TAMIL NUMERALS WALL CLOCK

-

     Automobile engineer N. Bhoopathi Raja showcased the beauty of Tamil through his wife’s business, Venba Angadi.His love for Tamil was instilled by his mother, who is a voracious reader. The latest one is a Tamil numeral wall clock. The clock features Tamil numerals from zero to nine. It comes in wood as well as plastic. He says that other languages, such as Marathi and Kannada, use their own numerals on government buses in the respective states. He wants to popularize the use of Tamil numerals. He also added that the use of a clock encourages the children to learn Tamil numerals.


 He is now working on a clock that features Tamil uyirezhuthu. He said that this will enhance easy learning for the children. He also distributed Tamil calendars for free at government schools in Tamil Nadu. They also have a Thiruvalluvar-themed diary, Thiruvalluvar stickers and pins, customized Tamil name boards, and bamboo products with Tamil inscriptions.

MY ENDLESS THIRST FOR BIKE RIDES

-
Image
          I was around 4 years old when I held the throttle for the first time. It was RX 100, so I don't need to explain how I felt at that time. During my childhood days, I used to travel to my grandma's home, and if the road was empty, I would get the throttle. This is how I fell in love with bike rides.           When I was 9 years old, one day I tried to get on the bike. Somehow I managed to do that, but suddenly I lost balance and fell off the bike. After this accident for a while, I maintained distance from the bikes. But I couldn't maintain it for a long time because I don't know why I am addicted to it. Now I am an adult, but I don't know how to ride a bike. Sometimes I dream of being a rider, but that's just a dream. I used to have small rides with my dad, which I enjoyed the most, but I still remember the two accidents that restricted me from learning to ride a bike. After those accidents, I found out that I have dystychiphobia. Dystychiphobia means

PONNIYIN SELVAN - MY FIRST NOVEL

    On January 28, I came across a YouTube video related to Ponniyin Selvan. All of a sudden, I remembered my Tamil madam, who told me about the Ponniyin Selvan novel. She read only a few pages, and it was so interesting. Her words drove me to search for this novel.              I gained interest and downloaded a soft copy of the part I Fresh Floods. I know there is a difference between reading the hard copy and the soft copy, but I couldn’t hold my enthusiasm for reading it. After completing my download, I started reading the novel, and soon I felt that I was getting addicted to it. I skipped all my other works and time-traveled to the 10th century Chola kingdom. Feeling this, I deleted the soft copy because my intuition warned me that I was drowning in it. But honestly, the next day, I redownloaded it. I scheduled the timing for reading it. I became a part of the novel. I traveled with Vallavarayan Vandiya Devan. When he admired the beauty of the Chola Empire, I admired him. I went

APRÌL FÒOL

 Hello everyone. Today is the first of April, and I was not fooled by anyone. (I typed this first line and went to speak with my dad, and then I came to continue my blog.) But unfortunately, I became an April fool at 7:48 p.m. One of my friends messaged me that the professor whom I was assigned to II CA for SHE and HEL asked me to meet her after 1.30. He told me that he didn't know why she asked me to meet her, but the professor told him that it was very important. I backed up his chat and searched for the particular professor's contact, thinking to myself, Do I need to message her or could I meet her tomorrow? At this time, my friend messaged me, "Happy April Fools Day, Libi." I was like, nobody fooled me today, and thanks for fooling me and giving me enough content😂.      During school days, I used to get fooled the next moment I entered my classroom. My friends usually be like Maths sir is absent, and I was like, Oh, is it? Then let's go to the ground today. I
