Also, as you can see, I have turned this blog into a  website . My blog in totality will now mostly be centered around technology! ‣General Overview- »So, let's get started. Apple recently announced that they will be releasing a type of credit card called the Apple Card . First of all, the Apple Card is not some ordinary credit card, but it is, in fact, a one that is stored on your phone! It works in stores that use Apple Pay .

So, first of all, technology is a great achievement of mankind but is also destroying our Earth and home. Pros- Tech industries make our lives easier every day by making things that change the world. They also have social advantages. We can search the web for things you do not understand. Technology is useful for ordering groceries and books, etc. Gaming helps pass time. We do not need to do things ourselves. We can have lots of fun. It is easier to do school projects. E-Mailing a resume takes lesser time than mailing one. Without technology we would be super bored. Without technology you would not be reading this blog right now! There are lots of jobs in the field of tech. Cons- But on the other hand, it causes lots of pollution like smoke and CFCs. It also causes eye strain. Technology stops us from meeting in person. We do not read books anymore. We have stopped exercising. We have stopped celebrating festivals like we used to. We have started becoming rude, disresp...

The day I met Lucy Hawking was one of the greatest days of my life!!! I had the lucky chance of reading her books even before I met her!!! I asked how it was to write books with her father. She said that it was amazing. Her father had a disease so he could not speak and so he got a mechanical voice. I spent 10 minutes with her. Sapna ma'am, Shivani ma'am, and some other teachers were there. I was in the conference room in the senior side of my school (The Shri Ram School). She invited me to Cambridge University. Her father is the famous Stephen Hawking who works over there. I am very excited to go there and learn many new things!!! I felt very very happy!!! I went to Bookaroo festival to meet her again. When the show was over then all my books – George’s Secret Key to the Universe, George’s Cosmic Treasure hunt, George and the Big Bang and George and the Unbreakable Code were signed by her. I felt very thrilled to meet her again. Her presentation began with lookin...

Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades are the big 3, the main children of Kronos, who is a Titan. Their children caused many world wars. Hades’s domain is the underworld. Poseidon’s the sea and Zeus the sky. I learned all this from Rick Riordan. My favorite book by him is Heroes of Olympus and Blood of Olympus. It is about the prophecy of 7 coming true. The seven are – Jason, Percy, Annabeth, Hazel, Frank, Piper, and Leo. I got the Blood of Olympus on my Form Morning day in class 3 and have had the time of my life reading it! I am sharing below the Greek and Roman Gods that had captured my imagination from the book  : Greek Form Roman Form Power Zeus Jupiter Lightning Poseidon Neptune Sea, Horses, Earthquakes Hades Pluto Death, Riches Athena Minerva Wisdom, Battle, Strategies Apollo Apollo Archery, Sun, Poetry Hephaestus Vulcan Blacksmiths, Fire ...
