perima had given Mahaperiyava doll to them. And Pushpa Patti and Babu thatha came to our house to give the dolls. My face was filled with smiles! And that evening, after Ayutha Pooja, I came back home and started writing about it for my blog. And now, I'm publishing this and sharing it to my friends.

  Golu Season 2  Ep9 Vijayadashami Hello! Welcome to Golu Season 2, and this is the final day of Golu, Vijayadashami, the day Mahishasura was killed by Durga, the day Ravana was killed by Rama. This day is perfect for joining a new school, class or to start a new activity. Like, my sister joined a new school. Let's offer the best prayers to Goddess Durga and start this post.  Goddess Durga, the Mother of Goddess Lakshmi, killed the evil demon, Mahishasura today, and this day is still remembered today as Vijayadashami . Vijayadashami is also the perfect and most auspicious date to start something new. So the day before, on Sarswati Pooja , we don't study. And the day after, Vijayadashami, we write Sri Rama Jayam, Om, Shri, Ram or any other devotional names with a pen or pencil in our notebook we had kept for the Saraswati Pooja.  We then read at least 4 lines in a notebook. People believe that the things we read today is remembered all through life. VIjayadashami is t...

  Golu Season 2  Ep8 Saraswati Pooja Hello! And once again welcome back to the ongoing Golu Season 2. This episode features the Saraswati Pooja Celebrations, how we should celebrate It and much more. Let's start this post with a sloka, I'm sure most of you know this. Hello Friends! Here is the start point. sarasvati namastubhyaṃ varade kāmarūpiṇi . vidyārambhaṃ kariṣyāmi siddhirbhavatu me sadā .. This Sloka is usually chanted 3 times.   Now, let's see how we should celebrate this. Many people believe that on Saraswati Pooja, Goddess Saraswati Sits on thorns and Does Tapas. So we don't study, read books, write on any paper or any other material, we don't write, etc etc.. So, we put Manjal And Kumkum on all the studying related stuff and keep it on a Palaga. We also put Manjal And Kumkum on T.V, A.C, Fan, Cupboard, Door, etc.. After doing all this, we place Saraswati Dolls and photos on the 1st Step of the Golu and place a plate on top of the Plaga, where all the stud...
