IT WAS A UNFORGETTABLE DAY

 

In the 20th of February 2002 is one of the most unforgettable moments in my life. That day was the first time I went to school. I Went to my new school with my parents. In that day I felt so happy as well as a little bit scared. Because of that is there was a huge crowd in the school premise. There, I met so many new friends as well as kind teachers. 


After a few minutes our senior sisters came to us and made a line. Then they took us into our classrooms. I met a new good classmate at that time. After that our class teacher came to our class room. Among the many groups in our class, my friend and I went to a group where four friends sat. Our class teacher welcomed us very kindly. Then she started the day by teaching us a new song. After that we did several group activities. 


During our interval I played with my friends. Till the school ending bell rang, we were doing a talent show. Our teacher appreciated all of us really gladly. Time passed very quickly. I felt that there were just a few minutes that I spent at the school on the first day. I enjoyed it a lot on that day. So it was one of my unforgettable memories in my life.

THE MOON

 

The sun sets in the West

Then the moon appears in the sky

The bats stop their day's rest

And they begin to fly high


The moon shines clear as silver
And setting the whole place alight

Sometimes it's like a silvery lamp in the air

And it's like a lamp in the night


Some days it's like a plate in the sky

Also some days as a sivery bow

Some days I can't see the plate in the sky

Those days the little stars give whole place alight

NATURE

 

The environment around us is called nature. It is not a man made thing. It's formed naturally. Everyone knows that nature consists of air, soil, water, fauna, flora etc. Water can be divided into two sections. They are surface water and underground water. Rivers, lakes, ponds, streams can take into the surface water category and tube wells, springs can take into the underground water category. Rain gives us water. There are so many uses of water. For drink,  transport, recreation, domestic uses, agricultural purposes, production of hydro power etc.. are some of them. Due to various human activities water resources get polluted nowadays.


The other names for the flora and fauna are plants and animals. There are places where plants can grow well and in marshy lands they don't grow. The animals and plants add beauty as well as a value to the environment by making the earth a pleasant place to live. When we are talking about the air Nitrogen, Oxygen and Carbon dioxide are the compliments of it. We need air to live. Not only for us all the fauna and flora need air to survive. Though a living being can live without food or water for several days, it will die in a few minutes without air. 


Because of the careless activities of human beings nowadays the whole world faces so many problems. So air pollution, sound pollution, water pollution, land pollution and sound pollution rise up very quickly day-by-day. In nature all these actions are like a chain. Nature isn't pristine and we are bound to protect it. So this is the time to protect our whole environment. Otherwise we have to suffer a lot because of our careless activities. So let's join hands to protect the planet Earth.

DREAMS 🌠

 

Each and every person likes to dream about anything, what they love, what they feel, whom they love. The feeling after dreaming is different from person to person. Personally I really love to dream. It makes me happy. Dreaming takes people to achieve their goals too.


According to me, dreams are experiences we see while we are in a long sleep. There are two kinds of dreams. They are Nightmares and Sweet dreams. Sweet dreams experience a fantasy while awake. They bring happiness and pleasant thoughts. But nightmares bring negative results and they give us a sad feeling and sad moments too.


I think sometimes dreams and ambitions seem to be the same, but they are quite different from each other. A wish or a desire to achieve something is also a dream. Each and every ambition may be a dream, but we have to understand that each and every dream is not an ambition. 


Reflections or flashbacks can take us to the past. Images of pleasant and happy memories return to us as in dreams. Sometimes people enjoy themselves by reflecting on the past.


I heard another type of dreams. People called it as Daydreaming. We can see daydreaming among most of the teenagers. They really love to be in a fantasy world. So they try to add colours to their fantasy world through daydreams. Likewise people love to dream what they love, what they feel, whom they love as I mentioned earlier.




A TRIP TO GALLE

 

When I was in grade 09, I went to Gall for the first time. On that day we went to school around 4.00 a.m., because our teachers arranged to go there early. My friends and I waited anxiously for that day to come.


Around at 4.50 a.m. we started our journey. We went that journey by four busses. At first we went to Kaluthara to worship "Kaluthara Bodhiya". After that we went to see "Madoldoowa". It's a very attractive Island. Then we went to the "Sir Martin Wickramasinghe Museum". In that place we saw Sir Wickramasinghe's antiques. In this place we get very valuable educated knowledge too. I think "Madoldoowa" and "Martin Wickramasinghe Museum" are some valuable heritages in our small country. 


After having our lunch, we went to see the famous old Dutch Fort in Galle. There is a beautiful lighthouse on it. Near the lighthouse, we met a villager who lives in Galle. Then we asked him "How did your village get its name?". Then he told us in sinhala "gaala" is a place where the people keep animals during the night. A long time ago there was a famous "gaala" where people went to the South in bullock-carts. They kept their animals during the night. This "gaala" later became "Gaalla". English people called it "Galle".



After that we thanked him and we returned from there. We got a huge knowledge about Galle from that villager. Few hours later we reached our school around 9.30 p.m. We enjoyed a lot and had valuable knowledge from this annual trip. This is an unforgettable trip for me.

Dengue is one of the fatal diseases spreaded in our country. Not only in our country but also over the world. Dengue is one of the major problems in our country that still we haven't taken the correct decision to overcome this fatal disease. Eidis born in peo water and it is the vector of Dengue.


Dengue is a disease that we can't eradicate easily. Now it is becoming a difficult work because of urbanization and the population. The whole environment was destroyed because of these reasons. We can destroy this fatal disease by cleaning our surroundings. We can start it from our own home garden. Because of this  we can protect our village, country and the whole world.

A PLACE I LIKE TO VISIT

 

I like to visit so many places in my country that I never visited early. Among those places that I am most attracted to is Sigiriya. This huge and attractive rock is situated in the Central province in my country. Because of this Sigiriya rock, Dambulla town is very popular among Sri Lankans as well as foreigners.



I am attracted to this place because of its architectural significance. King Kashyapa is the designer of this rock fortress. I mostly like to see the beauty of the surrounding area in Sigiriya. Also I love to see the valuable and amazing frescoes in this place. Because of its beauty and its ancient value, Sigiriya is named as a world heritage by UNESCO.



I heard and read so many details about this place and saw so many pictures of this place. Also my friends who visited there, shared their experience of visiting this place. Therefore, I look forward to experiencing the beauty of the environment around Sigiriya and climbing the Sigiriya rock to see the views of the fort.

MY FAMILY IS MY LIFE

 

Family is a precious thing which is smoothly linked with an invaluable bond. Family bonds or ties play a major role in our lives. I think it is the deep attachment between family members and it lasts forever. The affectionate relationship between family members brings happiness, good fortune and success. 


I think family bonds arise out of living together in harmony with love, affection, caring and sharing. Still I'm learning them from  my mother, father and my sister. Actually we respect each other. We always try to understand each other in times of adversity. I think love inside our hearts is very deep.


I know that my family is always with me. Also in times of difficulty my family stands together with me as a single bundle. I think relationship between family members is the safeguard of the family. If we protect the affectionate relationships among the family members, it will bring happiness, good fortune and success to our lives forever. So I respect this bonding process in the family and I value it so much.
